Although our I954-55 season was without'a victory, Mr. Osness Iikes to remember those few moments when glory seemed so cIose.Our Limestone game was perhaps the hardest fought game in our schedule, the game with Tremont saw victory slip away in the closing seconds, and, after holding Eureka scoreless for three quarters, we saw them slip across for a score at the last moment. This well coached, hard fighting team will be hard for Coach Osness to forget. While Coach Osness watched defeat, Mr. Johnston directed his Frosh-Soph Team to a victorious season. Success in games with Central, Morton, Lacon and Metamora predicts future success for Mr. Osness Eureka half sends Panther tackler sprawling. Legel and Hett stop Lime- stone back.
