R. BOWERSOX u45n F. HARTMAN H450 Peter was one of the small- est on the squad, but he surprised us with his ab- ility as a guard. Bob was a scrappy man as well as an accurate one. This aggressive center N will be missed. ' L. WERNER A H450 Werner used his height to intercept passes from al- most impossible positions. He was plenty tough as a line backer against his opponents. e D. ANDERSON ll45ll Dave was a great defensive halfback as well as a good man on Cory's offense. He also did the booting for his team. J. ANDERSON n45n Jim proved a thorn to all our aggressors this year. He was a very hard hitting guard. The team will suf- fer this loss. L. WILKINS Hllgll Lee was an en- ergetic player at all times.

J. SCOTT H14 51h WScottyU again this year was an excellent guard, having played as a letter man last year. He was always in there fighting. Cory will miss him in the future. R. HURSEY M45lI Bob could bring the ball back down the field when he re- ceived it at the safety position. He are ' could also elude opposing players on those line plays. FQQTBALL This was the first game of the season. Cory couldn't get going and went down in defeat 21-7. LIBERTY Playing without two of the first team, Cory came out on the short end again and lost 24-O. RAWSON Mt. Cory was out to get this one and really played a fine game and won 12-O. MT. BLANCHARD Mt. Blanchard had too much for Cory. The boys played one of their best defensive games but lost 27-O. ' VANLUE Vanlue thought they had it in the bag, but Cory looked like a championship team and beat 7-6. Vanlue had only been defeated by Mt. Blanchard, the county champions. ARCADIA The Green Wave went to Arcadia in high spirits and were overpow- ered by Arcadia who hammered out a l4-O win. MCCOMB The boys were really out to get this one. This was Mr. King's first year at Mt. Cory and he had come from McComb but Cory lost 24-O. ARLINGTON The Green Wave was over-confident--the lights and mud helped to defeat Cory 6-O.

GILBERT ll4Y7llv Eugene has two more years to give to the Cory grid- iron. He was a very hard hitting tackle. We expect much of him next year. BILL SCHAFER Bill used his weight to a good advantage both on the offense and defense. His opponent was completely bowled over when tackled by him. J. GREEN n H46 Jim could snatch passes whenever they were within his reach. He also was a scrappy defensive back. half Y JIM SHAFER n46u Jim was one of the best .backfield men. He was be- coming a real threat to the opposing teams, but early in the season he re- ceived a bad injury. Great things will be expected of him next year.
