For the second straight year, Yo-Hi has won the All Japan Championship by beating Narimasu the best two out of three series. Leading factors behind Yo-Hi's drive for the champion- ship were hard practice, preparation, strategy, excellent coaches, a co-operative student body, and the team's constant will to win. The team, acting as a car, stalled during the first game, then shifted to low and gained speed constantly during the season. By the end of the season Yo-Hi had a team of steam rollers on offense and stop signs on defense.

YO-HI 13-NIHON 21 The Yo-Hi Red Devils opened up their 1955 season by bowing to a strong Nihon University team 21-13. Leading 13-7 at the end of the third quarter, Yo-Hi couldn't stop Nihon in the Hnal stanza. The Devil offense was superb with Lynn scoring on two long runs, but the defense hadn't had time to jell enough to stop Nihon's swift backs. YO-HI 54-GAKUSHUIN 6 Yo-Hi turned loose a herd of hard running backs at Seaside Field as the Devils scored in every quarter to completely outclass Gakushuin 54-6. Six different backs and two ends had a hand in scoring as Yo-Hi racked up its first foot- ball win. Tom Hemingway led the Devils to the lopsided victory by going over for four T.D.'s him- self and setting up many more! YO-HI 33 -NARIMASU 7 Yo-Hi scored two T.D.'s in the first and third quarters to down Narimasu 33-7 and get in the drivers seat as far as the league was concerned. Tom Hemingway and Jon Lynn crashed through the line and swept Narimasu's ends crazy to rack up five touchdowns between them. Yo-Hi's defense, lead by Roy Busby, kept Narimasu under control all the game until the Narimasu Q.B. intercepted a pass and went all the way. YO-HI 26-NARIMASU 0 Yo-Hi ended their 1955 football season by White-Washing Narimasu and winning the All Japan Championship for the second straight year. Leading at halftime 19-0, Yo-Hi just coasted for the rest of the game and substituted freely. Jon Lynn, Dan and Chip Lavery, and Harold Greene knotched up T.D.'s for Yo-Hi. 1 1 COACH BUXKEMPER COACH SWANSON Famous for his I didn't say Coach Swanson's defensive We'd win, I said I E we can line made the opponents back- win, Coach made sure the field adopt the slownesss of the team made him feel good. coach's easy going manner.
