IACK WARD Hullbock AARON DUPUY G nord TOM MAILEY Tackle Fortier 0: Nicholls 'I9 A surprisingly strengthened Fortier team held the Rebels from Nicholls High School to a 19-0 score. The first touchdown came as a cli- max of a drive which started on the Fortier 38- yard line after the Johnnie Rebs had recovered a Fortier fumble. Shepherd scored on a quarter- back sneak and Stanley added the extra point. The second tally resulted from a recovered For- tier fumble on the Tarp 2-yard stripe. Seybold missed the extra point. The Rebs' final marker climaxed an 87-yard drive from their own 13- yard line. Fortier 65 Easton I4 After the scoreless first period featured by the excellent kicking of Charlie Jung and Mike Bellipanni, the Eagles scored their first touch- down. A kick had put the ball on the Eags' 36- yard line and on the first play from scrimmage in the second period Provenzano cut off his own right tackle for 64 yards and a touchdown. Belli- panni converted to give the Easton Eagles a 7 to 0 lead. With but 13 seconds remaining in the first half, Provenzano again broke away for a touch- down, this time for 39 yards. Bellipanni once more kicked the extra point and at the end of the half Easton led, 14 to 0. The teams battled on even terms in the third quarter, but in the fourth, Fortier made a 75-yard touchdown drive mostly on power plays. The climax came with Captain Lenny Grosz sneaking over from the one-yard line. Mailey's try for the extra point failed.

Page Fifty-five Fortier 0: Jesuit 28 In the next game the Tarps lost to Merlin Remmers and his fleet-footed mates from Jesuit High, 28 to 0, before 4500 fans. The Jays' first touchdown ,came after Remmers returned White's punt 23 yai'ds to: the Tarpons' 27. After a first down had been inade, Caswell Brown passed to Remmers for theiscore, the latter converting for the extra point. The Blue Jays recovered a For- tier fumble on the Tarp 18, and after two line plays had picked up 9 yards, Remmers circled end for the second touchdown, and again added the extra point. The third jay touchdown came as a result of a sustained drive from the 50-yard line with Remmers plunging over from the 2- yard line, and again adding the extra point. The final score of the game came when Banowitz plunged over from the 1-yard line to climax a jay drive. Correa added the extra point. The loss of4White early in the game, because of a bad appendix hurt the Tarpon chances consid- erably. Foriter Op Holy Cross 73 After being stunned by a 63-yard run by jack Ward early in the first period, the Holy Cross Tigers came back and used everything they had to down the Fortier Tarpons, 73 to 0, in one of the worst defeats in Tarpon history. The Tarpons' only scoring threat came in the open- ing minutes of the first period, when jack Ward ran 62 yards on an off tackle smash and was caught from behind by Hillary Chollet. Grosz picked up the first down, but the Tiger line clamped down and the ball went over on downs. Student managers Maurice Eagan, Delery Vega and Williant Evans handled many an important chore for the Tarp gridders and did a swell fob of it too. i t
