Football Sidelights
Entire Season
Is Wrapped Up
In One
By Paul Barwlck
The football game Friday night
against Benvenue was not the" thril
ler that the Ayden-James Kenan
game was, but after the first half
had been played, it looked as thou
gh it would be. -
Just before the first half ended.
Quarterback Jimmy Dixon lofted a
pass to Colon Qultm, who had got
ten loose in the end zone. It was
obvious that the pass would hit its
mark.
As Colon ran under the ball, the
crowd went wild. The ball hit
Colon's hands and his knee hit his
arm, causing the ball to be knocked
loose.
I turned around and looked At
Coach Bill, Taylor, who was shaking
his headi"Paul, "he said "This is
going to' be another one of those
games." v
.Well, as it turned out, the second
half was all James Kenan. The de
li'ioive line dia gigantic Job Iron-'
takine t'.w Benvenue backs. They
simply ctuldn't . run - against &e
Tiger line, v '
After lie game was over, Rivers
Johnson came up and said, "I'm
migbtly glad it wasn't like that
game lest week, "He was certainly
not the only one who had a simitar
thought in mind as the game end
