Playing under the name of Shamrocks for the last year, the green and white of Spring Green High School had a most successful year. Under the direction of head football coach, Mr. Peters, and his assistant, Mr. Nielsen, the Shamrocks ended the season with an impressive 5 won and 3 loss record. The season opened against the Portage J. V. 's and the local team showed much promise of having a fine year. Mike McGinley scored a late' first quarter touchdown to bring the score to a 7-6 Portage half time lead. The game was won on a third quarter score by Dick Haas. The football season was then off to a good start! The first conference game was against the defending champions, Waunakee. It was a hard fought game until late in the fourth quarter when Waunakee's defense wore the Shamrocks down. The final score was Waunakee 27, Spring Green 0. The following week's game was played against a very improved Mazomanie team. The Shamrocks proved to be too much for Mazo to handle as the Green and White went on to win 14-0, with Mike McGinley and Bill Paulsen scoring. The season's fourth game saw Spring Green playing host to Sauk City. After 7 years, S. G. finally tipped the Cardinals 7-0 with a touchdown pass from quarter- back Dick Haas to left end Dick Kraemer. The Spring Green stingy defense stub- bornly held Sauk all night on a mud and rain soaked field, and intercepted four pas- ses in the fourth quarter. The next game of the season was Spring Green's final Homecoming with the Shamrocks meeting Prairie Du Sac. The Prairie team proved to be too much for the locals to handle this time. Two touchdowns high lighted Spring Green's efforts in a loosing cause, 24-13.
