,M Varsity DICK CONNERS WEs'r1 HANsEN T he best spirited team I have ever coached. These were the words of Coach Lyn Waldorf in praise of our fine 1946 eleven. A great team that overcame a very dismal outlook to become a power to contend with during the last season's Big Nine Campaign. Such stalwart Navy performers as Morris, Mc- Kinley, Bairstow, Murphy, Stegen, Hansen, Travers, and Gorski overcame the handicap of inexperience to become a well-knitted Hght-ing organization that rose to the occasion in many instances. Now for a brief resume of the season: N.U.-IOWA STATE A driving rain ushered in the season, and after much tloundering about in the mud of Dyche Stadium, the Wildcats took the measure of a game swift bunch of boys from Iowa, 18-6. Touch- downs were scored by Dick Connors, Hap Murphy, dz Bruce Bairstow. INDIANA Bo McMil1in's pore little boys came to town with victory on their minds and slaughter in their hearts, but luckily escaped with their scalps, as they managed to come from behind to tie the amazing Purple 7-7, after having been badly outplayed the entire game. This proved to be the only blemish on an otherwise perfect season for 58 STAN Gonski Hmm STEGEN the Champion Hoosiers, and the boy that made an indelible mark was the Milwaukee flash , Stan Gorski, who recovered a blocked punt in the end zone for the N.U. score early in the first period. MICHIGAN One of those days when nothing seems to go right caught up with our boys, and as a result, the Wolverines were victorious 20-7. But we were not without our bright spots, as Dick Connors, The Candy Kid from Carmel High in Chicago got off on one of his typical solos, a 54 yard dash which resulted in a touchdown. Bruce Bairstow also got away on a terrific run, but alas and alack, it was called back, and this proved to be the straw that broke the camel's back. PURDUE The highspot of the entire season proved to be the Purdue game, with our boys pulling off the upset of upsets by conquering a highly favored Boilermaker eleven by a 26-13 count, thus top- pling the Maroon and Gold from the undefeated class. Was DeMoss's face red!! Scores in this game we1'e credited to Conners, Bairstow, and two for McKinley. It was a truly creditable per- formance and a fitting outcome for the annual Homecoming Game.
