Dick Runnels and Bruce Vaughan gi fs! ,P 5 -I Yeh, Team! Fight!Fight! The Bulldogs swamped Delta's Panthers 54-0 in a contest in which all the backfield men played a prominent part. With the score standing at 1,3-O at the half,the Purple and White continued to blast away led by Mason's three touchdowns and a 79 yard Mason-to -Raker pass in the final period. The 54 point total exactly doubled the 1952. 27-O drub- bing inflicted by Delta. Besides hours of practice, another factor that might have made the Bulldogs a Winning team was the practically new bleachers and loudspeaker system. These new conveniences could very well have inspired the team to new glory. The b1eaCh.. ers with their cement block windbreak encouraged and held more spectators who, in turn, gave heav- ier support to the team. The loudspeaker was a great convenience to the spectators who were not familiar with the players, These aids were made possible by the Booster's Club. In recognition of the season, the annual football banquet, sponsered by the Swanton Commerce Club, was held in the Knights of Columbus Dining Hall on December 10, 1952. The most valuable player award was given to Jim Mason who was veryworthy of this honor . Sam Monetti presented 1 x 'V' .. 2 -LN I wi 5 as X?
