Football A hard fighting, but small and inexperienced East Greenville High School football team fought its way through a tough schedule to come through with a record of 3 wins and 7 losses. They tied for second place in the Montco B League. The Greenies lost their first game to Quakertown under the lights at Quakertown by a 13-U score. ln the next game the Yellow Iackets who were not playing up to par lost to a not too strong Wyomissing team by a 21-13 score. These defeats did not discourage the team. They came back to win over Collegeville and Schwenksville by a 19-U and 26-6 scores. After these two victories the Greenies faced a strong Norco team, and lost a heart breaker to this team by a close margin of 7-6. This defeat did not take the spirit out of the boys, for after this they traveled to West Pottsgrove to defeat an underestimated Falcon foe by a tight 7-6 score. On November 1 Lady Luck turned her back to E. G. H. S. On this day the Yellow Iackets lost to a neighboring underdog Pennsburg team by the score of 15-7. This unexpected defeat took the wind out of the Greenies' sail. The following Week they lost a 19-6 thriller to Em- maus but they did not lose their fighting spirit. An injury riddled team, not having enough men left on its squad to hold a scrimmage, played host to the 1946 champions of the Montco B League, Royersford. At half time of this game the Greenies had held their opponents to a 14-14 tie but in the second half the Eagles sparked to a 33-14 victory. E. G. H. S. then played host to Boyertown in the traditional Turkey Day game. In this game the Bears squeezed out a 13-7 victory over the Yellow Iackets. 'Q Mr. Pritchard assisted by Mr. Guldin, took over the coaching duties, and through their leader- ship the team had shown great improvement. lt is expected that the fine coaching of these two men will bring to E. G. H. S. a victorious team in '48. 1 9 4 eggs TT 39
