Don't talk back! Use your cooplv I'l1 call 'em1 On September 29, we took on our traditional enemy, Escanaba. The first half was all St. joe's. By splendid teamwork, and good blocking, the squad scored 12 points in the first half and held them scoreless. It was a different story the second half. A rejuvenated Orange and Black team, with strong off-tackle smashes and a deceitful passing attack, scored 21 points to beat us 21-12. Page Nincljv-Ona
