Six-Game Card Is Announced for Frederick JV Squad
Frederick high school junior varsity will play a six game schedule this fall with two games against Martinsburg JV and single games against Annapolis High JV and Hagerstown JV.

The squad, largely composed of sophomores, will run a split-T formation under Coach Brooks, featuring a backfield led by Bobby Weddle at quarterback and Sonny Krantz, Thomas Stockman at half, Eugene Krantz at fullback, with several freshmen joining after school opens. Wilbur Main stands out as a tough, diminutive defender among growing prospects.
