The last game of the season was with the Cleveland Tigers at Cleveland. This game was one we wanted very much to win for we had lost to Cleveland last year when we felt that we should have played a much better game. This last game was also dedicated to our seniors on the team and by the performance of the squadl believe they wanted the seniors to leave the squad with a win. When the game ended Fairfax was leading by a score of 33 to 7. - Ross Case. man, Tommy Dilbeck, lfdward Savage, Mike Martin, l'hillipNlorris, li.l., Balkman, Steve Crisman, Dyke Boone, Marvin Daniels, and Co-captain john Aston.
