Taking advantage of AHS mistakes, Vocacional Tres defeated the Bears, 30-6. on Saturday morning, February 24. Defense was the name of the game in the first half, as both offenses were stymied by rugged defenses. The Eagles received the first real break in the game as Victor Ruiz returned a punt 37 yards. Five plays later the Eagles scored on an off-tackle play from the four yard line. The extra point attempt was broken up, leaving the score 0-6. Fired up, the Bears roared back, taking possession of the ball at the Eagle 31 yard line. This time the Bears drove all the way as Marshall climaxed the drive passing to Stutzmann, from ten yards out for the only Bear touchdown of the day. The con- version failed and the half time score was 6-6. The second half began with Vocacional Tres kicking, off to the Bears, with what seemed an ordinary kick off. Yet, as the ball trickled into the end zone, no one downed it, and an Eagle lineman pounced on the ball for an easy score. Suddenly the score was 6-14, and the Bears never recovered from the shock. Vocacional Tres took full advantage of the situation, and the next time they qot the ball, they drove all the way for a tou'ch- down in ten plays. The conversion made the score 22-6. The final score came in the last minutes of the game as an Eagle lineman inter- cepted a Chambless aerial and coasted into the end zone. The extra points boosted the score to the final 6-30 tally. voc.3 o 6 16'l 8 Tao' A.H.s. o 6 o o 6'

Freshman Sandy Cobb 1831 pegs Yaquis' play before quarterback can hand off the ball. The AHS Bears began their Junior Var- sity football season with an 8-6 victory over Club Yaquis, Saturday morning, Feb- ruary 17. The Bears dominated the first quarter with their aggresive running game, al- though they were unable to score due to numerous penalties. Offensive second chances were provided by the fierce Bear defense which forced the Yaquis into fourth down punting situations. In the second quarter, the Bears finally cashed in on a ten yard end run by quarter- back John Marshall. Chambless went the same route for, what proved to be, the deciding two points. Two intercepted passes by linebacker Bob Gibson frustrated Yaquis' attempts to sustain a drive in the air, thus ending the half with the Bears on top 8-0. The AHS offensive lost steam in the third quarter while the Yaquis pumped passes through a weak spot in the Bear secondary. Early in the fourth quarter, the opponents clicked on a 49 yard pass play which deposited the ball on the AHS three yard line. The Yaquis plunged over for a six-pointer. The AHS defense tightened and the two point attempt failed. Fighting the clock, the Yaquis success- fully recovered an onside kick. From the Bear 45 yard line the Yaquis drove, via the air, to the Bear eight yard line before the AHS defense could stop them. Preserv- ing their two point lead, the Bears ran out the clock.

The AHS Bears inflicted total defeat on football newcomer Amado Nervo on Satur- day morning, March 2, with a devastating 62-0 score. The Bears scored eight times with seven conversions on the nine occa- sions they had the ball and rolled up 419 yards on the ground. The scoring marathon began immedia- tely as Stutzmann coasted in from nine yard line for the first touchdown. Haltback Stutzmann repeated the feat once again by whirling left end for 19 yards and another score. The next tally came when the Bears blocked an Amado Nervo punt and recover- ed it on the 13 yard line. Stutzmann rambled around left end from the nine yard line to bring the score to 24-0. Gaining the ball again, quarterback Marshall spun around left end from ten yards out for a 32-O half time lead. The Bears' first score in the second half came by Bob Gibson's 25 yard touch- down run. Chambless climaxed the next AHS drive with a 43 yard journey for a score, after Hernandez had intercepted a pass at the Bear 41 yard line. The Bears drove 80 yards for their next tally, culminated by Marshall's three yard plunge. Before the game could end, Gibson, playing fullback, scored with a ten yard glgrgst, that raised the score to a decisive AMADO NERVUST- o o o o o A.
