CONCERNING THE SEASON The year of 1920 proved to be a recaller of memory. The A. C. H. S. foot ball team matching the old A. H. S. team of 1912, who held their own against Burlington, Moline and Galesburg. Like the old 1912 fighting machine the boys of 1920 were unable to secure a game with their old opponents— the Maple City. If it could have been sched- uled it would have been one of the scrappiest games in the history of both schools. The Maple City team was a smooth running machine that would have found sand in its gears playing the Alexis team this year. Herbert Brown, better known as Brownie, received a fractured arm the night before the initial game. This was a real loss to the team because Brownie proved to possess no mean ability as a foot ball player in the last few games of the season, in which he was able to play. This was the only injury to the team until the Abingdon game in which our full back (Mathers) received an injury to his knae. Frank ' s fighting determination would not let him be idle and he miss- ed only a few quarters during the whole season. Our fourteen-year-old center (Bellinger) right guard (Patterson) and right half (Likely) were the only men who played every minute in every game of the season. The season started with very little enthusiasm but soon the pep and fight were shown on the side lines at every game and overflowed to the field enveloping the players who answered with flashy and dar- ing playing. ALEXIS 117 — WATAGA 0. In our 1920 debut the squad of A. C. H. S. walloped the Wataga High School team by a score of 117 to 0. Their team had material for a good team but lacked experience. This game proved a disappoint- ment to Coach Gates as he wanted to pick the men for their various positions according to their playing but the game was such a walk-a- way that he was unable to determine their playing ability.
