ARTHUR E. MATHES Coach FOOTBALL1937 g THE past football season proved to be one of the most successful in the history of Kittanning High School. The credit can be distributed evenly between our popular old man, Arthur E. Mathes, and the squad as a Whole. The undefeated team of '29 has annually been placed as a sort of goal and guiding light to followg but, in all fairness to the '37 aggregation, a comparative look at the schedules reveals that the '37 grid machine is in the same class. Some of the highlights of the season were the thrilling victories over Punxsutawney, Har-Brac, and Butler. Another fact that can be mentioned is that Kittanning completed its second Consecutive year without a single defeat on its home field. Wilma Alderton A Q V- Harry Blaney . H ' ' f CHEERLEADERS at 4?

The backfield trio of Buzzinotti, Cigola, and Richardson, together with the group of versatile ends, took advantage of the numerous scoring opportunities. The line, which was the question mark of the team, showed its mettle by holding its own, and often outplaying heavier and more experienced forward walls. Following is a short resume of each of the season's games: SEPTEMBER 10 KITTANNING 19-APOLLO 0 Under the Gilpin fioodlights, the i'Wildcz1ts opened the season with the 19-0 win over the HStriped Tigers. This was the first indication of Kittanning's scoring power on the ground and in the air. ln the first quarter Richardson and Buzzinotti, behind a smooth-working line, scored thirteen points and Cigola added another touch- down in the third period. The second and fourth quarters gave Coach Mathes a chance to experience his Hshock troopsf, SEPTEMBER 17 KITTANNING 26-BROOKVILLE O This game was another 'fwarm-up session for the f'Wildcats, and another chance for Coach Mathes to experiment with his substitutes. The scoring was divided evenly among Cigola, Buzzinotti, Bell, and Orr. It was this game that revealed fully the threat of Greno Buzzinotti's arm as a powerful scoring weapon. SEPTEMBER 24 KITTANNING 0--TARENTUM 13 The Tarentum affair was Kittanning's first big game, for which they had been pointing since the start of the season. The Redcats, however, with the aid of a few breaks, managed to push over a score late in a hard fought first half. A determined Kittanning team took the field for the second half, but Tarentum seemed to have gained in strength and managed to score again in the last part of the game. The f'Wildcats,' showed a great fighting spirit, even in defeat. Tarentum later went on to complete its schedule undefeated. Page T-'wenty-Se-ven
