FRESHMAN-SOPHOMORE FOOTBALL This year's Freshman-Sophomore football squad had a fairly successful season. Under the supervision of coaches Ream and Funkhouser a powerful and well balanced team was produced. It will undoubtedly furnish some fine candidates for next year's varsity squad. The schedule for this year consisted of six games. Of this number New Trier won two and lost four. The opening game was played at Proviso and resulted in a 15 to 0 defeat for the Green and Gray. Our boys also lost the next game by a score of 13 to 0 when they tried in vain to hold Morton on the opponents field. The third game of the season also resulted in defeat. This time the New Trier team lost by a score of 32 to 0 to the powerful and fast Oak Park team. However, in the next game their luck changed and New Trier was victorious by a score of 12 to 0. The following week Deerfield invaded the New Trier field but was sent home with a 16 to 0 loss against their record. The last game of the season was played against Evanston at Dyche Stadium. The game was very even throughout the four periods. However, the Green and Gray was edged out of a victory by a single point. The score was 7 to 6 in favor of Evanston. Knight was the most outstanding player on the team. He played at half back and scored most of New Trier's touchdowns. McFadzean and Happ also played at hall back and made good showings. McKinnon played at full back. Farwell and Rail directed the team's activities from the quarter back position. At end Bridges and Wilder did their best. Fox and Burrill worked at tackles. White and Struggles played as guards while Kyle and Burrill snapped the ball to the backfield. Page 24

k Mr. Grater Church Finlayson Mr. Ream HEAVYWEIGHT BASKETBALL The team terminated a very successful season, winning twelve out of fifteen games, and tying with Oak Park for the Surburban League Heavyweight Championship. Prac- tice games were played with Englewood, Lake View, and Hyde Park. New Trier de- feated all of them very decisively and approached the league season. The team was composed of Joslin and Co-Capt. Church, two of the first three high scprers in the league, Gordon, Sinding, and Co-Capt. Finlayson. Injuries to Finlayson and Warble, which put them out for the rest of the season, and the graduation of Gordon during the mid-semester holidays severely handicapped the team, but they were replaced by Williams and Wolff, both very capable guards. Letter certificates were awarded to Co-Capt. Frank Church, Co-Capt. Colin Finlay- son, Robert Gordon, Thomas Sinding, and Leonard Wolff. Letters went- to Albert Clay- ton, Victor Hansen, Edward Howard, Richard Joslin, William Kidd, Fred Mitchell, Richard Preston, Alan Rossman, Clyde Warble, and Cecil NVilliams. The senior man- ager's letter went to George Cole. First Row--C. Williams, L. Wolff, T. Sinding, F. Church, R. joslin, F. Mitchell, R. Clayton. Second Row-W. Kidd, R. Preston, R. Wagner, A.
