bishops barbeque bantams, cop city crown ONLY A FEW MORE yards thinks Skip Davey as he grabs a pass. Leon Cooper gives assistances against the formidable Charleston High eleven. Underneath the excitement and yells of the pep rallies and pep parades which traditionally surround the Bishop England-Charleston High games, tenseness and suspense were ever present. The game brought the highly touted defensive specialists of Bishop England, the Cannibals, against the area's number one offensive punch, the half-back tandem of Charleston High, Kenny Rhea and Denny Patrick. In the second stanza the Bantams were in business by grabbing the fumble on the Bishops 13. The Ban- tams pushed it across in three plays. The Cannibals dug in and blocked the extra point. ' Later in the period, after taking a BE punt, the Bantams threatened. On the first play for scrim- mage,Charleston High shook their fullback loose all the way to the Greenies' five yard line where he was caught from behind on a fine effort by Leon Cooper, who stormed out of nowhere to make the tackle. At this point the inspired Cannibals refused to be moved and smothered the Bantams for losses on the next three plays. Taking over on their own 21 the Bishops drove 79 yards for the tying TD. Half-back Robert Melendez passed 17 yards around end for the score. The PAT was blocked. The winning score came the first time the Bishops got the ball in the third quarter. Robert Melendez took it over from the one. Both teams threatened in the fourth period but neither were able to reach paydire. The Cannibals, who would not be denied, hung on to preserve the 12-6 win which earned for them the mythical city championship. CHARGEI Billy Runey and Mickey Jones clear the way for Harrry Wertan.

TO THE RESCUE comes John Owens as determined Jack Albers retains the ball. Tommy Lovelle is kept in the back- ground by St. Andrews' players. SIDE HOOK is fired in by Ephie Clark as Charlie Straney keeps his eye on the ball. Page Ninety-Four W' in 15 - 3 record places BOYS' CAGE CAPSULE We They 91 ... ...

Sailing along, undefeated, uncontested, the galloping Greenies slew all comers during the month of December. However, BE was not the only team traveling along the victory road, for the Charleston High School was also thus far undefeated. Finally the night came for the meeting of the unscathed warriors.
