The season’s highlights were the 41-0 romp over Humboldt and the 6-0 blow to previously undefeated Syracuse. This was coach Smith’s second season. The regular starting eleven were Larry Anderson L.E., Jim Thompson L.T., Gordon Scott L.G., Bill Snyder C. Sid Borcher R.G., Larry Graham R.T., Roger McDougle R.E., Bill Mawhiney Q.B., Tom Allison R.H., Harry Allison F.B., Ro Crawford L.H. Duke and Chub spoil his plans 27 Larry Graham, Bill Snyder, Sidney Borcher, and Roger McDougle were the returning senior lettermen in the line of this year's Pawnee City Indians. They had a tough job leading our small inexperienced ball club to a winning season; but with a great deal of hard work and tremendous cooperation from the underclassmen the season was a success. Larry Graham, Bill Snyder, and Sid Borcher were honored by being selected to the Southeast Border Conference All-Conference team. Co-captain Larry, a 250 lb. tackle, with plenty of speed and agility was one of the best, if not the best tackle in the conference. Larry was also a great help in lifting the boys' spirits and getting them fired up for ball games. Co-captain Bill, better known as Duke, a 185 pound offensive center and defensive linebacker played heads up ball all year and was a terrific morale builder and leader. This was Bill's second consecutive year of being selected to the All-Conference team. Sid, a 175 pound guard, made up for his size by out maneuvering his opponents and a great deal of in- testinal fortitude. He was a great competitor and it will take a tremendous effort for some underclassman to step in and fill his shoes.

And then as though the evil spirits had been cast out, the team surprised all by win- ning the next four games, including the first game of the Class C Tournament. Throughout the season the Indians were interesting and exciting to watch and had a good, loyal following. 29 The First Ten FIRST ROW: Tom AUtson, Kent Olson, Sid Borcher, Larry Mawhiney, Harry Joe Allison, Bill Snyder, Roger MeDougle, Anderson.
