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

In the backfield, Keating and Bray were the outstanding stars and few games passed without a spectacular play by one of them. Who will ever forget Ed. Keating's run on the kick-off in the Hughes game? Roos, Bachman, Bauer, Bangham, G. Evans, Keating, and Bray did the heavy work in the backiield and all were hard hitters andiworkers. Although Keating, Lease, Hunt, Crosset, Roos, Wedig, 'and Richardson graduate this year we have the brightest hopes for the future and are determined to make the Cornell Cup a permanent possession of East High School. East High 15-Norwood 7 The East High Tigers opened the season with a victory over the strong Norwood eleven. The game was hotly contested and full of thrills, both teams playing in mid-season form. Norwood put up a good iight but lacked the speed and punch of our boys. U The Line-Up East High Norwood High Bauer .......... .... l ........... Wedig-Knecht .,.,. ,,.. L . T. . . . .
