HAVE OUTSTANDING YEAR The fall of T955 saw the Marianna High School Bulldogs roll up one of the best M.H.S. football records in their history. The Bulldogs pulverized the opposition savagely, as their record for the season read an impressive TO-l, including an Egg Bowl Championship victory over Milton. A second-place position in the competitive N.W.F.C. was gained by their efforts. The Bulldogs were recognized on a state-wide basis as they were ranked fifteenth in the Miami Herald's prep grid poll. Such recognition was a very significant ac- complishment considering the fact that the poll included all the high schools in the state from Miami's prep institutions on down.
