Victories over Blue Mound and Hound City, a loss to LaCyig-ze and cancellation of the Pleasanton game left Parker in second place in the Linn County Football ague. Molmd City was defeated for a second time during the season in a non-league game. Parker began the football season without a number of the players that comprised the undefeated team of 1938. The lettermen on hand at the opening of school were Capt. Davey, Crisler, Holderman, Higginbottom, Keitel, Lee, Prentice, Traul, and Dalton Troutman. In the opening game at Garnett,Parker was not outplayed as bad as they were outscored. Garnett had an unusually good team and a loss to them was not a disgrace. The following week, Parker lost to Westphalia at Parker by the season's largest score 41 to 0. Westphalia had a veteran team, so the loss was not a surprise. This was Westphalla's first win over Parker for many years. Blue Mound came to Parker the next week for the first league game and went home on the small end of a 6 to 0 score.Parker scored in the first quartergafter that the teams played on even terms. At our next home game Wellsville took the measure of the Panthers by a lone touchdown, 6 to O. This score was made in the last quarter on a long pass. Louisburg repeated the previous weeks episode by completing a long pass in the last quarter to defeat Parker 6 to 0. llost of the game was played between the two 20 yard lines. The next week, Parker traveled to Hound City for the second league game of the season and left with a 19 to O victory. A number of substitutes were used by Parker in this game. Having several open dates before the Thanksgiving game, Parker scheduled Hound City for a non- league game. Hound City was defeated by the identical score of the first game, 19 to 0. Thanksgiving Day was a dreary day in more ways than one for Parker. First, it was very wet and muddy, as rain fell during most of the game. Second, Parker lost the game 52 to O and with it the County Championship. Third, La Cygne was the first county school to score on Parker in the two football seasons of 1938 and 1939. La Cygne was undefeated for the season having only six points scored against them.Parker stood many chances to score but each time was unlucky and the chance resulted in a touchdown. Parker was not out-played as badly as the soore might indicate. The following lettermen will graduates Capt., Davey, Holderman, Lee, Keitel, Povenmire, Tranl, Brovm, Prentice, Collins, and Smitheran. Other boys receiving numerals are Wright, Crieler, Dalton Troutman, Captain-Elect Higginbottcm, Smith, Hare, Drake, Delbert Troutmen, Merrill, Byerley, Jack Troutman, Stroup, llc Fadden and Light.
