. F. W. Sportsmanship Award 'V One of the highlights of the annual football banquet was the 'presentation ofa sportsmanship trophy by Commander William McTighre of the Veterans of Foreign XVars. The trophy is presented annually to the most sportsmanlike team in Shelby coun- ty. Pictured receiving the trophy is Albert Devoto, captain of Catholic I-Iigh's 1948 team. Any school would consider it an honor and privilege to receive the presentation, for it represents outstanding clean sportsmanship which is vitally important in the playing of any sport. The trophy is not awarded to the Champion team nor to the most im- proved squad in the city but rather is based entirely on the sportsmanlike play of the team at all times. Hats off to the 1948 squad. ,qv --1 il: , A,- 1 x xx' Iii: 1 i P a 1-2 me '14 'F'
