VARSITY FOOTBALL Seadxm Once again Jerry Clement and Kenny Staub put a highly-spirited, winning aggregation on the gridiron to represent Herbert Hoover. The pigskinmen broke even in the practice season as well as in loop encounters. In the warm-up tilts they edged Santa Barbara and lost to the powerful Alhambra eleven, while in league play they scalped Covina. Monte- bello. and Glendale, dropping the nod to Monrovia. South Pasadena, and Burbank. In keep- ing with the best traditions of the school, this year's crew dropped the favored Glendale machine 14-6 in the Rose Bowl. This victory alone made the season a complete success. Hoover rooters will remember for years (as Glendale rooters remember with tears) when Left End Bill Dupree intercepted a Dyno forward pass in the deep flat and hotfooted it half the length of the field to the end zone. Later in the game Sub-Halfback Dave Barry picked off another errant Glendale toss and rambled 17 yards for six more precious points. Twice Dean Fisher planted the oval high in the Rose Bowl stands to complete the scoring for the evening. This year's eleven ran out of the single wing, with veteran Warren Hart and hustling Frank Walker alter- nating in the tail-back slot. Jack Davis. Stan Boone, and Dom Gaudino were the blocking backs, while the little packet of TNT. Bob Wolff, provided a break-away threat. In the forward wall Neil Lake starred at center. Bruce Bell and Bob Brink at guard. Herschel Leffler and Don Herman at tackle. Bill Dupree and Steve Podesta were a scrappy pair of defensive ends, while the big boys. Jerry Roberts and Fred Pratley. came in to corral Hart's pitches when Hoover had the ball. BEE FOOTBALL Coach Sparky Wilson's Cyclone eleven fared a little better than their big brothers. They. too. split their practice games, but stomped Montebello. Glendale. Covina, and South Pasadena, while bowing only to Burbank and Monrovia in circuit play. Such speedburners as Don Kaljian. Denny Pender. Owen Stenzel. and Diran Donigan made the ground attack go. while Jim Carlile and Captain Rex Brinn took care of the air arm of the offensive. VARSITY BASKETBALL “Near. but. oh. so far'' just about sums up the 1947-48 Varsity basketball season. Howard Butterfield's boys lost the crown to South Pasadena by the margin of a single field goal. 37-35. in a wild and woolly finish which nearly blew the roof off the Tiger's “crackerbox gym. The Tornadoes beat every team in the league, including South Pas. at least once, but three heartbreaking losses dropped them to second place. In a post- season tournament. Hoover gave the vaunted Tartars from Compton the battle of their lives, before bowing to the eventual tourney champs. 45-41. This year's team was rich in basketball experience, as each of the starting five. Warren Hart. Bob Barley. Keith Reigel- man. Chuck Duncan, and Captain Dean Fisher, was completing his third season in the Purple silks. 9 1 kfLGA.t'l cue ex 122 . . cue t ialn ho-dUeb
