Most of the players from last year's squad had either graduated or had gone into the service. ln the first game with Warrenton the team showed spirit and courage. but on the last play of the game they were defeated by a score of 8 to 6. After this game l-Inckw Dennis left school, leaving a vacancy at end. This position was filled by Francis Triplett with George Furr going into the backfield. After this game Rodney Glascock also replaced Dickie Fletcher as left guard. This game was followed by two games with Manassas which were lost by close scores. Then came the return game with War- renton in which the team showed determination enough to win over a stronger enemy by a score of 20 to 14. In this game our best back, Randy Caylor, sprained an ankle and was out of action most of the time in the last two games, which were lost to Lincoln. Although the team ended the '43 season with 1 victory and 5 defeats, it must be congratulated on its excellent spirit and sportsmanship.
