October 5, 1956 CARDINAL AND WH ITE Page Seven Flyers On Sunday afternoon, at 2:00 p. m., the Flyers will tangle with DeAndreis High School at Mercy's field. Back in the days when D.A. was still Northside High, Chami- nade slipped by with a 7-6 victory in one of the two encounters - let's see the Flyers do it again. CC vs. Cadasco On September 15, Chaminade opened its 1956 gridiron season against Country Day. Despite the 90 degree temperature and a slightly muddy field, both teams fought hard. Throughout the first half it was a yard for yard battle. In the sec- ond quarter the Flyers retaliated Codasco's early T. D. with a series of smashing drives deep in-to Co- dasco territory - spear-headed by Dardas, Hughes, and Satterthwaite. Hughes capped the drive by power- ing over from the five. The con- version failed and the score re- mained 7-6. Near the end of t-he first half another Codasco touch- down, with conversion, left the score 14-6, and the scoring for the day was done. In the second half, yards were hard fought, in the fourth quarter a Flyer drive was only a few yards from a score, when time ran out. CC vs. Valle On September 23, Chaminade's early iired touchdown eventually bowed to the brilliant runs of the Valle backmen in a 25-14 defeat. The opening minutes of the lst quarter were sparked by Chami- nade's recovery of a fumble and then a lengthy drive, climaxed by Steve Satterthwaite's line plunge. Neverthle-ss, Valle's scatbacks left a half score of 12-7. Again, in the second half, CC capitalized on Valle's fumble and with the pass-receive combination of Brown-Boyer scored the second touchdown. With Willey Garza's second conversion, the score stood at 14 to 12, favor of Chaminade. However, in the 4th quarter, Val1e's backfield explode-d any Cha- minade hopes of victory wit-h a quick touchdown in the last min- utes, and the game ended, Valle 25, 'Chaminade 14.

Alan Hamilton JUNIOR DANCE November 9 See Homeroom Representatives for tickets. Hughes. Boyer hit Codasco Jinntlmll Star Chaminade's star halfback, Steve Satterwaite, appeared in a St. Louis County court as a witness in a civil suit. Are you on the Chaminade football team this year? querried the judge. Yes, your honor. What position? Halfback, your honor. How good a halfback? Satterwaite squirmed in his chair, but in confident tones ad- mitted, Sir, I'm the best halfback Chaminade ever had. Their coach, Mr. Henry Buffa, who was in the courtroom was surprised, because the lad had always been modest and unassuming. When proceedings were adjourned, the coach asked him why he had made such a statement. Satterwaite blushed. I hated to do it coach, he ex- plained, but after all, I was under oath. PEP RALLY On Friday, September 14, the day before the Chaminade-Country Day game, our school expressed one of their best known qualities: school spirit. As the band gave forth with the victory song, and the team entered the gym, our stu- dent body, freshmen to seniors, cheered enthusiastically. After such healthy cheering, co-captains Dave Dempsey and Charlie Brown ex- pressed how much cheering meant to the team on the field. Other highlights of the rally in- cluded the C Team introduction, Bro. Callahan's presentation of the baseball trophy of last May, and Coach Buffa's address. The rally was climaxed with Father Blume's blessing of the entire team.

Ay, from it pealed the brazen tongue That called the soul to prayer, That tolled a solemn fun-eral dirge And dumped its goodness on the air. Her floors, long scutfed by student feet, Where knelt the squirming male, Where master 'preached a long retrewt And called them to the rail- No more shall feel the Father's march Or know the bended knee: The wreckers with their forked bars Have ended its misery.
