KENNEWICK DOWNS ATHENA
IL TO 4 IN COLoRFUL GAME

Last Friday, November IL, the
Kennewick Orange Phantonls
turned in one Of the most bril-
liant victories of all Armistice
Day football games by turning,
back that highly touted and unde-
feated Athena eleven by a score
of IL to Z. There was action and
drama from start to finish that
thrilled one of the largest crowds
ever to witness a football game on
the Pasco field.
Athena scored its only touch
down in the opening minutes OF
play when jenkins, star quarter
back, raced IS yards after inter-
cepting one of series of success
full passes which almost crossed
Athena's goal line. The try-for-
point was good.
Kennewick then marched So
yards up to Athena's 10-yard line
where GLASGOW, right end, went the
remaining distance on crisis
cross play. The half ended with
the score Z to 6.
The third quarter was loosely
fought with both teams making
long gains but not being able to
score. During the fourth quarter
Kennewick unleashed IS yard
drive using straight football which
ended with Warnock, sensational
quarterback, going over for the
winning touchdown. The try-for-
point fell short of the receiver.
Brown, who turned in one OF
the finest kicking performances
of the year, kept Athena in their
own territory most of the time.
