When the boys started working in the early part of the fall,Coach Mumby was faced with the difficult task of filling twelve vacanciesleft by the graduation of twelve lettermen.On September 14, Bloomington High School opened its strenuousschedule by meeting the Seymour eleven at Seymour. The Owls avenged theirdefeat of last year at the hands of the Panthers by holding the B. H. S.eleven scoreless while Seymour scored a touchdown and the point aftertouchdown for the final score of 7-0.The next Saturday, Sept. 22, the Panthers opened their home seasonby playing the Cardinals of Bloomfield. In this game the Bloomingtonoffense began to function. They put the pigskin over the goal line twice,but failed to make either point after touchdown. During this time theCardinals managed to make two points by a safety. At the final gun thescore stood 12-2.After the victory over Bloomfield the Purple and White journeyed upto Indianapolis to meet Washington High, and as at this time the Washington Continentals were rated the best in Indianapolis, the Panthers wereprepared to play one of their best games. The Mumbymen were leading atthe start of the third quarter, but their defense weakened to let the Continentals tie up the score 13-13.
