ffwidaewdawdzf -14 20,- The 19411-1953 edition of the W.H.S. Owls came away from their season with a victory no other XW.H.S. team has been able to accom- plish. This victory was the 19-14 season opener win against Gettysburg. This was one of the most satisfying wins ol' this year's Seniors' foot- ball record here. This year's team left a creditable record of themselves wherever they played. The Owls played the best teams Mary- land had to otler and lost only 1 game by more than 7 points and that to a powerful Fort llill eleven, Even in this one, the Owls won everything but the ball game. The success ol' next year's team will hinge on the supply of Ends and Tackles for this is where graduation will hit the hardest. The team has several backs that will be able to fill the capable shoes of Bill Mann and Andy Tawney. Graduating Seniors from the squad are Co- fiaptains Eugene Houck and Bill Mann, Urban Bowman, Charles Sprinkle, joe Shilling, jim Lewis, Sterling jones, Andrew Tawney, and Paul Bowersox. All owe an unpayable debt to their coaches: Ruby, Vodenicker and Hersh. dry' Senior, J X jim Lewis catching pass, Sophomore jim Head, Qu'u'terback was sec ond highest scorer. Senior Andy Tawncy played a good halfback. Picture below shows jim l-lead, Owl Qut 1'- terback, sneaking over for 6 points in Gettys- burg game. Owls won this one, 19-1-l. Sophomore Mel Long. was Owl's leading scorer.
