F0ll'I'llALL The 1951 M. S. football team cannot boast a winning season even though it played some very strong games. Oratory was our first opponent to hand us a defeat. Showing the lack of seasoning, we bowed by a score of 30-12. The highlight of the game was lack Throckmorton's interception of a lateral and fifty yard race for Morristown's first score of the season. Although blanked in the next game, Delbar- ton winning 19-0, the team showed vast im- provement in their defense. The last quarter saw Morristown threaten several times, but they were unable to score. Morristown then emerged from the next game in the role of victor by a score of 22-0 over Columbia Grammar. Herms scored twice and Lichtenstein one touchdown, a point after touchdown, and a field goal. Lichtenstein's field goal was kicked from the 23 yard line, covering a total of 33 yards. Pingry handed Morristown a heart-breaking defeat. With a minute and a half left in the game and Morristown leading 14-13, Pingry scored a touchdown and successfully con- verted, to win 20-14. With the team hampered with injuries from the Pingry game plus the general let-down from coming so close to winning, Englewood easily defeated us 25-7. On a cold, dreary day, Montclair Academy won 19-12. The only bright spots that day were Eilbeck's 90 yard return of the opening kick-off and Herm's amazing run through 35 yards of mud to score on a reverse.

Fred Van Arsdel and Dick Lichtenstein were entirely convincing as Dragoons. All other members of the cast merit ac- claim, which for lack of space. cannot be given here. However, if their successors are equally as capable, the operetta next year will again be one oi the brightest occasions on the School's calendar. at J 'x , ww

Fourth row: Solmssen, Baldwin, Edds, Seward, Smith. Morristown at least ended the season as though it were accustomed to winning as it rolled over St. Bernards 13-6. The plays which had proved most successful during the season -the reverse and fake-reverse - were called upon to score both touchdowns. Herms and Eilbeck collaborated on a fake-reverse with Herms going over to open the scoring. Later in the game, when St. Bernards was looking for a fake-reverse, Herms went over untouched on a reverse. Morristown should be proud of Captain Eil- beck and his team, for in spite of injuries and an early lack of experience, they never gave up fighting. s-nfpflluix. ,i, tv I-'.k:Jx 'Yin' 3 .lf fb -1. 0.1. 1112.-f at -2- , ' ' -U . 4 ff. .,q fe- I 'QL .gi -5 J-Q-'l r -L9 Q71 411 f'9' U d - GJ Q2 5,293 t 695, H32 152 0
