Last Year CLINTON EDGES KNIGHTS, 14-13 CLINTON, Iowa — Clinton’s River Kings scored two big touchdowns in the first quarter here Friday night and held on doggedly to defeat Assumption High School 14-13. The Knights, who scored first, blanked Clinton in the remaining three quarters and had two fourth period touchdowns called back. In the third frame John Fen- nelly’s pass into the end zone was dropped, which cut off another Knight TD. Assumption took the opening kickoff 85 yards for the night’s first tally. Fennelly snuck over from Clinton’s one yard line. Assumption fumbles accounted for both Clinton touchdowns. The River Kings picked up a loose ball on their 44 yard- line and moved it 56 yards for their first tally, with Bill Rose carrying the last 15 yards for the TD. Rose also added the PAT to make it 7-6. Fennelly, back to pass on his 15 after the kickoff, was hit hard, fumbled, and Bob Hammond picked the ball out of the air, scampering to pay dirt. Rose again ran the point after, making it 14-6 Clinton. Assumption added its second marker im the second frame on a drive that began on the Knights’ 46 yard line. Fennelly capped the drive with 6:42 remaining in the period when he rifled a six yard pass to Karl Noonan for the score. Clarence Mason’s run for the extra point was good and the score stood 14-13 Clinton. The second half was a tight defensive battle with Assumption running into bad luck. In the fourth quatrer a Fennelly-to- Noonan pass clicked for a TD, but was called back because of an offside penalty. In the same period, Fennelly, after be- ing hit and brought to his knees, pitched out to Mason who dashed into the end zone for another score, but it was ruled the pitch out was made after the whistle. The win hiked Clinton’s season mark to 2-1, while Assumption now stands 1-3. The Knights won the battle of statistics, however, outrushing Clinton 151 yards to 105 and completing eight passes to the Kings’ one. The eight completions were good for 95 yards. — The Morning Democrat Oct. T, 1960 f 1 • 1 Compliments of trederick SIG FLORAL CO. ( and Associates Formerly Pauli Floral Co.
