asa f 1 ir sf- -cv, 551.8 I ,Q Bobby Walker, Tackle Gordon Wakefield, End RIPLEY 20-SOMERVILLE 20 Ripley played a fine game by coming from behind and making tw the last quarter to tie Somerville. RIPLEY 15-BROWNSVILLE 4-4- In this fast game the Tigers were outplayed in every quarter by Tomcats. RIPLEY 27-MILAN 7 Both teams played a good game, but Ripley outmaneuvered Milan. RIPLEY 13-HALLS 24- Ripley probably played their worst game of the season as un- derdog Halls ran over them. THE TINY BOWL GAME HUNTINGTON 18-MUNFORD 13 In the third annual Tiny Bowl classic, the Huntington Mustangs scored a touchdown on a long pass in the last 58 seconds of the game to win over the gallant Munford Black Cats on Irvin Knee field, November 22. At the outset, the stouthearted Black Cats took control of the contest with the highly favored Mus- tangs, who could not muster a first down the first period. The courageous Cats, in control during most of the game, finally yielded to vastly superior reserve power. rg ggwvxreh-Av.. Edric Owen, Back ouchdowns in Buddy Haynes, Back n1.if: if1 f ,,
