Bringing football back into our school program of athletics, after a lapse of four years, was no easy task. There were only two short weeks of practice to overcome inex¬ perience and to drill fundamentals into a team that had never been on a football field. The boys were willing and tried hard even though a mere glance at the schedule reveals nothing to verify this statement. They were a green, scared team as they en¬ tered that first game, but a spirited, fight¬ ing squad when the season closed. They gave their best in spite of inexperience. We can truthfully say that no matter how badly the score looked, the team took it in a sportsman like manner--symbollc of every Dalton High School Team.

Other players on the first ten were Herbert Nussbaum, Donald Weygandt, James Thomas, Harold Douglas, and Rodney Graber. Then the tournament, and a clean sweep of honors slipped through our fingers as the Chipps dropped us in The Championship of the tournament. We had already gained our right to advance to the Sectional, but Lady Luck was against us and thus we were eliminated from further honors for this year. One by one. schools dropped as they challenged our Bulldogs. The most notable of early season victories was the defeat handed Strasburg. Our fame and glory grew as on we came through an undefeated league season suffering only two losses in non-league games. The All Star Team was chosen, with Dick Smith on first team as center and Richard Rosenherger and Basil Evans on second team. Tom Shank received honorable mention. Dick Smith was also chosen for the second team Sectional.
