Seam .Betimmen JIM LITTELL-Captain of this years team, Tiger was a bulwark in the line both on the defense and offense. His sparkling action in conference play brought him a first-team berth on the All-Conference team. His all-around play gave him a third team rating on the I.D.P.A. team and honorable mention on Jack North's all- state team. CHUCK DENNING-The offensive spark in this year's backfield, Chuck led the team from his quarterback position and ranked third in the conference scoring. He piled up an enviable record by being placed on the first All-Confer- ence team, on Jack North's fourth all-state team, and on I.D.P.A. honorable mention list. Den- ning was considered one of the states outstand- ing backs. JOE KRENZ-Operating from his right guard position, Dynamite turned in a creditable per- formance an all the seasons games. His spirit and aggressivencss proved to be a determining factor in many contests. He received honorable mention on the all-conference team. BOB CLIFTON-Six feet three inches of rugged end could well describe t'Pinky' Whose body- shaking blocks set up many touchdowns. An iron man, he could be depended on in every game for stopping end-a-rounds. His play garn- ered him honorable mention on the all-confer- ence team. BOB CASE-The locals plunging fullback, Bob piled up enough yardage during the year to give him a position on the third all-conference team and a good round of cheers from the B.H.S. sup- porters. Playing an outstanding game against Perry, Bob broke away for several long gains. JIM JOHNSTONE-Although hampered by in- juries, Jim was a Valuable asset in our backfield. During the season he converted seven extra points out of ten attempted, and accounted for a great deal. of the yardage gained on the ground. ELDON DAHL-Even though a latecomer to the squad, Bud proved he was first-team ma- teiial and was a mainstay of the line. A separat- ed shoulder suffered in the Ames game kept him out of the last tilt, but up to that time he was in every game. DICK LITTELL-Dick was one of the hold- overs from last year who proved himself a cap- able player time and again. The Littell b1'other combination was one of the sore-spots in our opponents' offensive with Tackle by Littell ringing out many times over the public address system. IBOB LEIDEN-Strong on defense and on the receiving end of many passes from Denning, Bob was a stand-out at his end position. In the Grin- nell gamq he captured a 45-yard pass and a 30- yard pass which set up touchdowns. In the other games Bob was credited with a good deal of yardage from passes. GENE BROWN-In almost every backfield there is a star, but there also is a player who does the blocking that makes this starring pos- sible. Boone's blocking back was Swede whose coach rated him as one of the best. This talent gave him honorable mention on the all-confer- ence team,
