Why? He had taken a strong interest in the game and team, besides having a. natural disposition to get along well with a group of fellows. His habits were also a natur- al aid to his playing. When a question came up as to what plays should be used, or as to signals, he was always capable of setting them aright. Such ability in lead- ership besides his strength and size gave him his place and honor. Coach Martin: Coach got his men in the best condition and kept them that way throughout the season, and installed The Old Fighting Bulldog Spirit into every member of the team. The climax of the season came on Turkey Day, when the Bulldogs de- fied and defeated the Tarkio High School Huskies 10 to 7. In this game every man delivered the best that he had, and as a result the fans were treated to a brand of football very seldom witnessed in high school football, as the Huskies from Tarkio called forth the Bulldogs' superzor brand of playing. With ten of the sixteen letter men returning to the Bulldog camp next year, and with Coach Martin's training and coaching, Fairfax should again develop a mighty eleven. We are expecting even better results next year and feel sure they will uphold the famous Bulldog motto, Win . . . Clean. IE ,, if , mm ag A lil it +-.tn :ami kt .-, i -. P ,L AA

He N gets his man every time for a loss. This was heard often when Shorty vin was only playing his regular brand of j football. He has already won two let- ters and we expect the same results next year. tv CHARLIE MARTIN Halfback-125 pounds. Charlie was especially good on his defensive work. Always in the right place to intercept one or more passes during a game. He also carried the ball for his share of the yardage. He should be a real star next year. He has already made two letters. ALBERT BURNS Halfback-130 pounds. Straw is the only man below the Junior class to make his letter this year. Albert had several upper class- men to compete against for his posi- tion, but his work was of such high type that he won his letter. A. J. CARSON Guard-138 pounds. Ben won his letter for the second time, this year. He was sent in sev- eral times to strengthen his line, and his work was always effective. He was ?re varsity material and should be earing three stripes next year. FLOYD CLOSE T8,Ck1e-137 pounds. Floyd experienced his first year in football this season. He made great progress, and was certainly worthy of a letter. We expect him to be one of the regulars, next year. rs I Q ,JJ 5,1-,Q -1 ' .v ll Q f QL. JM, ff.. . ,-4 1 l V' lL'1 ,il-. .,,!.

Oct, 7, The Fairfax Eleven came marching on the field with all the glory attainable. The dear old Green and White waved victoriously at the close of the game. The boys fully deserved the final score of 18 to 0, which was in their favor. WESTBORO, 65 FAIRFAX, 7. Westboro, there. Oct, 14. This game was more exciting than the first. It is plain to be seen the Bulldogs are fast proving their worth. It looked as though the boys were all butterfingersg but to our joy the final score stood 7 to 6 for us. ROCK PORT, 63 FAIRFAX, 0. Fairfax, here. Oct. 21. The first big game of the season, but it was just too bad for Fairfax. The Rock Port people all admitted they were surprised for the teams proved to be well-match- ed. If this fight is kept up, Tarkio will have to go some to defeat us. MOUND CITY, 0g FAIRFAX, 13. Mound City, there. Oct. 28. Mound City challenged the Bulldogs to another hard fought game on their gridiron. The Mound City rooters were not very enthusiastic, but Fairfax showed how they could cheer, when Shelton made a pretty touchdown in the first two min- utes of the game. WESTBORO, 63 FAIRFAX, 19. Fairfax, here. Nov. 4. The team was greatly handicapped in this game for a number of our regulars were unable to play. Our subs showed their goods and led us to another victory over the northern team by a. score of 19 to 6. 5 El e au me
