Wilson. Yorflfi lffhite Dover vs. Lakewood, October 4, 1930: The Lakewood midgets trounced the Dover varsity by raising a tally of 20 points and holding the opponents score- less. The local line showed the stuff of which they were made in holding the much heavier Dover eleven, not allowing them a chance to get in and stop the backfield from scoring. The scores were made on two passes and one end run, while extra points were tallied on the last two scores. Peate caught the first pass to score. Lorain vs. Lakewood, October 11, 1930: Lorain was held scoreless while the home elfs tallied up a score of 13 points in their favor. York showed he could be relied on for substantial gain every time he carried the pig- skin under his arm. Lorain threatened the home outfit's line in the third quarter by standing on their one-yard line, but the Lorainmen fumbled and the Purplemen punted out of danger to the middle of the field. Ensminger intercepted a Lorain pass and raced for a touchdown, raising the tally to P63338 6-O, and a few minutes later White duplicated his action to the tune of another six points. Tonner was always one of those to be in on the tackles. is- X F x E .Q:.f.f,,- Mason. Page 117

Turiberg ' Elkins Lakewood vs. West Tech, September 20, 1930: The Lakewood midgets trounced the West Tech freshies in an initial battle to the tune of 19-0. The first stanza could easily be conceded to the visitors, as the home outfit was not able to hold the ball. In the second scene the natives perked up and chalked up seven points for themselves. Then in the third session the opponents seemed to tire, and they let the local elves run over them repeatedly, although the home eleven put only six points across the tape. In the fourth act the Lakewoodmen again Went over the stripe for a tally, making the final score of the fray. Mentor vs. Lakewood, September 27, 1930: Lakewood's little men downed the mentor High midgets by the total of six points. Mentor has usually held the upper end of the score in the previous pushes, but the home team made them handle the lower part this season. Ensminger carried the pigskin over the Mentor stripe after he inter- cepted the pass from Vellman to Metcalf on his own 16-yard marker and went over. The natives' line, composed of Fitch, Tonner, Meeks, Mason, Horvath, Elkins, and Gadd, held like a stone wall against a much heavier eleven. g hbkxjj fa M i.. Tonner 5 Gerald. Ne ff- Page 116

Fitch. Lakewood vs. West High, October 17, 1930: Lakewood's bantams again held a much heavier lineup to the rate of 7-0. Coach Petersen started his second team, but he replaced them with the regulars, as West was too heavy for the second string, although they showed a lot of fight. Neff was one of the outstanding players on defense, and the brunt of the attack was born by the line with Gadd showing up as a dependable man. Through his part of the line the backfield was able to make some of the longest gains in this game, and the rest of the line cannot be forgotten. Lakewood vs. Elyria, October 25, 1930: Elyria was beaten by the much superior local bantam outfit and the Lakewood lighties piled up a score of 38 points. A powerful offense measure was the basis of the Win for the locays. Wilson shone in running back punts, he also for the locals. Wilson shone in running back punts, he also ran a good 60 yards for a touchdown, but there was off-side Lakewood vs. Shaw, November 15, 1930: Lakewood's bantam team was badly beaten, after a sea- son of no stains, by the scrappy Red and Black.
