They met Sparks for a chance at the state championship. This game was a real hcartbreaker for the Green Wave. Twice the Fallon lads made long runs for touchdowns, only to be called back by the referee. Although there was some dispute be- tween the otiicials, l allon went down 20-123 in favor ol' the Sparks team. After receiving such a set-back as this, the boys took their revenge by beating Stewart 6-0. The Thanksgiving day game with Reno was dropped ti-0 as the football spirit died in Churchill County at the end of a successful season. This year Fallon turned out 23 let- ter men, 15 ot' whom will be back next year. ln addition to turning out a good team. Coaches Norwood and Van Heu- velen turned o11t a good camera man, Harry Shierson. Shierson took moving pictures of all the games so that each game could be studied and errors ot' the team righted. Churchill's pride and joy fur the season ot' '41 is Albert Cyel' Hicks, who captured the berth of All-State tackle, and who was presented a gold football and chain for his accomplish- ment. Hicks is a ,iunior student. ind Maffi make 28

A.. .irv , ...EAM 1 4aal6a!Z'4 Q Q' Amilio Bell, four-year letterman, was given a rating as quarterback on the All-State second string. Piercy Holli- day was made second string guard. Bev Waller received honorable mention. Managers for the '41 season were very scarce, although one little red- headed Billy Marsh suffered the tor- tures of the football team through the season. Lettermen include: Leonard Allen, sophomore, Charles Alworth, iuniorg Robert Alworth, senior: Amilio Bell, senior: Ralph Bell, freshman: Beryl Boden, senior: John Brite, fresh- man: Lloyd Casey, junior: Virgil Get- to, junior: Alvin Groth, senior: Donald Hahn, senior: Welburn Hall, senior: Albert Hicks, junior: Piercy Holliday, senior: Kenneth Homer, senior: Shel- don Homer, sophomore: Dale Johnson, senior: Tom Jolly, sophomore: Junior Kito, sophomore: Stephen Mafli, sen- ior: Bev Waller, junior: Louis Mori, junior: Dave McDonald, junior. A few snags appear on next sea- son's horizon. Arnold Van Heuvelen, for the past three years assistant coach, may be called to the army in June. If the rubber shortage is as seri- ous as school authorities think, inter- school ball may be discontinued for the duration. But other than this, we hope to see Coach Norwood and his lads pull through with a state cham- pionship next year. Wggllgr goes around end in the Reno .f s HITIP.
