The team won 3 in competition and 3 in practice sessions. This brought their wins to 6 - 5 and was the best record since foot¬ ball was re-introduced into our school following the war. Dalton finished second in league competition by losing a tough game to Doylestown. The team showed an excellent record in statistics, but it ' s the score that counts. Hopes are now high for next year if we can rely on the predictions of the thirteen Seniors who played the returning lettermen in their annual end-of-the season scrimmage. 22
