The Panthers ended another football sea- son and the banquet tours that go with a successful season. For the most, we had a very fine year. Following our 18-6 prac- tice win over neighboring Vernal, the Rangely gridders won six and lost three, The highlight of the season was a tremen- dous upsetting victory over Meeker, the first since the two schools began their ri- valry ten years ago. Once again the Panthers were guided by Coach Mike Wargo and two new assistants, John Cowan and Jerry David, Dean Barrett, 6' 3 pass-catching whiz, earned a first team berth on the All-State team at an end post, the first such honor bestowed on a Rangely gridder. Two other standouts in the line receiving honorable mention plaudits were Herman Young, lit- tle l42 lb, guard and Bill Hefley, 190 lb, tackle. All played their final year for the Green and White. Our backfield was a well-balanced one with Ken Shellhammer, assuming the Field General role at quarterback. Bill, Hoppy McKnight, showing breakaway potentials at a halfback post. Armando Martinez, a pint-size scat back, was a terror on de- fense. Jay Yount, junior fullback was a workhorse when not restrained by injuries. Yount played brilliantly in the finale a- gainst Meeker, scoring all of Rangely's points. COLLINS BARBER AND BEAUTY SHOP Best Food in Town - SNAK BAR

RANGELY 18 VERNAL 6 The Panthers opened the 1956 football season with a controlled game scrimmage against Vernal after a week of drill and fun- damentals and were surprisingly sharp with an 18-6 victory. The throwing of McKnight and receiving of Dean Barrett, All-State End, accounted for two touchdowns and Yount's power running showed signs of a good running game. RANGELY 13 ROOSEVELT 6 The Panthers showed a well-rounded of- fense in upsetting a highly regarded Utah eleven. Barrett's pass-receiving and the run- ning and passing of Bill McKnight kept the Union club off balance throughout the game, Yount showed signs of breakaway ability and Ken Shellhammer, Rangely's fine quarter- back, mixed his winning game will with his short passes to Barrett and Martinez. Barrett scored the first TD and McKnight tallied the second, RANGELY 53 WALDEN 0 A parade of touchdowns by Mar- tinez, McKnight and Barrett led the Panthers over Walden in a lop-sided contest. Armando Martinez, Senior scat back, had his greatest day on the gridiron racing for two long jaunts with McKnight's long heaves to Barrett counting for three, RANGELY 40 OAK CREEK 0 The Rangely Panthers opened with a burst of the brilliant broken field running by Ar- mando Martinez, He scored on long jaunts in every fashion, offensive runs, punt returns, and pass interceptions. Kenny Shellhammer had bull's eye accu- racy in connecting on seven out of eight passes, one for a touchdown to Dean Barrett, McKnight and Yount added the other scores and McKnight tacked three of five conver- sions and Yount two, The formidable Rangely line led by Bill Hefley, Ed Cary, Herman Young and reliable Gordon Goddard, held the once powerful Miners to a total of 18 yards. Barrett and Turner turned in fine defensive and offensive action. RANGELY 6 CRAIG 13 The Panthers opened league play with a brilliant type of offense and defense. The running of Martinez, McKnight and Shell- hammer showed devastating power. The loss of Yount during practice played an impor- tant part in the Panther defeat, Martinez scored the Panthers' only touchdown after Barrett found himself on the end of a 50-yard pass from Hoppy McKnight. Coaches David, Wargo and Cowan were the men- tors of the Panther tearr this year. ,QQ RANGELY EXCHANGE
