The outstanding player of the night was Richard Duke, a con- verted guard, who snagged two passes for runs of five and fifteen yards which accounted for two of the Colts’ touchdowns. Stephen Spears, a converted half-back, also snared a pass from Slick’’ Glasgow fora run of twenty-five yards and a third Colt touchdown. With Glasgow adding one extra point to the total, the Colts came out on top of a 25-0 final score with the Owls in the season's opener. IRVING With the opening game with the Garland Owls won ana behind them, the Colts from AHS were host to the Irving AAA Tigers. The Tigers were the first to cross the Colt goal line in the 1952 season, as Bruce Outlaw picked up fifty-nine yards in the first quar- ter to make it a 6-0 ballgame at the end of the first period .The Colts were soon to catch fire and come back; as early in the second quarter they drove 46 yards in 6 plays with Glasgow going over for the touchdown from the Tigersixyard line. Glasgow connected the extra point and the Colts were ahead 7-6. A Tiger fumble recovered by John Dennehy on the Irving 49. paved the way with the Colts'final touchdown in the second quarter. John Dennehy went over to score from the 1 yard line, though Glasgow's extra point try was wide to the right. The half then ended with the Colts on the big end of a 13-6 score. The scoreless second half brought out the importance of the fine defensive, as well as offensive play of the rugged Colt forward wall. HILLSBORO The Colts traveled to Hillsboro on October 7 for their third game of the season against the Eagles of Hillsboro High. The Colts scored early i n the first period with a touchdown pass fromGlasgow to Martin and the Colts led 6-0 with Glasgow’s failure to convert the extra point. The Eagles then tied the ball- game up 6-6 mid-way in the first half. Late in that same half an- other Colt score was set up with a 30 yard pass from Glasgow to Gassaway to the one, with Glasgow going ove r two plays later. Glasgow's kick was good and the first half ended with the Colts leading 13-6. The Eagles scored again in the second half to make the score read 13-12, but Glasgow clinched the game by scoring from the two yard line. With the clock running out, the game ended with the Colts on top of a 19“12 decision. WEATHERFORD October 10th the Colts we re host to their second AAA foe of tl year. The Roos” from Weatherford handed the Colts their fir defeat of the season with a score of 13-7. Despite the hard charging Colt line, consisting of Spears,Hu: ford, Norman, Walker, Terry, Finch, and Duke, and the hard rui ning backs by the name of Glasgow, Martin, Me Master, and Denneh the Roos” came out on top of this hard fought game. After a scoreless first half, the Colts scored when Gary Mart broke through the center of the Weatherford line for 25 yards, wi Glasgow going over on the fourth down. Glasgow’s kick was goc and the Colts led 7-0. The Roos” came back in the last quarti to score twice and make one extra point to hand the Colts the sho end of a 13-7 decision. TERRELL The Colts traveled to Terrell October 17, only to be set back for the second time in so many weeks, to the tune of 34-6 by the mighty Tigers. The rampaging Terrell Tigers scored a total of five times with four conversions for extra points. The Tigers rolled chiefly behind the brilliant running of James Harris and Lavon Cox. The Colt offensive finally caught fire in the third quarter to drive 60 yards in fifteen plays, with John Dennehy running over from the two for the score. Although o u t c 1 a s s e d, the Colts made a good showing. Out- standing players of the night were Richard Narcho. fine defensive back, and big Larry Hufford, giant hard charging tackle for the Colts. DIAMOND HILL The Colts took a big step toward retaining their district crown by defeating the Diamond Hill Eagles 6-0 October 24 at Handley. The Colts seemed to have their hands full with the hard run- ning of Kenneth Bannister and Frank Praslicka as the first half ended scoreless. A major factor in favor of the Colts was their fine defensive play and especially on the part of Bobby Walker, who intercepted an Eagle pass on the Colt 20 yard line, therefore bringing to a halt an Eagle drive deep in Colt territory. The Colts finally scored in the third quarter, with Ken Me Master going 46 yards for the touchdown. The Eagles threatened in the closing moments but fine defensive play by Glasgow,Hufford, Finch, and Norman stalled the Eagle attack and the game ended 6-0 in fa- vor of the Colts. WHITE SETTLEMENT The encounter with the Brewe r Bruins was originally scheduled to be played at Brewer, but because of lack of facilities the game was played here at Arlington. The Colts had practically no trouble at all building up a 13-0 lead in the first quarter, and then Coach Mayfield Workman turned the game over to the reserves. Bud Heinlein set up the third Colt touchdown when he intercepted a pass on the Bruin 25 yard line. He then scored from the five several plays later. A fourth Colt touchdown was scored by Weldon Hall in the final period on a 38 yard scamper. The Bruins finally pushed over one score in the final period for their only tally. The game then ended 25-6 in f a v o r of the Colts with Brian Johnson heralded as the outstanding lineman of the night. HANDLEY The Colt's powerful line led by Foots Hufford. Hayden Terry, Dan Norman, and Jim Finch led the Colts running attack to a smashing 14-0 victory over the Handley Greyhounds November 7 at Memorial Stadium at Arlington. The first Colt score came when Glasgow gambled on a fourth down on the Handley 44 yard line. Slick scampered around left end to score standing up. u was then a game of punt and fine defensive play until Ken McMaster sneaked across from the Handley five for the final touchdown. The Greyhounds gave an impressive account for themselves, but the Colts were just too much for them, as shown by the impres- sive 14-0 final score. BIRDVILLE The Colts opened their final home game of the 1952 season a- gainst the Birdville Buffs. The Colts roared into the incounter with a total of four touch- downs in the first half; made by Spears, MacMaster, Glasgow,and Gassaway. Two of these touchdowns were made on passes from Glasgow, and the others by runs of three and four yards. Glasgow attempted all four extra points, converting three of them. The Colts again scored in the final period with a fine run by Ken MacMaster, with Glasgow kicking his fourth conversion of the evening. The Buffs scored their only touchdown in the third period. The end of this game brought to an end the hometown” careers of such well known figures in Colt football circles as Ray Slick Glasgow, Larry Foots Hu ffo rd. Gene Cootes, John Dennehy, Stephen Spears, Douglas Gassaway, Ken McMaster, Gary Martin, John Bu mu m. and Bud Heinlein. These stalwart members of the Class of '53 will be remembered down through the years by many of us. The score of this final home game was a fitting 34-6 in favor of the Colts. MINERAL WELLS The Mountineers of Mineral Wells brought to a close the Colts’ domination of the 11AA crown for the past three years. The Powerhouse of Mineral Wells rolled over the Colts time and time again to roll up a total of five touchdowns and two conver- sions for a total of thirty-two points. The best the Colts could do was thirteen points when Slick Glasgow counted for both Colt counters, one in the second and the other in the third quarter. He converted one extra point making the Colt total. Tony Munger was the thorn in the Colts’ side as he led his team-mates to the 32-13 win over the Colts, and the Districti 1AA crown. RAYMOND GLASGOW does it again. As quarter- back for the Colts for the past four years he has been considered one of the best high school T quarter- backs in the state. Co-captain Raymond did the kicking, punting, passing and often the running when he shifted to fullback during this last season. For the past two years he has been on the mythica 1 All- District team. Last year he received honorable men- tion on the official All-State team. This year he waschosen to the first string on the All-State Team. Good luck, Raymond, for a bright future! Lineman DAN NORMAN received a berth on the Dallas Morning News sec- ond team for his steady work on the Colt line. JOHN DENNEHY, C o 11 fullback was given honorable mention on the same team. Also chosen to the second string was RICHARD NARCHO. LARRY HUFFORD, faithful tackle of the same mighty team which has gone so far in past seasons, was chosen for the All-District team. Larry, Co-captain of the Colts was a stalwart in the Colt line for the past three years. Receiving honorable men- tion on the Dallas Morning Newsteamwere GARY MARTIN and JOHN DEN- NEHY .Though not pictured, STEPHEN SPEARS and BOBBY WALKER received t h i s s a m e honor. These boys helped considerably in pacing the Colts to vie • tory. KENNETH Me MAS - TERS, one of the leading scorers and mighty men o n the Colt team was se- lected on the second string.

Jump, Raymond Arlington's Colt Basketball team in 1953 had a fairly successful season, though bad breaks and upsets did not bring to A. H. S. any material evidence of victory. The Colts finished in second place with a 6-4 record in district play. The Colt squad, consisting of Kurt Meyer, Ray Glasgow, Valton Crossnoc, Ken McMastcr, Richard Narcho, Kenneth Whitt, Dale Ellis, Jerry Collins, Paul Harris, and Jimmy Finch, played a fine brand of basketball throughout the entire season. Among the leading score rs of the district for the Colts we re Kurt Meyer and Raymond Glasgow. For the entire year the Colts had an impressive record of 13 wins and 12 losses, including tournament play. The Colts participated in the Garland, Waxahachic, and Dr. Pepper (Dallas) Tournaments, though they did not meet with exceptional success. Even with seven graduating seniors on the '53 squad, there promises to be a very fine basket- ball team to look forward to next year.
