The team won two games, lost four, and tied one. This record, when compared with those of other years, seems quite poor. However, there were many reasons why the team fared so poorly. XVhen Coach Saubert issued the call for football prospects, he was greeted by a group of about 150 boys. In this large squad there were only five who had had any playing experience. These were Captain Felix Bruni, Tom Disantis, Larry Knoebel, Jim Hannon, and Bill Smith. The squad as a whole lacked weight and this lack of experience and weight was too great a handicap to over- come in one season. Nevertheless. a fairly good first squad was developed and trained to carry the brunt of the attack during the season. This squad consisted of the following: Center, Lumb: guards, Owens, Barnes, Walsh: tackles, Bruni, Hannon, Smith: ends, Evans, Pronoldz halfbacksy Disamis, HERE ARE SOME OF THE EE1.Lows IN ACTION Merten.

After a months practice, the first game of the season was played against Lincoln High School of Milwaukee, a night game on Haertel Field. Lincoln, with a powerful veteran team, had to exert itself to its utmost Page Ninetyfeight

To those who maintained a high average in their studies for a semester and who were con- sidered worthy, a pin in the form of the letter signifying honor, was given. Any student elected to the Honor Society for three semesters was presented with a gold pin. In 1930 the Honor Society was affiliated with the National Junior Honor Society, forming the Lincoln Chapter. Students elected to this Society Wear the golden torch, symbolizing leadership. Members are elected by a committee com- posed of Junior High faculty advisers. the vice-principals, and the principal of the High School. Qualifications considered in the selection of members are scholastic achieve- ments, study habits, qualities of character displayed in and around school, services rendered, and the ability to lead and guide others aright, Page Ninety-seven

to defeat the Waukesha team by a l5 to O score. It was evident in this game that the team had a great lighting spirit but lacked experience and weight. This game gave Coach Saubert an op- portunity to test the worth of his men and to determine the weak spots in the team. After a week of experimenting and drilling. the team travelled to Wauwatosa to encounter its Q traditional rival. The game was poorly played by both teams, but Wauwatosa managed to exe- cute two plays well and each resulted in a touch- down. Waukesha was unimpressive. except in the last few minutes of play. when the Tosa goal was threatened. The final score was 12 to O. A week later. the boys met Cudahy and played a fine game of football. As a result they won their first game, 6 to O. The touchdown was made in the first quarter, when. after Pronald had blocked a Cudahy punt. Smith sliced through a hole over left tackle and ran fifteen yards to the goal. Cudahy was held in check by the stellar play of the line, by the fine running and blocking of the backfield. and by the punting of Smith. The next week found Waukesha meeting Washington Park High of Racine as the major event of the local homecoming program. Vxfaukesha held its own during the first half of the game, and the period ended with the score 6 to 0 in favor of Racine. However, in the second half the fellows seemed to fold up and Racine ran up three more touchdowns. The final score was Z5 to O and the Wau- kesha homecoming was miserably ruined. E32 42' Knoebel.
