Drop Final to Gilbert

first down coming up. Here then
drive ended as a pass intended for Ed
Grahek, that was anything but &C
curate, fell into the encircling arms OF
John Biondich, who brought it to the
16.
The second quarter was mainly a
punting duel between Mestnik for Ely
and Halfback Maxi for Gilbert. The
Red and White stopped a Gilbert
threat on the formers 20 when Don
Prola intercepted a lateral. Immedi-
ately after as Mestnik punted and the
ball got away from the safety man,
Ed Grahek recovered it on the visitors
Is.
On the first play Grahek lost Il yards,
a pass was incomplete, Rowe lost a
yord, and a punt went to Gilbert on
the IL as Maxi caught the ball on his
3 instead of letting it go over the goal
line.
Gilbert was all business in the third
period. They marched Go yards to
score, Egger getting away for two long
gains on reverses, with only Rowe be-
tween the runner and 6 points. After
three tries from the Ely 2 Melted no
ground, it was a reverse again by Egger
that accounted for the score.
Early in the final quarter reverse
that finally went for an 8-yard loss
and total of 20 yards in penalties put
Gilbert on its II. The kick that fol-
lowed was downed on the Ely 46, as the
fans called for marker The boys did
their best, but it wasn't quite good
enough.
Rowe went off tackle for II yards,
pass to Ted Grahek on the 8.
Rowe uncorked another heave that
went to Gulbranson of Gilbert, ending
Ely's last chance to score.
