FOOTBALL SQUAD With seven veterans, a limited supply of substitutes, and a liberal amount of intestinal fortitude, the ’44 football season began with Coach Corby audibly fearing the worst. By hard and long practice Coach welded a team together that fought hal'd and can well be remembered by the students of R.C.H.S. One victory and five defeats was the record of the ’44 team. The greatest weak spot was not having the reserve necessary to fill in for tired and injured men.

FOOTBALL LETTERMEN Albert Green ... Bob Hartsock ... The captain of the 1944 grid squad. Chick played guard, end and halfback proving he was an all-around player when it came to playing football. The center and linebacker,that never knew when to quit, injured or otherwise. Harold Barker... The tall, blonde, rugged end who will really be missed on the defensive next year. Alvin Neunaber... The pride of Bethalto entered Roxana for his fourth year and made a name for snagging passes from most any angle. Fred Berry ... The quarterback for the Shells who showed fine team spirit and always had a great zeal to win. Joe Bean ... A tackle who did a great job for Coach Corby. If the draft board can’t locate him by next season he will surely do his share again. Stuart Venable ... He finally got that hard-earned letter for which he waited four years. Glen Bean ... A guard who could snake through the line and stop the play before it could get started. Worthy Exton ... The hard-hitting fullback. When he tackled them, they knew it, and how! Dean Denby ... Hard-driving halfback. Made good his first year at Roxana. He was always in the game battling. Twenty-six
