JAX GAIN 28 TO 13 VICTORY OVER AHOSKIE FRIDAY The Roanoke Rapids Yellow Jackets jumped on the Ahoskie team here last Friday to score 28 points while the visitors were get ting 13 for the final home game of the year. Wright, Fisher, Brown and Byrd each got touchdowns for the Jax. Wright scored two extra points, Byrd one, and Brown one. The Jax, with a new line of Howell and Acree, ends, Craddock and Green, tackles, Wilson and Til lery, guards, and Warrick, center, got off to an early start scoring their first six points in the first quarter. Wright, big charging fullback, was responsible for much of the ground gained by the win ners. Moseley, quarterback, was a consistent ground gainer all after noon, being especially good on the end sweeps and reverse plays. In the first quarter, the shifty little back took the ball on the Ahoskie 15 and sidestepped his way across the goal line, only to be called back because the umpire had blown a quick whistle. ine jax SlUCK LU gxuunu piciyo for the better part of the game. At times they went to the air after being held for short gains on first and second downs. The Ahoskie team struck twice, once in the second quarter and a gain in the fourth. While the team was held to a standstill on the Jax thirty in the second quarter, the Ahoskie quarterback stepped back and flipped a neat pass just across the line to their big left end. The end in turn lateralled the ball with a basketball pass to a back who skirted wide to the left 30 yards for a touchdown. Again in the fourth quarter the same three players ex executed the identical play from the same spot on the field. A pass was good for the extra point on the last score. As the game ended the Jax were on the 12 yard line fighting des perately for the fifth touchdown. The Jax will meet Kinston next Friday and Tarboro the following Friday for the season’s final.
