Lee of Tyler. The game started with a 77 yard run by Boyd Hadaway and an ex- tra 'point kick by Thomas Vernetti to put the Rams ahead 7-0. Rich- fieldls second touchdown came at the hands of Bob Mosley after a near-interception by two Tyler de- fenders. A goal line stand by Ram defenders Jerry Keith, Kent Starr, Jim Devaney, and Hays Moore de- layed Tyler's scoring until the sec- ond half. During the third period the Rams scored again to bring their lead to 20-0. The fourth quarter saw Tyler get its first TD following a fumbled punt by the Rams. Hays Moore, with help from Jeff Kearney, upset the Rebels again with a beautiful 25 yard run boosting the score to 27-6. A short punt set up Lee's other score, and shortly afterwards the final whistle blew with the score- board reading: Rams 27, Tyler 12. I82 Chip Voltz f16J dazzled rebels with slippery tactics.

Joe Garland Hays Moore 25 Back 32 Back Austin Johnstonis aerial attacks al- most proved fatal to Richfield, but a stingy Ram defense helped stamp out a 20-12 victory before a crowd of 5,000 fans at Austin's House Park. Richfield didn't score until the second half when a pass from Dickie Wooten to Bob Mosley put Waco on the scoreboard. The Rams dom- inated the statistics as they were able to limit Johnston to only one first down. Johnstorfs Rams took to the air in the second half with a deadly 80 yard drive in five plays. The Rams retaliated and marched back 76 yards, Chris Sermas scored and, with a two-point conversion added, the score stood 20-6. Next Joe Garland intercepted a Johnston pass, but the other Rams recovered a Waco fumble and scored. However, the pass for extra points failed. Richfield once again proved to Johnston who was the better of the Rams. I8l

The Rams, favored to win, scored the first touchdown on their second possession of the game on tremen- dous drives by Hays Moore. Al- though Richfield kept Arlingtonis drives under control, the half time score was 7-7. Richfield's defense fell apart as ,lacket passing maneuvers left the Rams wide open during the second half. Arlington socked the Rams with two touchdowns to light up their side of scoreboard with a 21-7 lead. Richfield attempted two counter-of- fensive attacks. The first march was enough to raise the score to 21-15, -but the second one failed to stop an Arlington victory. Defensive standouts were .leff Kearney and Jerry Keith. Kearney caught six of Wootenis passes for 91 of the 124 yards gained in pass- ing attacks. RAMS FAILED TO SCALE HEIGHTS tackle of an Arlington Jacket. W Greg Ogden '-43 Back at i A tp y .
