shooting up the tail assembly and
wing. Three times his ship has been
shot up, and on one occasion the can
Opy was shot from over his head. He

cash and decorations of the head. De-
spite injuries and plane badly dam

Cosmos Tie
On Freak I'd
BY JAKE BERsoN

A touchdown in the last 30
seconds, OF the highly freakish
variety, brought Hamtramck High

Keyworth Stadium.
The play that snatChcd a sure
fire victory from the ShamrockS

Gene WujcZyk. Cosmo back. tried
desperation pass in the closing
seconds, which was caught at mid
field by Ray Konen, Hamtramck
quarterback
Several Shamrock tacklers tore
into Konen, and the ball slipped
from his grasp. II was batted
around in the air like a volley ball
before il settled into the arms of
Jim Evans, CoSmo end. Evans
ran few yards and was mt. tie

Hamtramck's other end. caught
the ball foot off the ground and
with clear field, ran 30 yards TO
tie the score. The kick for extra
point was wide.
Catholic Central also scored on
a spectacular play In the third
quarter Don Tighe, Shamrock
back, caught>a punt and Squirmed
and ran 90 yards for a touchdown
Tighe appeared stopped in his
tracks as he caught the ball but
got away He-waS seemingly
trapped twice more but shook off
tacklers both times TO run the last
IS yards unmolestcd. The extra
point try was blocked.
Outside the two scoring plays,
Hamtramck outgained the Sham
rocks. The Cosmos rolled up lSo
yards TO Centrals so, most OF the

Catholic Central lacked a strong
running attack, but the Sham
