So familiar has it become to people that the phrase KiIroy was here is now an old saying, Not only scrawled on walls, blackboards, and desksg but, on ships at Operation Crossroads, on pyramids in Egypt, on the torch of the Statue of Liberty, on the sides of elephants in circuses, and now it is predicted that if man ever lands on the moon he will find that Kilroy was there firstl But during all thesetravels, Kilroy has managed to get ahead of everyone and stay out of sight. So it is with great honor and distinction that we now say Kilroy IS here l , We hope that this Kilroy edition will for many days to come bring back a golden year in your C-olden Memories. If this purpose is accomplish ed, only then will the staff feel that this little visit with Kilroy, the man of wonders, was truly worth while.

He was recog- nized all state for his excellent punting. As co-captain and Decatur's bid for All-State selection, we're looking forward to Bobby's having a very successful year in 'l947. GILBERT THRASHER-Gilbert is next year's co-captain who came back from the Navy and played excellent ball. He was well liked by his teammates and possessed the courage which it takes to win football games. IOHN BRASWELL- Bras Stepping into the regular position at center with the iniury of Phillips, Bras filled the position well. He was a good line backer with plenty of scrap. RAYMOND BROOKS-Brooks is the fleet-footed boy who excited the fans in the Crossville game with his good broken-field running. With his experience in '46 and a little more weight, he should develop into a fine player and a constant threat to every l947 opponent. Down 2 ATLEE PHILLIPS- Dopey. The tougher the going the better he liked it-that can be said of Dopeyf He earned his center position by hard work and this hard work made 'him hold the respect of ,his fellow players. Misfortune overtook him in the Huntsville game and from his hos- pital bed he cheered the Raiders to victory. Top, Left to Right: DORWYN BRASWELL- Skunky, He was a tackle who had the size and ability to block and tackle hard. He was a scrapper and seemed to like it best when the going was hard. BILLY IOE TERRYA-Although Billy joe did not play a great deal this season, he never quit trying. He is due credit for he gave the regulars some of the rough times they receive in ball games. ELMON TERRY- Elmo Elmo was a returning C. l, who was rough and tough. Although he was bothered by injuries throughout the season, he played the ball of which he was capable. FREDDIE HORN- Old Man Horn was the big boy who was always there. Rough and tough as he is, he filled many holes where an almost certain gain was coming. Down 2 AUBREY FREE- Squeak Squeak was the heaviest end 'to ever play on a Raider team. He proved he could use this weight by throwing the enemy for many losses. He received a broken leg in the Bessemer game but our guess will be that he'll be scrapping for the Red and Black in I947. 6 xo 3 41 38 5 i 59'- ST Row L 4, we my ff f r x Tomm Tu P me Ratluff L rp M wc mx 1 'Je wax L mwm r a Ca mf me Lent B lly 0 rr mem Hex r 1 u oac L r'ee s ups he 1 Pun dr mom Terx Dorvvw Brasvweli Auf re F ee Cie rl ex LVN Q Q L nw x mu I son hw B dsx ell Weds wow umm 4 New Coach Fu er FOOTBALL SQUAD or Q wf wed Ream L mm QL ,r bo Q haf 11 WWVYWL x er EV O I Ra er fight P x K 'or mme Shnff mari JI ur mwght You Chance WH Come and cor' e on the rum e ,Our are' ts vvu Xe m T ere Q mx Cha les jones I af!
