GRIDIRON TIGERS Bethalto 7-0, Lost Assumption 21-0, Lost Gillespie 6-6, Tie Madison 18-7, Lost Highland 53-0, Won St. Vincent 39-0, Lost Cahokia 7-6, Won Jacksonville 28-6, Lost Larry Mosher Bob Eads Frank Dollins Bob Wheatley FOOTBALL The team this year didn’t win as many games as everyone hoped they would, but they played some very strong teams and they can be proud of their showing against them. Probably one of the factors that influenced the win record was the injuries to many of the first stringers. Most of the younger boys made very fine showings in substitution for injured players. The experience they gained this year should be invaluable to next year’s team. Coach Taylor can be proud of the fight put up by the boys he coached so well. In the Homecoming game the team met a very strong team from Perryville, Mo., and as the old saying goes, “You can t win them all.” The Tigers lost their first Homecoming game in thirteen years. The graduating lettermen are Bob Geiger, Jerry Wade, Don Tungate, Herbert Brown, Jim Kelso, Bob Pentecost, Bob Eads, Larry Mosher, Frank Dollins, Bob Wheatley, Stan Pfost, and Bill Collins. 8 there here there here there here here there
