How many people would take time from their work to spend hot, sweaty hours whipping a high school football team into shape? Joe Ser- ralta did. Joe was the man who coached the team in their trial ex- hibition game last year against St. John's, and he volunteered his ser- vices to Coach Furculo to help with this year's team. , Any member of the team will tell you that they couldn't have made it without Joe. He contributed a football knowledge and a regimen- tary discipline to mold the team into a winning unit. Handling the de- fensive team while Coach Furculo worked with the offense, he taught the boys how to move, to react, to fig, handle any situation which might arise. Commonwealth will always be indebted to the man whose encourage- ment, moral strength and love for football was a vital factor in insuring the success of the school's first team.

1 ' ' Q. K 5471 39 -. sid M., , ,xg , ...aa M, t K QI. .4 ,st .t U xg. 2 Z MIKE GILBERT I' X Norby, Mike John and Bobby. These four Comets made up the backfield for Commonwealth. They were the scorersg they were the ones who had to react, to think clearly under pressure. It was they who would take all the blame for lost fumbles, a poorly timed handoff, or a dropped pass. These four were also the heroes. Mike Gilbert's cool thinking, pinpoint passing and football instinct enabled him to quarterback three victories. His passing was consistently accurate and he exhibited a great deal of speed when forced to resort to scrambling. Bobby Pulliam proved to be a durable, quick tailback and it was he that made our off-tackle play the best ground-gainer the team used. Gaining good yardage almost everytime he ran and becoming a reliable' re- ceiver made him one of the top scorers. Norby Flei- sig was the most elusive of our runners, gaining yards on kick-off returns. I-le was the one called on when short yardage was essential, always good for those few needed yards. He was also instrumental as ablocker on passes. John Zito was our short fast fullback who specialized in cuts to the outside. A good blocker, sturdy runner and good receiver, he took part in alot of crucial scoring in our football games. Lyle Gray and Johnny DeVries also alternated as backs for the Comets. I49
