FUUTB LL The king of all sports at Ann Arbor High is football. Line plunges, end runs, reverses and double reverses- alumni, students, and yes, even faculty--halftime enter- tainment ranging from our own first class marching band to the Scotch drum and bugle corps composed of Ypsi- lanti's fair lassies: those night games at Wines field had them all. Captained this year by Jack Dates, senior center later turned full-back, the Pioneers ended up in fourth place in the SA standings. In strictly 5A competition, the team won one, lost two, and tied one, though they won all their games played with teams outside the league. Coaches Kip Taylor and Dobbie Drake, a pair of the finest coaches in the country, were forced to watch their team lose their first game in 22 starts when the home town boys succumbed to the Big Reds from Lansing in their first league game of the season. After the final game, Art Gilles- pie, hard hitting quarterback, was elected next year's cap- tain. The first and second team records for the year are as follows: FIRST TEAM SECOND TEAM 32 Ann Arbor 12 Wayne 7 Ann Arbor 12 Brighton 7 Ann Arbor 6 Port Huron 36 Ann Arbor 6 Ypsi.
