Show HENSLEY CORTEZ Tackle HENSLEY, COMMONLY known as "De Gama," was fully as hardy and tenacious as the illustrious explorer he was named after. He was the biggest man on the team, and it is a well-known fact that when he reached for an op- posing player nothing short of a miracle or an earthquake could save the poor fellow. LA VERN WILKINSON Tackle "BAINIE" WAS A HARD player and no easy man to stop. When he fell on a man, that man was due for a short rest. In every game "Bainie" held the line with the tenacity of a bulldog. THOMAS HICKMAN Captain End WHEN IT CAME to reckless, daring plays, Tom was right there. His pep and energy kept the team on edge and aided materially in winning the games. In the middle of the season Tom was called to New Zealand on a mission. If he preaches like he played he'll make the most successful missionary on the island. GERALD BLACKBURN Guard "JERRY" PLAYED for Weber, the twins, and himself with a fierceness that was strong enough to satisfy all three. He was usually the bottom man when the scrimmage pile was untangled, but he was satisfied if that made any gain for Weber. STEWART HALLIDAY Halfback "MONK" WAS always a good man in the backfield. He was as shifty as an angry cat and an expert at pulling off long runs. Altho he had a lot of trouble with his ankle, he never quit a game, but kept on playing to the end. "Monk" made quite a name for him- self in athletic circles. He will be remembered as one of Weber's foremost athletes. DELTON BRAMWELL Halfback ALTHO "DELT" was small and light, he was all there when it came to fight and speed. He was a difficult fellow to stop when he started down the field. A will-o'-the-wisp had nothing on him. LEE HALES Center LONG, LEAN and hungry, center-de- luxe, Rock of Gibraltar-all apply to our friend of the scarlet crest. His specialty on the gridiron was mussing up everything in general and himself in particular. ALTON HALVERSON Halfback HE WAS THE HARDEST-HEADED, hardest-plunging, bow-leggedest specimen of humanity that ever won the reputation of being the hardest moleskin warrior to stop, in Junior College circles. "Bo" McMillan the thirteenth. |
