Casey kicked four OF the seven goals
attempted.
Probably the outstanding feature of
the game was Ted Heyden' $ - yard
run for a touchdown in the opening
quarter. 1t was The Dalles' bail on
the Pendleton 25 yard line and as the
ball was snapped into play it was
fumbled. Heyden caught it on the

with the whole team Of The Dalles in
