FIGHT FOR DEAR ST. PAUL'S in a row for the Eagles. and hopes for a winning season began to grow. St. Paul's O-Turkey Creek 39 A powerful Turkey Creek football machine exploded for unexpectedly easy victory over the previously unbeaten Eagles of St. Paul's. The Eagles couldn't seem to get started, as Turkey Creek completely bottled up their offense all night long. This defeat cast a shadow over the hopes for St. Paul's to have the first champion- ship team in the school's history. Donald Luger H1 I . of b -A. , NK James Guswiler St. Pauls 6-Largo 20 CDespite the fact that St. Paul's played better ball than Largo, the Eagles lost the game on pass interceptions.l Largo's thundering Packers converted two intercepted passes into touchdowns to turn back an aroused band of St. Paul's Fighting Eagles. St. Paul's 8 first downs to Largo's 7 proved the line brand of ball that was played. Even though St. Paul's dominated the statistics, the breaks of the game went entirely to the visitors. Standouts for the game were Co-captains Don Luger and Jim lVlcCune, also Bill Swager. However Luger and Swager had no chance to prove their prowess as both were out for the rest of the season. Swager received a wrenched knee late in the game, and Luger broke part of his back the following Monday in Practice. William Goodall LET GO! I HAVE TO MAKE THIS TOUCHDOWN
