He had just gotten inside the box when the man pushed him. After that, the guysjustshut them down. I told them that if High Point was going to score, then they would have to score through eleven men. So we fell back and played defense for the rest of the match. The guys held them off for thirty-three minutes straight. Any time that you can play defense and keep the ball out of your net for thirty three minutes, you’ve played great soccer, and that shows that you can play with any body.” The statistics displayed the defensive play demonstrated by both teams on the field.

In an appeal to the public, Dr. Johnston set a $7 million goal, "to meet this urgent need.” Explaining that the CARE package has expanded over the years to include self-help devel opment and medical aid through CARE/MEDICO, he stressed that “giving food to victims of poverty and disease remains our major task.” Pointing out how CARE stretches its aid,^ Dr. Johnston said, “As little as $5 provides 600 nutritious biscuits to school children. Only $15 supplies a nourishing bowl of porridge for 300 school children for a week, and often this supplemental food makes a significant dif ference in a child’s health and survival as well as learning ability.” Most of the food will go to needy children at schools, hos pitals, health clinics, day care centers, and other institutions, many of which CARE helped communities build.
