Football History Led by Captain Walter Nelson, Ken Hi's Red and Black grid machine playing their second year as members of the newly organized W.19.l.A.L. AA class. enjoyed a very successful season, having been victorious in seven of the nine games in which it was a contestant. After the final eliminations, Ken Hi's team received third place in the league. Verona, a nonfleaguc rival, was the victim of a brilliant Ken Hi attack with a score of 33 to 0 in the s:ason's opener at the Fourth Avenue Stadium. The subsequent week the Glockmen,' faced Norwin, their first conference rival, on the local gridiron, and had scarcely any difficulty in defeating their oppon' ent with a score of 20 to 6. Continuing their victorious lead, Ken Hi journeyed to Wilkinsburg and won their second conference victory by defeating them by the score of 20 to 0. Braddock's team traveled to Ken Hi the following week to open their initial football game with the local school. The Flying Dutchmenn once more reached the peak of victory by the repeating of the score 20 to 0. McKeesport provided the Red and Black their first difficult battle on the Tube City's gridiron, but our boys were equal to the task and emerged with ,-a 13 to 6 victory, which was third consecutive winning decision. The Hilltoppers met Tarentum, our old traditional rival, at Tarentum the following week and felt the pangs of defeat for the first time when the Cats scored a surprise 12 to 7 victory over our boys. A record crowd of 10,000 spectators crowded the Ken Hi Stadium t.o ob- serve the well known Scarlet Hurricane team from New Castle give the home boys their first conference defeat of 13 to 0, in a thrilling and strenuous struggle. Still feeling the effects of two consecutive defeats, the Hilltoppers unleashed their pent up fury upon Allegheny High School and easily defeated them with their popular score of 21 to 0. This was the last home game of the season. Seven seniors participated in the last football game of their high school career when Ken Hi gridders played the final scheduled game with a victory over Clairton, 12 to S, on the loser's home field. We wish to extend our sincerest thanks to Coach Glock for giving Ken Hi a clean, hard fighting eleven, and developing one of the best teams to represent the Red and Black on th gridiron in recent years.
