Satterthwaite for a first and ten. lin Valley Player stopped. Hard-hitting, hard-driving, hard-fighting--these are the adjectives that characterize the '56 Flyers on the gridiron. They were a hardy contingent who battled through a formidable season climaxed by the 30-13 victory over Marquette and the 12-6 victory over Coyle. Spirited by the consistent and firm coaching of Mr. Henry Buffa and Bro. William Callahan this year's football squad showed sportsmanship under hardship. Their 2 victories out of 6 games belittles the real success of their manliness evidenced in action. No little of this credit goes to co-captains, Gene Hughes and Dave Demp- sey. Charles Brown, injured during the season, was elected honorary captain. All the senior players merited mention on the Catholic League All-Star roster: Gene Hughes earned a first-string herthg Richard Boyer placed on the second-string team. Gene Hughes also received honorable mention for the all-District team. Q . . Hughes around enl. in IL First and ten, do it again! Congratulations, coaches and team!

'Q .4-V Bro. Ray Davenport Drive ! s.. A 'fx ws- , ' ,I b-Wa Y-ah Fabulous is the only word to describe the invincible Ceezers of Chaminade. Undefcated in six games, the '56 C team gives every hope of being the dis- trict's triple threat in three years. These youngsters on the gridiron were rugged and fast, shifty and clever, accurate and agile both in practice and in game ex- perience. But,most important, they were gentlemen always. The school is proud of them. And proud,too, it is of their excellent coaches , Bro. Ray Davenport and Bro. Cy- ril Boschert,whose cagy strategy was mir- rored in the players they trained. Their leadership, also, was reflected in the co- captains who did much to inspire the un- defeated season - Pete Knese and Mike McCarthy. Three cheers for the Ceezers ! Bro. Cyril Boschert Hit him low! Opponents Ghaminade St. Marys 7 21 Coyle 6 Cathedral O McBride 14 Priory 6 Assumption 7 f H? ,Mp- .v DJ
