BAND We got off too good start this year with Miss Carson os our new instructor. With our hots, and a trim row of majorettes, we played for all the home foot- ball games, marching for the first time. We were guests of the Fairport band at their gridiron. We also played at one basketball game, and furnished en- tertainment in an assembly. In the spring we gave a concert with the chorus, to help pay for uniforms, which we hope to hove next foil. We also participated in Stunt Night and gave a Bunny Hop. A new custom has been established, enabling High School students who hove been in the band three years to receive school letters. We all feel that we have had a very successful year, and we owe a greot deal to Miss Carson for what she has contributed to our school. CHORUS With our new director, Miss Carson, we gave several fine performances this year, and were quite proud of ourselves! First on our schedule was a Christmas Cantata, which, after a necessary postponment, was presented fol- lowing Christmas Vacation. On February 28th we performed in a concert with the band. We provided music for an assembly and joined with the other school organizations in help- ing to make Stunt Night a success. The remainder of the year was spent in working on another Cantata ond other new music. Phyllis Bates was our accompanist throughout the year.

FOOTBALL September 14 Madison 0 Painesville 37 September 21 Madison 18 Geneva 12 September 28 Madison 0 Perry 6 October 5 Madison 7 Wickliffe 19 October 12 Madison 19 Alumni 0 October 25 Madison 7 Chardon 6 November 2 Madison 19 Edgewood 0 November 9 Madison 7 Perry 7 The 1945-46 football season was started with the following lettermen: T. Bukky, L. Cornell, G. Csepegi, T. Csepegi, D. Emmett, J. Harmon, S. Harper, F. Roth, S. Ruzick, R. Titman and Roy Whipple, plus a large group of Fresh- men. Mr. Raveling the coach, was assisted by Mr. Alex Tomlinson. With little practice, Madison met the powerful Painesville Raiders on a sea of mud and were defeated 37 to 0. September 21, the Streaks traveled tc Geneva, where in an exciting game, T. Csepegi and S. Ruzick galloped away for three touchdowns. Final score 18 to 12. The next week Madison met Perry here and after a spectacular touch- down pass, the Pirates led 6 to 0 in the first quarter. As the final gun went off the Streaks were deep in Perry territory with the score still 6 to 0. A battered team traveled to Wickliffe on October 5th and was defeated 19 to 7 in a hard-fought game. The following week the Streaks met the Alumni at Hickok Field and for the first time in three years rolled over a mighty Alumni eleven 19 to 0. The succeeding Fridoy, Fairport played host to Madison and was vic- torious 33 to 6. In a league game the Streaks met and topped the avenging Chardon Hilltoppers, 7 to 6. Tom Csepegi kicked the extra point. As the game ended Madison was on Chardon's 1 yard line. On November 2, Edgewood traveled to Madison and was snowed under by a 19 to 0 score. Steve Ruzick intercepted an Edgewood pass on our 15 yard line, and with spectacular blocking by his team mates, ran 85 yards for the final touchdown. Perry returned to Hickok field on November 9 to play the final league game of the season, which meant a tie for first place if we won. Our eleven were fighting valiantly but the final disappointing score was 7 to 7. Thus we ended one of our most successful years tied for second place. Steve Ruzick and Roy Whipple were named to the Western Reserve All- Conference team and Jim Harmon, Al Znidarsic and Tom Csepegi received honorable mention.
