Among the team's opponents were Oxford, Edison, Lind- bergh, and Henry Ford schools. The closest game of the season was played against a strong Edison School team, and the margin was the extra point of a final 7-6 score. The squad was well balanced and its regulars were mostly ninth class members. The addition of this group to the high school teams will be an important factor next year. The boys were led by John Blanchard, who was elected captain. 57 fi fi 4 Y 5. fl li l' E 5 nl V7 li ,.
