Best Season yet  .  .  .

Records fell this season as 4500 people overflowed the bleachers at the first home game in the Eagle's Nest; a sophomore returned a kick-off 85 yards for a touchdown, a senior played both end and fullback, two seniors earned five-year letters, and a light but fast team came through with seven wins in ten games. Excellent coaching and consistant practice helped to make this a winning season.
