Starting the season with a breath-taker at Superior, they came up to win in the last 43 seconds with a pass for a touchdown and a conversion making the score 7-6. For the remainder of the season, the Purple Wave waded through the opposition by deci- sive scores being stopped only by St. John s, the conference champions, in an upset 24-13. In a non-conference game against St. Ambrose in Davenport, Iowa, the Toms held the favored Ambrosians and out-played them throughout the game only to be beaten 6-0 when the St. Ambrose club scored after blocking a punt on the Tommy six-yard line. St. Ambrose players recognized the Purple Power-house by choosing Schaikoski, Mc- Cormick and LaRue on their All-Opponent team.
