5 M DAVID LANE DON PETERSON On Record Book It was a seasoned Chamberlain eleven which represented the school in 1957. Altogether the Chiefs won four games. lost five, and gained one tie. ln manv ways the overall record was deceptive. 'lihev scored l-15 points to their opponents' l2+. 'lihe final four games produced not a victorv, although the opposition outscored the Chiefs bv a bare eight points. Klore than a third of the points scored against Chamberlain came when the flu-ridden Chiefs dressed out only 13 play ers for the last half of the Plant contest. This surprise team closed the season with a tie for sixth place in the conference. Once again Chamberlain was represented with a respect- able amount of talent in the post-season award department. Alan Lebeda, Charles Livingston, and Roy lvilcox were named to the all-conference second team, while David l.ane won honorable mention. All-citv first team included the trio above, while teammates Russ Mercer and David Lane drew assignments on the honorable mention squad.
