The Summerfleld Football Squad opened the 1947 season under the direction of our new coach, Paul V. Parks. Though most of us were new, there was a large number of boys who were willing to ’sweat out the practices and participate in the game. With much patience, our coach drilled us day after day in an effort to get us accustomed to the rules of the game. With eagerness to learn, the majority of the boys were present each day for practice. Each day we learned something new. As time went on, we learned many new plays, practicing them until we had them timed perfectly. Finally, we were ready to play the first game of our nine scheduled games. Our first opponents were the Gibsonville ele¬ ven, whom we held to a scoreless tie. Twice we defeated Walnut Cove with them scoring only seven points in the two games. Though we did win two games and tied one, we were defeated on several occasions. Guilford turned us back for a 40-0 victory, and Jamestown celebrated its Homecom¬ ing Day by overpowering the Summerfield eleven. We challenged Bessemer to a head-on clash at Memorial Stadium. Though we fought hard,we proved to be no match for them and the score was 34-0 in their favor. On this occasion, Doggett, one of our linesmen, sustained a leg injury and was unable to play the remainder of the season. Although our season was not a complete success, we learned something that will be helpful to us throughout our lives. » m MMWWWK
