team Wins again. After a week filled with flag-raising and slab painting, the anxiousl awaited St. Thomas vs. Mar- ian game arrived as the Eagles edged past a hard- fighting Marian team to the score of 31 to 0. Fum- blitis and inexperience didn't help the Colts' passing attack but aided the Eagle cause. Fired up for homecoming game and all-out to win against a rival Houston team, the Colts whipped Mt. Carmel 14 to 6 to record its third T.C.I.L. vic- tory. A driving rain left the field soft and soupy, and found the Colts at halftime on the losing end of a 7 to 6 score, but they soon overcame these barriers. Despite bad weather, Gene Cegielski picks up a first- down against St. Pius, as guards john Reece f37l and Willie Tinnell 135D come to assist. At halftime, the fans got into the act as the new cars used to present homecoming queen candidates were helped out of the mud. The coldest night of the year found the Colts playing the last game of the season with the seniors on the team facing the football fans for the last time. Conquering the St. Pius X team for a 20 to 6 victory, the Colts exhibited the skill and experience gained this season. VVith 14 returning letterrnen for the ,58 season, Coaches Bill Colibart and Gene Agleton view a bright future to follow the successful past. An anxious team awaits the ball to be snapped as quarterback Fra n k Mc- Keown calls the signals. The Colts won against Sacred Heart of Hallettsville, 26 to 14.
