Scoring first in the first quarter on a 26 yard run, the Badgers took an early lead which they kept throughout the game. Cata- lina bounced right back in the second quarter with a 4 yard Tom Murphy to Don Gabriel pass. This proved to be the only tally for the Trojans in a roughly played game, which saw both sides penalized a total of 160 yards. Lady luck smiled at Tucson in the fourth quarter when a blocked CHS kick put the Badgers at the Catalina 28. They scored in two plays on a 26 yard pass. Trojans Win First Against Rincon Going up against the Rincon Rangers in full strength did the trick as the Trojans bounced back from a two game losing streak and avenged their previous loss to Rincon, to win 14-12. Once again it was the all important P.A.Tfs that decided the winner as both of Catalina's were good after scores made by halfback Don Pearson and a Murphy to Gabriel pass. This win was Catalina's first win in four games against Rincon. Bocats Shock Catalina To 25-0 Loss F avored by all the newspapers to win against Central it seemed as if the blue and white gridmen would add another victory to their record, but this particular night they were the hottest they had been all season. Scoring the first two times they got the ball, they kept up the torrid pace all through the game to whitewash Catalina 25-0. Backed by the tremendous running of john Lane, who averaged eight yards per carry, and flashy quarter-back Ray Hienter, the Bob- cats were too much for the Trojan eleven, which led to Catalinais worst defeat of the season.

C S Sinks Vlkmg Ship Catalina's first out-of-town game proved to be a success, as twelve bus-loads of blue and white fans saw the Trojans crumple Sunnyslope 8-0. Rock-ribbed defensive play, combined with the passing of Tom Murphy and the hard running of Don Gabriel, was the key to the Viking loss. First score of the game came when Sunnyslope's back joe Formica was trapped in the end zone for a safety, giving the Trojans a 2-O lead. The final score came when half-back Don Gabriel of Catalina received a 15 yard pass from quarterback Torn Murphy and bulled his way to the one yard line. On the next play Tom Murphy carried the ball and plunged over. Cata- lina was never in trouble after that and went on to victory. W' Trojans Edged In Heart-Breaker At Rincon Called the most exciting game of the year as Rin- con squeaked by Catalina 14-12 before a record 7,500 fans at Rincon. After a bruising, scoreless, first-half, Trojan defensive back Bob Sher intercepted a pass and ran 35 yards to put C.H.S. ahead 6-0. Twelve plays later the Rangers scored and took the lead when the ' 42 rr 451. TEV' P.A.T. was successful. Later Mike Armstrong jitter- bugged 25 yards for the next Rincon tally. Torn Mur- phy then passed to Doug Wfard who raced 30 yards for Catalina's Final T.D. Once again the important P.A.T. g failed and a few minutes later the final gun sounded.

Tucson High Badger, Clyde WVilliams, looks as though he will soon be sandwiched between Cata- lina's two Dons fGabriel and Pearsonl at an early season game played at Catalina. Homecoming Spoiled Amphi's victory starved Panthers spoiled Cata- lina's homecoming celebration by upsetting the heavily favored Trojans 27-13. Breaking a 13-13 tie after half-time, the Panthers scored twice in the. fourth quarter for their second win in eight games, as quarterback Glen Ezell and Halfback George Iackson provided the scoring punch for the Panthers. Catalina threatened twice more in the game but the Panthers defense stiffened and took over on the one yard line. Bob Griffen and Mike Cart- wright both scored for CHS, Bob Griffen on a pass from quarterback Tom Murphy and a run by Mike Cartwright. This loss left CHS with a 4-4 record.
