previous exhibitions. Morris had
a fine offensive that clicked often
the fortunes Of war changed often
enough to make it interesting, and
Sank Centres defensive looked far
superior to it's previous efforts.
Late in the fourth quarter the loo
ais turned Morris back twice from
within the 20 yard line. It was
the same team who early in the
first quarter had netted 60 yards
In a sustained drive to score.
But here again breaks and defen-
sive were not enough. With vir-
tually no ground game to back
them up, get them out of the whole
they turned to the desperation OF
passing virtually on their own goal
line. And the inevitable happened
Morris intercepted.
And the concourse is proof
that a good defensive in foot
ball Is not enough. And the
coach's dictum that the best de-
Tense is a good offense was
never more in evidence.
Morris had started that late
fourth quarter drive on Sank
Centres 80. Twice she had
bored to inside the 20. Twice
she was turned back. II
a running attack could have
been launched to precede q punt
out, things might have been
different. As It was when
Houston intercepted that last
pass, he stood on the 20. On
the exchange of plays Morris
even coupled with two Sank
Centre punts-had gained a
total of ten yards!
Through it all it reminded me
Of the nursery rhyme. I'll huff
and I'll puff and I'll blow your
house down. Morris speaking. They
were the big bad wolves. In spite
of latent power, the brilliant pass
ing of Nelson, they didn't convert
as often as they should have.
But they darn near blew the roof
off the heads of the local boys.
