Gruelmg practices and hard fought games show the spirit and enthusiasm of the Terriers 'llhe chill and crispncss of fall heralded the football season at Community. Ileavy padding, white uniforms, and helmets made all the players look alike, but soon those white suits turned dark, evidence of 1nany battles, and the numerals be- came very well known because of the many outstanding plays. Winter was highlighted by the toss up at the center circle and the rcferce's whistle as basketball season got underway. The gym echoed with cheers and shouts as a player dribbled down to make a basket, or a long shot swished through thc basket. Spring brought with it a variety of sports. The tennis courts blossomed into activity as both boys and girls competed for honors. Cn the baseball diamond the crack of a bat as a ball sailed into right field for a home run was the signal for wild cheering as a loyal student body backed their team. Track, too, provided its thrills as we watched the boys clear the bar in the pale vault or skim gracefully over the hurdles. Sports at CCHS played an important part in the lives of the participants and spectators throughout the year, and the results, many more times than not, proved rewarding.
