The Scarlet and Black Football Season Point Place ended its football season with a brilliant year in the Maumee Valley League. They lost only one league game, and that was to the mighty aggregation from Bossford, They failed to win their first two games, which were not league games. However they were an incentive to our boys because they realized they would have to fight for the re- mainder of the season. Rossford won first place in the League, and the Cardinals came second. DeVilb1ss Point Place opened its 1934 schedule by traveling to Devilbiss High School where they played under flood lights. The Point was slightly outweighed by DeV1lbiss, but a fight- ing 'Cardinal' eleven made the 'Tigers' earn their gains. The opponents scored two touchdowns after long passes had placed the ball near the goal. The Pointers were in a scor- ing position only once, getting as far as the two-yard line but they lacked the punch to score. The final score was Devilbiss 13--Point Place 0. Dcrrell, Wilson, and Bender were outstanding on the line, while Tassell and Faunce did excellent work in the backfield. lauseon On September 28, an over-confident Point Place eleven travelled to Wauseon where they lost their second game of the season. Point Place outweighed Iauseon by a slight mar- gin. lauseon played hard, clean, football and managed to score two touchdowns in the second quarter. The point after the touchdown was converted, making the final score 13-0. 'hi tmsr The neat week, in the first home game of the season,the Cardinals were held to a scoreless tie by lhitmer. the visi- tors created some excitement in being the only team to carry the ball across the goal, but it was called back as an op- posing linesman was off-sides. The Cardinals showed greet improvement over the last game, but the lack of scoring punch and several unlucky breaks kept the Cardinals from winning the game. Sylvania Point Place chalked up its first victory in football up- on defeating Sylvania 26-0. Chuck Hendee intercepted a pass Page Seventy-seven

Rossford With the championship of the Maumee Valley League at stake, the Pointers played Rossford at Swayne Field. Ross- ford's superior line and efficient backfield swept into motion and scored two touchdowns in the first quarter, one in the second, and one in the final quarter. The Cardinals had an excellent chance to score when Maiers intercepted a lateral pass, and ran to the five yard line, where he was stopped. The Rossford eleven held Point Place on downs.
