Fayetteville State Broncos
BY CLYDE REID
FAYETTEVILLE — On October
27th the LeJeune Marines defeated
the Fayetteville State "Broncos”
on the latters own field by a score
of 20 to 0. Bob Simmons, whose
bullet like passing helped defeat
Morris College last week did not
click until after the second quar
ter. The LeJeune eleven were held
’corele.ss at the half. Simmons, how
ever did complete two passes in
the second half, one to Swindle and
the other to Boone. This did not
stop the aggresisve Panthers with
the excellent tackling of Earncs
Booker, former 220 1b halfback of
Heaugard Parri.® High and the ex
cellent blocking of Cox. Davis, and
Whaley, which prevented the Bron
cos from clicking.
In the third quarter of the game
the Marines turned to the offensive
and scored three times. Booker led
the attack by running around Tay-
etteville's left end and scored the
game’s first touchdown. Whaley
kicked the extra point successful
ly and the Marines were ahead 7-0
Warhawks line and the attack soon
bogged down on the Tuskegee ;0
yard line. Although the Warhawks
could gain almost at will in the
middle of the field, the alertness of
the Eagles and the kicking of Gal-
orcath. Eagles quarterback, staved
hem off from the goal again until
the fourth quarter wa’ almost over
when Bert Piggot found a hole In
the Eagles line and scored from
mid-field. The game ended with the
Eagles in possession of the ball

he -Aould make no prediction

The Marines then ran the Broncos
into their own end zone. On a re
covered ball kicked by "Pensive”
Burch, Whaley again r.cored for the
Marines. At this point Bob Simmons
was injured and was replaced by
