Last Year BULLDOGS BITE KNIGHTS, 32-14 By JOHN O'DONNELL Sports Editor Coach Merrit Parson’s alert Bettendorf Bulldogs continued merrily on their way to another undefeated season Friday night before a record crowd of 5,002 at their field when they defeated Assumption High, 32-14. It was the 23rd victory for the hard- playing Bulldogs without a defeat. The Knights threw a scare into the Bull- dogs at the outset of the game, taking the ball on a sustained drive and never relen- quishing it. Bob Solis, Clarence Mason and John Fennelly did the advancing. On the eight yard line Fennelly got tricky with faking and handed off to Karl Noonan, who went over for the touch- down. Clarence Mason circled left end for the extra point, and Assumption had a 7 point lead. They picked up one first down and were going for a second when Tom Mason fum- bled and Dick Reiselt of the Bulldogs re- covered on their 30. That was what the ultimate winners needed to get going. The Bulldogs used the fumble to start their second touchdown drive, and things worked out just right for them. Fennelly kicked to Bettendorf. Dilts fumbled the ball, which squirted forward. John Brooke grabbed the ball and went from the Bettendorf 40 to the Assumption 20. On the fourth play Dilts went over for the touchdown. He tried to pick up the fc extra point with a drive over center, but he failed. So with the score 13-7 in their favor, the Bulldogs were on their way to their 23rd victory without a loss. Click Well In the third period they broke the game wide open. They had one touchdown called back because of backs in motion on a pass play. Anything but disturbed, Sparling tossed again to Reiselt. The latter got behind the Assumption defenders and gallopped into the end zone. The play was good for 23 yards. In the fourth period the Knights snapped back offensively and scored their second touchdown of the game after getting the ball on the 34 via a kick. On the third play Fennelly crashed over for the touchdown. Solis picked up the ex- tra point through the line. That left the Bulldogs with a comfort- able 26-14 lead, but they were not satis- fied with that. They wanted more and they got it. With Sparling and Rocker doing first class work and with Dick Barretto running around end 14 yards for the touchdown. That was it for the night. The Knights were the victims of their season’s jinx, the fumble, but they battled the Bulldogs all the way. — The Morning Democrat October 14, 1960 f I . 1 Compliments of trederick SIG FLORAL CO. and Associates Formerly Pauli Floral Co.
