He was moved to end at the last ofthe season. lJoN Col. 11:-Q uartr' r fflaptainj Don was a good captain and field general. His passing and running pulled the team out of many a tough spot. This is Don's last year with the squad. Ile was out of' a few games this year heeause of a had knee. Bon I.E1'lMAN-'-I1lllf' lioh is the lightest lll6 IlllN'l' of the team. excellent in hard plunging and hard fight- ing. He worked hard hut his light weight handieapped him. This is Bolfs fourth year with the squad. llis loss will he a sore hlow to the team. Bon clASSIDY?fiI1IIl'l1 lioh was a elever gual'd. lle would hreak through the line and throw the haeks for a loss many times when it seemed as though it were impossihle for anyone to get through at all. Next year it will he hard for Uoaeh to find someone to replace him. This was liolfs fourth year on the squad. .I ouN EVANS-filllf Evans will he missed very mueh hy next year's team. VVhen there was a man needed to fill a hole or receive a pass, .lolumy was the man to do it. Evans also was good go- ing around end. Ile was slow starting, hut after he got started he seldom stopped. IiAllLAN RADIKEII-1'l1Iu Back Hack A plunging, running, kicking, Hghting, fullhaek. Haek was always there with the goods whenever a punt was needed. Hr' eould kiek a hall from almost impossible plaees. His end run at Ada won that game. We are sorry that this is his last Vf ll' 1 . l'll!ANf'l'iS SH0l'K'I'llI!l and f2Illl7'ff'I' rrlfafu Fat was a cool, eolleeted player at all times. During f'ole's ahsenee Fat played at the quarter position. llis intereeption of the opponent's passes in times of stress kept their seore down many a time. Page Twwnly
