TIGERS 35

VANGUARD14

The Tigers played one of their best
defensive games, giving up only 14
points to a determined Vanguard of-
fense. After a series of exchanges in
the first quarter, fullback Vernon
Masters scored the first Tiger TD,
Delvey Dicks good kick made it 7-0.
An interception by Eddie Blair and
runs by Ken Watson, Willie Dortley
and Masters set up the second
touchdown with quarterback Jim
Blanton hitting tight end Ron Jones
in the endzone and a 14-0 lead. Van-
guard's attempt to tie things up
ended when Dicks intercepted their
pass and loped in for the third score.
The half ended with the Tigers
ahead 21-7. The second half opened
with runs by Watson, Masters and
Dortley, a David Harrington inter-
ception, the fourth TD by Watson
and a 28-7 lead. Blanton, with the
running efforts of Harrington, Wat-
son, Masters and Owens, hit Dortley
for the fifth and final score of the
evening and the sure lead of 35-14.
