jammed the Stadium saw a bang

tremendous' yardage was bit-terly
for«ht and clrse "until the
end of the third quarter, when a
50-yard drive put Freeport in
front, 13 to '6.
Freeport opene.fi up by kicking
ofT to Lawrence on the 20-yard
line. Lawrence was forced to kick
and the locals took over on the
35. A first tiowh by Ed Andrews
and another by Bob, Kobel ,folbw-ed
by a pass to Bob White spark-ed
a drive that put the ball on
Lawrence's 12-yard line. From
there the Freeport line outcharged
the heavier Lawrence forwards aid
Kobel scored on a power play.
The extra point attempt failed. *
Lawrence received a short kick-off-
and- alter a double lateral
broke. Ben Sidoli went around, end
for 20 yards hi a surprise'play on
the fourth down. A rev:rse play

eight after the kick off and by
bunching six successive first downs
had the ball on Lawrence's one-foot
line as the half ended with
the score a 6 to 6 ,tie.
Freeport got a /;ficare at the start
of the second half when Sidoli, a
"49 ""yards"" only to be stopped by
White on the 14. Lawrence car-ried
the ball all way to the 1!
where Freepoi t pill up such a
string defense, that though th"
visitors had four downs to make it.
they could not get the ball acn ss
the goal line. After regaining tin.1
pigskin, K'jbe.1 returned the ball tJ
mid-field. From there the Rivl
