ln rain, snow, mud and slush, the Wildcats rolled through a foot- ball season in which the good and bad were pretty well mixed. The Cats opened against Canadian Soo, and, following tradition, came home from foreign soil with a win, 10-0. With half the line crippled, Coach Bill Beach's boys faced Mus- kegon Heights a.nd their all-state halfback, Ossie McCarty. Heights won 19-7 . The Cats returned home to meet Saginaw Ar- thur Hill and start a three-game home stand. Arthur Hill's hot first half was enough to carry the game for them, 34-13. Bay City Handy came next, with AHS's Wildcats clobbering them 19-0 to roll into high gear for homecoming celebrations in whic h Midland, state champions, flattened the Wildcats 27-6, again be- cause of powerful first-half play. After that, the Wildcats played sensational ball. For the first time since Coach Beach arrived at AHS, the Wildcats beat Flint Cen- tral, 26-12 at Flint. The Cats then closed out the home season, running circles around Owosso. AHS scored 46 points in the heavy fog that covered Sports Park while Owosso failed to score. The final game of the year was a heartbreaking loss at Traverse City in freezing slush and driving sleet. At the end of the year AHS placed three players on the All- Conference team and ten on the Arrowhead honorable mention list. Jerry Wade, fullback. TY 2.6 Coach 55 9, P.
