What does this remind you of? Give up? Well, it's football, one of the most exciting sports in Central. Although the ancient Greeks and Romans had games of a nature similar to football, the modern game is English in origin. When introduced into America, it appeared in two forms, association football or soccer, in which carrying the ball is forbidden, and Rugby football. But now let's listen in on a huddle of seniors who played on the 1941 team. Dick Grainger wanted a pass in his zone but Don Frail believed a play around his end would work. Although slated for first berth, Dick had to give up his position because of leg injuries. Don was fast, shifty and a good pass receiver. Tom Leech played a smart brand of football and was a good blocker. Number 48, Ray Maley, was saying that his man was playing out too far 'a'nd a play inside tackle would work. Paul Riegle proved to be a very fast and tricky player. Henry Tim- merman's speciality was slicing through the line of defense. That little suit with a large 24 belonged to Wally Smith and he wanted a razzle-dazzle play. Usually after Jack Smith got through carrying the ball he would have to go back and pick up his would-be-tacklers, Don Welker, a small but efficient full-back, turned in a nice performance. Number 44 was Captain Ben Green, who usually kept quiet in a huddle, but he wanted' play 20. Ben was an out- standing line-blaster, passer. and line-backer, who also punted and place-kicked. Number 46 was Jim Waltemath, who was trying to keep order and was giving his choice of play since he was the quarter-back. No school football team is ever complete without a reserve squad, so let's hear what these younger Dragons talk about after a thrilling game. Hey, Cook, that catch was sure a beaut! Boy, was that tackle big. Is my nose bleeding? That was sure tough when Goedde sprained his ankle. Was your guard playing outside, Ben- nett? This chatter keeps up until these tired fellows crawl into bed at night and then they dream football. Several reserves had a chance to play on the varsity and showed up admirably.
