lt., lf' Caught in the act FOOTBALL 1936 Coach Howard Wood celebrated his twenty- seventh year of coaching at Washington High School by producing a team that turned in the first perfect record in fifteen years, being untied and undefeated in eight games and giving the state the greatest showing of superiority in the history of Eastern South Dakota Conference foot- ball. Pound for pound, this team may have been Washington High's best as it was one of Wood's lightest teams, but as there is no method of com- parison, no statement to this effect can be made, As usual, Wood put in his call for candidates about a week before school started. Answering this call were eleven lettermen, Co-captains Hall and York, Fairall, Feragan, Gildemeister, Jacobson, McCormick, Richards, Ridgeway, Wilson, Witte, be- sides numerous other prospects. Opening the season, the Orange and Black downed the Canton grid-machine by the score of l2 to O. Canton, a hard tackling, determined eleven, made Sioux Falls' blocking look poor and their ball handling very loose in the first half. After missing three chances to score, Sioux Falls came back in the last half to score twice, once on a pass, They looked good defensively the whole game, allowing Canton no first clowns. ln this game, They fly through the air Q Y Q..,,,, wav .2 Missed - T H Voels End R, Richards J Jacobsoa Fullback Halfback D Forney W Bessler Center Center Twenty-nine , ' ,rf W'F ?fFfE.

These men, both letterrnen, were important cogs in the Wood machine last year, but this year, their leader- ship has acted as a sort of tiring pin or spark plug. They made a good team great, and established a record for leadership, sports- manship, and fair play that future captains will have a hard time liying up to. 45' 1? l MJT P if .ix flu Y, - G Hall End . of yj i .VJ York and Hall S.

Wood ogoin showed thot he would use on open style of ploy. ln the next gome, the Wood mochine completely outclossed Rock Ropids 63 to O. lt showed ci com- plete chongeobout in form, gothering for itself fifteen first downs ond holding Rock Ropids to none, The scoring wos well divided in eoch of the four guorters, even if there wos much substituting. Thirty-five W. l-l. S. ployers sow oction ond oll hondled themselves well. The next gome brought the first rood trip when the Worriors invoded the Aberdeen Eogles' nest. There, they completely plucked the Eogles' toil- feothers to the score of 39 to O. Sioux Folls quickly scored on the highly touted teom, ofter which Aberdeen broced briefly, Soon, however, the Wor- rior porode storted ond they scored in every quor- ter, gothering fourteen first downs ond yielding two. Though twenty-two men sow service, they seemed weok only in one thing, poss defense. Returning from Aberdeen, the Wood mochine next encountered the freshmon teom of the- Uni- versity of South Dokoto, which they defeoted 25 to O. The Pups, olthough they were much heovier, locked offensive orgonizotion ond relied mostly on punting, rnoking only one first down. The Wor- riors odded life to the froy by their hord blocking, long runs, ond their shorp-hitting, smoothly exe- cuted offense. A Witte D Terry Holfbock End Touchdownl The Line Opens Up X
