THE BEE TEAM IN ACTION B FOOTBALL Even though the Bee football team finished the season in fifth place in the East Valley League, they never stopped trying and pro- vided many exciting moments of play for the fans. Coach Gordon and Coach Matula felt this season's team was one of the best at Grant and that the league was very evenly matched. For the record, the Bees played one exhibition game and six league games, winning two, losing four, and tying one. The excellent caliber of the Bees was recognized by the selections for All East-Valley honors. John Honea and Richard Wattson made the first team and honorable mentions went to Jim Utz, Ron Taft, and Paul Manning. Seniors on the team were Honeo, AI Plotkins, and Chuck Parkinson. 100
