Officers of the club, in addition to Mr. Leary, are Thomas Ogles by, John Baker, Nick Galantis and Bob Seymour.

"If the boys know they have an organized group behind them they will have more incentive to play ball. "Last year we won the state championship and got nearly no publicity except from THE NEWS TIMES and the local radio stations. While these news sources cover the county, very few big-time cotlegc scouts visit here. "The metropolitan papers expect some group such as the Touchdown Club to write stories and send them in. That is the only way the scouts will hear about some of our best and most deserving players," the coach declares.
