On September 5th the Rangers met Richwood in the Prevue at Ken- ton. After leading most of the game we were defeated 13 to 6. That following week we played the Bulldog's of Elida. After holding a 6 point lead the first half the Rangers came back with two touch-downs and an extra point to defeat a strong Elida team 19 to 0. The next week we played our first home game, with Pandora. This was supposed to be the toughest team of the season, but the confident Rangers turned back the Fleet-wings 47 to 14. On September 26 we met Delphos on our home field. After being behind most of the game, the Rangers scored a touchdown with three minutes left to play to come out on top 13 to 12. This was a very thrilling game for the Homecoming crowd. Next the Forest Rangers invaded the Kenton Wildcats on the latter's field. This game is always a bitter rivalry. The stands were packed. In this game Forest jumped into the lead and kept gradually building up until the end of the game. The score was 34 to 14. Before the Dad's of the Rangers, we knocked off a tough Lafayette team 13 to 7. Traveling to Columbus Grove the following week we encountered our first defeat. Although we were beaten this was somewhat of a moral victory for the Rangers. The game ended with Grove on top 13 to 6. On the following week the Rangers traveled to Spencerville. Leading throughout the game we were victorious by 65 to 12 score. Then came the Ada Bulldogs, who were highly enthusiastic and con- fident. Due to a few injuries and a bad first half we were beaten Z6-7. In the season finale an experienced Shawnee club came to Forest. This was Mom's night and the Rangers lost this high scoring game 38 to 25. The Rangers finished in third place in the Northwest Conference.
