Cliff Farquhar, Captain and full back, played his last year ably and is admired throughout the conference for his wonderful ability to plough through the line, and for his sure tackling on the defense. Gib Bernard, quarter back, was a heady player and always had the opposing team wondering where the ball was going next. Gib was an ex- ceptional good open field man. He also played his last year with F. H. S. Rich Jorgensen, half back, was always good for a gain through the line and a sure, hard tackler. This was Swede's 'second year to win a letter and his Senior year. His place will be hard to fill next year. Howard Yocum, half back and end, played his second year for F. H. S. and was always on his toes on either defense or offense. Earl Todd, half back and end, played well and always was the fastest man on the field. He was a Senior and surely will be missed next year. Carl Lipford, tackle, was a splendid tackle and all the backs in the conference dreaded running his side of the line, and when it came to mak- ing holes to run through, Sleepy alwayshad his man out and was down the field for further interference. Sleepy was a Senior who made his mark. Robert Portenier, tackle, filled his place well and our backfield liked to run on Bob's side of the line because they were sure of a hole to run through. Harold Sears, center, could pass the ball better than anyone in the Conference and very seldom did he get a bad pass to his backs. Would that there were more tall Seniors like Bob and Harold. Dave Price, guard, was a hard and sure tackler, and was feared by many opposing backs. We'd give anything if Dave had another year in which to sprint across the iield as he did at Simla. Although this was Loyd Gaskill's first year he played a good game at guard and will be a great asset to the team next year. Bill Jorgensen, end, is the only Freshman to receive a letter and played consistently for his first year. He will be a big man in future football here. The other men to receive letters were Jack Reynolds, Weldon Todd, Alfred Dorsey, and Paul Collier. All but Weldon will be back next year. No all-conference team was selected this year, but we feel confident that if there had been one, F. H. S. would have been ably represented. Football season ended with a banquet given by the parents of the Senior boys, Mr. and Mrs. Gammill, Mr. and Mrs. McKinley, and Mr. and Mrs. Ereffeisen, at the Bernard home. Thus the season ended as happily as it egan. STANDING 1928 Per Cent Hugo 1000 Flagler 7 50 Simla 500 Limon 250 Burlington 000 Year Games Won Lost Opponents Points F.H.S.
