The team with its crisp blocking, hard tackling, and hard driving stood out from its opponents. With only one year of experience the boys did remarkably well in the fundamentals, blocking and tackling. Nodland, Evjen, and Hagert were the only three re- turning lettermen and around these men Coach Ny- gaard developed a well-balanced, hard driving team. All the games were won by large margins which gave all the boys out for football an opportunity to play. Henry Nodland was chosen captain. This year's team showed a fine cooperative spirit, with every man fighting for a position. During the first part of the season the team showed a lack of polish which Coach Nygaard quickly remedied. The following men reported for football: H. Nod- land, N. Evjen, T. Hagert, J. Erickson, J. Evans, E. Wollan, B. Hagen, R. Schroeder, C. Olson, H. Nord- strom, E. Ranum, E. Brevig, O. Disrud, E. Thompson. M. Vinge, M. Dahlseng, T. Ross, R. Berens. Starbuck 42: Cyrus 19 Starbuck opened the 1940 season with a decisive vic- tory over Cyrus, although inexperience in several positions showed up quite clearly. After a slow start which usually accompanies an opening game the team came back and really got the pigskin moving in the second half. Nodland and Hagert played fine offen- sive games with the latter contributing three long touchdown runs. Erickson, Evans, Hagen, Evjen, Nod- land, and Hagert made up the starting lineup. Starbuck 60: Graceville 0 The Starbuck gridders took their second game by running wild over Graceville. This proved to be an easy victory, as the Graceville lads could not keep up with the grueling pace set by the bucks. An outstand- ing feature of the game was the fine blocking done by both the line and the backfield. The rough spots and inexperience which showed up in the first game were greatly improved. The linemen gave a good ac- count of themselves by permitting only three first downs in the entire game. Starbuck 64: Hancock 14 Hancock was the next to go down to defeat at the hands of Starbuck. The first quarter was 1'ought on quite equal terms with the scoring being 13 to 7 in favor of the local team. The Bucks, however, settled down and played better football as the game progress- ed. The Bucks, although outweighed by Hancock, proved to be in better condition and wore down their opponents as the game went along. Both of the Owlfs touchdowns were made on passes. tContinued on page 275

S. Forde, has learned to understand and appreciate the value of good music. They have helped to make vari- ous programs throughout the year memorable occa- sions by apearing on them. The aim of the chorus- to develop genuine appreciation for good music, to train voices, and to be an active service to the com- munity, has been fulfilled by its fine singing. with good quality of tone and intonation. They phrase the music well. This is a very difficult type of music singers: but they are able to capture the spirit of the music very well. Their selection was Tenebrae Factae Sunt, a Latin text written by Pale- for young strina.
