'QYou can't be defeated if you won't be defeated. These words could be heard echoing and re-echoing within the halls of our beloved Alma Mater during the football season. These words typify the spirit of the team of 1949. This team was undoubtedly one of the best teams our high school has ever produced. Not only was their record one to be proud of but their individual courage and determination was such that it evoked the praise of everyone, student, faculty member, and citizen alike. The winning spirit of the entire squad permeated the student body in general, and the generous response kept that spirit at high fever throughout the season. A combination like that certainly is a great example of the motto noted above. This spirit and determination faltered once or twice but always came back stronger than ever, which can be proved by the last game of the season when our team came from behind twice to win one of the most glorious victories of the season, about which everyone talked constantly for days and will remember for years to come. Resting in the trophy cases, which contain symbols of glory of former B.H.S. athletes, are now to be seen several new and attractive trophies depicting the recognition our team so richly deserves. In dedicating an annual, the class looks for outstanding contributions toward a better Beaver High School. In our search this year this was not hard to find, and so we, the class of 1949, are proud to dedicate our Shingas to The Football Team of the Year uialsiwf J -5-
