Football Summary. . Another football season in the short history of Cen- tral Catholic athletics faded away with the smoke from the official time-keeper's gun at the South Bend Catholic contest. The athletic careers of many Seniors were brought to an abrupt halt with the crack of that six shooter. Some, of course, will go on to conquer larger fields of competitive sports: but for the most part our departing grads will never again thrill to the thundering roar of the grandstands voicing their ap- preciation of a, bone-crushing tackle or a phantom- like end sweep which results in a game-winning touchdown. Rather, a game-tying touchdown: be- cause there was no such thing as a game-winning touchdown for the team of 945. Seven times our battle-weary Indians donned the war paint to clash with the foe on the field of friendly strife. Seven times our Redmen felt the sting of de- feat. They'll joke about our perfect record and tough ones to lose, but down in the hearts of those intrepid athletes who played the game Saturday after Saturday, within the boys who took the bumps and came back fighting, lies the knowledge that what they did was not in vain. They knew they had de- fended the most cherished tradition in C. C. Ath- letics. Never has a Central Catholic team lain down on the job. From the opening seconds with Hammond High right down to the last minute of the South Bend Catholic game our boys played right up to the hilt for the glory of the school.
