no LA D-ALMA 55 I 1932 FOOTBALL REVIEW I -By HENRY A. Scnorr ITH but three football lettermen returning this year, the prospects for another championship football team at Citrus Union were anything but bright. But with a fine feeling of cooperation and harmony coupled with a unified purpose of giving their all for Citrus, the squad gradually rounded into a very smooth working machine which continued to show improve- ment until the Flu Bug and injuries depleted our ranks and morale. El Monte, then underdogs, traveled to Cit- rus at this time and very easily won. The last game with Excelsior was for the championship, but here the Citrus boys found themselves greatly outweighed and faced a group of veterans. A few breaks for Excelsior helped to blast what championship hopes we once had. HENRY A. ScHoTT THE GAMES -By AVARD WATKINS CITRUS-7, MONTEBELLO-2 The Citrus Varsity Cougars ushered in the season by triumphing over the Montebello Oilers for the ninth con- secutive time. CITRUS 21, PUENTE-0 Playing c h am p i o n s h i p football throughout the second half, the Citrus Cougars turned back the supposedly strong Puente Indians on Puente's greensward. CITRUS-0. EL MONTE-20 Determined, fleet-footed gridiron warriors from El Monte completely swamped the flu-stricken Citrus elev- en in a disappointing upset. The scoring, all of which occurred in the First half, came as a result of perfected running and passing plays on the part of El Monte. CITRUS-14, DOWNEY-O With the addition of a few veterans, Coach Schott's recuperated Cougars took into camp the apparently weak Downey Maroons on the latter's Held. CITRUS-12, EXCELSIOR-25 With the championship at stake, two evenly matched teams, Citrus and Excelsior, met on the Pilots' field and played undoubtedly the most spectac- ular football of any league game this season. The never-die spirit of the student body and the lasting iight of the team marked the ending of our season. ROSTER fLette men and manager are starredj VARSITY Row 3: Moody, Osborn. Stratton.

, ' 5 I 4 1 4 , I ig LA DALMA 55 CLASS B FOOTBALL -By DONALD R. WATSON C Tthe SIHIT of the 1932 season the pro spects for a suc- c e s s f u l lightweight f o o t b a l l team were n o t v e r y encourag- ' ' ing W i t h only o n e letterman reporting from last year and the squad smaller than usual. DoNALD R. WATSON In October the first league game was taken from Montebello by a 6-0 score. After losing a practice game to South Pasadena, the team completed its reg- ular season without further defeats or any points being scored against it. The scores were: Citrus 14-Golden State Military 0, Citrus 0-El Monte 05 Cit- rus 15-Fremont Iunior High 0, Citrus 7-Excelsior 0. This is the best defensive record made by the Citrus lightweights, for not a point was scored against them in league competition or in a regular game. By holding El Monte to a score- less tie, Citrus gained a tie for the league championship and was awarded a trophy. This fine record was produced as a result of tea-m work and a great fight- ing spirit rather than by any star play- ers. In Bud Miller, captain, and Bill Timmons, quarterback, the team had two leaders in whom everyone had con- Hdence. Other members of the squad who made letters were: H. Brown, C. Brown, Demmitt, Evans, Fulton, Goff, Green, Hunter, Miller, Oki, Osborne, Ott, Perkins, Smith, Speer and Wat- kins. The team was coached by Mr. Watson, and Emerson Rhyner and Fred Reddin acted as managers. CLASS C FOOTBALL --By RALPH H. PRYOR ii NLASS C football started out with a bang. About J thirty prospective candidates reported the first night. While the team did not win all its games, it gave a very good account of itself. The team had prob- ably the best backheld the C's have had for years. Much will be heard from these boys before they com- plete their high school days. The following boys won their letters: Nakada, Aguilar, Potter, Lopez, Light, Molina, Iarvis, Meier, Ray, French, Ogas, Davis, Avalos. lwtnly four RALPH H. PRYOR
