Traveling to Bucksport, Orono once again pushed its way into the win column, defeating a hard-charging Bucksport eleven 18-O. Two long passes from Parlin to Busching and a line buck by Art gave the Riots their first score. The second period the Riots and Bucks ex- changed the ball via fumbles with Orono falling on a fumble in the Bucksport end zone for the second Riot touchdown. A pass inter- ception early in the second half paved the way to the third T. D. After a hard 62 yard drive, Parlin dashed off tackle 17 yards out for the score. No extra points were scored by the Riots. Standouts on offense and defense were Parlin, Dall, Beyer, I..eClair, I.,aPointe, and Busching. BUCKSPDRI AND IlIllIKlANIl Orono stepped out of Single F to take on the Rockland High Tigers after Hampden had forfeited the game scheduled for the day. Rockland drew the first blood as they quickly moved the ball to the Orono two before Alex scored. Parlin returned the kickoff to the Rockland 26 be- fore being hauled down from behind. Having recovered a fumble on the goal line, the Tiger's Deshon attempted to punt out of danger and was smothered in the end zone for the Riots first 2 points. Early in the second period Witter recovered a fumble on the Tiger Z5 and Parlin scored through center. ln the final period, Orono began to pour it on as Busching scored on a pass from Parlin, Next, Orono tackle, Ray Baker, stole the ball from Alex and scored standing up from 2.0 yards out. Parlin set up the next score by racing 30 yards to the 5. Treadwell then bucked over for the tally.

ROW 1: T. Gibbs, W. Busching, R. Witter, D. Adams, F. Beyer. ROW 2: R. St Louis, J. Dall. J. Abbott, D. Trefethen, R. Brockway, Mr. White. IRACK H153 In the spring of 1953, Coach White called out his track candidates. By working hard and with the able assistance of Coach White and Mr. Beyer, the boys developed several individual stars and were strong in all events except the mile. In the first meet of the year, the Riot thinclads easily trounced Old Town showing superior form in all field events. Next they handily beat both Brewer and Old Town in a triangular meet at the Uni- versity of Maine. Ellsworth was next on the list and provided a tune up for the P, V, C, , with the Riots again dominating both track and field. The next week Orono won their second triumph in two years in the P, V, C, meet, everyone doing exceptional jobs. Lin Hachey set a new record in the shot put while Bill Busching was tying the one in the 440 yard dash. The boys then journeyed to Colby college to participate in the State Meet. Here the boys gave good account of themselves, coming in a strong second to Wells, who had won the three previous years. In this meet Hachey won the shot put, tied for second in the pole vault, and won the discus, followed closely by Witter in second and Gibbs in fifth to continue their domination in this event. Bill Busching took a first in the 440 to remain unbeaten in this event, second in the javelin, and fourth in the 880. Frank Beyer came through with a third in the 180 yard low hurdles, fourth in the 120 yard high hurdled, and a fifth in the broad jump. Ervin Morrison copped a second place in the broad jump and a fourth in the 100 yard dash. Return- ing lettermen are: Tom Gibbs, Dick Witter, Dave Adams, Frank Beyer, Bill Busching, Ron St. Louis, John Dall, and Jim Abbott. 48
