' 1 A nice run and a nice fnclzle. PHILLIPS Opening the league schedule with Wendell Phillips, Cal staged a game which proved to be a battle to the finish. Phillips scored their lone tally in the fourth period, but failed to convert the extra point. Undaunted, Cal came back strong and had the ball within i-nches of the goal line when the final whistle was blown. Score 6-0. MORGAN PARK The Spartans undoubtedly played their finest game of the season when they faced last year's city champs, Morgan Park. Late in the first quarter Humphreys scooped up a blocked punt and escorted the ball 30 yards to a touchdown. Piper then booted a neat one through the uprights for the extra point. Going into the fourth period with the score 13-7 against them, Cal staged another rally with Piper starring. Using a ten-man line, Piper plunged over for the second touchdown, but failed to make the extra point when his kick was blocked. The game ended 13-13. PARKER The following week Calumet met her traditional rival, Parker, at Shewbridge Field. Lacking the spirit shown previously and being somewhat weakened by their last game, Cal was defeated 13-0, although Piper's effective 'punting served Cal well. In this game ma-ny new men played for the Spartans, and made a very creditable showing. Halfing a power play flwrongb the line. l -was g 1 , .sz 3. rl.. .Q , .. Page 112

Although they were inex- perienced, they had the same Hght that has always marked Calumet's teams i-n the past. Facing a tough schedule with light and inexperienced material is not an encouraging prospect for any coach, but Eddie Dygert, Calls cagy grid mentor, faced it bravely. LINDBLOM With less than a week's practice, Cal opened the 1933 season by facing Lindblom at Normal Park. It was a good game, but Lindblorn proved to be too strong. As a result the Spartans finished on the short end of the score, 13-O. ST, LEO In the next week, Cal had to face St. Leo, a team which later proved to be one of the strongest teams in the Catholic League. Having had four more weeks of practice and the advantage of superior weight and experience, St. Leo easily won over the Spartans, 30-O. CULVER In traveling to Culver to play the Cadets, Cal clashed with one of the strongest and most sportsmanlike aggregations they have ever met. Despite Cal's attempts to score, they were repulsed at every move and Hnally defeated, 25-O. Tbafs slapping flwm I 'L' is! V' 2 ,: - ? ' . .J Page111

Although greatly outweighed Cal's running attack functioned well. But our boys were unable to cope with the Green and Red's most effective attack, which scored three touchdowns, to defeat the Spartans 19-0. Moose McCann was badly cut in this encounter. HYDE PARK With six losses chalked against them, Cal's eleven rallied to defeat the powerful Hyde Park eleven 7-6 in a post-season charity game. Although outweighed considerably, Cal's team demonstrated the well known theory that brains can beat braw-n. Captain Kleb scored for Cal and jim Piper converted the point. Cal finally achieved a victory to close the season. FOOTBALL BANQUET During a meeting of the football team after the close of the season the players agreed upon a banquet.
