I I 'Ev Misner breaks through again. C.C. 27 Ottawa 6 Nearly ten thousand fans witnessed an Indian massacre in which the Ottawa tribe was tamed by a pack of wild Cougars. The clean, hard football played by Catholic forward wall paved the way for the deter- mined backs and thus the game was half won. The Sowle-men, trained for rough and tumble football, held the defensive half of the contest in the palms of their hands. The Indians, unable to conform to football at its best, crumbled. C.C. 28 Creston 6 Catholic treated seven thousand home-coming fans to a sound 28 to 6 victory over the Creston Polar Bears. The powerful Cougars, with two top backs, Bill Shuple and Tim Barager and star lineman, Mike Ward, out with iniuries, amassed nearly 400 yards rushing while a rock-ribbed defense paced by Dan Blain, George .lackoboice and Chuck Collins held the Polar Bears a mere 36 yards. With the game only i0 plays old, Bob Quist scored from 29 yards out. Catholic's second T. D. also came in the first stanza with Pat Dennis sprinting 30 yards around left end for the score. Later in the first half, Bob Misner skirted the end from half a yard out for Cath- olic's third touchdown and a 21 to 7 lead at half time. Dennis climaxed the scoring for the night by blasting over from the 2 for his second T. D. of the game. They're doing the Bunny-Hop.
