- .arm FOOTBALL TEAM OF 1925 Athletics at M. H. S. Athletics play an important part in the Marengo High School. When -properly directed, athletics promote a spirit oi' true sportsmanship, honest and integrity. Marengo desires all her athletes to be true sports- V men and gentlemen, and if all athletics can be permeated by such noble ideals what can be finervthan to have a group of boys Whose character 'll be molded along these lines by participating in athletics? May this wi always be the primary consideration at Marengo, rather than the mere thought of winning the greatest possible number of victories. mere victories and defeats? Who is to measure success by a record of Is not success rather to be measured by improvement? It is in this Way that our athletic success must be measured. Handicapped by lack of a ' h l l bored gymnasium, and by lack of enthusiasm, Mr. Owen nevert e ess a f 'thfully to make his teams come through, and by combining his know- ai ledge of athletics With patience and earnest zeal, he has laid the founda- H' d rd tion for, what promises to be. a banner year in all sports. is stan a of fair play and eternal fight has given the class of 1926 full reason for cherishing him in their memory. -R.A.W.

. ,, . , ,ssmwa i . y FOOTBALL SQUAD OF 1925 Captain Kenneth Rundall-Right Tackle. This was Rundall's last year to play football for Marengo. Through- out the season he proved to his teammates that they had not acted un wisely in choosing him Captain. In addition to calling the plays, Run- dall always played a brilliant defensive game at right tackle. His posi- tion will be hard to fill next year. A - Walter Schoenfelder-Fullback Shaney was probably the hardest hitting man in the backfield. Whenever a gain was needed through the line, you could give the pigskin to Shaney and know that he wouldn't stop till he was down. His loss will be felt next year. Ora Stockton-Center. Another man who played his last year of football for Marengo is Ora Stockton. He was our tall and lanky center, who threw passes to the backfield with deadly assuracy. Lysle Kenney-Halfback. This being Kenney's first year of football, it took him a while to get into the swing of it. Kenney always delighted in fooling his opponents by making a line smash from punt formation, He played a good game defensively and offensively, so we expect great things from him in foot- ball before he graduates.
