fffoi wg 1 Football '25 Racine started its football season this year laboring under the inexperience handicap that was the bane of the Black and Gold's athletic existence throughout the seasons of the different sports during '25 and '26. Racine lost its first game to South Division High School of Milwaukee, 15-6. Although fighting bravely and succeeding in pushing one touchdown across, Racine finally succumbed when the invaders drove two touchdowns through the R. H. S. defense. The following week Racine made the longest jaunt in the history of its athletics when Coach Cox took the squad to Marinette where men are lum- CAPT. PALJLSON berjacks and football teams are of huge proportions. The odds were all against Racine, but the game was the making of the Racine team. The line demonstrated that it was possessed of ample backbone, while the backheld was a co-ordinated machine. It was a great moral vic- tory for the Black and Gold, despite the 14-0 defeat the score showed. CAPT. EL14:cT Burris The next game was played on the following Saturday at Beloit and it was Racine's first Big Six conference tilt. The game ended six all tie. Shorewood lligh at Nlilwaukee came next. The game was played on a sea of mud and water that was inches deep. Frequent time-outs were taken to enable the referee to clean off the ball before the game could progress. Cash more's expert toe work was the feature of the game. He booted twelve points between the posts from difficult angles. Racine skidded to one touchdown and the game ended 18-0 with the Black and Gold on top, both literally and figuratively speaking. This game was one of the best swimming meets Racine has ever partici- ated in. P Nladison East lli was the next foeman. Racine Won 55-0. Dunaway was all four of the horsemen, and with the willing help of able team mates, the Galloping Ghost turned in the maiority of Racine's points. Ianesville defeated Racine the following week in a game that should never have been played. The field was covered with several inches of snow and throughout the game the blizzard was so bad that the teams could not be seen from the sidelines. Racine played the game when Ianesville became insistent, and fought like demons against a team whose superior weight and size slowly pushed the Coxmen back to defeat. The game ended 18-0. Racine battled Nladison Central High to a 0-0 tie at Nladison the following week. The Black and Gold sojourned inside the Orange ten yard marker several times but conldn't manage to score. The final game was the annual battle between Racine and Kenosha. The game was a one-sided affair featured by Racine's great battle against overwhelming odds and by the efficient work ofthe Keno tank corps composed of eleven young gentle- men of the heavyweight division. The score was 20-0. This was the Grst time Kenosha had defeated Racine in five years. l94l
