TENNYSON-26 FREMONT-l 3 The Lancers abandoned their usual emphasis on passing and used every player on the bench as they rolled over Fremont for their third straight win. A thirty-yard kickoff-return by Ken Ruskofsky set up Tennyson for the first touchdown. After a series of downs, Prosser rifled a pass to Pete Franco in the end zone. The first time the Lancers got their hands on the ball in the second half, they charged seventy- one yards down the field, with Ken Ruskofsky finally taking the ball over from the two-yard line. A bad punt by Fremont provided the setting for the Lancers' third score. After a fifteen-yard runback, they took possession on the twenty-five, and Ruskofsky again smashed across for the score. Still another touchdown was made after a sixty- nine-yard drive spearheaded by halfback Guy Beach and fullback Ed Janke. Beach plunged over from the two-yard line for the final score of the game. Nlandle, playing a little tovvard the end of the second quarter and most of the second half, emerged the Lancers' leading ground gainer, with seventy-nine yards in sixteen carries.

TEN NYSON-26 CASTLEMONT-l 3 At the outset this game did not appear to be a Tennyson victory as Castlemont scored the first touchdown. But the Lancers roared back with their best offensive showing of the season to chalk up a nineteen-to-seven halftime lead. Tennyson's first touchdown was set up by a miserable kick by the Knights. The Lancers took over on the Castlemont forty-two, and eight plays later Rodrigues went three yards for the score. After a short series of downs by Castlemont, the Lancers fired a second drive early in the sec- ond quarter as Mandle hit Chuck Horton in the end zone. Castlemont fumbled the next kickoff, and nine plays later Rodrigues again scampered over the goal, after which Jim Clenney booted the extra point to make the score 19-7. Tennyson's offense slowed down in the second half because of substitutions and numerous penal- ties. A five-yard pass from Dayle Mandle to Ken Moulton accounted for the final score. Castlemont scored again in the lastquarter. Then Tennyson's Carl Kant intercepted a pass and ran sixty-five yards for a score which was nullified by a clipping penalty. f Driving up the middle, Rodrigues falls two yards short of a toudwdown in the Washington game.

TEN NYSON-l 3 WASHINGTON-6 Tennyson got a break late in the first quarter when Washington fumbled a punt, which Lancers Harry Crouch and Pete Franco recovered on the Wash- ington twenty-one. A good fake and a roll-out around the right side of the Tennyson line by Dayle Mandle was good for sixteen yards. Two plays later he went over from the two. Washington threatened in the second quarter as Steve Gossard ran a Lancer punt twenty-one yards back to the Tennyson thirty-four. Four plays later Puppie quarterback Sandy Rodarte connected with Gossard for a pass play that would have gone all the way except for a fine defensive maneuver by Franco. A little later Gossard put Washington on the score- board with only three minutes left in the third quar- ter, as he went over from the one. With only a minute and ten seconds to go and the score tied six to six, Carl Kant blocked a punt, which Rodrigues captured and raced into the end zone for the Lancers fifth straight victory.
