106 A few hours before the Eloy game, a team meeting was called to re- view their plays and game strategy. On August 25 the summer vacation ended for the Coolidge varsity football players. The pit welcomed all the players with a clear sky and a hot sunny day. Many long, hot hours were spentin preparation for the season opener with Ajo. The second ranked Ajo Red Raiders came to Coolidge, a favorite over the unranked Coolidge Bears. A last second Red Raider comeback was stifled by the tough defensive unit of Coolidge to defeat the Raiders. The Bears went to Florence looking for victory number two. It was a hard fought ballgame by both clubs, but penalties and mistakes hurt the Bears, to make the final outcome a victory for the Florence Gophers and the only scoreless game of the regular season for the Bears. The following week the Coolidge Bears were plagued by mistakes and penal- ties again as the Tigers pulled out aone point victory. The conference season started with the Bears traveling to Marana. Marana dominated the pass and ground game, but the Coolidge Bears put the points on the scoreboard. The Ray Bearcats came to town but didn't have a chance as the defensive unit of the Bears shut down the Bearcats' offensive minded team.
