ROfrllY CELEBRATES BIRTHDAY High School News The Richmond high school is always a newsy place. First of all, did you know that you, the public, are invited to an assembly at RBCHS tomorrow, Friday, Sept. 23, at 10:15 a.m.? The "Royal Scots," a men's quartet, will sing at that time. No matter what generation you belong1 to, you'll like them for the students liked them last year and the "older generation," namely, Fred Gunderson, says they are good. Admission is free. Last Friday was an interesting day to be at Greeley field for there the Rockets played their first game. All I can say is it's a good thing you have a good sports writer to explain it to you, for aftel-* the game was over I had to ask Darwin's wife what the final score was. I was right there all the time, too. Read his column for a full description of what went on. My trouble is I saw a few things beside the game. So many alumni and their offspring were on the sidelines cheering and looking over former friends' babies and small fry that it's hard for my weak mind to concentrate on the game alone. Then too, Mr. and Mrs. Sheldon, commercial teacher and his wife, had their very small daughter, Karen, at the game and many spectators "ooed" and "ahed" over little Karen. Then, of course, there was the glamorous band that sounded just super when they played during the half. Aren't we lucky to have a leader and band members who practice aJ) summer long so that they are all ready for the football season ? Sharon Jones looked mighty good ,i with her baton and whistle, lead- S . Joseph s parish, died in Chi- | jng the band. Another distraction ^was bus- j that I find very easy on the eyes the cheerleader group.

McHenry 170 RICHMOND-BURTON SPORTS By J>ar Ehorn Rockets Roll Over Palmyra 25-0 The first big game of the season is over and the Rockets have made it fourteen straight in conference play. Coach Ned Morgenson was well pleased with the showing of his squad. The varsity did so well that the last half was played mostly by JVs and freshmen. Palmyra won the toss of the coin and elected to receive, Bob Miller started the game by kicking the ball into the end zone and the ball was brought out to Palmyra's fifteen, yard • line and that's where the action started. In three plays, the boys from Wisconsin had gained just eight yards and had to punt on their last down. West kicked out of bounds on his own thirty-seven yard ljfcp|e, A where the Rockets took over. On the first play, Huff passed to Shaw, good for fourteen yards. On the second piay, stadther pass to . Shaw, w^s gpod for four yards and a first dbwn. (Don't forget in this sixnjian game it takes fifteen yards for a first down.) Rockets tried another pass on the third play but it didn't hit its target, but on the fourth play, Huff passed to Gunderson, good for nineteen yards and a touchdown. At this point, the game was just three minutes old. Gunderson missed the try for extra point and the score stood 6-0. Two minutes later Richmond scored again on a pass from Huff to Loren Miller, good for eighteen yards over all, again the extra point failed, both teams traded punts the rest of the first quarter. The second quarter proved to be a very good defensive for both teams, but the Rockets did manage to get in a six-pointer when Dave Harris went into the game for a fourth down play on the Palmyra four yard line. Dave made short work of it because as soon as the ball was snapped he handed it off and then received it back and ran into the end zone for a four-ya^tj touchdown play. This wa$ his first appearance on the varsity and he is only a sophomore. The try for the extra point failed once again, and this ended the scoring for the first half with Richmond leading 18-0, During the half, the Richmond Burton Community high school band entertained both sides of the field, while on the visiting side they played the Notre Dame Victory march, which is Palmyra's school song. On the west side of 'the field everybody joined in with the band and sang. the Richmond school song (Washington and Lee Swing).

The third quarter started with Richmond on the receiving ehd this time. Bud Jarrett took the ball from his • own eight - yard line arid brought it up to the 25 yard line, where he was tackled hard, by Tehan. The first, play Harris hit Huff with.a pass good for five yards and on the second play Harris picked up twentythree yards around right end. Moments later the Rockets were forced to punt. The; ball changed; hands several times, with neither team making much head-way. With six minutes and twentyfour seconds gone in the third quarter, Palmyra had to boot from their .own twelve yard line and Spiegejbwfff got off a beautiful longr mgh spiral which Bob Christenson caught on his own thirty-six yard line and started up the field picking up perfect blocks all the way. Dick Buchert made the key block necessary for Bob to go into the end zone for another TD. This was a fortyfour yard sprint and it was the longest of the day. Huff made good on the extra point with a plunge over center and the scote stood Rockets 25 and Palmyra^ 0. In the last quanter, Coach Morgenson used Jiis entire squad and the important thing about it was that each man really did his part because they still held the boys from across the line scoreless. The closest Palmyra came to the Richmond goal was on the twenty-three yard line and that was in the third quarter. The fourth period had no scoring so the final count was four touchdowns and one extra point for the horqe side and a big zero for the boys in the purple shirts. We saw lots of new faces at the game and many of the old timers like Howard Christenson, Ray Hermance, Pete Ehorn, Molly Miller and Emily Winn, just to mention a. few.
