During the past years the Block M Society was one of the most active -organizations in school. But this year, due to its increase in size and the numerous other school events, the Block M has assumed a less active role and become an honorary organization. Under the new Student Body Constitution the Block M Society will once again become an active organization, as it will be directly represented on the Executive Board. It is hoped that this will give added prestige to the owner of a Block HM, as well as improve the management of our athletic system. Although a large portion of the Society will be lost through graduation this year, there will be others to take their places. This year many boys received letters for the first time, and we know that these will become very valuable in days to come. E. H.-'33 FOOTBALL Our 1932 football season opened with a bang. VVe had a very good turn- out, especially by the freshmen, who showed plenty of school spirit. Vllith the experience they have obtained this year and the weight they are putting on it looks like McFarland Cougars are going to have a winning team next year. VVe weren't as successful this year as we were last, but a team can't always win, and in order to be good sportsmen you have to be good losers as well as winners. VVe did very well considering the material we had. Our first game of the season was played with Maricopa. We were defeated 13 to 0, but we had a good time playing them. VVe lost both games to Shafter, who is the winner of the Sierra League cup this year, but we think that Shafter is going to have a tough job keeping it next year. The season ended on Armistice Day, when we were beaten by Taft with a score of 24 to 0. The football team had their annual steak bake on Studebaker Hill. The food and the feminine element were furnished by the Hostess Club. At the steak bake joe Roberts was elected captain for the 1932 team. The McFarland football team wants to congratulate the seniors who have worked so earnestly to have a successful football team. These M. H. S. supporters are VVilbur Hylton, Earl Higginbotham, Clarence Robinson, Glenn Crockett, and joe Roberts. l R-'33 -32-
