Allen Wheeler, halfback, was the only elayer to letter four years. In his last three years he started every game but one and was out of that game with a shoulder-seoaration. Wheeling his way through oononents with driving sneed and deceotion, hevas not only Hillsboro's tor runner but also the best in the conference, Allen was active not only infbotball butalso great in bese- oall and basketball to be one of the best athletes ever to attend Hillsboro High School. Keith Carr! the other caotein, was the regular center, Though linemen are often overlocked when honors are dealt out, one could hardly ignore this rugged senior who did equally well on the defense and oilense, ,Not only did he star at center, but several games elayed fullback to relieve George Yelbel, a Junior resular. Keith has earned a letter for three years and started every game for the last two years. He was a linebacker to lead the Hillsboro defense that limited onwonents to an average of 8 points per game. Keith also has been regular third baseman of the baseball team for two years and will orobably be afbur-letter wlnner in that soort, va 9

But more careful inspection shows that with a few breaks we might have gone undefeated. The worst defeat was a 6 to O opener with New Lisbon, the undefeated conference champion. Act- ually the figures show that Hillsboro scored S3 points to their opponentm M7 while losing 3 games by the combined margin of M points. Early in the year two of last year's regulars were injured. Charles Butcher, halfback, suffered a leg injury which prevented him from seeing much action, and gurad Walter Shear cracked an ankle in the first game and was out for the season. Allen Wheeler, co-captain, sustained a late season shoulder injury which stopped him from playing in one game and hampered him ln the others. The team was very good defensively but lacked an offensive punch to be dangerous in late stages of the games. This was because of poor blocking rather than lack of good runners. Hillsboro gave every team a good, hard game and next year hopes to im- prove on this record. l9h9 Football Schedule Hillsboro - O New Lisbon - 6 Hillsboro - 20 Livingston - 12 Hillsboro - 6 Westby - 7 Richland center Bi -7 Muscoda - 6 Wonewoc - 9 Hillsboro - 6 Hillsboro - 13 Hillsboro - 7 ll il 5
