Q , . r FOOTBALL LETTERMEN During the 1941 football season, Chaney had a hard-fighting team. True, the Scarlet and Gray eleven lost a few games but they were at full strength for only two of the defeats. Following are the names of those gridders who played a sufficient amount of time to earn their letters. ENDS LENGYEL-A great aid to Chaney on the offense, and an important cog in 5' Chaney's defensive strategy. PETERSON-A pass-catching wizard and a player who was continually a fifth man in the opposing backfield. TACKLES FEAR-A block of cement who could fill the gap in any coach's forward wall. DUBLIKAR-A great defense man who could charge like a wild boar. ZITELLO-A tower of strength who bolstered the West Siclers' line. SCHLOSSER-A real, hard hitting tackle, but only a junior. Watch him next year. V GUARDS CARDEN-A stumbling block for the opposing fullback. ANTONOFF-A devastating blocker and a battering ram to the opposing line. JOE CHEROL-Built like the Alamo and just as sturdy on the line. CENTER BALOG-Captain of the squad and All-City center, one of the best players Chaney ever had. QUARTERBACK SICILIANO-A field general who played a game with a badly injured shoulder and guided the squad as though providence were whispering in his ear. LOUIS CHEROL-A little man who had the heart, the courage, the ability of a man twice his size. MACEYKO-A halfback who really worried the opponents because he could really whip the pill. BRANDSOVICH-A player who was greased lightning in a reverse play, and a constant threat to the opponents goal line.

-defensive. CHANEY FOOTBALL REVIEW OF 1942 Chaney began the 1941 season boasting one of the strongest lines in its entire history. Many rated it as the strongest line in the city. The team lacked one thing, however, and that was an experienced fast-running backfleld to match the line. As a whole, the team looked very promising. This year Woodrow Wilson entered the city series race for the nrst time, thus making the titular race more interesting and the honors harder to obtain for any one team, No games were played at the Chaney Stadium as larger crowds could be accommodated at the South and Raven helds. The Wilson and South games were played at South field and the East, Rayen, and Ursuline games were played at the Rayen field. The team played eight games, winning three and losing five. Chaney chalked up a total of 66 points and had 76 points scored against them. They ended the season in fifth place in the city series. The games were attended by approximately 43,800 people. The following is a brief summary of each game. September 19-Chaney 20, Ursuline 0. Chaney got on the beam by taking the measure of an inexperienced Ursuline eleven. Plays were completely dominated by the Scarlet and Gray. Touchdowns were made by Lapushansky, Papach, and Balog. September 26-Chaney 0, Wierton 13. Chaney defense held down the power- ful fleet-footed Weirton team to a low score. The Virginians were kept away from the goal by Fullback Papach's long punts, five of which averaged over fifty yards. October 3-Chaney 21, Rayen O, Led by Fullback George Papach, the Chaney mudders walked over Rayen's eleven amid a downpour of rain. Virtually the entire encounter was played in Rayen territory. The night was made to order for Chaney's powerful attack and stonewall defense. Points were made by Papach and Maceyko. October 10-Chaney 12, Farrel 7. Scarlet and Gray's line cracked as they triumphed over Farrel in a thrill-packed contest. Chaney, opening up in the second quarter, registered two touchdowns and made nine of their ten first downs, 'Papach and Brandsovich scoring. October 24-Chaney 6, Wilson 7. In the closing minutes of the last quarter, Clayton of Wilson managed to slip through for a touchdown and an extra point. 'This game was Chaney's morale breaker of the season. October 30--Chaney 7, South 20. South pushed Chaney further down the 'ladder as a result of almost perfect blocking and a strong line. The Red and Gray was driven down the field until the waning seconds of the last quarter, when by a series of passes Mike Peterson scored artouchdown. November 7-Chaney 0, Memorial 13. Memorial's speed ball carriers out- raced the Chaney men in several long dashes which proved effective, Chaney 'fought hard to the end. November 20-Chaney O, East 16. Practically the entire game was a punting 'duel between rival fullbacks. A steady downpour of rain made it almost impossible to run the ball. The Chaney eleven was unable to put the East ip ayers o 17' 3 Wi My - 1 I 'Y- ' f 1' Page Seventy-Nine 'F N ,A V V - f rg, 1,117 ls, 1' W

BASKETBALL REVIEW The basketball season is over now, but the memories of a few exciting moments linger on. The past season, although it proved disasterous, was one of the most exciting in Chaney's short history, Several games were either won or lost in the last ten seconds. This year saw a new idea introduced to Youngstown basketball. In the past every team played its home games in the city series at home, but this year all city series games were played in triple headers at the South High Field House on Tues- 'A' Pc1geEighty-One i'
