Football -1937 For the first time in the history of Perry High Schol her football team ended the year 1937 tied for second place. In only one other yeor has Perry placed higher than this. The light Perry squad proved to be a strong defensive team. It did not chalk up many points, but it held their rivals from scoring. John Stacy proved an able captain. Perry had no outstanding players, although it placed some men on the all-county team. These players were Elroy Baxter, left-end; Robert Stinch-comb, left-tackle; and Robert Ramsey, right-guard. In the year 1934, Donald Brainard, another member of the 1937 squad, was mentioned for the allcounty team. It is said that Edward Brockway was one of the keenest quarterbacks in the county. The average weight of the team was one hundred and forty-two pounds. At the annual football dinner of the year of 1937, John Oliver was announced as captain of the 1938 squad. Robert Stinchcomb was accorded the honor of being the most valuable player on this year's team. The Perry High School team loses this year the services of six players. They are Elroy Baxter, left-end; Donald Brainard, left-halfback; Edward Brockway, quarter-back; John Stacy, full-back; Robert Stinchcomb, left-tackle; and Gordon Thompson, right-guard.
