Starting Five Returns Next Year To Provide Neucleus of Srong Team The Monroe Dragons, with only four return- ing varsity players and less practice because of an extended football season, got off to a slow start. However, under constant coaching of Mr. DeLay, the Dragons improved to win a few games and made good impressions against other strong teams. Prospects are bright for next year with the starting lineup and two substitutes returning. The county jamboree was held at Alsea where Monroe yielded to Philomath ll-lb, and to Alsea 0-IZ.
