B-11.5. Qlhg Qgmgt I Sl Z l Football practice started Sept. 9th, with about thirty men out for honors. There were only three letter men, Hausen, Betty and McNitt from the preceding year. Chances for a championship team looked rather small until after the Albion game, when it was seen that Rupert's chances were of the very best. They were made the most of. Whole credit goes to Coach Betty and his able assistant, Ransom Turner. McNitt, as captain, deserves much credit. As the season progressed it became evident that Rupert had a team worthy of the school whose colors it carried. After the Albion game, the first team was picked and on the following Friday they journeyed to Buhl where they won their second vic- tory. This gave the team the necessary start and from then on victory followed victory until the Twin Falls game where they were defeated for the first and only time during the season. In the first half of this game Rupert held the Twin gridders down to seven points, but at the beginning of the second half, three of Rupert's best players were disabled and from then on Twin had the best of the game. The men to graduate are: Adams, Bouse, Brickman, Keefe, Hausen, McNitt and McKevitt. THE LINEUP: McKevitt ........................................................

R i Q h t Halfback Subs: Breazeal, Hockaday, Hammer, Mackrill. Keefe and Breazeal both suffered broken collarbones which kept them out of the regular lineup. Rupert succeeded in placing one man on the rnvthical All- State eleven, Hansen. one of the fastest large men in the state. Anderson was placed on the second team and several others were mentioned. This season has been a most successful one and we hope that next year will be a repetition of this. '
