Five Gridders Make All-Valley Eleven FIVE Northern football stars were selected by the coaches of the Saginaw valley for posi- tions on the Saginaw valley eleven. Warren Bare, Iim Gallardo, Bud Fromholz, Ioe Lawson and Sam Carpenter composed the five, Warren Bare was the main- stay of the Viking forward wall throughout the season and was placed at left tackle. This was his third year as varsity tackle at Northern. In his first year as first string center Iim Gallardo proved he Noroscope was the best center, not only in the Saginaw Valley, but in the entire state. Best defensive end in the valley was Bud Frornholz, I-le not only played end well but kicked many points for North- ern. Outstanding running and blocking ability earned Ioe Lawson a halfback's berth on the all-valley team. The valley fullback position was awarded to Sam Carpen- ter for his generalship and line- backing play. THE Central lads fought hard, but they were no match for the Viking offense once it got under way. ' ln the last few minutes of the final quarter, when many of Northern's reserves were in, Central staged an 86-yard march, only to be again stern- rned by the Viking line. Points after touchdowns were rnade by Bud Frornholz, Pug Bare and Sam Carpenter, who also acted as quarterback and called the Vikings' scoring plays. Passes were intercepted by Lawson and Krupa-l..awson's being good for a touchdown and Krupa's for a l5-yard gain. The fine Work of Warren Bare, Iarnes Gallardo, Bud Frornholz, Ioe Lawson and Sam Carpen- ter, during this game and the merited their the all-valley entire season placement on eleven. Iames Gallardo and Warren Bare also were nomin- ated on the all-state team. This win gave Northern two legs on the Wildanger Trophy. Page 23
