FOOTBALL GLEN ALLEN 40—MANCHESTER 0 In their fourth game the Panthers had to go all out to defeat a stubborn Thomas Dale eleven from Chester. The Panthers started as if they were going to run the Chester team out of the City Stadium but a fumble on the 6-inch line stopped their early first period drive. This bad break seemed to stymie the team and they could not engineer another scoring march, However, late in the second period Billy Thacker broke through to block a Dale punt and Tinsley recovered for the initial score. In the fourth period Tinsley passed 30 yards to Ed Jackson, who raced 25 yards for the second tally. A fourth period Chester score was offset when Kenny Vaughan raced 30 yards for our last tally. GLEN ALLEN 21—CHESTER 7 “Rain, rain, go away” was the theme of our game with Manchester, played in the City Stadium. The Panthers waded through rain and mud to soundly trounce the Lancers 40-0. This was supposed to be a toss-up but the Panthers went right to work and rolled up 20 points in the first period. Two scores in the second period and another “Trice catch” in the third finished out the scoring. The whole Glen Allen squad participated in this rain battle and they took to the water like ducks. GLEN ALLEN 27—HIGHLAND SPRINGS 0 November 19! This is a red letter day in our memories. Playing the football classic of Henrico County, Glen Allen turned on the steam to defeat its arch rival, Highland Springs. This important victory not only assured the Panthers of the District II honors but also avenged the 1947 loss to the Springers. Played before 6000 fans in the City Stadium the Panthers showed that they were ready for this one by recovering a Springer fumble on the opening kick off and marching to a score in six plays. Tinsley went 13 yards through the middle for the score and added the point.

FOOTBALL GLEN ALLEN 13—JAMES MONROE 6 In the initial contest of the season the Panthers, previously rated two touchdown underdogs against the strong James Monroe High School team from Fred- ericksburg, stole some of the Yellow Jackets thunder and came up with a hard earned 13-6 victory. Behind the peerless blocking of the entire Glen Allen line, Tinsley and Page raced for two touchdowns and enough to win. GLEN ALLEN 18—CULPEPER 7 The next week end our boys traveled to Culpeper with all the desire and determination they had shown on the previous Friday. Rated as underdogs again, the Panthers proved that they did not like this role and trounced the Blue Devils 18 to 7. Co-Captain Tinsley, Ted Page and Ed Jackson scored for the Panthers. Co-Captain Luk- hard, Sherwood Frostick and Bill Thacker were the line standouts. GLEN ALLEN 36—ASHLAND 2 The Panthers, on the warpath once more, again served notice that they would be heard from in District II competition by walloping Henry Clay at Ashland. The Glen Allen tallies were made by ‘Tinsley, who garnered two touchdowns, Ted Page, John Gilbert and Howard Trice. Trice made a sensational catch on a pass from Brandmahl; this play was the feature of the contest. Tinsley added 4 points from placement to round out the scoring. The entire line played well and held Ashland to a net gain of 45 yards rushing and passing.

FOOTBALL The Panthers did not score again until the third period but they kept the Springer attack completely bottled up as Fulton, Gilbert, Frostick, Billy Thacker, Jackson, Duke Thacker, and Faber stopped every threat of the Highland Springs team. In the third period Glen Allen went 65 yards for tally number 2, This was made when Page went 10 yards on a naked play around Springers right flank. Tinsley again converted. The fourth period saw the Panthers rack up two more tallies. Kenny Vaughan went 25 yards on a hand-off and the scoring was completed when the Panthers went 80 yards to rack up score number 4, A pass from Page to Boss covered: 27 yards and wrote finis to the scoring and also to the Springers. GLEN ALLEN 69—VARINA 0 Glen Allen wound up its schedule by defeating Varina at Glen Allen on Thanksgiving morning. This victory brought the District II championship to Glen Allen for the first time. It also won for the school the right to play Suffolk for the Eastern Regional title. Every member of the squad played in this contest and the following boys contributed to the scoring: Brandmahl, Tinsley, Page, J. Gilbert, Failing, Christoph, Trice, Dalton, Boss, L. Gilbert, and Fitzgerald. GLEN ALLEN 19—SUFFOLK 0 The 1948 football season was brought to an auspicious close when the Panthers defeated the Red Raiders from Suffolk. This victory gave to Glen Allen the Eastern Regional Title for 1948. The game was played in a sea of mud at the City Stadium and once again the Panthers proved that they were good mudders. The whole team performed well as Tinsley, Page and Boss scored three touchdowns to bring this all important victory to Glen Allen. With that game an outstanding season came to a close and the school is proud of its team and its coaches. They are real champions.
