Bob Bostwick collaborated with Bob Downing on a short pass for the only score of the game. Final score 6 to 0. On a wind and rain swept field with the breaks against them the Demons were overcome by the Fairfield Trojans who were sparked to their 9 to 0 victory by German. Final score 0 to 9. A long journey brought the Demons into the territory of the powerful, heavier and more exper- ienced Ottumwa. Bulldogs. Playing their best game of the year although they were hopelessly out- classed, John Harp's fighting eleven made the powerful Ottumwa team work mighty hard to score a mere 13 points. Final score 0 to 13. Bloomfield invaded Case Field for the second home game of the year. With the scoring divided among our backiield and the line doing a good job of tackling and blocking the Demons easily con- quered with an 18 to 0 score. Final score 18 to 0. The Keokuk Chiefs journeyed to Washington o be defeated by a score of 6 to 0. Due to the expert ball handling of Franny Schneider and Dick Marshall, the Chiefs didn't cause much difficulty although the score was only 6 to 0. Final Score 6 to 0. The next game was against the undefeated Sigourney eleven. They remained undefeated by a mere score of 6 to O. Final score 0 to 6. The Demons were off stride and were soon behind in their game with Muscatine 19 to 0. They then woke up but were too far behind and lost 33 to 12. Final score 12 to 33. For the last out of town trip the Demons ventu'ed into the territory of Columbus Junction. Schneid- er started the fireworks by scoring in the first half During the second half Marshall behind brilliant blocking made his longest run of his career a dash of eighty yards. Columbus Junction was swamped by a score of 18 to 0. Final Score 18 to 0. On a. warm Armistice Day that was ideal for a football game, the Washington Demo.-s c'irnaxed one of their most successful football seasons in years. They did this by defeating the over confident Mt. Pleasant team by a score of 6 to 0. Mt. Pleasant was rated as a. tough team but the Demons were prim- ed and ready for the Panthers and defeated them to finish the season with five wins and four losses. Final Score 6 to 0. Those graduating this year are: Co-Captains Francis Schneider and Dave Livingston, Dick Marshall, John Perdock, Everette Miller, Bob Marble, Bob Downing, Bill Arnold. .4 FOOTBALL 1.

Burlington 25 Co-captains-Prebyl and Marshall The basketball season this year was a successful one even though the Demons didn't win a majority of the games. They threw a scare into the three league leading teams: Muscatine, Burlington and Ot- tumwa. Muscatine was behind all the game and nosed out the Demons ln the last minute 33 to 30. Ot- tumwa came from behind in the Last four minutes to win 36 to 29. Burlington overcame .a four point fourth quarter disadvantage to win on a free throw in the last second of the game. The home crowd saw many good and exciting games this year and were well pleased. The Demons won the Keota Section- al Tournament by defeating Wellman 57 to 23, Hedrick 39 to 30, Sigourney 28 to 27, and Keswick 42 to 28 in the finals. Washington was beaten in the district by the State Catholic Champions, Immacul- ate Conceptlon of Cedar Rapids. Special honor must be given Co-Captain Marshall, the most consistent scorer on the team, who was placed on the second all Little Six Team and made the honor roll on the all state team. Also honors must be given to Co-Captain Junior Prebyl, for his fine all round play, Davy Turner who made the honor roll on all state team: and to Everette Prebyl who held all state Walt Kochneff down to the fewest points he scored.

Ray West led the local team with twenty-one and one-half points, followed by Cross with 17 and one-fifth, Marshall with nine and one-fifth. Mt. Pleasant invaded case Field for the third dual meet of the season the visitors were defeated to the tune of eightyzone and one-half to seventy-eight and one-half The Demons again captured ten first places.
