RAMS GOT REVENGE, TROMPED l TIGERS 43-12 Revenge sparked Richfield to a victory over the Waco Tigers who had spoiled Richfieldls Homecoming in 1964. Richfield's first score came during the first quarter when Chris Sermas charged over after Dickie Wooten, Roy Smith, and Jeff Kearney moved the ball to the one. Thomas Vernet- tils kick put Richfield ahead 7-0. A safety put Richfield ahead 9-0. Be- fore long Sermas did it again, and the half time score stood 15-0. A Wooten-to-Kearney pass added 6 more to Richfield's side, and Wooten connected with Joe Gar- land to bring the third period score to 23-0. Waco got into the act and tallied 6 points during the fourth quarter. The Rams 'grubbed-it-in by scoring again with only 30 sec- onds left to play. Ram standouts included Larry Bracco, Kent Starr, James Nelson, Ed Jarrett, Jerry Chatham, and Bob Mosley, who helped bring home a 30-6 victory and the city champion- ship.

Both teams played good defensive ball during the first period and swapped punts until the quarter was nearly over. Cleburne finally broke away and scored its winning touch- down 5 minutes into the second quarter. Richfield got off one good drive, but half time activities be- gan with no change in the score. The second half was no brighter for the Rams. Although they made several triesg penalties, interceptions, and uncompleted passes kept them from cashing in their chances. Cle- burne was able to do little better. A strong defense featuring James Nelson, Jeff Kearney, Larry Bracco, Gary Freeman, Boyd Hadaway, and Hays Moore kept the Jackets from scoring again. Richfieldis last at- tempt ended in an interception with 29 seconds showing on the clock, and Cleburne took over to watch the final seconds tick away.
