CHAMPS.
A sensational Christian rally in the
final half of the first game of the
(rip to Richmond, with the fJrays, turn
ed defeat into victory and Coach
“Pea Head” Walker's Plue and White
passertf chalked up their tenth victory
of the season.
The siHx tacular Christian nilly was
featured by the entire ChrlHtian tettm
who lived up to their title of cham
pions of the “Little Five.” The last
hnlf rally ended with the “Little Chris,
tians” barely i>ossesr.ing the birge end
of the 27-2R score
The content got und**r way with
i>oth teams struggling for the initlnl
lead, but four minutes of play elapsed
before the Chrlstalns found the las*
ket for the first score of the game:
this being followed by another double
decker before the fJray* could find
themselves. The score see-sawed back
and forth during the entire first i>e-
riod. and at half time the score was
deadlocked at 11 all.
The final and deciding half got un
der way exactly like the first. The
Christian hit their stride, passed, nnd
dribbled around their opponents until
the pistol ended the game; the s^^ore
standing at 27 to 2^ in favor of the
“Mttle Five” champs.

a total that slightly exceeds the half

Its aim $.100,000. The most Important
factor promoting success hasn't l>een

It la by their donations, often at a
sacrifice, that the campaign for funds
