ElNER ON CLASSROOM DUTY Recuperating from .our recent defeats, we were suddenly taken off guard by The New Richmond. The tussle inaugurated our first play under the new lighting system over Burton li. Nelson Sea. A slow continuous salt-water spray was the only thing that marred the evieninig as il2iner's boys' proved they could fight, by scoring a 19 to 6 victory over the roaring Tigers. The season's record was set by the passing combination of Shafer, Wfangen, Quilling, and Onstad as they made direct hits with 18 out of 23 passes. ln the midst of homecoming festivities, a surprise attack was unleashed by a spirited Hudson crew. .Xlthougli lVlenomonie put up a terrihc fight, the Blue and Wfhite proved too much for us, and we went down 12 to O in the last scheduled game of the season. At the animal decoration ceremony, which is held as a final tribute to the men, Commander Lund expressed his gratitude to the boys for their co-operation with him. In return, the players showed their appreciation for his Hne leadership by presenting him with a portable radio. lt is with reffret that we see fine men like Berff, Bilse, Bradford, Mense, Z3 b Olson, Quilling, Sneen, Tliibado, lVang'en, and XVeber leave our ship for uncharted seas.

Dirmies X'Vith one victory under its belt, the Warriors steamed on to Chippewa lfalls for a practice battle. Although the outcome did not affect the war for the Middle Border Crown, the 'lfalls eleven made more than a sham battle out of the tilt. High with homecoming spirit, the Cardinals repeated the performance of two years ago when we invaded their shores, scoring on the first play of the game and entirely outplaying our squad. Uur 32 to 7 shellacing was sent out all over the conference world as a satirical note of triumph for the revenged lialls crew. Next, we were confronted with a short cruise to River lfalls where we were to meet, supposedly, the strongest team of the seven game series. The Falcons made the going tough and battle casualties were heavy as the two ships limped honieward. The mighty battleship River Falls was the victor. 27 to O. Again venturing out into poisonous waters, The lillsworth was chal- lenged. It proved another fruitless battle and we went down again, this time 20 to O. '48 MEINOMIN PAGE-63
