26 SPECTATOR that this is their first season in Big League football. With some snappy team work and the effective punting of Quarterback Fleckenstein, the Johnstown team had an excel- lent chance to score in the first half, but failed to make the best of their opportunity. With the ball on the five-yard line the Johnstown boys lost it on the third down. Conernaugh by a well directed punt landed the pigskin well down the gridiron out of the danger zone, which proved costly to the local lads. ln the second half neither line wavered for some time, but a continued series of end runs brought our boys to the five yard line. Read plowed his way through the line for the first touchdown. Fleckenstein kicked, and the score was Johnstown 7, Conemaugh 0. With five minutes' playing in the third quarter Johnstown scored again. A long forward pass brought our boys danger- ously near the Conernaugh goal. A line plunge by Ready and Fleckenstein's placement kick, which was blocked by Rose, made the score, Johnstown l3, Conernaugh O. Another touchdown was scored a few minutes later when Maley intercepted a forward pass. Fleckenstein's atteinpt for a placement kick was again blocked by Rqse. The score was I9 to 0 in favor of Johnstown. The line-up for the game: Johnstown ' Conernaugh Maley .......,,......., ,........,..... L .

The coach feels that there is pep lacking in our activities and especially the football games and in the football parades. He said: We need more life among the rooters, and the only way to get it is to get the rooters to the games. This club is composed of twenty members, six of whom were selected from the Senior Class and the other fourteen were chosen from the lower classes. The following organization was effected: President, Spear Sheridang Secretary, Stanton Funkg Treasurer, Harry Kline. The purpose of the organization is to get as many of the students as possible and to have large crowds for the parades.
