Fl'eShI'TlCIl1 FOO'l'bGIl- the Iehermen of 'tomorrow 7L Each year the coaching staff of Van Wert High School provides a football class for the younger boys who hope to play varsity football. This is called the freshman football team. This year the beginners played five games and came out with the short end of the score: De- fiance 14-0, Coldwater 8-6, St. Marys 27-0, Delphos 12-0, and Shawnee 17-O. You must not criticize the coach or the players for this record for the simple reason that the boys were out there to learn the fundamentals of football and not necessarily to Win. sWith the basic training and the experience acquired this year, many of these players will be able to win positions on the Varsity come next fall.

Cougar Lettermen spark 'ss champs Once more Van Wert has had an undefeated football team, winning eight games and tying one. The Cougar seniors have been unbeaten two years in succes- sion and have lost only two games in their entire football career. This year it was more difficult than ever to 1'emain undefeated because the Cougars were the spe- cial target of every team. During the early part of the season the team, lacking experience. had a rough time, but with each win the boys gained confidence and played real football. Once past Toledo and Wapak, they rolled up the victories and climaxed the season by beating St. Marys and giving Coach Smith his hundredth win for Van Wert High. Besides winning honors as a team, the Cougars received some high individual honors, Named to the Western Buckeye League first offensive team were Larry Feeney, tackleg John Edwards, guardg Jim Jones, centerg Bob Young, fullbackg and Ron Dierks, halfback. Places on the first defensive League t.eam went to line- backers Jim Jones and Jim Dilbone. Dilbone also rated the All-State first team and Jones made the All-State third team. Bob Young was chosen for a position on the Ohio All-Star Team, which saw action in Canton in August. Congratulations to the team and the coaching staff on this record of two years without defeat. If anybody can do it, Smitty can!
