THE TOOT 27 .10 Football Canastota’s football season for the year of 1939 was one of the best that we have had in recent years. Coach Schmidt entered the school in the Upper Mohawk Valley League in the follow- ing: football, basketball, baseball and track. The league in football consists of New Hartford, Whitesboro, Hamilton, Clinton, Cazenovia and Canastota. The team is about the lightest Canasto- ta has had in years. It started the season as inexperienced men with the exception of a few. Canastota lost their first game to Onei- da for this reason. The team having once been under fire rallied and defeated New Hartford, Hamil- ton, Cazenovia. Canastota was defeated by Clinton and Whitesboro who captured first place. Canastota, having been beaten out of first, took second.
