By JERRY MONTGOMERY
Eleven years ago, the silver
spurs became the symbol of vic-
tory to be awarded to the winner
of the annual clash between Lub-
bock High and Montereyl.
Monterey High School opened in
1955. That year the Monterey Stu-
dent Council asked for suggestions
for such a symbol. Silver spurs
were proposed and approved by
both student bodies. A committee
headed by Mr. Robert Knight and
Mr. B. F. Randles purchased the
spurs.
Monterey won the first contest
in 1956, 27-7. In 1957 Lubbock
gained possession of the spurs but
lost them the following year. From
1958-1962 Monterey held them.
Lubbock again stole a victory and
the spurs in 1963 and has retained
them since.
With the opening of Coronado,
a new problem arose. Would the
spurs remain the symbol of victory
between just Monterey and Lub-
bock? So far, the spur game, be-
ing a tradition of the two schools,
has remained a “private” game.
For the first time this year
Monterey and Lubbock, have been
divided into different zones. There-
fore, the spur game will no longer
be a district game between the
two high schools. Because of the
zone division and the problems in-
volved, a committee has been ap-
pointed to consider details con-
cerning future Monterey-Lubbock
games.
