First call for practice brought out thirty-three men, only five of them being letter men. This didn't look very promising, but with the S. T. H. S. fighting spirit prevail' ing we had a team which we were proud of before the season was well under way. We are proud in stating that we won seven out of eight games. West Aurora, taking advantage of the opening game, defeated us. This loss just put more fight into the boys for the rest of the season and we won every succeeding game except the one against the alumni who brought out all their heavyweights and held us to a tie. The games with Amboy, Hinckley and Yorkville were comparatively easy ones but that which was played at Plainfield was a real battle. The fighting spirit of the defenders of the Orange and Black enabled the boys to come out on top. Page Twenty-five
