FOOT BALL The senior class is fortunate to have enjoyed during its last year one of the greatest athletic years in this school's history. The football tcum won six games und tied two, the first undefeated team since mustnehed player days in the dim past. We defeated Evansville and Woodstock and tied the Illinois School for Deaf who were champions in their conference. Five seniors took part in the football game . John Kuglit. rh. captain. alternate end and defensive halfback, was our scoring threat and managed to score in critical times of the game to win or tie—more noticeably in the N. W. Military Academy at I-ake Geneva and St Thomas of Rockford. 111. Mitchell Echikovitz handled the difficult position of quarterback which i a thankless task. Gerald Moser’ speed made him a good end in receiving passes, covering punts and in end plnys. Gerald weigh only one hundred twenty-eight pound and often played against much heavier oppo- nents. In the St. Thomas game he was outweighed one hundred pound by hi man. Both Kuglftxch and Heser have been strong backbones of our teams for five year . I-awronce Heagia played center and did his job well. John Davis, • new comer who has spent only one year nt W. S. D. played left guurd. The spirit of the team was perfect and it worked like a well oiled machine. The prospect of u good team this fall i bright as Mr. N’ocnum ha capable substitutes to fill the vacancies left by the departing grads. SCORES W. S. D. 25 W. S. D. 7 W. S. D. 11 W. S. D. 12 W. S.
