Y V 71 k-Y Wim A WWYYYYWJV H, 7 W. CAPTAINS MEET AT DAYTON Football Summary The football season of 1927 was the sixth successful season played by the Stet. benville High School eleven. Nine games were played and seven wins, one tie and one defeat were recorded for the Steubenville eleven. Outweighecl twenty pounds to a man the Steubenville gridders were defeated by Dayton Stivers by a one-point margin. Steubenville had a grand total of 239 points to their opponents 32. The team as a whole was light, and considering the stiff schedule it can safely be said that it was the greatest eleven on the records of the school. The backtield was the fastest ever witnessed on the local field and the line was one of the strongest. Six of the teams on the schedule were new foes: Pittsburgh Peabody, Zanesville, Struthers, Dayton Stivers, Youngstown Rayen and Cleveland Central. Peabody succeeded in holding the Stub gridders to a 7-7 tie in the second game of the season. Next year's team will be minus some of its biggest aids due to the loss of several men in june. They are Harold Freeland, james Ensell, William Coles, Thomas McGirty, Wallace Owen, Robert Given and Oral Pflug. - ' SCHEDULE S. H. S.--- .... 19 Canton McKinley .... ---- O S. H.

CLIFFORD SPELLACY- Captain-Quarterback and End i'Cliff started the season at an end position and showed up well. He was shifted to the quarterback post following the second game. He was injured in the Oliver game and was lost to the team for the rest of the season. WILLIAM Couzs-Acting Captain-Halfback Buddy's line plunging and superb runs were the mainstays of the team, while his previous experience and knowledge of team- work were great aids in helping him guide the reins of the skipper's post following Spellacy's injury. He will graduate this year. HAROLD FREELAND-End Landers was shifted from full back to end this year and played a good game there. He had a keen knowledge of defensive tactics and he was sure to get his man on the offen- sive. He will be lost this year due to gradu- ation. PETER REDUCHA-Halfback Pete'l put in his first year on the team and was a real threat to the opponents. His small- ness and elusiveness helped him a lot in break- ing away. He will be back next year.
