Rockville may well take pride in
another of her citizens and this
time one of the younger ones =
Gordon Coleman, star end of Rich
ard Montgomery Highs football
team. In the Washington Posts
1851 All-Star Schoolboys Team, he
was chosen as an end in the first
team of the All-Metropolitan, and
as captain Of the first team in. the
All-Suburban in the same position.
This is fine tribute to one of
Rockville's leading schoolboy ath-
letes, who completes his scholastic
work at Richard Montgomery this
year. Two other local boys who
were similarly honored are Barbee
Hebbett of Richard Montgomery,

All-Suburban first team and Frank
Schwartz of Gaithersburg who was
selected as an end on the All-Sub-

are particularly noteworthy, since
football is so comparatively new to
the field of sports in our school
system.
