Racine Horlick, Central Defeat Regent Gridders
Dave Johnson catches a pass from Dave Baskerville.
The Regents dropped their fourth and fifth games of
the season to Racine Horlick and Central.
Racine Horlick's grid machine put together two touchdown
drives to defeat West 12 7, at Racine, on October 16. The victory gave Racine Horlick a record of three
victories and only one defeat in conference play. The Rebels were sparked by hard running Dave Lampman,
who scored both Horlick touchdowns. John Christianson broke through the line to block one of Horlick's
extra point attempts.
West scored its only touchdown on a Dave Baskerville
to Dave Johnson pass. Karl Holzworth booted the. extra point.
A sharp defense helped Central to defeat West. 18 0 at
Breese Stevens field Friday night. The win was their second straight in the conference rivalry. West now
has one win against five defeats season.
|
Central, put the game on ice in the fourth quarter by scoring two quick touchdowns. Both touchdowns were
set up on intercepted passes within the 30 yard line. Until this time West had shown fair offense and
defense.
Karl Holzworth and Dave Johnson did good jobs in the
backfield while Gordon Corcoran played a hard game on offense and defense. Dave Johnson had a good
night in punting, one of which went 66 yards and set West out of the hole.
The West offense just couldn't get rolling, its closest
threat of penetration was to Central's 32. Joe Stassi intercepted a pass on the 44, Holzworth then
smashed 12 yards on the next play to the 32, where after two unsuccessful pass plays West was forced to punt
into the end zone

Regents End Season With Janesville, East
Madison West’s football team, winner of only one out of
six games this season, finishes the season up with two home games. The Regents are host to the
Janesville Bluebirds Friday, October 30, and meet their cross-town rival, Madison East, in the final
game, Wednesday, November 4.
Janesville will come to town with a 2-3-1 season record
but has lost two of those games by a total margin of four points. Frank Rabiola is the chief threat
in the Bluebirds’ attack.
|
The Madison East Purgolders have won only one game this
season, a 14-0 victory over Janesville and are tied with West for the Big – 8 cellar. Injuries and
colds have hampered the East squad all season. Dick Barton, all city fullback last year, is the offensive
star for the Purgolders while guard Ron Skram is their defensive standout.
|

Before the Central game, Coach Fred Jacoby was warning
Manager Marshall Shapiro about leaving the extra point tee on the field. Marsh remarked that he hoped
he get to carry it out about 40 times. Jacoby told him not to worry that he would carry it himself if
they made that many touchdowns.
|
On the bus trip to Racine a week ago, a round gumball rolled past Coach Jacoby, who asked, "Who’s rolling
marbles?" Bob Colbert replied from the back, "I am."
Jacoby answered, "Don’t shake your head anymore, Bob."
Paul Sergenian agreed on a bet to conduct traffic on the
main street in Racine. He is still very proud of his act of chivalry in stopping a big red car to
let an old lady cross the street.
