FOOTBALL ' FRONT-flfrCr1rmick, Lawndar, Shearer, Cawlier, Asfler, Campodoniro, Smith, flloeller, Lifvprnrzn, Conrh Hoo1'er, Cole S'l'.-xNDING--Sluiflr, i'lfI11thetL's, Richardson, Lippert, fUcGinnis, Ifl'llIIlIIll', Ilvlllflff, flnderson, Bruce, Steffens, Wyfigllf. After having the most successful football season in the history of the school in 1941, the season of '42 went in almost complete reverse for the fighting Cowboys of Wyoming High. With the loss of a complete team in the graduating class, an inexperienced Cowboy eleven took the field against Walnut Hills in the season opener, but came out on the short end of a I2-0 score. The following week lXIcGuffy's Green Devils journeyed from Oxford, Ohio, and stood off a last quarter rally by the home team long enough to eke out a I4-I3 decision. Wyoming encountered Reading High a week later, but suffered their first league loss and their third loss of the season, IS-13. Highlight of this game was the 103 yard return of a Reading kickoff by Quarterback Dean Bruce. Wyoming next played host to Dayton Oakwood, who very nonchalantly administered a very thorough whipping to the team, 58-0. Still groggy from the Oakwood encounter, the ailing Cowpunchers suffered their fifth loss of the season and their most humiliating one at the hands of the Hartwell Warriors, 12-6. The next game was with hionroe, who the week before had battled Lockland High to a 6-6 stand- still. A defeat would mean the longest losing streak in Wyoming football history, but the team re- alized this and defeated their rugged opponents, 7-6, in a thrilling last-half ball game. After an extra weeks' rest, elated over their first victory, the Cowpunchers traveled to Lockland for their annual night contest under the lights. Playing their best ball of the season, VVyoming held the Panthers to a O-0 tie until the final stanza when our opponents scored two touchdowns to our one. The team ended the not too successful season a week later by gathering their first league win over North Col- lege Hill in an unorthodox game of football. The starting team was composed of Bob Walter and Al Richardson at ends, Herman llrumme and Dave Steffens at the two tackles, Ray Lippert, Jack Lippman, and Walt Wright holding down the center of the line. The backfield consisted of Bill Anderson and Dave Campodonico at halfbacks with Captain Bruce at quarterback and Captain McGinnis at the tail back position. Capable substitutes were Bud Astler, Howard Shearer, Chick Smith, Walt Faught, Bill Hunter, Jack Lewis, Bill hlathews, and Harry Allen. This was their record: two wins and six losses, resulting in a three way tie for third place in the league. But a lot of fun and enjoyment was had by all who participated. The managers for the season were Dwight lWcCormick and Don Coleg the water boy was Happy Fuller. lUcCormick deserves special recognition, as he kept a record of the team's play throughout the season.
