ootballprovided tbriifi and Boontoris heavy line throws Passaic Valley for another substantial loss. Rain marred the first four games of the Boonton High School Bomber's 1955 football season, as we defeated the Newton Cardinals by a score of 26 to 0. The hopes for the season were very optimistic, with our hard charging line and shifty backs; but our hopes were soon literally dragged through the mud as the boys put up two courageous but unrewarded struggles against Roxbury and Morris Hills. After these defeats, the Bombers sprang to life by down:ng both Madison and Passaic Valley and tying Wayne. However, following losses to Pompton Lakes and Dover, the Boonton Eleven concluded the season with a Thanksgiving Day defeat to Butler, 24 to 0. Boonton’s effective line was led by Norby Kalckira, who was an All County selection at tackle, Carl Allieri, named to the All Lakeland Conference Team, and K O. Kolodzieski, who, in his first football season, was voted Boonton's most valuable lineman. It can be safely said that the opposing linemen were none too confident when they faced Boonton. The Bombers were led by Quarterback Leigh Gorman, an excellent faker, passer, and decisive signal caller.

excitement . . . were side lined with leg injuries. Anthony Scorn-fava, known to all B.H S. as ''Scozzy, was always in there putting up a hard battle to the very utmost of his ability. He and the rest of he squad will long be remembered for a fine display of excellent spirit and good sportsmanship. Emerging from the final game of the '55 season and looking forward to the coming year, Boonton shows tremendous promise. With the coming of the next football season, Leigh Gorman will return and, with a year's experience at quarterback, should lead Boonton into a victorious season. Dick Longo will again be found at his halfback slot, equaling his own ground-gaining record of this year. However, Boonton may suffer from the loss of end, Carl Allieri as well as tackle, Dick Gifford. In this respect, Boonton's line may suffer more than its backfield, which is losing both Jack Steinhauser and Tony Scozzafava, who added tremendous boost to this year's team. Each year our team loses many valuable players through graduation. A tribute should be paid to these members of the squad who contributed to the success of the team and have, at the conclusion of this year, written finis to their careers at Boonton High School. Afler a fine pass from Leigh Gorman, Carl Allieri is stopped by Butler. Despite the weather, our cheerleaders never permitted our school spirit to falter. ers To An niial h°ot ers Put 'ootbalfl FeW rere 1 he butVtln,em'La 3 is wst £’snit £J oft V,eJ'si°n Gainst .
