Many of these men were new to the game and the boys were handicapped in that there were not enough men to give them a good scrimmage. Later in the season many men dropped out until at the end. of the season there remained only thirteen. G L E N W 0 0 D The season opened with Starbuck opposing the veteran Glenwood team. As this was the first game of the season for Starbuck very erratic football was played. The final whistle found Starbuck at the short end of a 72-0 score. PARKERS PRAIRIE Our first home game was played with Parkers Prairie. In this game the Starbuck warriers got off to a good start but could not work the ball over for a score. The Parkies consequently emerged victorious with a score of 8-0. M 0 R R I S The next Friday the team journeyed to Morris, determined to repeat the defeat given Morris the year before. However, we were unable to cope with Morris' big team. The final score was 46-0. W H E A T 0 N In this game every player on the Starbuck team played good football. The inttrference worked fine and the defense was like a stonewall. When the final whistle blew we were leading the strong Wheaton team by a 19-0 score. This was the only game that the Starbuck team functioned as smoothly as it was capable of doing. H A N C 0 C K Starbuck rad things their own way with the Hancock team. Wide end runs and spectacular passes featured this game. The score at the end of the game was 40-0. - M I L A N The final game of the season was played at Milan. Several of the regu- lars were crippled as a result of previous games and this handicapped their preformance. Starbuck started the game with a rush andiseemed to have everything their own way but could not put the ball behind the final chalk mark. However, Starbuck weakened as the game progressed and Milan was able to run up three touchdowns plus two points. All their touchdowns were made on passes. Late in the game Starbuck made a touchdown on a forward pass and also added the extra point making the final score 20-7 . This was the final game for two regulars. Torbin Wold and Monnie Skaret, who will graduate this spring.

BOYS BASKETBALL Back row-Carlton Brevig, Calvin Pederson, Robert Merrill, Arnold Berge, fCoach Engebretsonb, Ovid Smedstad, Arthur Barsness, Torbin Brenden. Front row-Reuben Olmeim, Monnie Skaret, Kermit Knutson, Franklin Noyes, Howard Jorgenson, Kermit Wollan, Arthur Nordberg. Basketball practice wasn't started until Christmas vacation because the new gym wasn't completed until that time. About fifteen men respond- ed to coach Engebretson's call. During the two weeks vacation the practices were supervised by Olaf Engen and Elmer Aalberg. T H E A L U M N I The first game of the season was played with the Alumni. Neither team had benefited from much practice so the game produced an even match. The Alumni had three regulars from last year's squad, Aaberg, Gorder, and Anderson and with Helgeson,Dahlager and Nordberg they composed a strong team. The High School boys, however, held the upper hand throughout the game and the final score was 18-14. STARBUCK INDEPENDENTS The second game was played immediately after vacation with the Bucks . The Bucks had the advantage on account of their many years of experience. The final score was 26-16 in favor of the Independents. On March 12, the Bucks and the High School team again tussled. In this game the high school boys showed their superiority by smothering the Independents by a score of 26-4. The Bucks didn't get a field goal, for every attempt at the High School defense failed. C Y R U S On Jan. 17, Cyrus came here determined to give us a drubbing. This was the first high school competition tackled and the boys had a chance to show their ability. Cyrus was unable to work through the Starbuck defense and were held to one field goal. The final score was 19-5. On Feb. 8, We gave Cyrus a return game at the Cyrus gym. Although handicapped by the low ceiling the final whistle found us at the long end of a 133-0 count. 1 1 illlii fl Q. If if x: fl - I ,l ,,. K' rii' ,. 1 if L. IIN iff if Q Suii,-f' .
