Eliz- abefh's +igh+ defense nearly proved fafal for fhe varsify for- wards, buf fhe diligenf hours of pracfice paid off in fhe final vicfory. Bolsfered by fhe success of fheir firsf a'H'emp+, Gremlins confidenfly faced fhe San Francisco Bulldogs. ln a fasf mov- ing game wifh many fies, fhe oufcome was uncerfain unfil fhe final momenfs, when a series of skillfully-execufed plays placed fhe Bulldogs in fronf and gave fhem fhe game.
