FRESHMEN . . . The T954 freshman football squad, under the direction of Mr. Charles Wahl and Mr. Robert Rex, compiled a seasonal record of two losses and one tie. The Bullpups lost to Napoleon 12 to 6, and to Bryan, 13 to 0. Their only tie was with Napoleon, 7 to 7. Harry Heilman and Gary Ordway were two of the outstanding players who gained valuable experience which will help them hold their own in varsity competition in future years. JUNIOR HIGH . . .
