High boys come prancing out ,on the field full of pep and vigor. The results of this pep were as follows: U There-Fairbury High There-Chenoa High Here-LeRoy High There-Normal High There-Bloomington High Here-Dwight High Here-Pontiac High Here-Morris High Here-Trinity High As a result of the above scores, we were third in the Corn Belt Conference and second in the Intercity race. We made our debut on September 15th. Bobby Johnston, the U. High captain, proved his leadership many times during the gridiron season. He lead the Corn Belt in the scoring loop. This year Bobby Johnston, Jerry Barker, Earl Fry, Johnny Wroan, and Art Biggs all put in their last performances, which were really great ones. U. High .finished the football season in a blaze-of-glory by defeating its old rival, Trinity, at the Homecoming game. Another specialty of this game was the presentation of the Queen and her attendants at the half. This year the cheering was really a credit to the school.
