Football Thr Hilltoppcrs hnd an unsuccessful season losing five out of six games. Couch Nogowk tried to build n strong team, but a shortage of boys and injuries was too much of a handicap. We won the first game ugainst the Alumni, 34 to 12, then lost to Minnesota. Michigan. Kocktori. III., Milton Union and Northwestern Military Academy. Francis Thompson and James I mg. n senior, were co-captain of the team. This was Long’ fourth year on the team. Claire La Forge was the smallest boy on the «quad but did a good job in every gome except that with Kockton when he could not play beenuse of s cracked elbow. The regular starting lineup was Claire “Midget I .a Forge and John Goetz at ends; Kugene Szejna and Jnck Hnthway at tackles; Alford Johnson and Buford Hunter at guards; Gilbert Meyer at center; Francis Thompson at quarterback; Guy Kelly and Walter “Pony Fidler at halfbacks and James Long at fullback. We hope the 1950 Hill toppers will bo more successful and win games for coach Nogosek. Basketball The W. S. D. Cagers ended their 1949 'ft0 basketball season with seven wins and ten losses. W.
