TROOPS punting-he averaged
43.2 on each kick-spelled the
difference here Frida.' afternoon
as Romeo won its second game
OF the season, defeating Keego
Harbor, 81.
The Peachmen scored their
lone touchdown in the second
quarter as they busted off the
old sleeper play for a pass from
Throop to w. Lottery, Negro
right halfback. Keego Harbor
got its two points as a gift when
Throop ran the ball back into
the end zone.
OPEN WITH FIRST DOWN
Electing to receive, Keego
Harbor opened the game with a
Is yard completed pass for a
first down on the first place.
From then on, the lake boys
were stymied by TROOPS long
kicking. Although they marked
nine first downs to three for
Romeo, they simply couldn't
overcome the punting advantage,
their own kicker averaging only
Dc yards. .
Two IF Coach Dan Barnabo's
best boys were absent from the
lineup because of sickness and
injuries. EUGENE Marchewitz,
tackle was out suffering from
an illness, while Mack Quick
who got in for a few minutes,
was handicapped by bad knee.
RUN OF FOURTH DOWN
Romeo's first scoring threat
came in the middle of the first
quarter hen the Peachmen
chose to run for five yards on
the fourth down from center
field. They made good. as Throop
cracked left tackle. A pass to
left end Bowerman who lateral
ed to L. Lottery, cousin of Will

Bile and near tumble stopped the
march.
ROmeO's score came when
after L. Lottery had made q
20-yard runback of q punt to
Keeg0 Harbor's 30, racing down
the east sidelines. At the same
time, Wilbur faded to the fal
west side Of the field for q
sleeper play. As the ball wa.
snapped, he scampered down the
field, caught TROOPS long, high
pass on the 10 and could. have
walked across. TROOPS kick fol-
the extra point was blocked.
Opening the second half, Kee-
60 Harbor cracked the whip
racking up three first downs in
row only to be halted when
L. Lottery intercepted a pass or
his own 20 and carried it back
ID yards.
From there on in, the game
was see-saw b title, with
TROOPS booming punts spelling

two teams until the middle OF
the last half when Throop fun
bled on his own thirty. With
