cyootbalf Coaches Tom Gillaspie and Dick Short with the College View eleven turned in the best record of any Hilltop team in the past four years. The Viewmen won six games, tied two, and lost one with only eight seniors on the squad. This placed them as runner up in the Eastern Nebraska Seven conference and sharing the Gage-Lancaster-Saline County loop crown with Wilber. The Viewmen started their season with a l8-O win over Friend. Lyman Hull scored two of the CV's touchdown. Clyde Cook scored the other. CV then defeated Plattsmouth l2-O dur- ing the season's first home game. This was the first win over the Blue Devils since l9-47. The Viewmen capitalized on two Plattsmouth miscues to score their touchdowns. The Viewmen continued their spree with another thrilling win over Blair. Clyde Cook's perfect pitch to Hull for a 32-yard touchdown in the last ten seconds of play, was the de- termining score in the game. College View's win streak was ended by a l3-O loss to Wahoo. Some wild play was featured in the third quarter and from then on, Wahoo controlled the game. With a vengeance, walloping the Wymore eleven, College View came back to the win- ning column with a 47-6 score. Cook, Hull, Hornby and Carlson provided the scores, for the Viewmen's triumph. Guard Van Van Cleave after picking up the loose ball on the Valley 38 raced for the touchdown that tied the Valley-Viewmen game 6-6. Both teams scored in the final period in the Eastern Nebraska Seven Con- ference football game. Lyman Hull, suffered a dislocated hip in the second quarter of the game. Wilber, as Viewmen's Homecoming foe, played a thrilling game in a l3-l3 deadlock. With the Viewmen trainling l3 to 6 in the final canto, Hornby pounced on a Wilber fumble on their 29-yard line. A moment later Lefty Carlson found Ron Vosika in the clear for a pass and he romped the rest of the way to pay dirt. A fake place kick ending up in a success- ful pass play for the point after touchdown gave CV a 7-6 win over Bellevue. End Ron Vosika received the vital pass from Clyde Cook. ln finale, College View again wins over Ashland in a l-4-l3 favor. The game was a battle of spread formation, as both the View- men and Ashland Bluejays used the unortho- dox formation. Rockin Rag Hornby and end Woody Oaks were CV's scorers.
