Nineteen thirty-eight Page twenty-five Athletics The 1937 Football Season OUR team this year showed improvement over last year's team. The team gained a lot of ground tho it failed to score. On several occasions, the hall was taken deep into the opponent’s territory. Our Homecoming game with Iowa was the high spot of the season. The teams battled to a 6 to 6 tie. Good offense and defense kept plays at a standstill during the greater part of the game but now and then our back field broke through for favorable gains and were then forced to punt on downs. The weather was ideal for football and although it was a little chilly, a large crowd turned out to see the game. Up at Minnesota, at their Homecoming, our team threatened to score twice, getting within a few yards of the goal, but in each case they were stopped by Minnesota and lost the game 7 to 0. Several Wisconsin fans were among the large crowd there. Promising young players are our hope for the 1938 season as several of the 1937 regulars will be missing. Scores W. S. I). 0 Stoughton 32 W.

As a fact the new modern gymnasium is said to have the best lighting of any gymnasium in a school for the deaf. Our basketball team with the same starting five as last year back, made another good showing this year winning about seventy per cent of their games. Some of the games were lost by only one or two points. Seasons Record w. s. D. 45 Milwaukee Silents 10 w. s. D. 34 St. Catherine 19 w. s. D. 27 Stoughton 19 w. s. 1). 69 Elkhorn 23 w. s.

Michigan, and Missouri, and then came from behind in the last few minutes to beat Indiana by a slight margin. 26 to 24. This was the final game of the tournament with both teams undefeated in the race for the championship so it is no wonder they put up such a hot fight in this match. For the second consecutive time and for the third time in the Central States Basketball Tournament history, our team won the championship. Wisconsin, having won the championship, received the large beautiful sun-gold trophy.
