Coached by Bill Cham- bers, Oberlin High School battled its way to the state championship in 1899 in foot- ball. Dr e s s e d in turtle-neck sweaters, with no helmets to protect their pates, the team played a he-man game. With L. VV. Cheney as cap- tain and E. Davis as manager, the team played ten games in the fall of 1899, being de- feated only in the season's opener against the University School in Cleveland.
