With the advent of the brown,crackl1ng leaves and the Hhonkn of southbound geese, another sound, the npunkn of the pigskin, ushered in another season of the sport that is tops in autumn--FOOTBALL, a season that proved to be the greatest of all time for the mighty Gor1llas.Backed by thirteen letterman and fifteen newcomers, Coach Messner, with high hopes, trained his eyes on new accomplishments . After a week of llmbering up, another in learning the art of blocking and tackling, and a third spent in scrimmages the red-shirted huskies of G. H. S.marched onto the flood- lighted field of Burke. N BURKE 6--GREGORY 58 Burke was the question mark that Lhovered over the Gorilla team, for an impressive victory over them would be the first step toward a successful season. When the game was over that question mark was gone. With versality and precision the boys marched through a f1ght'Jg Burke team whose efforts to stop the Messnerfan horle were futile. Fifty-two

LAKE ANDES 0--GREGGHX 67 After a two weeks rest the Gorillas took their only trip east of the river during the season to play a game that was called football, but was nearer nPass and Touchu, with Lake Andes passing the ball and Gregory touching g it down in pay dirt. This game saw Lake Andes fight like on- ly a great bunch of boys can.They couldn't match Gregory's football, but their gameness will never be questioned. The game gave the reserves plenty of opportunity to show their abilities and they came through in great style. . WINNER 6--GREGORY 20 Every school has its traditional football foe. For Gregory that opponent is W1nner.Decis1ve defeats of Colome and Valentine, who won from Winner, made Gregory a heavy favorite.But when the teams met at Winner for the annual Armistice Day battle, the Warriors of Winner High were 'an inspired group, and from the opening kickoff to final gun they put a game that was anything but one-sided. Gregory scored the first time they got the ball, but w1nd,stirring dust that was equally obstructive, hampered the play of both teams, and at half time the score was 7-O.As the sec- ond half started Winner was the team to score. Their at - tempt for extra point was missed and the score only served to infurlate the red-shirted Gorillas who came back with grim determination that flguredzgreatly in the two touch- downs scored before the final gun. Gregory's impressive record made them one of the out- standing teams in the state, and when the Aberdeen Eagles claimed the State Championship, Gregory challenged them to a game to decide the unofficial champion. This challenge was not acdepted and Gregory claimed the muthlcal title. The Gregory team was further honored by having two of its members, James Belak, half-back and Frank Vyzralek guard, selected by the coachs of South Dakota as members of the All-State team. Selected for honorable mention by the same vote were LaVern Korton, end, and Bryce Haskett, guard. Gregory's losses by graduation were heavy, including ten regulars and five reserves. The six lettermen return- ing next year are: Robert Hickman, Escort Johnson, Jack Bain, Dwight Kendall, Duane Robinson, Lyle G-raesser and Vernon Hubcl. Lettermen who graduated were: Capta1n,Jack Primm, Tom Graesser, James McGill, miles Pagler, Stanley Pochop, Bryce Haskett, Bob Brunz, Frank Hyzralek, Robert Stukel, Hadley Ford, Phil Haskett, Lavern Korton, Marvin Allum, James elak, and Lloyd Shattuck.
