D. Bell Raiders the edge over the 10 point underdog Trinity Trojans in the final game of the season and the second against the rivals in the short history of Trinity High. It was a spectators' game and very intense Trinity opened up with a 68 yard drive, in 9 plays, with McKnight scoring three yards out. The PAT attempt failed. At the end of the first quarter Trinity 6-0. BelI's offense was completely bogged down by the Trinity defense until part of the way through the second quarter when Bell finally formed a 56 yard drive for the TD that was the result of a fumble. The PAT gave Bell the 7-6 lead. Trinity received the kick on their own 22 yard line and one play later again they fumbled. A pass and a run later they upped their lead for halftime, 13-6. ln the third quarter Trinity fought back with a fumble re- covery on the 7 yard line by Bundren. Three plays later Threatt performed a beautiful option with a pitchout to McKnight who crossed the flags. The extra point boot was blocked and with desperation the Trojans couIdn't stop the ball in the end zone so they had to settle for a 2 point safety and obtained the 14-13 lead into the fourth quarter. Trinity couIdn't move the ball in the last period and Bell, on a roll-out, scored with a pass as the Trinity defenders con- verged unsuccessfully on the Raider quarterback. The Raiders left the field with a 19-14 win, and the Trojans stepped off disappointed but not ashamed. JIM CROW JERRY LEE Defensive Back Linebacker ws., Q.,
