TROY The Indians faced one of their toughest opponents of the year in highly-rated Charles Hender- son High School of Troy. The Trojans jumped off to a quick lead in the first quarter and add- ed another tally in the second period which put them in front for good. Troy was waiting and poised for the outstanding ground attack of the Indians and stopped it with much success. The Indians played one of their most outstanding defensive games of the season and held the Tro- jans scoreless throughout the re- mainder of the game. Wetumpka-0 Troy-14

ALEXANDER CITY After an opening game vic- tory over Prattville, the Indians tasted the first defeat of the 68 season. The Benjamin Rus- sell Wildcats of Alexander City stunned Wetumpka to the tune of 34-14. Jerome Jackson was the key to the victory as he scored three of the Wildcat touch- downs himself. The Indians just cou1dn't come with the right combination, and if it had not been for numerous mistakes it might have been a different ball game entirely.

BIBB COUNTY Little can be said about this contest, in which the Indians never really had a chance to prove their Worth. Wetumpka was in countless scoring posi- tions throughout the game. Be- cause of numerous penalty calls, which were very unusual, our Indians cou1dn't score. Another superb game was play- ed by the Indians' defensive unit. So outstanding was this part of the battle, that Bibb County was held to a one yard total offense. The only Indian score came when Owens blocked a punt and Wilder fell on it in the end zone.
