The Jamboree was excitement, frenzy, elation, and dis­ appointment all rolled together into one big game. Pre-game sentiment had been in favor of a difficult, but sure, victory over Alumni members, but faith wavered as the team stormed back to- the campus, and the roster was re­ vealed : Frank Hagin, Art Kastner, Bill Draper, Dick Alder­ son, Gordon Stangeland, Jerry Yoesel, and Bill Burch. The starting line-up for the Redskins was Howard Oliver, Bob Bryan, Ernie Farmer, Al Kennedy, and Jim Gardner. The game began slowly, with little action on either side, but speedily gained momentum as the game progressed. The Redskins seemed to have a slight edge over the "grads" dur­ ing the first half of the game, and the half-time score in their favor read 3 1 -28. But after this the Alumni began a steady drive to decrease the score, and by the fourth quar­ ter had gained control. The Redskins tried a desperate last quarter surge to even the score, but were unable to conquer the Alumni. Defeated and chagrined, the Redskins could only promise, "next year!"
