llllllHHll The Greyhounds experienced an- other rather drastic season in their eight game schedule in which they were victors only once. Un the other side of the picture, however, much consolation comes from the fact that the victory was at the hands of the traditional enemy-Kansas City, Kansas, Blue Devils-also several players gained reco-gnition on the all-conference team as co-captain Bill Clawson and Ed Kaminski were selected on the second team and co-captain Bob Weis, Walter Ha- gan,.and Vonnie Lessley receiving honorable mention. It must also be remembered that the Hound squad was the smallest in the history of the school. The entire team aver- aged 160.5 pounds per man, the backfield carrying 149.5 pounds of it and the line averaging 167 pounds. Twenty-four letters were award- ed-eight of which were given to seniors. At the end of the season the team voted Bob Weis as the most outstanding player and Bill Clawson as next year's captain. Principia 13-M. J. C. 7 The Principia in the last five min- utes of play scored their eighth vic- tory in eleven years over the Grey- hounds l3-7. ' The Greyhounds led 7-0 until a substitute back, Godwin, turned into a last minute star by scoring two touchdowns. The last score was made with a mere 10 seconds remaining in the game. Until that time the Hounds played them off their feet. Kozar started Moberly's 69-yard touchdown drive by reeling off a 20-yard run and then followed with a pass to ,Lessley netting the same yardage. He was then joined by Clawson and Lierly in other driving gains and Clawson finally pushed it over from the one yard strip. John Burris converted the extra point. Chillicothe 18-Moberly 6 The first quarter was evenly matched and no scoring occurred until the second period when Hall, C. B. C. fullback, plunged over from the two-yard line after being set up by a long pass. Cn the very next play the Hounds donated an- other 6 points when they let the kick off rest in the end zone while a Duck fell on the ball for a touch- down. They didn't score again 'till late in the third period when Hall broke loose and ran 47 yards to score, All three times the slippery ball was too much for the Ducks to handle and conversion failed. Moberly's only score came in the third period when despite the mud- dy ball Kozar passed beautifully to Kaminski who raced twenty yards down the sidelines to score. Kozar's kick was wide. The fourth quarter found the Greyhounds desperately trying to catch up with C. B. C. by attempt- ing long passes but to no avail. Shurtleff 47-Moberly 0 The game with the Pioneers of Shurtleff, a four-year college and unbeaten for two yearsg outweigh- ed, outnumbered, and outclassed the Greyhounds and defeating them in the Homecoming tilt 7-0, was per- haps one of the best teams that has ever played on Greyhound soil. V Shurtleff kicked off and in the first seven minutes of play. The half ended with the score 20-0, but as soon as play was resumed the Pioneers took. up all loose ends led by Brugler and drove for 27 more points. The Greyhound offense was limited to only one first down but the Homecoming spirit was there throughout the entire contest. Al- though discoura-ged by the power- ful Pioneer attack, the team never let up, FORTY-SEVEN
