Injuries, Bod Luck Plague Grid Squad The Trojan footballers couldn't find the winning com- bination of players during the T957 season as powerful opponents racked up a total of T98 points for the season. Enthusiastic spirit held up even though the team met many defeats. A red-hot squad opened the season against Salpoint,but were cooled down fast and had to work uphill for the rest of the season. Coach Ken Pear- son marked a lack of experience and the roughest sched- ule in our history as the causes for the lack of victories. TROJANS CRUSH SALPOINTE, 31-T3 A hard-driving Catalina team opened the '57 season with a 31-T3 victory over Salpointe's Lancers. Houston Gilbert piloted the trojans putting to work fullback Floyd Watson and Halfback Jim Mansfield. Although the Lan- cers countered with a sparkling passing attack, it was not enough to overcome the spirited Catalina ground game. Watson and Gilbert both hit the touchdown stripe twice and Mansfield scored from 7 yards putting the cap on a 66 yard scamper by Bill Best. The Troians heaped up 245 Trojan center John Preston heads for a loose pigskin along with iftli Rudy Pacheco, 1283 Don Hawk and 1203 Sammy Lydic during the South Mountain game.

Quentin Bryson was named lineman of the week for this game. BADGERS DOWN CATAUNA, 20-O The Tucson Badgers emerged the victors in the first round of a new crosstown football rivalry. The Troians tried the air and ground looking for a Badger weak spot but a rugged defense held Catalina scoreless. All State Art Acosta pounded out two TDs and kicked two PATs to lead THS to a victory. Troian Dave Berg flipped 42 yards' worth of passes to Mike Nagle for a third of Catalina's total offense. Jim Mansfield crossed the THS goal line late in the second half only to have the score called back on a penalty. SOUTH MOUNTAIN RUNS WILD lt was a rugged 60 minutes for the Troians as the Rebels of Phoenix captured 7 touchdowns to over-power Catalina 49 to O. After four minutes, an ankle injury put Junior fullback Floyd Watson out of the nights action. Alan Curiel connected with 5 passes for ol of the Tro- ians' 96 total offensive yards, and Houston Gilbert led Varsity Football managers George Orlando, Dick Waggoner, and Levi Woods work over 1781 Jim Sollev. Bill Best charges through in a practice session.
