'THE .UINER PAGE FIFTY'-ONE OO T BA LL 'l'.the beginning of the season everything looked bright tor a winning team as there .were several letter men back and a large number ot green, but willing as- - I -s'7- - Q 1 'ie pirants, who under the coaching of M. T. Terrel, soon t- developed into real stars. 1922 has been the most successful year in foot- ball at B. H. S. for a long time, but we expect to attain a greater honor in 1923, as practically all the letter men will be back. This will mean a team of seasoned players with what new men that come in added to it. This will surely make a winning combination. PLAYER s JIM BROTHERTON fCaptainj -Halfback Big-un is an alround man both on the offensive and defensive. He is a. good ground gainer through the Zine. GYLE BRYANT+Leftend Gyle has been a regular for two years and has proved to be a very valuable man on the team. He is always in the game and on his job. He was elected captain for 1923 and we wish him the best of luck, since it is his last year in B. H. S. JOHN BRAZIL-Center - ' Sippy. one of the oldest men on the team, never missed a minute of play the whole season. He always passed the ball true to the opened up. He was a veritable demon on the defensive. GEORGE COLE-Quarterback Buggar is speedy for the end rims and he has the punch through the line. He is very valuable to the team on account of his ability to get off plays without delay and confusion, and by the gains made by his educated toe. ALBERT NEIL-Guard Dogbite, the main stay of the line, was a new man knownig nothing what- ever of football. He has developed under Coach Terrel into a real star, both on the offensive and defensive. Much is expected of him next year. EDWIN COLE-Halfhack Ikey is an excellent ground gainer around the ends and through a broken field. He is also a hard hitter on the defensive. LAMBETH CONNEVEY-End Cy, the lightest man on the team. was a demon on the offensive, a sure tackler and a good man to go down on a kick off, punt or pass. JAMES PRICE-Fullback Cow is the plunger for the backfield. VVhen there is need of a few yards on the last down they always give it to Cow and he takes it through. I-le also made many gains by his long and sure passing.
