Their offensive and defensive tactics were similar to those used by the varsity tearn. This enabled the two teams to exchange such valuable players as Bill Mayer, Richard Truman, Larry Arthur, Ben Neely and Ken Baldridge. Under the leadership of their captain, Richard Truman, they challenged the varsity squads of many of their opponents. Bill Mayer, voted most outstanding player, and most promising Sophomore, Larry Arthur, through their great efforts, were the main factor in the Spartan J.V.',s thundering success.

GAME CHULA VISTA 6 SWEETWATER T4 Chula Vista's Homecoming Game again brought the staunch rivals, Sweet- water and Chula Vista, together. The gridiron belonged to the Spartans during the first half in such phases as blocking, tackling, and rushing. Chula Vista drew Devil blood early when the first touchdown was made by Gary Hewitt, without a conversion. Late in the second quarter Sweetwater came back to score their first touchdown and point. The Devils were fired up, as were the Spartans, and it became a hard battle on both sides. Defensively and offensively each drove hard with Sweetwater smashing over the goal line for another touchdown and point. Chula Vista fought to gain a lead over the Red Devils but defeat ECHOED through the stands, no louder than the cry of loyal Spartans: Wait 'til next year! lookout for advancing Devils.

The Cougars scored late in the first quarter to lead the race until the beginning of the fourth period. A great opportunity was lost when a lateral pass from Virchis was fumbled under the goal posts, but the Spartans came back to tie the score at 7-7. The Cougars were on the march and even though the Spartans displayed excellent defensive tactics the drive ended with a touchdown and victory for Escondido.
