Highlighted the Season Paul makes a diving catch for a first down. Ronald runs down an unsuspecting halfback. Then traveling to Loretto, the Bears were out scored 29-7. The only score for them came on a punt return of 65 yds. by Donny Pettus. In the next game the Bears won a hard fought battle from West Limestone by 7- 6. The final game was against 2nd ranked LCHS. The Bears started out and knocked the Tigers off the field the first quarter, but the Tigers bounced back to beat the Bears 22-8. Terry Dean scored the only TD on a 40 yd. run. The Season for the Bears ended at 6-4, the best record in many years. The ball appears to float out of Oneal’s reach. Gang tackling is well demonstrated in this shot. 13
