Edgewood 24 Madison 12 The opening of school in September brought with it the first football practice. The shortage of man-power was again felt but o squad of twenty-five boys turned out, among them four letter men. They were Captain John Henninge, Bill Macbeth, Roy Whipple, and Tom Csepegi. The Blue Streaks worked hard for two weeks and then met the Alumni, under the lights at Hickok Field, for a practice game, only to lose 12-7. The following week the Blue and White traveled to Geneva for its first Western Re- serve League game. The team came home defeated by the powerful Genevans 27 to 6. With two losses the Streaks went to match wits with the Perry Pirates. The Perry team powered their way to goals in every period and scored twice in the second to win 31 to 0. This came as a surprise as Madison was figured to win. The week of October sixth found the beys again in home territory. The first touch- down was made by Wickliffe but the Streaks immediately retaliated and led 12 to 6 at the half. The Blue Devils however, overtook the lead in the final quarter and went home with a 25 to 12 victory. Next the Streaks journeyed to Chagrin Falls to go down under a 27 to 0 score. Twenty of Chagrin's points were made in the first quarter and the Streaks displayed some fine de- fensive plays in the last half. Another out of town game was with the undefeated Fairport team. Fairport romped away with a 44 to 0 victory. With new enthusiasm the ever fighting Streaks went to Chardon to win their only game of the season. Chardon was kept clear of the goal throughout the game. The Streaks came home victorious, winning 12 to 0. The final game of the season was held at Edgewood. This proved to be a close game, the score being tied 12 all at the beginning of the final quarter. Edgewood, however, scored twice in the last quarter to win 24 to 12. This year our coach was Bill Newby, who soon after the end of the football season was inducted into the Army. He was assisted by Reverend Thomas. twenty-one
