They are the proud possessors of the tro- phy that designates them as the winners of the Little Ten Conference. Although the start of the season looked a little dark for our hearty warriors, they made a name for themselves--not only as a hard hitting team, but also for their good clean sportsmanship. Wherever they went or whatever the results of the game, they were always complimented on their - faltering love for good clean ball Hats off, students and people of McKenzie, to the best all around ball club that McKenzie has ever seen In years to come may the team of '42 be remembered as a team that never went down with out a fight And may you, the Rebels of the fu ture, remember the value of clean sportsmanship taught by one who has no equal in the eyes of the Rebels of 1942 our coach, our teacher, and, most of all, our friend, Coach McKenzie McKenzie, Tennessee September 26, 1941 After a very weary and hard fought battle,the McKenzie Milan game came out a draw, 7 7 After Cozart ran a winning touchdown, it was called back by the referee, Hswatn Scarborough, because clipping This was a blow for the Rebels, butwhen you play ball, you have to 'take it on the chin Just between you and me, I think Milan was well satisfied with the results of the game

I'd rather not even write this game up. But we have to take a little bitter with the sweet. I can easily say that this was one of the most hard-fought battles of the season. First one team and then the other was ahead. McKenzie had the ball down on the 7 yard line, a pass was called, which fell short of it's mark and was caught by the McKenzie center. This play cost McKenzie 15 yards and was the last time that they threatened the goal. Paris scored in the third quarter the only tally of the game. McKenzie, Tennessee--October 10, 1941 The McKenzie Rebels defeated the Bruceton Bull dogs by the small score of 14-13. with the loss of Simmons, it seems as though our fighting spirit was taken away. By doing our best, we . finally pushed Bruceton out of the game by a small margin. Although the playing was not what it should have been, we did all right. This game was almost a slip-up on McKenzie. But I assure you that we wodt be caught napping again. Scoring touchdowns: Cozart --------- 12 points Brooks --------- 1 point McKenzie, Tennessee--September 19, 1941 The McKenzie Rebels defeated Ridgley Greentide 20-O.
