The Pirates played, in the opinion of some, their best game ever. Both teams had long drives throughout the game but cou1dn't score. In the 4th quarter, the Pirate defense held the Dons within the T,R. one foot line for four straight downs. After the goal line stand, the Bucs gained control of the ball but a 3rd downinterception put the Dons in control once more. With a minute and 33 seconds to go, Donelson passed for the T.D. The 7-O loss was a bitter pill for a hard-working football team.

The bal- anced Pirate offense showed its strength ongge more, while the defense led by Locke and Reeves, held the Yankees to only twelve points. A pass and a short run in the first quarter put the Bucs ahead. Three more runs and another pass play late in the game gave the Bucs their fifth league win, 38-12. STRATFORD SLIPS BY BUCS Two Rivers, with a commendable record of six wins to only one loss, was fired-up to meet its oldest rival. Stratford.

The Bucs came back strong in the third and charged for 6 but the point-after attempt failed. In the fourth quarter, neither team could score so the Bucs fell to their AAAA rival 13-12.
