CAPTAIN OF THE DEFENSE JACKIE MILLER SET HIS LINE AGAINST A TOUGH GABLES. Gables went nowhere as Fred Jones and Jim Browning ripped the offensive line and threw ball carrier for a fair loss. Defense Built Brick Wall To Shutout 4, Hold Gables Killian's defense proved itself many times on the field, contributing its share of sweat and guts to another winning sea- son for the Cougars. Sporting four shut- outs and holding opponents to a mere 8.6 points per game, it played hand in hand with the offense to wrap up Killian's third varsity season with an 8-3 record. Captain and star of the team, Jackie Miller, was one of two players to make Killian's first football Hall of Fame. He also made all- city and all-state. Two defensive highlights included holding Gables to 13 points while Killian marched to 19 and a staunchj strong effort to keep South Dade to threel yards as the Cougars romped to 314. An-I other defensive brick wall halted Mays at 67-yards. Three fine feathers for the Cou- gar defensive claws on its way to district. Jack Miller, Frank Walker, Dwight Palmore keyed on a Springs Player and succeeded in forcing a welcomed fumble to give offense a second chance. DENNIS MOSS AND TWO COUGARS HALTED A FINAL HIALEAH SURGE SAVING A TOUCHDOWN. 146

A Cougar Slew a Cavalierg Stepped Into Spotlight, 19-13 Tears reigned down through a brilliantly lit Orange Bowl as the people filed out. There was a victor and there was the conquered, a new king reigned, it was Killian High. She had proven herself against a State and Co-national Champ. Shouts of We're No. 1 rose to new heights as a proud Cougar team left a baffled Gables to ponder their loss. The entire student body was fired up with spirit, and the team was keyed and looking forward to the game with memories of the 1967 meeting to edge them on. Defense was ready and set. A defending Co-national Champ's offense time and again ran into a mass of green jerseys. The Gables pass- ing attack was held to zero yards as the Cava- liers never achieved field position. Quarterback Jim Stoeckel swept the field with scoring passes of 39, 5, and 12. The winning pass was thrown from the 12 to Ken Quaranta on a swing pattern.
