The Henry avenue practice field was filled with the yells and groans of fifty young aspirants who are hoping to help Beloit Catholic high school to a winning season. These boys sweated and ached for three weeks before school opened and every night during the school week. The typical morning prac- tice began at 9:30, after fif- teen minutes to half an hour of individual work. First boys took one lap around the field. This was followed by cal- isthenics. Then came the “agility drills” with the line men and comparable work by the backs. A little contact or scrim- mage ended the morning prac- tice at 11:00. Football players could rest at this time until 2 p.m. when it was time to dress for the afternoon practice. This practice was comparable to the morning one and finished at 4:30 p.m. Sports Notes Best wishes to Mike Mowers who broke his wrist in football practice. You'll be missed in 'the line Mike, but just come through in the basketball season. Jr A team is only as good as its backers—Get out and support the team at games and pep rallies. It could mean winning the game.
