The Comets started the season by beating Beloit ond Jefferson by the one hit and no hit games pitched by Hauffe. Although Hauffe’s pitching on the Comet's home field was exceptionally good, he couldn't seem to find the plate on fields away from Delavan. The season was highlighted by the fact that Comets won all their home games and lost all the games played away from home. The players who received letters were Capt. Sanford, Bob Hauffe. Dave Franklin, Earl Cook, Dick Sfurtevant, Bill Klein, Francis Clapper, Marvin Pogel, Gordon Madison, Don Deschner, and Charles Schmaling. This year looks rather dark with the return of only three letfermen. This means that the 1945 Comets will have to be rebuilt. 10
