FOCTBALL Work, work, work and slave for old D. H. S. Mr. Medley thought this must be the motto of the Danville Varsity Football Team after see- ing them out on the gridiron practicing for their tough schedule of op- ponents. It was a very successful season, with the Maroons winning a total of five games, losing only two, and tying one. The two most out- standing games were those with our traditional rivals, Urbana and Champaign. Although the Urbana game was played in a drenching rain, the Maroons emerged with a victory by counting two touchdowns and holding Urbana scoreless. The Champaign game saw two well-bal- anced and evenly matched teams play to a 7-to-7 tie. Danville, as a whole, realized what a fine bunch of boys were out there every week- end working and fighting for the fame and honor of D.H.S. Yes, Mr. Medley agreed it was an excellent team, well coached and completely cooperative. This year's team as pictured below are as follows: top row, left to right, Tom Smerdel, captain, Al Bernthal, Joe Muser, John Hart, Frank Bullias, Bob Erskine, Sam Haun. Middle row, left to right, Wayne En- dicott, Ken Hunsaker, Norman Lucas, John Songer, captain-elect, Bill Brannon, Joe Trigalet, Bob Faulkner. Bottom row, left to right, Bart Scott, Bill O'Kane, Cloyd George, Jim Shanks, Al Derrickson, Bill Roth, Eric Magnuson. A Wm?

391 all I' I ALP u CCUNTRYMRESERVES Mr. Medley thrilled to the outstanding feat of the cross country team this year, which was plac- ing third in the First Annual Woodruff Invita- tional meet. Besides placing in this meet, the team won additional honors by having its captain- elect, Harry Collier, lead the forty-six runners into the finish of the two and three-tenths mile. The team also had dual meets with Urbana and Paris. All in all, the team ran a very successful year under the leadership of its coach, Mr. Russell Mingee, who, in his high school days, was a track star at Danville High School. In the picture at the left are ffirst rowl Bill Bradfield, Harry Col- lier, and Melvil Clawson. CSecond rowj Marvin Long, Ralph Johnson, Clarence Thurman, and Coach Mingee. Captain Merle Davis was absent when the picture was taken. Mr. Medley attended all six games of the reserve football squad and rooted loudly for the boys who might possibly make the varsity squad next year. The reserve squad, led by its honorary captain, Bill Marsters, duplicated its record of the two pre- vious seasons by winning three games, losing two games, and tying one. The game played with Ur- bana here on our own field was probably the best game of the season. Members of this year's squad are pictured below and to the left is Coach Law- erence Newtson talking it over with Bill Marsters. fflfvvf- , , fa 431, Lf .f!-Levi, -f'X-sf-ffff L --V010 1 if A , .
