An undefeated season is the reason for the smiling faces of Coach Roger Har- low, Co-captain Ron Wilson, and Coach Lee Fulmer. Jim Blocher, the other co- captain, was sick and couIdn't be here to smile too. t Left to right: ROW i: Jack Miller, Keith Gayler, Robert Munoz, Art Montoya, Ron Wilson, Rudy Aguirre, Cruz Montes, Walt Criner, Armando Arce.

The first Arab Junior Varsity team to hold its opponents to a completely scoreless season's record is the title the i952 JV eleven may rightly and proudly claim. Under the expert guidance of Coaches Roger Harlow and Lee Fulmer, they opened their football sea- son against Palm Sp'rings, the game ending in a scoreless tie. Next they invaded Blythe where they swamped the Yellowiackets to the tune of 37-0. Back to avenge the earlier 0-O score, the Arabs crushed Palm Springs 12-O. Then they went on to another scoreless tie, this time with the Hemet Pups. ln the annual Junior Varsity Carnival held in the Coachella Valley Date Bowl, the East, composed of CVUHS and Palm Springs, defeated the West, composed of Beaumont and Hemet, 7-6. JV Carnival scoresi were: 'Q Coachella 0 Hemet 0 Palm Springs 0 Beaumont 6 Palm Springs 0 Hemet 0 Coachella 7 Beaumont O Thus the Arababes ended their highly successful season, not only undefeated but unscored on, com- piling a total of 56 points to their opponents' 0. At a potluck dinner celebrating the end of the season, the Junior Arabs honored four of their team- mates for outstanding achievement. Clayborne Tribble, first string end in both offensive and defensive play, tied with quarterback Walt Criner, also in the first string offensive, for Most Valuable Player of the Year. Fullbacks Jim Blocher and Ronnie Wilson, first stringers who played both offense and defense, were elected co-captains. PAGE 89
