Tinnell, The heat of summer failed to discourage candidates for Blarianls 1957 football team. They appeared dav after day for practice sessions before malcing their initial appear- ance on the playing field. These gruelling work-outs were not in vain as they resulted in a seasons record of 5 wins and 4 losses. Leading thc hoys in the quest for victory are coaches Bill Golihart and Gene Agleton. Pioneers in Xlarians athletic efforts, the coaches mixed fundamentals, advanced plays, and lessons in goodwill to produce a suc- cessful Colt team.
