Fislier Scores TD
Leggett Wins 6-0
Dale Fisher intercepted a long
aerial thrown by Law Hall’s Don
Wesch and shook loose to score
the lone touchdown in Leggett
Halls’ 6-0 win in a tight defensive
battle in Civilian football yester
day.
Clayton Mohle, outstanding Leg
gett passer, spelled the difference
in the game’s offense. Mohle
gained valuable yardage several
times on a pass or run option. The
Leggett ground game was spear
headed by the fine running of half
back Creighton Maynard.
Mitchell Hall galloped to a 13-6
win over Puryear with most of the
scoring honors going to Clayton
Wilcox who passed for both
Mitchell touchdowns. The first
score came on Wilcox’s short pass
to Junior Haley. The second tally
came when Wilcox hit Bunk Chris
tie who scampered 30 yards to pay
dirt. Samuel Wachel rang up Pur-
year’s lone tally.
Maroon Band eked out a one
penetration win over A-AAA in the
day’s most evenly matched game.
Neither team managed to cross the
double-stripe. Quarterback C. J.
San Filippo directed the Band’s
hard running ground game.
Halfbacks Kenneth George and
Fermen Le Pori did most of the
ground damage for the Band. John
Polk was outstanding for A-AAA,
heading a fine aerial attack.
In Class B Basketball Sqd. 2
edged Sqd. 23, 18-16 and Sqd. 7
dumped A-TC, 22-18.
Jah Means a?rd Bill Hill defeated
Vic P6na and Rene Vela, 6-1, in
