4 esting. Of course Huntingdon is always a hard game for us--that is, until last year. I really' felt sorry for those boys who were trying to play foot- ball. Remember, I said trying. Scoring touchdowns: Simmons ---------- 6 points Cozart--- ---- 7 points Pratt---u ---- 6 points Brooks--- ---- l point Martin, Tennessee--October Bl, 1941 Although the weather was bad and there was some talk of calling the game off, it started about an hour late. Playing in mud and water ankle deep,the Rebels defeated Martin 12-2. Martin scored in the first period of the game when Moseley fumbled the slick ball on a punt. Martin came back, scoring the saf- ety with confidence of winning the ball game, but they were to be sadly disappointed because from then on there was but one team on the field, and that was the McKenzie Rebels. Through mud, slush and rain, the Rebels land- slided Martin in an un-forgettable victory. Scoring touchdowns: Moseley ---------- 6 points Connelly--- ---6 points McKenzie, Tennessee--November 7, l9Ml
