The boys not only won more games but also showed a better spirit in their playing. Last year Tyler won only two games out of eight, defeating Salem and Tannery this season she scored victories over Pennsboro, Salem, and The Industrial School for Boys. The big game of the year was played against Sistersville on the Tiger's field. Since Sistersville is one of Tyler's greatest rivals the boys fought harder than usual, but lost in the end to the score of 15-6. Pennsboro was handed a surprise when the Tyler lads defeated them for the first time in football history, by the score of 15-O. Tyler was victorious over another old rival when she defeated Salem 7-6. The game with Harrisville was a very exciting one, Tyler leading at the half 6-O. Harrisville got a safety in the third quarter and in the last five seconds of play scored a touchdown and won the game 9-6. A new opponent for Tyler this year was the Industrial School for Boys which Tyler defeated 59-O. In the last game of the season, which was played with Grantsville, the local boys were held scoreless. Although defeated 19-O, Coach Christie said that they played one of the best games of the 393.30110 Those lost to the football team when the season opens next fall will be: Eward Allen, Carlton Baker, Wendell Baker, Gwynn Doak, Clarence Duckworth, Lawrence Haught, William Long, Howard Pyle, Norman Lemasters, Richard Seckman, Charles Smith, David Spencer, Lionel Underwood and Edward Virden.

L This year twice with the B A S K E T B A L L in basketball Tyler played each opposing team exception of the Industrial School for boys, which was only played oneeg the only new opponents to Tyler were the Industrial School for boys and St. Marys. At the high school Tri-Sectional tournament at Sisters- ville, Eward Allen was awarded the honor of substitute on the all-conference team. Although several of the 1955-56 squad will be lost to the team when it resumes practice next year, we feel that they will have a comparatively successful season. In the Inter- class tournament the Sephomores were victorious over the other classes which shows that in the next few years Tyler should have a very successful basketball team. Those lost to the team when the season opens next year are: Eward Allen, Carolton Baker, Wendell Baker, William Long, Howard Pyle, Charles Smith, Edward Virden, Jack Wilcox. B A S E B A L L As this page is being written May 18, the baseball team is leading the Little-Mountineers conference, having won all five of their conference games, with two games remaining to be played, one Tyler has conference and one non-conference. lest one non-conference game to Cario, 6-2. However this defeat will not be held against Tyler in the Little-Mountineers conference rating, because Cario is not a conference team. Several of the last year's squad were left to open the season, those left on the team from last year are as follows: Wendell Baker, Howard Pyle, Jimmy Jones, David Spencer, Alden Bullman, William Long, Garmen McIntyre, Kenneth Owens, Donald Nolan, Coen Welling, Eward Allen, Junior Kilcoyne, Walter Stealey, Alden Howard. New members are: Gail Buck, Richard Smith, Aubrey Stareher, Fred Baker, Clifford Hadley, Hatzel Davis, and Grady Mann.
