football season ended with a
creditable 5-4 record. At each
game the fans witnessed some
exciting first-rate high schoo
football including a lot of fine
running by Clutch" Davis who
is second highest scorer in the
state with 121 points.
OF course, the other starting
backs deserve much credit too.
Lance Clark, the sophomore
halfback, put on beautiful dis
play of hard running until he was
sidelined because of an injury
in the Laurel contest. Howard
Shockley, originally quarterback,
switched to a halfback position
to replace Clark and did a fine
job in the two remaining games.
Gerald Savage, the big senior
fullback, made many valuable
gains as he crashed up the mid
die, time after time. Randy Hol-
land also deserves considerable
credit for his fine leadership as
he alternated at quarterback with
Shockley. Certainly we can't for
get the linemen, for it was they
who had to open up the holes
for these backs. The starting
linemen were:- Buddy Belts, at
Center; Dennis Mohr and Bill
Parsons, at the guards; John
Burris and Tom Fitzgerald, at
the tackles, and Tom Greenlee
and John Whalen, at the ends.
All Of these boys did q really
great job at their positions.
Finally, we must recognize
the defensive team because,
without them, no otfense could
attain and hold a lead to win a
ball game. Although several Of
fensive players played on de-
fense as well, some Of the boys
who, more or less, specialized
on defense were: Mike Sombar,
lineman; Jim Hammond, line
backer; Wayne Bunting, who was
Injured and sideIined in the
Middletown game, linebacker;
Dave Kenton, defensive half
back, and Willis Baynard, who
moved up from the j. VS. to
play in the last two games, line
man.
Although nine Of these start
ng players are leaving this
year, the prospects for next year
ire still quite good with several
experienced juniors returning
long with some very capable
unior Varsity players moving
lp too. So, with this season over,
We can look forward to next
season with expectation Of the
excitement that will be in store
or US then. So this is your
'uc's reporter hoping to see
GU next autumn cheering your
'ucs to another winning season.
Editors Note: The "breeZy"
rticles on football each week
ave been written by Tom
jarvis, one of the Buc's man
gers. We appreciate this re-
ortorial stint by Tom, and hope
e is available next season.
