FOOTBALL 1937 Football continued on an upward trend, our season being a very successful one. Barring injuries it would have of been even more impressive, We were without the services of our all conference half back, Ralph Brand, for three games, and he was not at his best for two of the other games. Howard Hepler, was also an all conference selection, being picked at right end. Our Seasons Records Homer 6 Homer 19 Homer 32 Homer 13 Homer 6 Homer 7 Homer 7 Homer 6 Homer 25 Total 12l Letter Winners: Capt. Brand, Hepler, Baker, R. Smith, Barnes, Larder, Taylor, Amsler, Yost, R. Cook, B. Cook, Buskirk(Capt.Elect), S. Jarosz, Hakes, J. Jarosz, M. Smith, Linton, E. Bran1., Rising, and Grialey. Eleven of these boys are seniors, and although a great many of them were not regulars their loss is going to be greatly felt next Fall. The passing combination of Hepler to Brand, with which we got away with so much, probably will not be equalled in some years to come. Our football team gave the fams all they could ask for in power plays with Baker hitting the line, passes with Hepler, and Brand1s long spectacular runs. During the season, Capt. Brand ran four punts back for touchdowns. Short dashes by Pee Wee Smith, the giant of the back-field, weight 117 pounds in uniform and Junior Smith1s quarter back sneaks with Buck , R. Cook, and Gridley clearing the way were also power plays. Fuzzy Amsler, with his great defensive line play,was a stand out in the line. The Jarosz brothers gave fine demonstrations of end play. The utility player was Chas. Rising, having been used at End, Half-back, and Guard. The tfiole squad gave a very good demonstration and played good balL Despite the loss of these seniors we expect to have another good team next fall.
