REVIEW OF FOOTBALL SEASON RECALLS HARD FOUGI-IT GAMES OACI-I Kellyls call for football candidates was answered by about fifty players. Among these were eight lettermen, Shomp, Shober, Skinner, Krueger, Reed, Geehen, Thompson, and Becker. After about three weeks of hard practice, Adrian went to Blissheld and defeated them 12-0. The next week Adrian journeyed to Marshall for its first Twin Valley League game. Here Adrian met a very strong team and was defeated 44-7. Adrian played its next game at home against Sturgis, but despite the fact that they outplayed Sturgis most of the game, they were de- feated 6-0. For its next game the team traveled to Hillsdale and here they finally hit their stride and defeated the Dales 7-3. Adrian also won her next game at Coldwater 14-0. The following week a strong Albion team came to Adrian, but Adrian ran wild and defeated them 26-6. After a week's rest Adrian met her old rival, Monroe. Monroe showed a very strong defense and a fast offense and Adrian was defeated in a heartbreaking game 19-0. This ended the football season with Adrian turning in four wins against three defeats.

MEET TI-IE CHAMPIONS OON after the close of the football season, Coach Kelly started basketball practice. An abundance of good material turned out and after about three weeks of practice Adrian played its first warm-up game against Deerfield, easily winning, 48-15, Adrian next met the Tecumseh-B team, this time winning 42-13, Adrian played one more warm-up game before entering the Twin Valley League Race, de- feating Howell 33-8. The following Friday Adrian met Coldwater but was de- feated by the close score of 26-23. Adrian journeyed to Sturgis for her next game and returned victorious 28-22. Marshall played Adrian next and was turned back 31-25. Our team was handed its second defeat of the season the following week by Albion, 24-26, but secured revenge by defeating Hillsdale 40-19 in the next game. After a week of hard practice Adrian journeyed to Albion for the return game with them and was defeated a second time by them 25-16. This defeat proved to be the last for Adrian until she was defeated in the first round of the state championship finals. After the Albion game Adrian won her next four starts against Sturgis, Marshall, Albion, and Hillsdale to end her Twin Valley Season with seven wins and three defeats. Coach Kelly then entered our team in the Regional Tournament at Ypsilanti and drew Wayne for the first game. Wayne was a team that had been picked as one of the best possibilities for the Class B State Championship, but Adrian played a very fast and hard game and came out on top 23-20. The follow- ing night the team returned and easily defeated Blissfield 36-14. The flnal game for the Regional Championship was played against Ypsilanti High, and when the final whistle blew, Adrian was in the lead 20-18, thus winning the Regional Cham- pionship. The following Thursday Adrian played at Jackson against Marshall whom they had defeated twice, but this time Marshall turned the tables and elimi- nated Adrian by winning an exciting game 21-20. This ended the basketball sea- son for Adrian which was one of the most successful years an Adrian team has ever had.
