Fiank F EoE Tor Sunday SEED E 25¢ 30c L'Mm sat» Aora. 5¢ BER 15, 1936 9¢ .99 50c 33¢ a8 Meet Traditional Foe In _ S Home Coming Game Saturday Highland Park high school will celebrate homecoming next Saturâ€" day afternoon when they mix with their ancient rivals from New Trier at â€"the l?ecfield-Shiddl athletic field. f f The Winnetka aggregation, 19385 Suburban league champions, will bring to Highland Park a much weaker team than the one the "Litâ€" ale Giants" faced last year, This year‘s squad, handicapped by, injurâ€" ies and weakened by graduation, is far from being anything sensationâ€" al as was last year‘s undefeated team. . New Trier, in addition â€"to the two defeats administered by Proviso and Oak® Park, was thorâ€" oughly whipped by a strong Canâ€" ton, Ohio, team 53â€"0. This was the first time in nine years that the Trevians have lost a game by more than two touchdowns. - New Trier can depend on a fairly strong backfield, but its line is def: initely not up to par. The work of the linemen has been sluggish all season. Highland Park will have to watch Capt. Stebbins and McFadzen closely for each are exâ€" cellent running backs. Both are good passers and will undoubtedly put Highland Park‘s defense to a severe test. Versino, New: Trier left half, is one of the best kickers in the league and if in form should give Harris quite a match on punts. ~ Highland Park‘s squad on the other hand has shown a great deal of improvement since the Oak Park game when they received a severe trimming from the Huskies, Last week at Morton the "Little Giants" displayed a much stronger attack than they had in any game so far this , season.. Their line charged hard! and ‘broke up many Morton plays before they had a chance to get underway. â€"Highland Park‘s backfield is by far the fastest in the league, although it is the lightâ€" est, and will cause New Trier plenâ€" ty of worry before the afternoon is over. The backfield combination of Harris, Baldauf, Wilder and Durment will bare watching close ly, as will their new passing attack that was developed last Saturday. Saturday‘s game will be the nineâ€" teenth time the two schools have met since their gridiron rivalry beâ€" gan in 1913. Although the â€"odds are with the Trevians, who have won the majority of the game, we believe Coach Floyd will have quite a surprise for the Winnetka team. It is our opinion that the Highland Park boys are at least seven points better than their opposition. f ‘Lincoln School P.â€"T.
