The Blue and Gold rolled through the six-game season with four victories, one tie, and one defeat. It was evident to pre-season observers that the backfield of Kimtis, Goralski, Lyons, and Fliess was top-notch, but many shook their heads at the seemingly weak line. However, under Mr. Scott's rigid training, the forward wall came through in fighting style. Such men as Hogan, Cox, Alohnston, and Hutton showed outstanding ability. The Big T opened the season by shutting out Adelphi, 19-0. On the following Saturday, Coach Nevin's crew travelled to Pingry where they won, 19-6. This game was highlighted by a spectacular return by Trinity of a kick-off. Don Kimtis took the ball, cut toward the side- lines, pivoted, and sent a backward lateral to Bill Goralski, who went seventy-four yards for a touchdown. In its next contest, the Blue and Gold trounced Hackley 25-6. In the second quarter, Don Kimtis fired a long touchdown pass to Doug Lee in the coffin cornerf' Coming from behind, Trinity tied Englewood 13-15 in the fourth game of the season. A last-second pass from Don Kimtis to Gerry Lyons in the end zone and Bill Goralski's conversion saved the Varsity from defeat. After losing a close contest to Riverdale 14-6, the Big T rebounded to overwhelm Stony Brook completely by a score of 20-0 in the season finale. 36
