The Marine City Football Team, otherwise known as the Wildcats, came out on top this year for the first time in eighteen seasons, and became the St. Clair County Champions, a title they well deserved. In 1940, it will be recalled that the Mariners lost the championship in that vital game with St. Stephens by a close margin. This year they walked over practically all comers, being trained to win by their coach, Mr. Catt, and the line-coack, Mr. Gingrich. The Wildcats first game was played with an out-of-county school. New Haven, here in Marine City at Ward Cottrell Park. Before this game the Wildcats had been beaten by New Haven each year of the four they had been playing. New Haven scored only once in this game, that being in the first quarter. After this DeCou took the ball over for a touchdown twice in succession, and Arnold also earned one during the last quarter. The final score was Marine City, 18; New Haven, 6. On September 28 the Mariners played another out-of-county game at Oxford with the Oxford High School. The Mariners scored their first and only touchdown in the first quarter. The second quarter Oxford scored thirteen points, and in the last half they scored six more giving them the victory, 31-6.
