Uansa, who suc- ceeded Mr. Mclflenry as the coach of the football team, began tutoring his squad, With the help of his assistant coach, Mr. A. Colantoni. he prepared the team for the first game of the season against Monessen. After a hard fight the Roxians defeated Monessen by the score of 6-0 in a night game. The next victim to fall before the team was Rankin by the score of l3-0. Coraopolis, in a surprising game, held the Blue and White Raiders to a O-0 tie. Quickly recovering from the shock. the Meliees Rocks team smashed through their next three games defeating Car- negie li-0, Dormont 7Z0, and Crafton 32-7. After these victories, lfad luck xxasin store for the Roxians , for a powerful Cfanonsburg team succeeded in defeating them to the score of I-l-O. 'liheir bad luelc continued and the last game of the season was dropped to our traditional rivals, Stowe leligh School, fn-0. Thus closed a successful football season. A great deal of credit must l'e given to joseph Sliwlia and jack Green, who as Cfo Captains led the team on the field. 56'
