Two Trojan Defenders bring a Spartan ball carrier down for no gain . Castle Park waits for the initial kick-off against Hilltop. HILLTOP BEATS TROJANS. . The Trojan Homecoming was played against Hilltop, but nobody watched as the Tro- janettes, Teams, and other participants paraded onto the field. Not a single person was able to watch the first threewarters. All of those who attended will remember the anticipation of waiting for the announcer to explain what occured, for most of the game was played in a thick fog bank .... Tom Cruz threads his way through the Lancers line. The Trojan Gridders experienced a-not-so good year as they ended the season with one win and seven losses . Lacking returning lettermen, the team fought well to retain the valor of previous years. Many players showed themselves as an excellent potential for future years, but they needed the experience which this season gave them . This years team gave the great contribution of preparing Castle Park for future years . . . .BOTH TEAMS IN THE FOG . . . but this did not stop the great Trojan spirit. As the game started people lined the fence to see the fantastic floats. During the half-time they strained their eyes to see the Homecoming Queen candi- dates. Finally, during the Fourth Quarter the fog quickly cleared, and then the Trojans saw the Football team fight hard to stop the Lancers losing by a score of 34 to7.
