Late Rally Defeats F.V. The regular season game between the Chargers and the Fountain Valley Barons was one of the most exciting games that this bitter rivalry has pro- duced. It was once again the game to decide the Sunset League champion. The Barons outplayed the Chargers for the first three quarters to take a 14- lead. With just over nine minutes to play, Dave Geroux scored a touch- down from one yard out to cut the lead to 14-7. The Chargers then got the ball back with 3:40 left on their own twenty yard line following a missed Baron field goal attempt. With two minutes left, Ken Major unloaded a 45 yard flea- flicker bomb to Mel Jackson to put the ball on the Barons ' 23 yard line. The Chargers moved the ball to the two yard line and a fourth down with just 1 9 seconds to play. Quarterback Ken Ma- jor took the center snap, headed right, and with Geroux and Dino Bell block- ing, scored untouched. Coach work- man elected to go for two points and the win, and used the same play with the same result. Final score: Chargers 15, Barons 14. Dino Bell (2) cuts to the inside (top right) tollow- ing a handoff by Ken Major (10) to avoid Foun- tain Valley pursuit. Troy Seurer (40) and Rick Dibernardo (89) {bot- tom right) sack Fountain Valleys quarterback to halt a drive. 42 Football
