Mt. Blanchard We opened our 1947 Grid sea- son with a win over Blanchard. Both teams failed to score in the first half, but mid way in the third period Lee Wilkins slammed inside his own right end to score. Neither team scored again and our first league victory was on ice by a close 6-0 count. Arcadia On the following Friday we clashed with Arcadia. Our offensive power was super- ior to Arcadia all the way and behind hard blocking, Lee Wilkins tallied four touchdowns and one conversion for Mt. Cory's total of twen- ty-five points. Arcadia pushed across for two six pointers to round out the scoring. Our sec- ond victory was sewed-up by a 25-12 score. North Baltimore A week later, North Baltimore ioumeyed to Mt. Cory for a non-leaguer. Four plays after the starting whistle, the Tigers had six points. Immediately after this: Mt. Cory's offensive power was exhibited and North Balti- more's defense fell. Wilkins, Warren, Neff, Mar- quart and King shared in the scoring for a total of thirty-one while the Tigers nursed six. Vanlue In this contest we were destined to lose our first game. In a rough affair all the way, the Wildcats drove over for a lone six- pointer and then converted for a total of seven points, while the Green went scoreless. The final score was 7-0. McComb On the following Friday, we traveled to McComb. The Panthers gathered two quick touchdowns in the first half while the Green went scoreless. In the second half, although we completely dominated the play, the best we could manage was one six pointer. This was when Lee Wilkins raced forty-seven yards to tally. At the end, we found ourselves on the short end of a 12-6 score. Arlington The next week we clashed with the hi-powered Arlington eleven. lt was the Red- Devils all the way, exhibiting matchless power. They shoved across six touchdowns and five conversions for a total of 41 points while the Green failed to tally. Van Buren Our next opponent was Van Buren. Although Mt. Cory completely out played them all the way, we managed but one six pointer when Dick Marquart skirted his own left end to score. As the contest ended the Green was on Van Buren's five yard line. We copped by a 6-0 score. Liberty The Eagles journeyed to Mt. Cory, looking for their first win of the season. How- ever, they came to the wrong place as Mt. Cory rolled across four six pointers and two con- versions for 26 points. Liberty earned a brace of touchdowns for 12. Rawson ln the final game of the season, we matched swords with our rival, Rawson. At the half time Rawson led 13-O. Early in the third period Lee Wilkins broke through the Gold forward wall and scampered 53 yards to pay dirt. ln the final minutes, Rawson again tallied to clinch the contest, 19-6.
