FCCTBALL The Bulldogs started the '46 season with a squad of capable gridsters on line and in the backfield. They wasted no time chalk- ing up their first victory by defeating Iowa Wesleyan l8-U. They continued to drive until the final gun of the last game. They fin- ished with a splendid record which was five wins, two ties, and two losses, the losses going to a strong Carbondale team and the Cape Girardeau Indians who were the M.l.A.A. champs. Darrel Gourley, an expert passer and excellent quarterback, and Kenneth Gardner, captain and right tackle, were chosen as All-Conference players. Gardner was chosen also to play in the Mo-Kansas game in Kansas City. ln l945 we saw football come back to the campus after a lapse of three years, and in l9-46 we saw an even stronger come- back. Coaches limmy Dougherty and Boyd King deserve to be congratulated on the record of the '46 Bulldogs. COn page 155 Upper Left: Drennan, fullback, one of Dough- erty's strong reserves.
