SOCCER TEAM The soccer team passed a successful season under the able leadership ot Coach Wenner and Captain Bill Mannix. As in ’39, the team’s forward line was one of the smallest of the league, but fight made up for size proving the saying, “It isn’t the size of the man in the fight, but the size of the fight in the man.” Not only a team, but many fast friendships were formed, which after all, are one of the most important reasons for having school teams.
