NIP J 1 J J' -:.l.. ' E 1q l. U75 Roulflrr D1xoN C XYcight. 150. Right Tackle. Height, 6 ft. l1ob's first year was a great success. Not only was he a member of the first eleven but he was our only representative on the All-State football team. He was a hard tackler. always causing the man he hit to be in no hurry to get up. A sure play in any game was off Bob's tackle. The team will certainly miss him next year. Tomlin' CL.xRKsoN CX CC'aptain-electj NYeight, 137. Right End. Height, 5 ft. 7 in. Tail End is around here when it comes to playing football. He tackles low, clear, and hard. NVhen an end run is made around his end the man that makes it has some good interference. Many a time he entertains himself by dumping the interference and then getting the man with the ball. Tommy was laid out of two games with a bad knee, but he made up lost time when he went in again. He was elected captain of the team of '22 and herels luck to him and his fol- lowers. GARRETT MOREHEAD CM Left Guard Weight, 150. Height, 5 ft. 7 in. Tubby,' looks slow in a football game. but you'd be surprised. He makes it a point to get in every play no matter where it 1s. He doesn't know what it means to let a man go by. He is a hard and clean tackler -never hits above the knees. After he hits a man twice in a game a new man is needed. When he is set to break up a play 116. IS unmovable. He has two more years at high school and should develop into a wonder- fully live man. -1 107

NIP -sal .K X , I, l Oi.1x'1f:R Rom: 'C ' XYeight, 145. Left Tackle. Height, 6 ft. This was l3's Hrst year in football and if he makes as good in his future years as he did this year, another college star will come into the limelight in about two years. He had the fighting spirit that it takes to play football. XVhen it comes to dumping interference and getting the jump on the other man he is hard to beat. He is a sure tacklerg he always leaves his feet to make a tackle. The team will surely miss him next vear. ANTHONY EDDY C Wieight, 120. Halfback. Height, 5 ft. 8 in. Tony came to us from Fishburne, where he was a member of the squad. Tony doesn't look like trouble but in a football game you'd be surprised how much trouble there is in him. He was in every playg he tackled low, clean, and hard. His Weight was the principal thing that kept him from making the first eleven. He was especially good at end runs, giving many a back-field man the scare of his life. HUGH BOYER C Weight-. Left End. Height- When it comes to catching passes Hughie can't be beat. The fellows all said he had Hjew blood in him but whether he had or not he sure caught some of the hardest passes ever thrown on a football field. When he was on the side lines he played as hard as if he were in a game. He noticed where the enemy was making her gains and when he got in he was sure to stop them. He will run somebody hard for a regular berth next year. 109 L-l+:'.c.3 '- -.
