The Mason defense strikes again! Here heavy- weight Bob Martindale 6671 and Dennis Starnes haul down a Crary runner. They are assisted by Mike Griffis 6791, John Jackson 6401, Keith Fraley 6721, and Curtis Johnson 6701. Seventh, Eighth Grade Football Competition 6 hampers effort Eichman, the lightweight football team pulled oft a season record of 2-2. Their finest hour was in the first game, in which Crary was severly beaten 24-6. Coach Ed Haley and his mighty middle- weights finished the year with a satisfying record of 2-2. They pulled off some big Wins against Pierce, but unfortunately Crary was on the Mason schedule, and tarnished the mid- dle weight image. Unable to pull outof their slump, the heavy- weights ended the season with a heartbreaking U-5 record. In spite of their bad year, Coach Don Castle commended his players. Roger Allen made some good runs for us. We also had some good defensive plays by Mike Griffis and Dennis Starnes, he pointed out. Oh, Well, there's always next year.

Ninth Grade Basketball HSOI1 l'eCOl'Cl bl Ok9l'1 twice In any type of sport, winning is always im- portant, but Winning big is even better. The ninth grade basketball team discovered this quite frequently during the season by breaking Mason's high scoring record twicel The cagers, under the leadership of Coach Donald Castle, had a field day in a game against West Hills, defeating them 72-53. Then again, in an away game against West Bloom- field, Mason came out on top once more, 77-56. The Mariners finished the year with a fine record of 10-6. The prowess of the ninth graders' defense speaks for itself. Here Scott Follis, Jim Ravens 6441, Mike Shanks 1127, and Gary DeVar wait for the rebound. 104 Ninth Grade Basketball.
