QDIIIZ QZUHKDZS When Mr. Murrill agreed to come back and coach our team this season, with the assistance of Mr. Smith, it was with the understanding that he could not give as much of his time to the team as he had in the past year. But as the season Wore on, peo- ple Who were in the habit of coming out to see us practice re- marked that they had to leave town earlier each day to keep up with Coach Murrill. l CLARK SMITH Assistant Coach HUGH MURRILL, JR. Couch Some of his employers at the office considered it a good joke when one of the men came to him for his advice on a contract, and Coach's advice Was, That's good for tvvo yards in a pinch. We do not believe that Coach Murrill will ever fully realize what a great factor he has been in our school life, for he has taken an interest not only in the football team, but in the whole school, besides.

varsity ,Football Diapers 'l' TOMMY CLARKSON fCapfa.f2'1zJ, C, Right End TOMMY takes football as seriously as skipping Class. Very few of the players were able to follow the example set for them by their Captain. CBegimzmg at Top of CHD VERNON AUSBAND, C, End VERNON played an excellent game throughout the season at end. His tackling can hardly be surpassed and, when it comes to catching passes, he is right there. We wish him luck next year. JACK BROWN, C, Halfback MISH BROWN was one of the hardest-hitting backs in high-school football. If a yard or two was needed for first down, Jack was the one who carried it for the needed distance. He also holds a record for kicking field goals. CHARLIE COUCH, Tackle CHARLIE is an all-around player. He always works hard, and can tackle like a veteran. CHARLIE has been indispensable to the team this year. BYRD CRAYTON, C, Left End TOOTIE, ex-captain of the 1920 team, and one of the star ends of the 'Twenty-One team, won much praise for the ability he showed in break- ing through the interference and getting the tackle. HTOOTIEH goes to Davidson next year with his saxophone and football record. We are counting on him to make as fine a record there as he has left at Charlotte High School. WILLARD KEERANS, C, Halfbac-If BABY KEERANS played his position as no one else could. He was noted for his broken-field running. An appreciation of his ability and leadership was shown by electing him captain of the 1922 team. Luck to you, KEERANS.,' May you lead old C. H. S. to the championship of North Carolina. GEORGE LOWE, C, Center LOWE played a great game at center this year. Though he is not very heavy, he always played a wonderful defensive game. Oh, we are not likely to forget the way he stopped the opponents. GARRETT MOREHEAD, C, Giuamcl HTUBBYH played his third year of football this season. Though as big as ever, when a yard or two is needed to put the ball across the line, just call on HTUBBYH and he will deliver the goods. SAM MCNINCH, Tackle SAMMY is a superb player. If you want a hole made in the oppo- nents' line, just call on him-he'll make it. As he is only a Junior, SAM will be back on the team next year. iii, in it , l A r u i i x 1 Mil
