DALE LONG 162 lbs. Duke was s w it c h e d from guard to halfback and added the necessary punch for a winning com- bination. He tallied six TDs and was the back- bone of arugged defense. Duke im p ro ved every game he played and he leaves a big hole to be filled next year. LYLE HILFE RTY 190 lbs. Lyle completes the Big Four of the Senior Class. As a rangy, I'011gh. dependable e nd, Ly 1 e ranked second to none. His pass snatching also was a highlight ofthe Pirate attack. He pulled in 5 TD passes and scoop- ed up a fumble for a six- th af... NEAL VLASIN 220 lbs. Rugged, cool, and plenty of desire seem to best describe Neal. He an- chored the center of the line and kept opponents honest. His bonecrush- ing tackles and blocks oftentimes turned the trend of the game in the Pirates favor. Neal is a four letter winner. KENNY CAROTHERS 162 lbs. Ken was the hard-luck boy again this year. He was just beginning to hit his stride when he cracked his jaw. Kenny is a ver- satile ball-player alter- nating between end and quarterback. He posses- ses a deadly passing arm and is certain to deal op- posing pass defenses fits another year, We are glad to see he has another year with the Pirates. LARRY HOUTZ 155 lbs. Versatile Luke led the squad scoring on 11 TDs and 15 PATS. He alter- nated between quarter- back and halfback. Like Duke and Neal, he is a four year letterm an. Luke shone best in open- field running. He was named to All-State Hon- orable-Mention. NL :ii GAYLEN BATES 160 lbs. Gaylen was a newcomer to the Pirate squad this year and gave us a well balanced backfield. He tallied 42 points for his efforts and displayed a lot of talent on defense. We are looking forward to more of the same type of play next year.
