Cannon, ’21 In the fall of 1919 the great Ameri can game of football was introduced again at Elon College, and those of tlie alumni and friends who have watch ed the development of alma mater’s gridiron team during these four sea sons past have had their fondest hopes realized in the highly successful record of the team thig year. Playing some of the strongest teams of the two Caro- linas and Virginia this season, the Ma roon and Gold was victorious in five games, tied one, and lost four. C. C. Johnson coached the team in its initial year, and L. M. Cannon was captain. Only three games were playec^ that year, only two of these being col lege games—Guilford and Lynchburg Colleges—both of which were lost. Yet the season was by no means a failure, for it instilled the football spirit into the athleties and students of our insti tution, and the next year Coach F. B. Corboy, a Pittsburgh University man who had won for himself a record in coaching the A. E. F. in France, took over the infant team and by three years of hard and insistent training has built up an organization that was this year able to compete successfully with col leges much larger than ours, and who >>ave had football in their list of col lege ‘'ports for many years. The revival of football at Elon coin cided with the opening of the new ath letic field to the south of the railroad, which is known as Comer field. Some of those comprising the initial gridiron machine to represent the Maroon and Gold were Richard Odom, L. J. Perry and G. A. Brown (who are still with the_team), -'Squint'’ Fogleman, L. E. I Sides, ‘'Johnny’’ Johnson, H. E. White and W. E. Marlette. Seven games constituted the 1920 sea son schedule, five of which were col lege games. And of these five college games one resulted in a victory for olma mater, and the other four in de feats. L. J. Perry was the captain of this team. Under the second year of Coach Cor boy’s training, 1921, alma mater’s team broke into the limelight of state foot ball. Eight collegiate games were sche duled for the season, four resulting in ^^The Men^s Shop BUELINGTON, N. C. N. L. WOLFF Book Bindery Magazines, Law Books and Bibles nicely rebouud.

The high spots of this sea son were holding Trinity to a scoreless tie and the defeating of Guilford. E. S. .Johnson captained the 1921 team. However, Eton's career in successful football dates back only to the begin ning of the season just passed. Under the generalship of L. J. Perry, acting captain, and his three past years of experience, coupled with the general experience of tlie team as a wliole, our boys were spurred on to their greatest efforts, and a very satisfying record resulted. Of the ten collegiate games played we won from Guilford, Lenoir, Hampden-Sidney, Erskine and Emory and H«nry, tied Lynchburg, and lost to D.ividson, Wake Forest, Eoanoke, and Randolph-jVIacon. The loss of only four games out of ten for a team as young as ours, and for a college the size of ours, w^e think is a record un equalled in this section. Looking back over the record of the past four years, the rapid development of the team cannot help being noticed, hnd without a doubt the major credit is due Coach Corboy. His consistent training has brought from the raw ma terial and the infant team he picked up three years ago a smoothly working gridiron team that is a real credit to the college and the pride of the alumni. As a member of team Perry is due the lion’s share of credit for the success Of this season’s record. Others who Contributed greatly this year are Hal Clark, J. M. Fix., Jr., Mark McAdams, two years in which to pay their sub scriptions.” The goal set was $900, which with the $100 already in hand will total $1,000. ' Your secretary-treasurer has solic ited each member of the association, and as a result we have in pledges and cash practicaly one-half of the amount needed to complete the fund. This is indeed a worthy cause. What better should we want to do with our money than use it to help educate a worthy young man or woman’ I am sure the balance will be easily raised by our next meeting in May, 1923. Your secretary treasurer desires to thank those loyal alumni who have been so generous with their encour aging words as well aa generous sub scriptions.
