J. BRACY n45n Johnny was a very spirited back. Many times from his linebacker position he smacked opposing ball carriers for losses.He was also very good in dodging the other teams' men. H4511 E. 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.
