We are still in the winter Sc

therefore we have started our

On the Gulfport Commodores to-
night at Gulfport after losing a
close, thrill-packed game last Fri
day night to Fairhope, Ala, high
school on the latter's field by n
score of 1913.
The Tigers will try the come
back road in the game tonight
with the Commodores, and hope
to add one to the victory column.
The Tigers took the lead in the
game with the Fairhope Pirates
when a Fairhope punt was re-
turned to the iatter's 35-yard
stripe, followed by a pass which
placed the ball on the Pirate five.
Fulton drove through center for
the score and kicked the extra
point to put the Tigers seven
points in the lead.
Fairhope scored twice in the
third quarter, once on an 85-yard
run following an intercepted pass,
to forge ahead Of the Tigers. One
touchdown scored by the Tigers in
the third quarter, when Rouse
broke through the Pirate line for
Is yards, was called back on a
holding penalty.
However, with only As seconds

Have Easy Time
Commodores Here
Visitors Foil To
Pass Mid-Field
Stripe In Contest
By Mickey Lacewen


The Pascagoula Partners jump
ed into the lead in the Big Eight
conference last Friday night and
remained the only undefeated
eleven in the circuit by a near
embarrassing defeat OF their ira
ditional rivals. The Gulfport
Commodores looked like the
scrubs scrimmaging against the
varsity in suffering a humiliat-
ing $40 defeat on the Pascagoula
field.
The visitors not only failed to
score-they failed to pass the mid
field stripe and managed only two
first downs to nineteen for the
Panthers. Coach Holden's charges
seemed to score at will in the
one-sided contest before a big
crowd that began seeking shelter
from the cold wind before the
final quarter began.
The Panthers scored in every
period while the Gulfport team
hurled their backs at the line
time and time again while the
yards-to-go section of the score
board operated in reverse. First
and" became second and twelve"
and third and fifteen" more than
once during the evening.
Byrd Scores
, Rocky Byrd drew first blood for
the winners on a quarterback
sneak from the Gulfport three
| yard line at the conclusion of a
SO yard drive that averaged better
than eight yards to the try.
Spurgeon Lachaussee, bone
crushing Panther tackle, set up
the next tally when he pounced
on a Commy tumble. Back Bobby
Pittman did the honors when he
snagged one of Byrd's beautiful
passes and stepped over the goal
line.
The score stood 1870 at the
end of the first half with Sylton
| Cole booting the first placement
and his only one for the night.
Levon Ezell and Paul Ryan lug
ged the ball most of the As yards
necessary for the third score with
Ezell hitting pay dirt from the
two to set the score at 1870.
Byrd, field general, passer and
punter for the Panthers, as well
as captain, ranks ace high on pass
defense as well and shared one of
Gulfport's two aerial attempts to
set up the next tally.
Ryan Stars
Ryan, playing his best game of
the season, took over from the
Pascagoula AZ and accounted for
two of three first downs enroute
to pay dirt. He then scampered
over from the 10 yard line.
Ezell. Big Eight leading scorer,
| who can run like a rabbit, got his
| second score and the final tally of
the game in the fourth quarter
| after M. r. Richards had fallen
on a partially blocked Commy
punt.
| Back Buddy Ehrlich got his
long legs working in the drive and
a pass from Frank Branch-in
for Byrd-to Pittman helped to
move the ball into scoring posi-
ton. Ezell loped over standing
up and run his seasons total to
So points and the final score OF
the game to $40.
