D FRIENDLY COMPETITION Coach Azar and Co-Captains Munley and Seal are deserving of much praise for the type of team, and the quality of sportsmanship, that prevailed throughout the season. Manager Frank Vosburg, and his assistants and Trainer Henry Shields also filled their posts capably and aided the team in every way possible. All in all, the season was a good one -- the best enjoyed to-date, both in the percentage of games Won, and in the benefits the players and the school at large derived from the sport. All eyes are on the coming year, for with most of the team returning hopes are high that in the coming season the present enviable record will be surpassed, and the Seminary loss be avenged.

Despite a slight amount of difficulty in accustoming themselves to the sur- roundings, the Little Giants soon proved that they were head and shoulders above the opposition. The outstanding performer for this game was game-captain Iack Munley. Munley not only made the majority of the points, but proved his capable leadership by inventing and using a new play on the spur of the moment. In this, the last game of the season with Keystone's arch rival, the Little Giants lost in the last two minutes when a desperate attempt to score by a long pass was ruined by an interception and consequent touchdown.
