A Don McCormack column: Blasts from the past

Old football photos offer glimpse of yesteryear

DON McCORMACK
Star Beacon

A story in the Thursday, Oct. 27, 1910 Star Beacon said:

“Geneva High is disbanded because of parental objection, illness and absence from school make up reasons for the action.”

Jefferson played football from 1896 through 1926, though after losses at Conneaut, 7-0, and at Geneva, 25-0, it gave up football, switching instead to baseball in the fall.

Football was not played at Jefferson again until 1940, when the school played two six-man games and in 1941, when it played five six-man games.

Jefferson did not play again at all until 1946, when it brought 11-man football back and began playing at Memorial Field, where it remained until moving to Falcon Pride Stadium in 1981.

Picture this?

Anyone possessing old photos of any sport they believe might prove interesting can email them or contact yours truly at the address at the end of this column.

McCormack is the sports editor of the Star Beacon. Reach him at donmac@suite224.net.
