FOOTBALL CENTRAL has had a Spring Football season this year that has proved very inter- esting. Any boy was eligible to play on this team provided his grades were acceptable, that he was not out For track, and that he was not a graduating Senior. To date, the team has only played one opponent, Kemper, in which the game ended in a 0-0 tie. A return game is to be played with them ontheir Field. lt is said that the Eagles showed up much better against Kemper than they did last Fall. This might have been due to the elimination of some players and the eligibility of others. At any rate, the Eagles still showed room For considerable improvement. Their playing lacked the sparkle of inspired Football. lt was entirely too mechan- ical, as it they were robots playing a mechanical game. The thing the Eagles need now and have needed the past two seasons is not more coaching and instruction oi which they have plenty, but a bit of sio'em and Fight to course through their veins. .No team will ever become a championship one that is content and even partially proud of continuous defeat, and we speak not of Final scores but of the entire game and all the things that go to make it up. With the advent of Spring Football to the Central campus this year, we look Forward to a season this Fall that will bring forth the elements in the Eagle teams that have been sadly lacking For some time. RINKEYDINKS THlS group of players called the Rinkeyclinks is the group of men not eligible For a berth on the First string of players. They are the unsung heroes who re- ceive the batterings ol the regular team to help condition that team to play against other schools. One game was played last Fall between Central and Moberly Junior College, in which the Rinkys lost by the score of 6-0. This team was coached by Raymond Mclntyre and Gale Earp, who also aided in the instruction of the First team.
