Loulsburg scored with 1;39 minutes remaining in the first quarter when quarterback Jimmy Geddie took the ball on his "own 18 and ran it* to' the Oxford 35 yard line. A pass from Geddie to end Terry Nash moved the ball to the Oxford one from where Geddie scored on a quarterback sneak. The attempted run on the point af ter failed and the Bulldogs led, 6-0. Penalties played an important part in the game with Louis-? burg being penalized, by unof ficial count, a total of 125 yards, with 15 yards being declined by Oxford. The Red Devils Vere charged with 95 yards. * With 10:21 remaining in the second quarter, Loulsbujrg kicked to the Orphanage 33 yard ^line..? On the first play from scrimmage, Richard Gor ton, 17ft pound senior halfback of Oxford, galloped? 67 >yards for the touchdown. The kick for the extra point was good, but a penalty nullified it; and on the second try the Red Dev ils failed, tying the score at 6-6. ? The .second Oxford score came ' with 52 seconds left In the first half, when Oxford gained a Xirst. and ten on the Loulsburg 38 yard line. After quarterback Barry Cooke lost ^a yard for the Red Devils, he passed on second down to half back Pete Huff, who raced all alone into the end zone for the second Orphanage tally and what proved *to be the ball game. The kick by Cooke for the .extra point was good and the Orphanage led, 13-6. Loulsburg threatened late in the game when, with 2:33 re maining, Terry js'ash recov ered an OxfoAl flimbUe on the Loulsburg forty-yard line. The break was shortlived as the Rqd Devils held. With 28 sec onds left In the game, Nash agfeln recovered an Orphanage fumble on the Oxford 45 yard line. A pass from Geddie to y Crow" Patterson was dropped and Ox ford's Jimmy Shannon picked the ball up and raced into the end zone for what appeared to be another 6xford tally. A penalty, however, nullified the run as the game ended. The win virtually assured Ox ford of another championship in the conference. The Or phanage now holds a 4-0 con ference record with Spring Hope, Nashville and Whitley remaining on their schedule.

The Board has acted courageously in at tempting to comply with the law. I cannot speak for them. jT only work for the Board, but I catn say that every member is -honest and ha* acted in good faith." Superintendent Smith told of the 61 applicants, including Freedom of Choice requests, and told that all those who made proper application were grant ed. He told the officer that ten Negro students had been assigned to previously white schools. The complaint concerned the tact that the two reasons for granting lateral transfers were not contained In the Plan of Compliance. At the time the plan, was submitted, the only criteria was the one used by the Board for the past several years, moving Into a new atten dance area. In a later guide line from Washington, the "study" criteria was added. Letters were sent to all par ents informing them that they could obtain such Information from their principals or at the Board of Education Office. The complainants claim they did not receive the Information and are, therefore, entitled to be granted their requests. In answer to this Fuller told the hearing officer, "The Board unless a tie should occur. All other conference teams have losses. Frankllnton has lost two; Nashville, 2; Spring Hope, 1; Whitley, 2; and Ben venue holds two losses. ?fhe Orphanage Jayvee team defeated the Loulsburg Jay vee's. here last Friday after noon, 28-0.
