7th football @ Prairie Valley

_______Another loss. This time 36 - 0. Calvin played all game except for the kickoff receiving team, and with the score, there were more than usual! Pictured is of Calvin on his way to assist with a tackle. (The white shoes and black socks) One more game next Monday.

BVU @ Central

____Saturday Abbey cheered for BV at Central in Pella. We went down and joined other family members to take part. BV had a great first half to lose in the second half. We all went out to eat after the game before heading our separate ways. (Calvin had his radio ear bud listing to the Iowa game and couldn't concentrate on both games at the same time, so had his head buried part of the time. Jeff had the other ear bud in his ear listening and reporting to the guy behind us when the score changed.) Iowa lost too. Dave was busy farming and missed the fun. (Abbey is in the back in the tower formation. That is her usual spot, so no decent photos showing her then.)

Thursday Football

____Calvin played in Jefferson against Roland-Story. Jefferson lost 0-22. He was center again the whole game and linebacker. In the 5th quarter he was in the backfield, where he is much more satisfied. Two more games left. Both out of town.

7th Football vs Gilbert

_____Another loss. This time our boys scored more points. Lost 22-36. This team had beaten one of the teams that we had lost to. Here Calvin was running the ball. He held on to it inspite of being "tackled" by his arms. He carried a few times in the 5th quarter. He played the complete A game at center on offense and linebacker on defense, except for a couple times he dropped back to safety. He played other positions in the 5th quarter. Last night he was on the receiving team too and carried once and did ok. There are now less kids than started out the year, so not as many subs.

Don't Know If I Needed This

_____ But I liked it........ But maybe it's a bit like when we were to have a CEU on being assertiveness and my boss told me "Don't you dare go!" ( I think she must have been kidding!)

Class of '57

_____This afternoon ten members of Pop's graduating class from Lohrville High School gathered for an visit and BBQ. (One fellow had left before we got cameras out) A good time was had by all.

Football @ Nevada

_______Our boys lost another one. 20 - 6 this time. Even bigger kids caring the ball tonight. Jerry thinks we need a better lunch program. Dave can't figure out why we have smaller guys, as we have the best donut shop around! Calvin was on the field all the time, except the receiving team. Even played both directions for the 5th quarter, then he got to carry the ball and was corner, instead of linebacker. They were down 3 players since the game last week, two for discipline and one concussion. These pictures are the first from my new camera. I'm learning!!!!
