THE BUZZER 1926 THE SEASON OF 1925 1 Under the vigorous coaching of A. W. Rader and the inspirational leadership of Captain Saefkow, the football team of 1925 gave Euclid High School students and patrons a full season of real sport. Euclid's line of defense was generally conceded to be one of the strongest in the Greater Cleveland Conference. Definite evidence of this is shown by the fact that the opposing team seldom scored a touchdown. In offense, Euclid showed up equally well. Le Breton, heavy line-plunger, Bernie Sadosky, the fleetfoot, and john Korencic, the sure and steady, deserve much credit for the size of Euclid scores. The season started with a landslide victory in a non-conference game with Mayfield. The first conference game, with Shaker Heights. was a big disappointment, but that defeat was a stimulus for the splendid work done during the rest of the schedule. The boys were not defeated again until the very end of the season, when Euclid lost the Greater Cleveland championship to Rocky River. john Korencic, Euclid's quarterback, played in every game and wasghigh point scorer, having a total of 61 points. Three players made the mythical eleven: Korencic, all-scholastic quarterbackg Le Breton, fullbackg and Phypers, tackle. Sadosky received honorable mention. Five letter-men will be lost to the team this year, but good football material is waiting to be developed. john Korencic is captain-elect for 1926.

Sadosky All-around athletes are the rule rather than the exception at Euclid Central, as is shown by the fact that the entire basketball team had made enviable reputations for themselves during the football season. Scarcely had the Rocky River mud dried on the football suits, before the boys donned basketball outfits and plunged headlong into a successful cage season. The boys played steadily and consistently this year. They won ten out of thirteen games, maintained second place in the Greater Cleveland Conference, and acquitted them- selves splendidly in the Berea tournament, staying in through the third round, when they were eliminated by their old rivals, Rocky River. john Korencic was given a position as rear guard on the Greater Cleveland Con- ference mythical team, while Paul Kurtz was given honorable mention as center. Only two regulars, Hattendorf and Kurtz, will be lost by graduation, so Euclid fans can look forward to a successful 1927 season under the leadership of John Korencic, captain-elect.
