BRAWLEY WILDCATS Exc OUT WIN
OVER CENTRAL SPARTANS 14-13
Come From Behind Twice To Overcome
Lead Of Local Eleven And Finally Snatch
Victory.

Flashing a passing Aattack in the
second half againstt Which the
Spartans were helpless, the Braw-
ley Wildcats came from behind
twice to snatch victory out of ap-
parent defeat III a game played on
the BraWley high school gridiron
last night. The final score was IA
Is in favor of the BraWleyites and
the score just about tells the story
Of the contest.
/ The Spartans dominated the
first half of the game, scoring q
touchdown in the first period and
threatened the Brawley goal re-
peatedly during the half.
Entering the second half seven
points ahead, the Wildcats got their
passing game funetioning smoothly
and struck pay dirt. Sasakai con-
! verted and the score was tied at Z
all at the end of the third period
The way the boys were playing at
that time it looked as if this TT
might be the final score of the
game.
In the last quarter, however, the
Spartans pushed over another
touchdown and went into the lead
even though the conversion at
tempt went wide of its mark.
Again it looked as If BraWley
We're doomed to defeat. With about
six minutes of the last quarter re-
maining the Wildcats took to the
air again and with we'll executed
heaves by Sasaki the ball was
worked down to first down on the
Spartan one yard stripe from which
point it was carried over for The
tying points. Sasaki again broke
into the valley football hall of fame
when his toe booted the ball over
the uprights with the single point
which gave his team the Well-earn-
ed victory.
BraWley won the toss and elect
ed to kick off. The Spartans re-
ceived and toted the ball up to
their % yard line. Two attempts
at the line netted but two yards
and then Wagner broke through
the line and ealloped to the Braw-
ley 40 yard line before he was
! doWned. The Wildcat line dug in
and stopped two line plays and
then a high Spartan punt was car
ried by the wind back TO their own
At where Brawley took charge oil
the play. Forced to punt the bali
was booted over the Spartan goal
and it was their ball on the 20 yard
stripe.
tumble Opens Way
When Spartan punt was fumb-
led by the BraWley receiver and
recovered by the Spartans on the
BraWley 26 yard line, Central had
its first real opportunity to score
and made good use of the chance
Lambeth advanced the ball two
yards and then Wagner cut
through the line for a 16 yard gain
for first down on the BraWley 8
yard line. Three line plays were
tried and then Wagner plunged
over for the first score of the game
Dilbeck converted and the score
was Spartans, T. Brawley, O.
The remainder of the first quar-
ter and all of the second period
was scoreless but near the end OF
the half the Wildcats indicated
what was to happen in the Sec
end half when they opened up with
their passing game, making two
first downs in row via the air
route following an intercepted
Spartan heave.
Brawley received to open the
second half and took the ball on
their own 81. Wildcat tumble
was recovered by the Spartans on
the Brawley as but they failed to
capitalize on that break. A Spar
| tan punt went outside on the
Brawley II and when two thrusts
at the line failed to gain, the Wild
cats punted. The boot, aided by
, the wind went distance of IS
yarcS over the Spartan goal.
Central took the ball on the &c
yard stripe and on the second
play blocked punt gave the Wild
cats possession of the ball on the
Spartan %. A completed pass
made it first down on the 10 yard
line and then a Spartan five yard
penalty advanced the ball to the
yard line with the down remaining
the same. The Spartans fought
fiercely to prevent a score but the
Wildcats were not to be stopped
