JACK SELBY Jack - Guard This was Jack's first year on the varsity and he was one of our most valuable replacements in the line. He is a senior. CHARLES HIGGINS Chu.ck - Guard This was Chuck's third year on the varsity. Chuck is hard hitting and likes things to be rough. Next year's team will certainly miss his excellent defensive playing.

He caught that ball and made many first downs. He stopped many of the opponents' dangerous end runs. CAROL TUCKER Cla1k - End Clark was an excellent defensive end. He ruined many of the opponents plays by spoiling their interference. He won a letter in his Sophof more year and was in there climaxing his football career in his Senior year. BGB STRANG Bingo - Back Bob was one of our fast backs this year. He is very good at taking that ball for long runs. This is Bob's last year. JACK ERDENBERGER 'Tank - Back Next year's football captain has the nickname Tank, because he is as hard to stop as a tank. He will be back next fall to lead the team to victory. Joe STONER Happy s Back Joe is a backfield man who needs more than one man to stop him. Next year's team will miss his line plunges which were good for many yards during the season. JACK BRICHTBILL M1ck - Back Mick was the quarterback who called our touchdown plays. This was Mick's second year on the varsity. Last fall he made a good guard and this year an even better backfield man. JACK CLECKNER Jack - Tackle This was Jack's first year on the varsity. He is very fast and hard hitting. He will also return next year to put across some touchdowns. BOB THOMAS Tommy - Back Bob is small but he has plenty of drive and speed. He did a very fine job of passing. Bob also did a good job of calling plays. VVIAYNE Rose Bud - Tackle Bud was the big fellow on the team. His dc' fensive playing stopped those plays from coming through the line. Bud is now in the United States Navy. GEORGE FIKE Ga'rte1s - Tackle A senior, George played for his first year. He was a hard worker, who made up for his inexperi- ence by really applying himself. JACK CLECKNER- Tackle This was Jack's first year on the varsity. He is a big fellow now, so wait until he is a senior. Jack likes it rough because he has more .fun when it's tough going. Keep your eyes on Jack for the next two years. LARRY MADDEN Mole - Center Larry was the team's only center this year. He played every game and liked it rough. Usually a center is the heaviest man, but Larry makes up for this in height. He will be back for next year's team. WALLY SNYDER Wally - Manager Wally is the one that deserves very much credit. He did a swell job of taking care of the team. Page Seventeen
