The clash between the cross-town rivals was played on the neutral Tucson High field on Monday, Nov. 16. .Pueblo halfback Fernando Santa Cruz received the opening kickofi and raced 95 yards through the entire Trojan defense to vault the Warriors into a lead that was never threatened. Later in the first quarter, the same Warrior prepster returned a Catalina fourth down punt to the Trojan 14 yard line. On the hrst play from scrim- mage, Santa Cruz lugged the pigskin over the goal line again to rack up Pueblo's second tally of the night. The Trojan's managed to halt the Warrior warpath rampage for the next two quarters. In the final period, Pueblo took the ball on its own ten and marched 90 yards to paydirt. Late in the same quarter Catalina halfback Bob Chalden returned a Pueblo punt 65 yards to the Warrior IO yard line. The Trojan rally was abruptly snufied out when Pueblo recovered a Catalina bobble and ran out the clock.

This year's freshman football squad was small, both in size and number. Fifty-eight boys reported for practice in September, but by the end of the season this group had been reduced to twenty-eight pigskinners. It is hoped that these remaining players will develop into a fine varsity team in the future. The season record of four wins and six losses does not indicate the type of football which characterized the team according to Coaches Mel Vogel and Ev Nicholson. The Colts successfully opened their season with a 12-7 victory over Casa Grande. Pueblo turned the tables in the next outing as Catalina fell 7-12. Flowing Wells then decisioned the Colts 6-26. Amphi followed suit by squeez- ing past the frosh with a 7-13 triumph. The Colts regained the initiative the next week by dropping Tucson 19-14. They made it two in a row by edging Rincon 12-7. The Salpointe frosh squad was the next victim as the Colts swamped the parochial school 39-6. In the second meet- ing of the year with Pueblo, the cross-town school made a clean sweep of the season, annihilating the Colts 6-39. Sunnyside proved' a little too strong for the Blue and White by eking out a 13-14 victory. The Colts ended their season with a 7-19 loss at the hands of Mesa. f 1959 Frosh Schedule 1 gahlm, ' Sept. 26 Catalina Casa Grande -a Oct. 1 Catalina Pueblo 1? 7 Oct. 8 Catalina Flowing Wells ,, ,,,, -5 , na Q Oct. 15 Catalina Amphi lx, ' r 1' gill Egg?
