The team ended the season with a string of twenty con- secutive victories on the gridiron, with the S. E, A. A. championship for the second consecutive time, with a total of 214 points to 16 for their opponents, and John Benedict and Gilbert Stoner receiving honorable mention on the All- State team.

Benedict repeated his perform- ance of the previous week, making four touchdowns and Schatte again making two. The aerial attack was a big factor in the game which ended 31-O in favor of Monroe.
