Touchdown

The Mount Clemens Bathers
scored on their seventh play
against Hazel Park Friday but
fell part defensively to allow the
Red and White 10 make ID first
downs and win Is TO 6.
Captain Clink Schroeder play
ing his usual strong defensive
game turned in the only bright
offensive act of the game when
he caught a pass from Jack An
derson on the Hazel Park 20
yard line, eluded two tacklers
and scored standing up.
From here on in the Red and
Gray was never in the game and
the Bathers made only four
first downs in the entire game.
The chief difficulty with the
Red and Gray was their unWil-
llngneSs to stay on the ground
although they scored their only
tally on an aerial, Hazel Park S
defense frightened and they in
tcrcepted many Of the Mount
Clemens heaveS.
SCHROEDER SCORES
Mount Clemens struck fast
early in the game and it looked
to the local fans like it might
be an old-time BatherS run
away. Schroeder crossed the
double stripe but Emmett Gala
gher's kick was a hit to the
right.
The Bathers kicked off and
Hazel Park began a drive. Aft
er registering a total of SIX
first downs, Eric Read tailed
but the I'd was called back and
Hazel Park was penallzed fol-
being offside.
The Red and Gray, however,
did not recognize good thing
and on the next play George
Boris broke around left end on
a reverse and scored standing
up. Herman Wolters, drop kick
err eXtraordinaire, ran into the
game but his kick was DETECTED
by a hard charging Mount Glen
ems line.
After a series of punts, Mount
Clemens got into hot water
when they fumbled on their own
25 yard line. Hazel Park pushed
the ball to the 11-yard line and
VOTERS was rushed into the
game.
Standing on his own 20 VOL
tiers took the ball and drop-kick-
ed squarely between the up
rights to give Hazel Park a 9 to
6 lead. The dropkick has not
been used very much in recent
years and his kick was hailed
by everyone on the sldellnes.
Although Hazel Park domi-
mated the play in the second half
they were unable to penetrate
the Mount Clemens goal line
and it was not until the fourth
period that an old sleeper play
did the trick.
SLEEPER PLAY WORKS
The Hazel Park teams lined
up to the side of the ball on the
80 yard line and the cente r
threw the ball to Capt. Bud
Beard who marched so yards
for the score. The kick was no
good and Hazel Park lead IS TO
6.
Emmett Gallagher, Yves Car
los and Jack Anderson's passing
were the main offensive threats
for the Bathers. On the defense
the work Of Don Gallagher,
Capt. Clink Schroeder shone out.
Johnny Rondo who blocked one
OF the Hazel Parks try for an
extra point, Fred Shaw at end
and Tackle Ralph Rosso also did
a good job for the Red and Gray.
The game was the last one for
the Bathers and ends one Of the
worst seasons for the local team.
They lost seven games and won
one from Cranbrook.
However despite their dismal
record many of the players are
undergraduates and a good team
is being groomed for next year
and the following years. Many
of this years varsity will be
back next year and the Bathers
should be one Of the states best
when next season rolls around.
