The first few days were almost exclusively for conditioning. Blocking and tackling were stressed and by the end of the first week all players were a little bruised and in some cases had lost alittle weight. The Red Devil season opened with a victory over the Sperry Tigers. Those who played in the game showed that the boys were in good shape, but the lack of experience was also evident in many positions. The second game was at Shidler and the game was on even terms throughout, ending in a 6-6 tie. liven at this time the Red Devils had not reached a peak of execution on offense and defense. Leaving the Shidler game with a tie was a little disappointing and the boys worked very hard for their third game with the Tonkawa Buc- caneers. This team fell to the Devils by a score of 20-6. Next in line was the game with Newkirk, a team being considered as a state contender and one of the strongest on the schedule. The boys did a good job when they defeated the Tigers by a score of 19-6. The boys next journeyed to Collinsville for an inter-conference game with the Tulsa 7 team. The Devils emerged from this game victorious, thc score being 27-0. FRANK WARNER ' Ifnd JIM Tl'RNI5l'l.l. Tackle DON WANN Full Back 5.1.19 4 i
