FOOTBALL TRECHTITES of the present generation will always I ixx ? remember the disappointing football season of 1928. i y New Utrecht has always prided itself upon its fine elevens, y and, although the truth may hurt it is but just to say that 5 2 the team of 1928 has compiled the worst record of any New Utrecht eleven since the featherweight team of 1916. Not since 1920 has New Utrecht bowed to Brooklyn Prep on the gridirong not until the past season has St. Johnis prevailed over the Green and Wliite. Primarily it was the lack of any sort of adequate replacement material that was the main feature of the many defeats. At the beginning of the season 'Coach Zysman was faced with the stupendous task of building the team from the ground up. The light line that made its debut in the Jefferson game was but a shadow of the steamroller type of forward wall that it has been the New Utrecht tradition to maintain. Captain Hy Dvorkin at guard, Bethill at tackle, and Kirstein at center played inspired football but the rest of the line, although fast and willing lacked beef and that indefinable spark that is acquired only after weeks of hardening in the crucible of Interscholastic football competition. The backfield, playing behind a weak line never had an even chance to display its offensive powers. Edgar, Rice and Ceravolo, of whom nothing more than good ground gaining abilities were expected at the beginning of the season, rose to the occasion more than once to show inspired defensive play. Nextiyear the football fortunes of the Green and Xllhite should take a con- siderable rise, for Coach Zysman will have good veteran material. The unfor- tunate break in athletic relations with Poly Prep is to be deplored and the sub- stitution on our schedule of Erasmus Hall, an old rival, and Brooklyn Tech compensate us for thc chance of a victory over the Dyker Heights institution. but we must learn to take our losses with a smile and a song, and our gains with a wink and whistle and to set our eyes on the future with the determina- tion that next time victory shall be ours.
