for Accomplishments Five seniors and one junior were recognized by the Mississinewa Valley Conference coaches for their display of exceptional talent during confer- ence competition. The total of six team members to receive recognition equaled Delta's previous high in that category. Harold Fruit and Tom Butler were Delta's first team selections. Harold went both ways, offense and defense, as a tackle. As a halfback, Tom led the county in scoring with 683 yards and ten touchdowns. He placed third in receiv- ing with nine catches and three TD's. Placing on the second team were offensive guard Wayne Huddleston and middle linebacker Dave Eiler. Dave blocked six punts during the season which was conducive to his selection. Receiving honorable mention were haltback Charlie Bertram and quarterback Steve Chisman. Bertram filled in for Bob Lucas midway through the season and compiled the best yardage per carry average, 5.9. He also led the team in pass receiving with ten catches for 145 yards and two TD's. Bertram scored four times via the ground route. Chisman led the county in touchdown passes with ten while playing part-time in the backfield.
