They dropped their first schedule game to Wash- ington. Ed Trumper starred as left fielder, cracked the best hit, and proved him- self a good man.

With Mr. Arthur White as Coach, Cen- tral's hockey team won six games and lost six. In the city con- ference the Red and Black won their first game from Iohnson in a close contest and then weakened their stride by losing to Humboldt and Mechanics. After these two defeats the Minutemen rallied -despite adverse weather conditions and bad ice to beat Harding on their own rink. In the remaining games of the conference Central's rubber-shag- gers lost in an exciting struggle with Washington. In outside games the Red and Black fared better by beating Hamline University's var- sity and freshmen teams in three different contests and by decisively defeating the Fort Snelling Tank Corps and the St. Paul Academy pucksters. The Minutemen suffered two defeats in hard fought games at the hands of Cretin and White Bear Lake High. Swift Indians OR the first time in many years Central entered a speed-skating team in city and state competition. The team, under the lead- ership of Mr. Louis Collins, was very successful.
