The quarterback took the ball. He rolled out and pit- ched the ball to the right to Gary McCarley, who bulled his way to the two yard line, It was now third and goal with two yards to go. McCarley took the handoff and dove up the middle for six, making the score 12-0 in the fourth quarter against Dallas Sunset in the homecoming game. When we Hrst started out, L. D. Bell barely got by us, Gary stated, Two weeks after they played the Trinity Tro- jans who were ranked in the state's top ten. The Trojans barely squeaked by the Buffs kicking a field goal in the last seconds of the game winning 12-9. When the Buffs beat Dallas Sunset in a downpour, Gary commented, I thought we were really rolling. Then the next week, an upset of Z2-6 by Burleson dampened many hopes of winning district. To top everything off, Arlington Sam Houston beat the Buffs 67.0. Gary added, We still had a slight chance. We were beating Arlington High 14-13 until Swim. 1' -MJF the last 20 seconds when they kicked a field goal beating us 16-14, Gary remarked.
