MILAN Marceline's winning streak came to a close when the Wildcats of Milan High School outscored the Tigers in a loosely played football game at Milan. The final score was 13-18. Marceline's first T. D. was made when Oliver bulled over from the three yard line: the second was the result of a fifty-five yard punt return by Wiggins. TRENTON The victory was the first over Trenton in six years and a very happy one to the tune of 19 to 12. The first to hit pay dirt was Bobby Couch, who shot off his own right tackle for thirty-six yards and six points. The Tigers tallied again the next time they got their hands on the ball. Couch scored from the fourteen yard line: Wiggins passed to end Axcell for the extra point. The last T. D. cafme when Sports- man intercepted a pass and scampered ninety-five yards to score. CHILLICOTHE The Bengals easily rolled up their largest score of the season by overpowering the Chillicothe Hor- nets, 32 to 0. The scoring was divided among sev- eral players. Sportsman scored the first touchdown: Oliver plunged over for number two: Wiggins passed to Walsworth for the third. A pass intercepted by Wiggins netted the fourth, and Couch racked up the fifth. MACON The Tigers of M. H. S. easily swept by an inept Macon team, 32 to 6. When the dust had cleared away, Wiggins had two touchdowns to his credit. Sportsman, intercepting a pass, quickly tumed it to six points by running thirty-five yards to score. Walsworth scored on a fumble, and Couch also got into the scoring by going over from the eleven yard line. KIRKSVILLE The Marceline gridders met defeat for the second time this season when they went down to defeat at the hands of a powerful Kirksville team, 13 to O. The Tigers held the visiting team to its lowest score of the season and gave them their roughest game in the conference, but were unable to crash the tough defense of the Kirksville team. BROOKFIELD The Marceline Tigers roared to victory over their old rivals, the Brookfield Bulldogs in the annual Armistice Day game and retained the coveted bell. After marching deep into Bulldog territory, Wiggins threw a beautiful pass to Sportsman for six points. For the extra point, Wiggins again cocked his arm back and threw to Don Walsworth. Recovering a fumble near the Brookfield goal line, the Tigers quickly turned it into the winning margin as Wiggins sneaked through the Bulldog line for our second score. In the third quarter Brookfield scored and made the conversion, but then Marceline settled down to business and kept Brookfield from the home goal.
