Coalinga Ties Fowler, Clovis For Division Champonship Two and two was the remarkable record scored by the Coalinga High School football team, the league baby. In two years of play Coach Frank Heath ' s squads lost only two games —one in 1936, an exhibition game with Lemoore, the other to Fowler in 1937, while winning lu and lining one. Coalinga stepped out of her class to play Lemoore, and. al- though defeated, she did much better than expected. Against Fowler, ihis year, Coalinga had much the stronger team and chalked up foul Brat downs while Fowler found it hard to muster six. In the second quarter, however, a Fow- ler half-hack got through for a sixty-yard run to a touchdown. Nobody knew then, and still no one k n o w s how he managed to gel away from Coalinga ' s lini and secondary.
