 Toots Gilliam playing his second year with the Jackets was a very good reserve guard. His fight stopped many plays at his side of the line. Ray Taylor playing his initial year as a Jacket back looked great during the latter part of the season, much will be expected of him next year. Charlie Miller, another reserve, should earn his letter at center for the Jackets next season. Clayton Hopkins playing his second and last year for the Jackets has been a stellar performer all year. He will be missed next fall when the opening whistle blows. Bob Sikes, a star from the Frosh squad of 1931, was handicapped by sickness about the middle of the season. He should make Coach Cheaney a good linesman or back next fall. McQUEEN HUTCHINSON Price McQueen was one of the Jackets' best ends. His defensive work was above par all season. His pass catching was above the average. McQueen will be playing his fourth and last year for the Jackets when the 1933 season rolls around. Bob Hutchinson has finished his grid career with the Jackets. He was a little man but his fight and fleetness made him a dependable back.

Capt. Hoot” Masur has finished a very colorful grid career for the Jackets. For four years he has been the Jacket regular fullback and above all has had few peers in the conference at this position. Masur was probably the best defensive back in the conference during his playing for the Jackets. The Texas Conference will lose a football player that has been one of her outstanding members for the past four years when Masur graduates this spring. Howard Payne will always remember Hoot for his clean and hard playing while helping the Jackets MASUR THE SQUAD This Jacket football squad with the others that have been in Howard Payne for the past four years has established a record that has never been equaled in Texas athletic circles. They have won the Txas Conference Football Title since 1928, the only blot on their record for the past five years was a tie with Simmons University for the title in 1931. The present squad came right back to win the crown again during the past season. A record of four undisputed titles in five years. The 1932 squad established a record that will be seldom equaled and probably will never be excelled. Coach Cheaney started with a bunch of men that were only mediocre in appearance but due to willingness to work they were developed into champions.

Boh Worley, Co-Captain of the Jackets during the 1932 season, was probably the best quarter that has run a team in the Texas Conference for the past several years. He was All-Conference quarter for the past two years. He was the Jackets' main offensive threat during his stay with the Jackets. Clyde Dean, a back, was one of the hardest working men on the Jacket squad. He lettered four years at Howard Payne and we will miss “Gotch next year when the season rolls around. Clem Page playing his first year with the Jackets at end made us a good man. He is large and fast and should make a good man next year. John A. Wester, a reserve lineman, should go well next season if he can keep his mind on football. Leon Henry is a fighting little man that will give some guard a run for his money next fall. Henry played his first year with the Jackets last fall. Roy Taylor, reserve end, may not be with us next fall. He was a hard worker and showed the old Jacket pep at all times. Leslie Terry was handicapped with an injury that kept him on the side-lines all season. He is fast and elusive. He should fill one of the halfback slots well next fall. PAGE WESTER HENRY TAYLOR TERRY
