THE LOCALS WIN A GAME FOR COACH LIITT

October 29th - Coach Liitt put Murphy back at quarterback and ran the Osborne shift again on offense. The Racine bunch put up a good defense but were unable to penetrate the Rock Island line. John Harty and Jerry Mansfield were able to score for the Islanders.
