Eight wins brings championship to The Indians inaugurated night foot- ball by winning eight games a11d losing one. The larger crowds certainly did not complain of lack of action and saw in the Indians a team that won, but won by its dogged perseverance. Vsually slow in starting, they never quit until the final whistle found them in the winning col- nmn. Fortunately there were a number of good reserves, whom Coach Robinson used to advantage in building the team around the returning veterans. The coach substi- tuted freely in every game. Under the leadership of the honorary co-captains, Otis Hall, Norman Willbond, and Herman Hudnell were the following lettermen : Clarence Bowman, Ray Braun, llon Campbell, Dennis Donaldson, Lyle Franklin, George Goodson, I'aul Hovey, .Iohn Johnson, John Marshall, Valentin Nasipak, Robert Ohly, Jack Robinson, Warren Shaw, Robert Van Ausdale, and Ted Wigton, manager. ELYRIA 35, OBERLIN 0 The Indians lost the opener to a vet- eran Elyria team that had been develop- ing for three years. Although Oberlin reached scoring territory several times, they could not overcome the weight and experience advantage of the Red Raiders. In spite of the loss, much good experience was gained by the many substitutes. Onnnmx 26, GAnF1ELn HEIGHTS 0 This game was the tirst played under the new lights of Morris Field, and the two thousand fans were more than satis- fied with the team's showing. After a slow first quarter, the Indians let go a barrage ot laterals and forward passes that carried them over the goal line four times. Nag: tm OBERLIN 13, BEREA 12 After allowing Berea to tally the first touchdown, the Ieillll got down to business and scored a few minutes later, WVillbond scoring the decisive extra point. Berea again scored, but in the final minutes, Willbond tossed one to Hudnell, which he carried over for tl1e winning score. This game was not in the bag for either tealn until the final gun. OBERLIN 20, FAIRVIEW 13 The home-town supporters were again satisfied at seeing the Redskins take the third in a row. The boys being 0Vel'-CO1l- fident, they did not defeat Fairview by the expected margin, but their stubborn- ness not to give in brought them out on top. ORERLIN 40, XXVILLARD 0 ln the easiest game of the season against a weakened Willard team, Ober- linis scoring machine hit top stride. The entire squad played, and at no time did VVillard threaten to score. The victory was celebrated by a steak dinner at Nor- walk. OBERLIN 26, RocKY RIVER 0 In this, the only daylight game of the season, the Indians cinched the league championship. With Jackie Robinson carrying off individual scoring honors, this game was won by sustained power, the Indians not being forced to take to the air. OISERLIN 31, NORWALK 6 By resorting to the air, the boys showed their dads how they had won live i11 a row. 'tWillbond to Hudnell,' ac- counted for three of the scores, with Ohly and Campbell tallying the other two. The single Norwalk touchdown was the .result of a Sleeper that caught the Indians back on their heels.
