zEbRAS VICTORS
over WARREN BY
SCORE "A TO 0
Defense Work of Pine Bluff
Best Of Season, Easily
Holding Warren Safe.

Pine Bluff yesterday added another
to its unbroken string of victories. at
football this season, by defeating
Warren, at Warren, in hard fought
contest, by "a to 0.
The boys returned home late last
night, in good condition, despite the
hard work of the afternoon. Coach
Bassett did not return with them, go
ing from Warren to Dermott for
visit with relatives and friends today
and tonight He will be home tomor-
row morning.
Pine Bluff had several opportunities
to get the ball over the Warren line,
which she. lost because of lack OF
punch" Her two tOuchdowns, fol-
lowed by goals in each case, were sui
ficient, however, because of the excel
lent defensive work of the Zebras.
Only twice was the Pine Bluff goal
in danger, once early in the first
quarter, and again in the last quarter,
but each time the line held firmly. and
Pine Bluff punted out of danger.
At the start, Warren kicked off to
Pine Bluffs 20-yard line, but lost the
ball on downs. Gould fumbled, and
after -bucking the center of the line,
by Green and Tracy, Green attempted
an end run, but lost the ball on Pine
Bluffs 15-yard line, where the ball
was kicked out of danger.
In the last quarter, Tracy inter-
copied forward pass and succeeded in
reaching the Pine Bluff 15-yard line,
,but again Pine Bluff obtained the ball
which was once more kicked out OF
danger. At no other period was there
a threat of score against Pine Bluff.
Tracy and Green were the stars for
Warren. Mcintyre, Jones and Sor-
rell's led in Pine Bluffs defense. Will
sons passing was better than it has
been this season. Perdue and Gould
bucked the Warren line in fine style,
while Jones and Quinn received passes
eXcellently. There were several bone
head plays by both teams, but on the
whole the game was fast and snappy,
perhaps because there was tinge Of
crispness in the air.
Pine Bluff scored in the second quar-
{ ter, on pass to Jones, from the 20
yard line, and run over an open field
by Perdue, alternating with Gould and
Wilson. Wilson carried the ball over,
and Henslee kicked the goal. The sec
ond score came at the beginning of the
second half. Pine Bluff moving almost
without hesitation thru and across the
field. for the touchdown and Quinn
kicking the goal.
