ls 60fFootball i l Highlights of the game 2 Ugg?- ' '. . -ff-nglg, E 3 PARKVIEW An outstanding performance by Rus- sellville almost led to an upset over top- ranked Little Rock Parkview. However, time was against the Cyclones as they lost the lead near the end of the game and failed to overcome the Patriots. CONWAY Rival Conway again downed the Cy- clones for the 9th straight year and left the Cyclones with a 1-3 season record. Lutz struggled into the endzone with 3:27 left in the ballgame, and Smith's extra point closed the lead to six. 2 ' ff' 'FW L i. , I ...il I 'fx vu Y S x,,, 1 llv, , .

An Owens-Carr pass socred both the TD and the two- point conversion. MORRILTON Offensive statistics didn't tell the game, remarked Mike Smith. We had a great defensive night. The of- fense wasn't so good, but they did well enough to win. The Cyclones inched past Morril- ton to gain their second win of the season. Tiger Kincaid commented, Ev- erybody was ready to play. That's why we won!

The Bi Red Machine GO RED G A 6 7 1 i I 4 3 HoT SPRINGS Hot Springs dominated the entire ballgame, and the game was a disasterous loss for the Cyclones, leaving them 2-5 on the year. The Trojans scored on the opening kick-off and then controlled the Cyclones at will throughout the rest of the ballgame. ROGERS. Homecoming at RHS ended in a loss to Rogers, who had taken the ifl ranking from Parkview and maintained it for the rest of the year. This was the first time in Cyclone history they had fallen to Rogers, and because it was Home- coming, the loss was harder on the players than any other game of the season. JACKSONVILLE A determined Cyclone team met the Jacksonville Red Devils on their homecoming, confident of victory. A 7-0 Cyclone half-time lead was cut down as Jacksonville rallied to win the ballgame. Lutz and Carr scored Russellville's two TD's, but it was not enough, as the Red Devils pulled away and left the Cyclones defeated. 11 The Big Red Machine prepares to go into action against the Fayetteville Bulldogs1. 21 Kenny Lutz holds up a Van Buren defender as Lee Owens gets a punt away. 31 Richard Peevey is swarmed by the Morrilton front four, but isn't down, as he struggles for that extra yard. 41 Tommy Allen rides a running back to the ground, stopping a possible score. 51 Dave Schauer finds daylight and breaks for the endzone as Mike Smith follows him through the hole, 61 Coach Carnahan keeps in touch with the man upstairs as he watches his running back . . . 71 . . .
