Hargrove, Pfeffer, Hicks f Doss, Wadsworth. Trainers JACK DOSS BILL HARGROVWE JIMMY HICKS Managers DONALD WADSWORTH JOHN PFEFFER Overturf is leading the official in the far turn by two lengths, 1 Getting off to a fine start this season, the Tiger football team Won three of its first four games. As the season gained momentum, it became evident that the team was competing in one of the toughest city races there has ever been. Upsets occurred left and right and the Sam Houston eleven, un- fortunately, was the upset on several occasions. The defeats which the team suffered came largely as the result of the opponents' ability to capitalize on S.H. miscues, while the Tigers Were less fortunate in their capital gains. Injury plagued, the squad was weakened to three-quarters of its strength as district play began. Despite the fact that the Tigers must Wait another year for a title bid, the student body is proud of its team and continues to support it. Their fine sportsmanlike conduct, which has Won the Lions Club Sportsmanship Award several times inthe past, is indeed indicative of the undaunted Sam Houston spirit and the appreciation for the hard-Working team.
