Ill nd Western Reserve completes two passes . . . to . . . the wrong team AKRON WEST 14-MANSFIELD 19 With several first stringers coming' back, the fans expected a good team. They were not disap- pointed, when the locals turned in a 19 to 14 win against the Akron West Cowboys, The Cowboys picked up an early lead when they scored midway in the first period. The Tygers retaliated when the Tyger 'field general went over in the second period. The score at the half was seven up. Mansfield went into the lead on another touchdown but a fumble paved the way for the Cowboys' second score. But Hallabrin again crossed into paydirt to end the scoring, five minutes after the last quarter began. MASSILLON 6-MANSFIELD 6 When the Men of Murphy went up against the powerful Massillon eleven, they were given little chance of bringing home a win. Thus when Bob Glass plunged over the goal, all hope of victory for the Bengals disappeared. However, they were revived when Mansfield made three successive first downs and stood on the Massillon four yard line. After three unsuccessful attempts by Hallabrin and Kinkle, Hallabrin on the last down dove over, tying the score. The try for the extra point was inches wide. Hope again rose as Hallabrin trotted from deep into Mansfield territory to the Massillon 20 where he slipped and fell. Before the Tygers could score the whistle blew, ending the ball game. ERIE S'l'R0.NG VINCENT 0 MANSFIELIJ 0 After their tie with the highly touted Massillon gridders the locals were expected to crush Erie Strong Vincent. However, the 'Fans were considerably sur- prised when the Pennsylvania team held the Bengals to a scoreless deadlock. Many times the Tygers were in sight of the promised land, but they lacked sufficient punch to score. Sparky Adams was the mainstay in the Bengal forward wall.
