DICK WHEAT P. H. RAMSEY R. L. TROUT
Quarter-Freshman
Weight 130-Age 18
"Dick" is also from
Sherman High. His
work at quarter was
like a veteran'sof many
years' experience. At
all times he was cool
and calculative, always
mixing the plays in
such a manner that the
opponents were kept
guessing. He was a
safety that did not belie
the name. He
starred in the game
with Trinity by intercepting
a forward pass
and running a long distance
for a touchdown.L. Half-B'k-Freshman
Weight 153-Age 20
"Pat" bails from
Sherman High. He is
developing the typical
Kangaroo hop, the
jump which enables a
Kangaroo to elude all
hispursuers. Heisfast
and tricky when carrying
the ball and often
he skirted the enemies'
ends for long gains.
He receives forward
passes cleverly and
tackles hard. We look
forward to his being
one of the fastest backs
on the Kangaroo gridiron.L. Guard-Prep'tory
Weight 187-Age 18
Trout made a fine
record this year and
under the guardianship
of experience a better
record will be his if he
returns next year.
"Big Six" proved a
stumbling block to
many players who attempted
to come his
way. Often he broke
through the line and
downed a man before a
gain had been made.
On the defensive he
was strong; on the offensive
he was aggressive.
He received a favorable
mention in the
