BATTLE OF MUSIC 1
SATURDAY, DECEMBER 2, 1950
Stuqrt came back with a drive
of their own which took them to
the Tigers’ 20, and from there the
Stuart quarterback passed to Joe
Thompson for a touchdown. The
try for the extra point was block
ed and at the end of the first
quarter Douglas was leading by
one point,
, Tbs second quarter started with
Douglas receiving. Long runs by
Scott and Ralph Welters accqunt
ed for the score with Scott scor
ing. The try for the point was
wide. After a series of downs by
.both teams the half ended.
The second half opened with
the Tigers receiving. After two IS
yard penalties were called against
them, Charles Clarke went to
work. He first threw a 20-yard
pass to Welters who was stopped
at the 20. Another pass to Welters
netted a touchdown. The extra
point was no good.
The fourth quarter found Stuart
driving deep into the Tigers ter
ritory, but sloppy ball handling
by Stuart’s backs enabled Doug
lass to recover a fumble. The first
play from scrimmage found Wil
liams driving to the 50 and from
there Williams streaked through
the middle for paydirt. The try
for the extra point was blocked.
Douglas 25, Stuart 6.
Stuart fought gamely through
out the melee, but the hungry
Tigers could not be denied their
victory.
