A large squad turned out a week before school, but spirits were damp- ened at the news that Norman Carl- ton. veteran quarterback, would not be back. Dean Hampton and “Chick” McMillen took reins in their hands, but two weeks later “C. G.“ appeared in suit. Backfield material of good caliber was so abundant as to outnumber the candidates for the line and two backfield combinations were formed, a heavy foursome for line plunging and a “pony quartet for aerial and fleetfooted charges. Strenuous prac- tices were held earlier than usual because of a September 23 date with the Hebron Knights. Midland had little trouble in knocking the Hebron lads for a 19 to 0 roll with the combined aid of Ellison and McGillis. Every sub on the bench reported to the referee at least long enough to feel regulation sod under the cleats. Top tow: Anderton. Obttg. Davit. Elliot. Engel, Fuhrmeiiter.
