ACT I. , SCENE 3 JAe fhxei a£t Sea xtfi Under the leadership of their new mentors, Head Coach Bob Covington and Assistant Coach Gene Snipes, the senior high football boys begin practicing diligently beneath a broiling August sun in pre- paration for a ten-game schedule. After dropping the first two games to Electra and Valley View, The Hawks won a glorious victory over the Burk Bulldogs on September 24. In regular conference play, the Hawks celebrate Homecoming on October 29 by winning over Henrietta 32-20. Although no other win is chalked up during the season, our boys keep up their fighting spirit and acquit themselves well in each game.
