SPORTS An important part of Junior College life was typified by the wide range of sports open to the students. In the field of competitive sports, students could join the foot- ball, baseball, golf, tennis, and track teams. For both men and women, physical education classes offered a release of athletic energy. Page 29

The 1956 football season brought TJC its second consecutive Illinois Junior College Championship. Our gridiron gladiators had a fabulous year, ending up with a seven win, no loss record. Through the unde- feated seven game slate the Bulldogs outscored their opponents 190 to 40, beating such teams as La Salle-Peru, Wheaton B, Morton, Joliet, Wright, North Park, and Wilson. During the latter part of the season the team was informed by Coach FOOTBALL Schloss that they were being considered for the Little Rose Bowl in Los Angeles and the Junior Rose Bowl in Pasadena. However, they weren't if chosen for either of the bowls. It was a bitter disappointment, but just being considered was an honor in itself. The team received further na- tional recognition when its co-captains, Jerry Lenke and Rich Titi, were chosen for the Junior College All-Amercan Team. It was a great season and a fitting tribute to the fine coaching ef- forts of Peter Schloss and his assistant Ron Ferguson. | Row 1: Jack Nelson, manager, Bill McCann, Al Pallay, Larry Hochberg, Ray Esche, Jerry Lenke, Gordon Ingbretson, Ken Savage, Rich Titi, Joe Ingala. | Row 2: Tom Snow, Larry DeVore, Elliott Marovich, Tom Seliga, Jan Zapchenk, Jerry Stoltz, Wally Shatkowski, Tom Jouse, Rich Genovese, Tony LePore, Bill Luna.
