CAPTAIN SEEBER BRUCE SEEBER Bruce Seeber, captain of the 1949 MTHS football team, played end and back- field en the team for three years. Captain Soeber was a good defensive man and also a shifty open-field runner. He was one of the best players on the team. A play during his sophon-ore year m the Homecming game with Washington is cne that stands out in Bruce ' s memory. A Washington player was on his way to a touchd, wn with no Metamora men between him and the goal line, but Bruce managed to grab him by the neck of his jersey and bring him down. Metamora went on to win, 6-0. Bruce was also very active and popular in many other school activities. Fifty-Nino
