FOOTBALL The next game of the season was played on the local gridiron against the St. Leo Lions. It resulted in a hard fought, heartbreaking game with the Maroons coming out on the short end of a 27 to 15 score. The next week the Crosby squad traveled to Bottineau and dropped a 13 to 6 decision to the powerful, hard-driving Braves. The following game found the Maroons facing their traditional rivals, the Kenmare Honkers, on our home field. The Honkers were easy prey for the local boys, however, with the Maroons on the long end of a 34 to 0 score as the final gun went off. The final game of the season was played against the powerful eleven from Minot High of Minot on the local field. The Minot squad, out for revenge after suffering their only defeat last year at the hands of the Maroons, ran rough-shod over the locals, 40 to 0. Crosby also placed several men on the first and second allconference teams. They are as follows: First All-Conference Team John Allen - Quarterback Cal Andrist- Left Guard Myron Bothun - Right End Elling Lindseth - Honorary Halfback Second 11-Conference Team Charles Barrett - Right End Raymond Paulson - Right Guard The Maroons lose co-captains,Johnny Allen and Cal Andrist, Charles Barrett, Raymond Paulson, Fred Hattel, Milo Lokken, Elwood Nordstog, and Allan Smith through graduation. £ $ “Athletic sports have physical values but these values pale almost into insignificance when compared with those greater values which come from athletic sports at their best--values not only of higher significance to the individual than physical prowess or a healthy body but values which mould the character and determine the strength of our national civilization--self-control, self-reliance, perspective, persistence, ability to cooperate, courage, fortitude, honor.”
