THE COMMITTEE ON ATHLETICS HE representatives for the Committee on Athletics are elected hy the students in each of the home rooms. They are usually interested especially in athletics and are Willing to do all in their power to make the inter-class and home room games a success. They have a great many duties, including those of announcing inter-class or home room games, assuming the responsibility of having a full team ready to play when a game is scheduled, and taking charge of the selling of tickets for games. A great deal of the success of the home room competition in athletics this year was due to their interest and influence. MARNA BRADY, '21. 51471

FCQQT L , .' '1 Q rf ii wg egg of ef We-P. l f X ' W A Q l ft-1-- . . - fifQ,lQLt fs.- HIS year East High was determined to win the Interscholastic Cham- pionship, consequently a week before school opened Coach Reisner had all of his old men practising daily. When school opened, a call for football candidates went out and seventy-three fellows responded. Out of this number a squad of twenty-five men was picked and carried all season. The letter men from last year's team were Keating, Bray, Lease, Layport, Bachman, Roos, Bangham, Bauer, and Richardson. With these men as a foundation and the new material, Coach Reisner by his untiring efforts welded together a championship team. V On January sixth, the fathers of the twenty letter men entertained them with a dinner and theater party. The surprise of the evening came when they presented the team with gold footballs as a reward for their work. On the next morning the Cornell Cup was presented to the school and accepted by Coach Reisner. The letters were presented to the team by Mr. Reuter, who made a short speech about each player. The team then presented Captain Richardson with a large East High blanket. There were few individual stars on the team, but our team work was mighty good. We had an abundance of good ends, Bachman, Crosset, Monroe, and H. Evans all played sterling games. While Smith, Woods, and Buchanan were too light this year, they will be good next year. On the line, Lease, Wedig, Layport, Hunt, Rosenstiel, and Knecht were towers of strength. Carpenter, Destler, and Grad had little chance with these men but will be material to fill in the gaps made by graduation. 11491
