KENNETT 7 - SIKESTON I2 KENYETT 13 - POPLAR BLUFF 45 The Indians traveled to the Bluff City and looked very bad in absorbing their first defeat of the season from the big, powerful Mules who were also unbeaten. It seemed the Indians could do nothing right as Mule backs Jerry Hinchey and Bill Piper ran wild in scoring six touchdowns between them. The only bright spots for the tribe were the touchdowns by Quarterback Gary Parr and Fullback Don Darden. A caravan made up of more than 100 cars followed the Indians to Poplar Bluff in hope of victory, only to witness this macabre spectable. Back home after the Poplar Bluff disaster, only to meet a squad that was reputedly as good as the Mules, the Indians gave a much better account of themselves. After holding the Bulldogs to a scoreless first quarter, the tribe's goal line was finally crossed in the second period and the half ended with Sikeston leading 6-O. In the third quarter, after a long sustained drive, Quarterback Parr crossed the Sikeston goal line. Kent Sexton, who had run so well during the scoring drive, kicked the extra point, even after being set back five yards for the team's being off sides. With seven minutes remaining in the game, the Bulldogs pushed over the last score. A valiant Indian drive late in the game was stopped deep in the Sikeston territory with a pass interception. KENNETT 7 - PORTAGEVILLE O The Indians traveled to Portageville for their second non-conference engagement. During the first half, the single-wing running home team moved the ball with conspicuous ease through the bigger Indians' defenses, while the Tribe offense didn't do too well. The Indians kept the Bulldogs from scoring and the score at the end of the first half was O-0. When the second half started, the Redmen showed the large crowd who was boss. The Bulldogs made only 9 yards through the staunch Tribe's defense during the third and fourth periods. The Indian offense then started to move and Sexton scored a touchdown and an extra point. third non-conference game. The flu-ridden Indians made the trip to Dexter minus eleven sick boys, including all the ends. The score at half time was as usual O 0 but again as usual the Indians came back in the second half to win Iohn Robinson scored one TD and Kent Sexton one TD and kicked the extra points to take care of the Tribe scoring Bob Paine and Don Darden filled in admirably at ends for the weakened Indians as tney took their

KLENNETT 7 - CAPE CENTRAL 0 The Indians had another close call, but finally began to click in the second half with a passing attack that had been very conspicuously absent until this game. A Parr to Robinson aerial netted the touchdown and Sexton kicked the extra point. A large homecoming crowd was very worried until the Tribe scored. The game was closely contested for the most part with the underdog Tigers holding their own for the biggest part of the game. KENNETT Z7 -JACKSON 7 In this conference game, played at Jackson, the Indians played very poor football during the first half, but came back strong in the second half to engulf the rival tribe. The score at half time was 0-O. Kennett's scoring was done by John Robinson K2 TD'sl, Don Darden fl TD and 2 extra pointsl, and Ierry Presley fl TDD. The Indians moved the ball almost at will, even during the first half when they were stopped more by fumbles and penalties than by the inept Jackson defenses. The lone Jackson tally was registered in the last quarter when their much vaunted multiple offense finally pierced the rough Tribe defense. KENNETT 7 I-LAYTI 0 Playing another rival tribe the Indians from Pemiscot County, the local Tribe had a very tough time with the previously unbeaten eleven from Hayti. There was no score at half with Hayti having a little edge in the first periods. The lone score of the game came early in the fourth period when John Robinson ran back a punt 70 yards for the score Old Reliable Sexton booted the extra point. The Kennett defense performed ' commendaoly during the entire contest stopping the rival Indians inside the 20 yard I KENNETT 12 - CARUTHIZRSVILLE O In the fiercest of all rivalries, the Turkey Day game, the Indians again came cut on top. The Indians scored the first time they got their hands on the ball, with a pass from Parr to Robinson. There was no scoring in the second or third quarters, due to the ankle-deep mud and water. The Tribe's final touchdown came in the fourth period when Jerry Presley skirted left end for the TD. The Indians' defense again did very well, hold- ing the Tigers to 28 yards rushing for the entire game. The Tribe's big line was the de- ciding factor as it completely overpowered the smaller tigers.
