To their credit goes the title of South- Watch the Down the ridiron The Kingman Eagles finished th e most successful football season since 1921. They didn't lose a game and out- scored their opponents by a large mar- gin. ern Kansas League football champions. Another big factor in the successful season was the victory over the old rival, Pratt. For the past two seasons the Eagles have won over them. Probably the most exciting, thrilling and best-played game was that of An- thony. The largest crowd in history of this section of the country was present at this game. To make it better, the Eagles romped the Pirates all over the field to win, 40 to 14. The closest game was that of Lyons. The Lyons line was the strongest played against during the season. Lettermen Kenneth LaFever, quarter-back, jun- ior, two-year letterman. Height 5 ft. 8 in., weight 145 lbs. Isaac was the lad whose head was used to run the team. He was a remarkable rabbit-footed ball carrier. Many great gains were tread under his flying feet. Cleal LaFever, full-back, junior, one- year letterman. Height 5 ft. 11 in., weight 168 lbs. Cleo played his first year of football this season. He was one of the hardest driving full-backs in the country. On defense he was a stone wall, for scoring he was the highest. George Graves, right-half, junior, one- y e a r letterman. Height 5 ft. 8 in., weight 147 lbs. Gravy,' was the great- est blocker in this part of the state. He would rather block than carry the ball. At ball carrying he was a very efficient Eagles from - - - Season's Record Kingman 18, Pretty Prairie 0. Kngman 13, Augusta 7. Kingman 25, Harper 6. Kingman 26, Stafford 0.

Perry Hundley, left-half, senior, two- year letterman. Height 5 ft. 9 in., weight 150 lbs. Utah', specialized in intercepting passes, passing and kicking from the quick-kick position in punting. He had snake-hips when carrying the ball. This was his last year for the Eagles. Captain Lawrence Hughbanks, sen- ior, two-year letterman. Height 5 ft. 10 in., weight 165 lbs. Cap was the leader of the all-victorious team. Al- ways found in the mix-up and where the line was weak, he was there to strengthen it. He was the fiercest tack- ler on the field. He also carried the ball for a few touchdowns. Bob Yeoman, center, sophomore, one- year letterman. Height 5 ft. 9 in., weight 150 lbs. Bob played his first season at the center position with very remarkable success. He was a very ac- curate passer and a hard tackler. His blocks were always sure. Bob has two more seasons to be seen in action for the Eagles. J. N. Stringer, guard, junior, one-year letterman. Height 5 ft. 8 in., weight 168 lbs. J. N. was a man of dynamite on defense and a sure blocker on of- fense. Large holes were made in the opponents' line and he also caused them the loss of many yards by his tackling. Another season will be played by this lad for the Eagles. Victor Beat, tackle, senior,'one-year letterman. Height 6 ft., weight 165 lbs. 14 Vic was the faster of the two tackles and many of the opposing team plays were stopped before they got under way by his tackling ability. He blocked with the might of a mule and played the game all of the way. This was his last season for the Eagles, but a splen- did one. d' Leo Robison, tackle, senior, one-year letterman. Height 5 ft. 10 in., weight 179 lbs. Leo was the so-called hole- plugger of the Eagle line. Due to his size and strength he would get in the middle of the enemy play and usually come up with the legs of the ball car- rier in his arms. Leo has played foot- ball for four seasons for the Eagles and has aided a lot. Elvis McCutchen, end, junior, one- year letterman. Height 6 ft., weight. 165 lbs. Clutch did damage to end plays for all opponents and seldom did they get around his end. He was a re- markable open field blocker and would go down on punts with the speed of any of 'em. He will be a big factor in the Eagle line next season. Loren Ashcraft, end, junior, one-year letterman. Height 6 ft., weight 156 lbs. Ash was at the other end of the majority of the passes. He had hands that clung to the pigskin like glue. He tackled hard and blocked with the best. He, too, will play next season. - Royal Hughbanks, guard, sophomore, one-year letterman. Height 6 ft., weight 160 lbs. Buckshot did not get to play as much as others, but he loved the game and was always afire with spirit and had plenty of spunk. He played like a demon when in the game. Two seasons are left for him to play. Wayne Ingram, tackle, freshman, one- year letterman. Height 5 ft. 10 in., wt. 180 lbs. Tarzan, new to the game, developed rapidly. He scared oppon- ents by strength and size and tackled with the force of a tornado. With one year of experience behind him, his re- maining three are going to be of great value to the Kingman teams.
