'fret are WgI'S.3 Wein - ONTINUING a three game winning streak started last year, the Dolgeville Blue Devils began the 1950 football season by shutting out last year's champions, West Winfield, 32-0. Off to a good start, they kept right on going by next defeating Richfield Springs, 25-7. During this game, excellent play by Cool and Weinschreider, tackles, D. Smith and R. Metzler, guards, Rickard and Nagle, ends, and MacCarthy, center, kept the opposition's score to a minimum of 7 points. Several touchdown marches were staged by Dolgeville,,one of which went 70 yards for a score. Two excel- lent punts by Cuda, in the latter part of the game, kept the opposition in its own territory. In the following game with New York Mills, the Dolgeville Blue Devils rolled to a 27-0 win. Going on to Morrisville, they took the Midstate Conference Title to the tune of 40-0. Pat Pugliese, halfback, ran more than 90 yards for a touchdown in this game. Nick Miller, the other halfback, also ran circles around the opposition, coming up with two touchdowns and four extra points. After winning the title, the Blue Devils finished a very satisfying season by defeating Canajoharie, 60-0 with Pugliese and Miller each getting three touchdowns. In addition to winning the championship, our boys were rated the best defensive team in the area, which includes Little Falls, Ilion, and Glovers- ville, having had only seven points scored against them. On the offense, led by Miller and Pugliese and sparked by DeCarr, our quarterback, they were excellent also, having scored 184 points against the opposition. While the Blue Devils unbroken string of eight victories is an excellent record in itself, the fact that in seven of these victories the opposition was held scoreless makes the rec- ord something of which to be extremely proud. 33

Q-?1'TL- HE Blue Devils went right to work in the first game of the 1950 baseball season, and kept on moving until they were handed their first defeat by the Giants of St. Iohnsville, 8-6. The Bynonmen looked as though they might be out of the running for the league title when they lost the following game also. At this point, Dolgeville was in second place in the M.M.V.I. League, with 4 -E a standing of two and two, while St. Mary's of Little Falls was in first place 333 ,mx with four wins and no losses. However, the Blue Devils came back to chalk up S YQ, a win over the league leaders, thereby showing the rest of the league that they N if W were not done yet. 5 'ttyl From there in, Dolgeville had to win all the remaining games and had to - beat St. Mary's for the last one in order to win the championship. That they a1--- - - most did, loosing only that final game to St. Mary's. The team looks good for 1951, with the entire starting team returning, and Q9 a second year coming up for most of the pitching staff. In the 1951 season, there? ga K is a good chance that they will win the league title that they lost by such a nar- 4 'i J row margin in 1950. 0 Home SCORES Away KS OPP DQ-S OPP 7 4 Fort Plain 6 7 lg 5 Canajoharie 14 5 Q' Q 8 St. Iohnsville 7 2 :tg 8 5 St. Mary's CQ 4 9 :W 9 354 -X f fill: 9 l K tx -s Q A 'I' rx-L' uw.
