Having the largest num- ber to ever turn out, the Jay- vees had plenty of material to pick from for a successful sea- son. Under the capable and persistent tutoring of Captains E. R. Scales and G. D. Wood, hard work, and constant prac- tice proved them competent of meeting their foes. Opposi- tion met by the Jayvees was a mixture of both lucky and un- lucky breaks. The season con- sisted of three wins and three losses. Two of the games were away, one of which was at night. The main purpose of the Jayvee team is to prepare material for the Varsity. Look- ing over the prospects of this year's Jayvee team, we feel that the main gaps of next year's varsity will be adequate- ly filled. CAPT. GEORGE WOOD S CHEDULE I. 18-Flaget J.

More of K. M. I.-FLAGET Flaget's underdog Braves, led by hard running Joe McGrath, unleashed a spark- ling running attack, and a baffling aerial display to defeat the hapless K. M. I. eleven 37-6, at Maxwell Field. The two flared-up teams played their hardest for it was their last game of the season. Tommy Bohan- non uncorked a bullet pass to McGrath, who received it on the Kaydets 20, and raced to the first score. The Kaydets suc- ceeded in tying the score 6-6 by the end of the first period. Bob Ray, Ted Jenks, and Clark Frazier co-operated to mark up two first downs and place the oval on the Flaget 16. From there, Thompson stabbed over LETTERMEN TAGGART MUDD VAN 1viECRE game shots on K. M. I. field right tackle for a touchdown. The Kaydets showed signs of distress as M c G ra th marked up tallies for Flaget, but the Sol- diers came back hard and fighting! Yes, the Kaydets lost the game, but in football the score is not all that counts. Each one of the team fought hard during the entire season and did his utmost, therefore, it was a successful one. The team deserves much credit and praise, for those boys had it in them.
