f v De enrive and jjfenfive Units Combined To Give Stevenson football fans were treated to the best season in its short history as the team rambled to a second place league finish and an overall record of 3-5. Despite the seem- ingly poor record, the Spartans managed to beat the leaders and lose to those teams that seemed to offer the least opposi- tion. Both the defensive and offensive units had streaks of eifectiveness that never failed to provide a portion of the excitement at Stevenson during the fall season. The coaching of the team, done by Mr. Reardon and Mr. Gabel, had the Spartans in excellent condition through- out the fall season. The spirit and vigor of the players, the careful attention of the coaches, and their combined determi- nation gave Stevenson its strong finish. W, K ,, Strong blocking aided runners like Gene Walker. Head coach Mr. Reardon and line coach Mr. Galrel watched carefully for errors on opponents part, that could be turned to advantage for the Spartans in achieving a well executed play such as the run of Al Danver. l so Marc Hulet led the way for runners like quarterback Jerry Detter. Such teamwork formed a strong attack.

They talk of a fat and lazy America lounging before the white light of a television tube, growing soft - of the affluent society producing nothing but genera- tion after generation of whining, half-finished men and women. High school athletic programs aim at rounding out the whole man. Here is where it begins - the body and mind cooperat- ing with instinctive harmony. It can be the beginning of a life-long career in sports, or merely the introduction to a healthy life made happy with a body free of the cancerous chains created by the easy life. Either way, the creativity and natural rhythm of a sound mind in a sound body can bring only pleasure.
