The old men that answered the call were Zuber, Schoenfield, Webb, Wilson and Day. But the new men went to work with a will that soon made them into real fighters. The first big event came when we met Bay City in a hard battle. Neither team profited from the mix-up as far as scoring goes, but our new men found their places and when we again met the same team, we gave them a sound trouncing. This gave our team new hopes and they began the climb. Palacios and Edna went down in our march upward and we came to the place where we must meet teams larger and better picked. Goose Creek came over to puncture our swelling pride, but they were on the re- ceiving end ofthe defeat. They had a good team, but we outfought them, and placed our team among the four contestants for district championship Beaumont, Ball High of Galveston, and Heights High of Houston. lt fell our lot to play Beaumont. The team came over and with greater weight, greater knowledge, and more experience, eliminated us from the race. But only after a hard fight against great odds did our team go down. The story of the terrific fight our team made when they were so out- classed, the unconquerable spirit of the men will be a current story in the annals of our school. The team leaves to the future team a standard of courage, and clean sportsmanship that will serve them in their football battles for El Campo High School. The regulars that we lose this year are Wright, Zuber, Webb, Schoen- field, Yoas and Day. Their places will be hard to fill but we hope El Campo High has a better team next year than she has had in several years. Page sixty-one

He hacks up the line mighty well, and is a hard and sure taekler. He is a worker and never gives up. Age OYBIER Weght I 5 Ilalfbark ixgo Here is a man who will bear watching. He is fast, and is a hard tackler. When Yoas was hurt in the First game, Ray was sent in, and has stayed in, alternating with Yoas at left half. Although light, Ray is a fast man and hard as nails. He has two more years and should develop into a fine football palyer. Age PRAvToR NVeight I7 Guard 160 H Bully is known as one of the hardest workers on the squad. He gets in every play. His tackling is a feature. ln the Goose Creek game he Covered two Goose Creek fumbles which proved to be of much value to us. He is always at the right place at the right time, and can always be depended upon to sf' L, make 11 hole in the opposing line. B Pugv .rixly
