The new leader placed a hard fighting eleven on the gridiron. Playing against powerful rivals, our team emerged with five victories, two ties fmoral victoriesl, and four defeats, scoring one hundred and twenty points to our opponents' thirty-seven. When the first call was issued, the response was prompt. Letter men led by Captain Molli showed their co-operation with Coach Myers by setting a good precedent for the new members. A squad of fifty assembled daily for practice, a sizeable crowd of likely material from which to choose. When the season opened the Irish greeted it with fight from the word go and won their initial game. With unfiagging courage and persuasive optimism, these anxious warriors showed what it really means to fight for the honor and glory of Old St. J. H. S., and they look back now over a record of which they may well be proud.

JOHN'S 12. SHADYSIDE 0 The Fighting Irish made their initial gridiron appearance on the Shadean field. After sixty minutes of hard and inces- sant play they emerged with a 12-0 tri- umph. Williams paved the way for the first touchdown of the season and Lom- bardy took it over. The best the Hess- men could do was to reach mid-field, and there they lost ground either through a blocked punt or a fumbled ball which was always recovered by St. John's. The Irish were not satisfied with a lone touchdown. Soon after they started again for mid-field. Hockinberry passed to Lombardy and the dashing half again stepped over the goal line. Another rush for extra point was checked. Ten first downs were made to Shadyside's two, and every play they tried seemed to work to perfection. ST. JOHN'S 0. MOUNDSVILLE 13 The next game was with Moundsville on our home field. After some gruelling football, we were defeated by the heavier and more experienced Ellismen. In the first two quarters their plays could not be checked. Moundsville made the first and second touchdown during the first half. During intermission the Saints were prompted in changing their system of defense with the result that the visit- ing combination was held scoreless. We were beaten. but we fought back every inch of the way, and at no time was the game a walk away for the visitors. Although we did not succeed in scoring, we outplayed them as compared to the first half. ST. JOHN'S 0. UHRICHSVILLE 0 The third game of the season was fl 0-0 deadlock, battled on Uhrichsville's field. The Irish in this battle were cred- ited with a moral victory inasmuch as they were the Under-Dog . Evidently some of the sport writers were not fa- miliar with the Saints' abilities as they predicted a victo1'y for Uhrichsville DY various scores. Shifts were made in the line-up. and some of our regulars warmed
