The 1941 football team completed an ambitious season after scheduling nine games and traveling outside the valley as tar as Hemet. Three games were wins, six lost and no tied. Leading ' player of the BIythe team, and chosen Most Valuable Man , by the team at the football banquet, was Tommy Freeman, the team ' s powerful fullback. Freeman has been with the team for three years, and is a two stripe letterman. Starting lineup and first string for the Palo Verde High School team was: ends, Bowen and Bradford; tackles, Bresson and Rice; guards, Campbell and Seeley; center, Emanuel. Backfield, Byrd, Red, Free- man and Hickey. Coach Harry Cornsweet opened the grid season with a squad near 36 men. Cornsweet concentrated on the T formation and the single wing back, and to augment the backfield, he developed a group of fast ends who proved to be very sticky-fingered before the season was over. In the league, BIythe wasn ' t very lucky, winning only one game and losing three. League scores were: BIythe.. Banning 13 BIythe 6 Beaumont .-.- 20 BIythe Palm Springs 18 BIythe-.- 6 Coachella FOOT Jj Jj

Opening the 1941 season against Parker, BIythe was downed by a score of 1 3-0, by the Indians. Traveling to Hemet for the next game, Palo Verde fell before Hemet, 24-7, the only score made by Capt. Bob Campbell on a pass from Corones. In BIythe ' s next encounter with Parker, it was a long pass in the last 30 seconds of the game that defeated our team. BIythe ploughed over Coachella in its next game, putting them under with a 6-0 score. A nice pass from Corones to Clyde (sticky-fingers) Bowen, did the trick for the winning score. BIythe took the Yuma Frosh in stride, 37-0, at the game on BIythe ' s home field. Palo Verde over- whelmed Yuma from the opening gun, and never gave them a chance to score. Scoring the greatest upset of the season was the BIythe win over Needles. Rated the underdog of the game, BIythe knocked down the Needles attack, and forged on to score twice. The first, a plunge on left tackle and a 30 yard run by Tommy Freeman, and the next, a pass by Tommy Freeman, and the next, a pass from Byrd to Bowen, winding up the game, 13 to 0, and the season. Keith Rice, a junior and Letterman on the team, was voted to Captain the grid squad in 1942, suc- ceeding Bob Campbell.
