cold air and muddy field, but the Indians brought home fresh Bob-cat pelts and, incidentally, a 34 to 0 victory. chapter IX facing toward the Findlay game, Fostoria entered a costly conflict with Napoleon. Both scores were Shearer's work, but the injury of Eddie Vogel in the early stanzas kept the score to a lower level than it might have been. The game was marked by roughness, Vogel, Whitman, and Martin being handicapped in the Findlay tilt by the injuries received. Fostoria made 17 first downs to 3 for the visitors, and led by far in all departments of play. VVith two regulars out during a considerable part of the contest, Fostoria yet was able to score twice for a 14 to 0 victory. cha pier X in the closing game of the season, a crippled band of Warriors engaged the Findlay tribe. The battle brought our Redskins no Laurels of Victory, but no team ever fought harder against defeat. The breaks were not for Fostoria and the score was nine to nothing, but there is more to a game than the score can tell, and courage the Braves did have. Every player, whether Varsity or Sub, gave his best for the team, and a Hghting team need never be ashamed. we could be proud of our teams' spirit if the boys had never won a game, but the record of 1933 is a high one for any team. Eight victories were the Redskins', and only two defeatsg the score in points was tripled for our Braves. closing the season of ,'33, measuring both record and men, we are proud of our Team and of our Coach. varsity lineup . .

.red. . 3. . black lllllllllllllllllllllll chapter V toledo Whitmer now advanced against the Tribe. Their advance inspired little fear in our warlike Braves, who opened ceremonies with touchdowns by Herrig and by Roberts, both on end around plays. At a later stage, Toledo took heart, and scored on a great 82 yard march down the f1eld. Naturally, this riled the Warriors, and Medicine Man VVhitman strolled to the goal line with one of Slick's passes. Not satisfied with this, the Tomahawk Tosser helped him- self to a 57 yard run and the final score of the game Fostoria 25- Whitmer 7. Though far from a close contest, the Whitmer game again gave promise of what was to come. chapter VI tiring of familiar haunts, the bold VVarriors entered Tiffin. They found the enemy waiting in ambush and our braves were quite good Injuns during the early stanzas. The closing moments of the half brought the scent of the goal posts and the third quarter found our Warriors out for blood. VVith little delay Chief Shearer led his men to the goal line. One plunge scored a marker, and the extra point tied the score. Fostoria kicked off and a few moments of battle found the Juniors holding the ball deep in their own territory. As the punt started, Bob Martin was through the line. He blocked the kick, the ball bounded to Del Roberts. Warrior Roberts immediately departed for the goal line and the extra point made a 14 to 7 score. The Redskins were on top and had no intentions of being displaced, grounding passes and smothering runs all through a hectic last period, they finished in their winning stride. Shearer's long arms stopped one thrilling Junior run, and Dick Harris seemed to reach enemy passes before the receiver started. Final score was 14 to 7. chapter VII fresh from the Tiffin victory, the Redskins fell upon Kenton. Many scalps were already captured and many more the Warriors added. The first quarter was Fostoria's, twenty points in twenty plays. Marshall scored in the second, with the entire sub line-up playing. They stayed in for the third period and experi- enced little difficulty till the quarter ended, 26 to 0. Then the fun began in truth. With the Varsity returned to the game, three scores were chalked up in the closing stanza. A speedy dash by Harris stopped Kenton's only scoring threat. Herrig, with half the line watching him, still managed to spend most of his time in the midst of the enemy backfield. Shiley was a veritable Terror on offense and as solid as oak on the defensive side. Scoring was almost evenly divided, with Slick scoring twice and passing to Roberts for another. Shearer tallied twice, Vogel and Marshall once each. Eddie Vogel's forty-five yard runback of a kick-off was another of the shining lights. The gun found the score at 45 to 0. chapter VIII the Touchdown Trail next led to Bee-Gee territory. Although playing on a wet field, the warriors lost no time in opening fire. Slippery Slick passed to Whitman for first blood. Pushing close to the goal as the period closed, the first play of the next stanza sent George Shearer through center for another marker. Fostoria then kicked-off to the Bob-Cats, received a punt on the Indian forty-yard line, and Score Number Three came after a series of steady gains. Slick chalked up the marker. Another kick-off, another punt, and F ostoria's ball on her own forty-two yard line. Shearer took the ball on the first play and departed for the Happy Hunting Grounds. Climaxing another series' of gains, Eddie Vogel scored the final touchdown early in the third quarter. Dage lllllimllllll

Like the Student Managers, these faithful supporters of the team receive but little praise. Yet what would we do without them? Rain or shine, good weather or bad, they cheered the Redskin teams. This was the first season as cheerleaders for the entire group and, as all are undergraduates, the VVarriors are assured of good support for the coming seasons. Ample proof of their ability lies in the response given by the fans. Peppy cheering is found only under peppy leaders, and the cheering this season showed plenty of pep. May our school always be as fortunate as this year, both in cheerleaders and in the team they cheer. . . season record Date Opposition Sept. 23 Fostoria High School ...... 33 St. VVendelin's. .
