o 1949 Maude DONNIE DANIEL SNYDER stood out especially well as a defensive player. This capable reserve held down the job of right guard and should be a big help when Coach Ryan calls the 1949 squad together next September. HARLAN -IIGGIEU BROADWATER, two-year letterman, was one of the really valuable members of the 1948 team. He was outstanding as center, a position that he held for two years. His place will be hard to fill next year. MELVIN HGOOCHIEH GOOCH, who played left guard, was an outstanding player on the Green and White squad, making the first string in his sophomore year. Small but scrappy, this Ryanman was noted for his never-say-die spirit. RICHARD RICK GARCIA, one of the two Big Green players to receive honor- able mention on the All-State Team, was elected captain of the 1948 team, a position which he filled well. Small in stature but mighty in strength, he was a really fine left end. ROBERT PUPPY STEWART, who played a guard position, was one of the most dependable and hard-working members of the squad. Reporting for practice in his Freshman year, this Senior has labored four seasons to help the Big Green get its share of victories. 57
