MELVIN BRADLEY Tackle Provisional 1 1 WILLOW SPRINGS The West Plains Zizzers invaded Willow Springs and came back home with a 39-0 victory. The scoring was as follows: Harold Wheeler - one T.D., D. D. Murrell - two T.Dfs John Finley, two T.D.'s, and Virble Stubbs a converted full back - one touch- down. This proved to be a very valuable game because all the Zizzers got to see a lot of action. MOUNTAIN VIEW Playing without the services of five starters the determined Zizzers whipped Mountain View 20-6. Mike Duggan scored first with a 4 yard carry. Floyd Bryson made the second score on a pass from Wheeler and also made the third T.D. on a 6 yard run. JOHN REED DAVID STEPHENS MIKE COCHRAN End-Provisional Back-Provisional End-1 Letter The Zizzers, cold but happy, looked forward to their last game. THAYER The annual last football game proved to be the hardest fought game of the year. Thayer and West Plains both were in the running for conference title. The team winning would be co-champs. The first half was scoreless although both teams were fighting hard for the goal line. The third quarter was also scoreless. Then in the early part of the fourth quarter Floyd Bryson plunged to the 2 yard line only to fumble the ball, which rolled over the goal line and was recovered by Bob Rob- erts. Brown split the standards and the score ended 7-0. That night the boys went home champions, a fine ending to a hard fought season.
