1936 RED AND BLACK PALMATEERgDona1d is the first freshman to letter since the days of Bully Birch. He should be one of the great ball players if he keeps up hIs hard work. O'CONNoR- Irishman lived up to his Irish ancestors in their love for a good fight and was one of the hardest workers on the squad. PERRY-Eldon was one of the lightest men on the squad and alternated with Moon and Al- len at end, and was a good man on defense. RAYBOURN-WhCl1 'tFat would bring his 180 pounds around to run interference, he was never satisfied with one man but would make it two or three before he called it an evening. MOON-Paul, playing his first year at end, was a good pass receiver and could cover punts in first class style. SWINEHART-Jimmie did the kicking and the distance he averaged was remarkable In view of the fact that he only weighed 135 pounds. He al- ternated with Cohen at calling signal and specialized on the Cohen to Allen to Swinehart combination. RICHARDSON-Bob played practi- cally every minute of every game and was one of the most accurate passers in the con- ference. THURBER- Deacon was an- other horse for work. He could plunge the line like no- body's business and was hard to stop. Topeka couldn't do this, and it was he who scored The touchdown in the big game.

ALLEN-Playing his second year at end, Bob, who is only a Junior, was one of the out- standing pass receivers in the conference. COIIEN-AE1l'0H was on the pass- ing end of the Cohen to Allen combination and was a good safety man. Cohen is a Senior this year. ANDERSON - Chuck, playing his first year on the team, was a hard running back. He will be back next year. FRINK - Rusty has one more year to play football for L. M. H. S. He played excellent ball either at guard or tackle. .IoHNsoN- Plunging Bill was one of the team's best blockers and carried on the Johnson tradition in great style as set by Dale and Kenneth. GERARD-Junior, a Senior this year, although handicapped by injuries was one of the fastest men on the squad. JACKSON-- Big Red, once he was stirred up, was a Har- ing torch which the opposition dreaded. JoNF:s- Cy, playing his nrst year, developed rapidly and could be counted on for a good game. KELL-Joe, once he was covered with mud and perhaps a bloody nose, could drive his 145 pounds through the heaviest enemy lines. --Rcnmrlrs by Couch Wood. 1936 RED AND BLACK i
