Peterson, Muener, Timmerman, Harman Autumn 1945 marked the return of the Carthage Redmen to the gridiron wars. The schedule was abbrevi- ated. only five games were played. and the team was weakened by a shortage of reserve cannon-fcdde: with often 01-113,,r 15 or 16 available fer practce sessions. Yet. from the time equipment. unused since 1942. was issued in the l'lrst days of school, until the season's end. there was no ebb in the team's morale or in the spirits of their loyal and vociferous fans. The revival of intercollegiate football was a healthy symptom. symbolic: of the return of peace. Despite the team's only moderately successful Seasonls record. tw'o victories and three losses, the very fact of its presence contributed greatly to the life and color of the college scene. The 1945 squad was composed almost exclusively of Freshmen and Sophomores, who will be back en masse next September. These battle-trled veterans. richer for a season's experience, will form the nucleus of what should be a scrappy 1946 aggregation. ir--,--- + : f'1i: huh CRIMSON RAMBLER h h , , - Reverse coming up . . .

After a touch and go first half the Reds capitalized on the miscues of the tiring Grinnell team to score almost at will in the last quarter. At this game was born the battle cry You're not hurt. its all in your head which seems daSv tined to be a permanent fixture with Carthage athletic teams. Fifty-seven v ..-...-.. .c. - .- Fifty-eizht.

The torrid weather plus a vastly improved Parsons team were too effec- tive a combination to turn back. The lone Carthage touchdown came on a desperation pass in the fading minutes of the game.

Thiel 0 Q o The 1945-46 cage squad took on a full schedule and marked the return of Eull-scale basketball to the Carthage hardwoods. This years group was a hot and cold team. practically invincible when they were on , cool as the Klondike when they weren't. Thus. the seasons record of 9 wins and 11 losses tells little of the real story. for the Reds bowled over some strong teams. and bowed t0 some pretty poor ones. This year's team in its on moments treated local fans to some im- pressive displays of shooting accuracy. featured by Lefty Wilson's graceful and deadly kiss shots. the uncanny one-handers 0E john Thiel. and the tip-ins of Bill Goessel. This trio led the Red scoring. Thiel was top man with 364 points. The team was handicapped by lack of height. High points of the seaSOn were: the two-point defeat of Eureka on Ian. 19. one of the two defeats the Red Devils received in college competition: the moral victory of holding Western to a 9-point margin: and the overwhelming rout of Augustana's Vikings. our old bitter rivals. Prospects for next year's team seem very bright. Only two of this year's lettermen. Goodin and Cartwright, will he lost by graduation. The six returning lettermen, along with the returning G.1.'s. should insure a fine Red cage team next year. Fiftynnine I wWe- Sixlhf Tlmmerman. guard Redmen 47 10wa Wesleyan 45 Thiel.

Spring I946 saw the return of Carthage t0 intercollegiate track and Held competition. Track thus became the last of our war-distorted major sports to be restored to normal standing. Since the CRIMSON RAMBLER went to press, early in March before track season even got under way. it was impossible for us to report anyr of the meets or to judge very well the possibilities of the team. At this writing the presence on the campus of several prep stars and returned veterans from former Carthage track teams seem to give the Redmen good proslaects in several events. Coach Paul LaVinn released the following tentative schedule, and indicated that other dual meets might be added. 1946 TRACK AND FIELD SCHEDULE April 2627 .....................................
