the offensive has not come around

Ada MeS Out 7-6 Victory Over Pirates
In ThriIIer-DiIler At Harmon Field

In one of the most evenly matched
football games seen on the Harmon
Field gridiron in years the Ada Bull
dogs eked out TO win over Bluff
ton high school for their second sue
cessive win of the season last Friday
night. The loss gave the Pirates
IL mark.
The well seasoned Bulldogs, who
last week held the Wapakoneta-
Blume Redskins to five first downs
in gaining a TO victory, ran into
Pirate team determined to avenge
the $40 setback handed them last
year. The Ada eleven had to fight
for their lives in the closing seconds
to pull the game out of the fire.
AS was predicted by most follow
ers, breaks played a deciding factor
in the contest. The most important
one came when quarterback Jim
Berry bobbled low pass from center
on the attempted extra point try and
was smothered before he could get
the ball away.
Along with the breaks there was
glaring miscue on the part of one
of the officials who failed to put the
ball down on a measurement for first
down. He ruled that Bluffton did not
make the necessary yardage and that
matter of inches stopped a Pirate
drive that seemed destined for pay
dirt.
A scoreless first quarter saw both
teams feeling out the wet footing on
the field that had been soaked by
an all-day rain. Then Ada took ad-
vantage of Pirate tumble on the
Bluffton 25-yard line, and with a.
bout four minutes of the second period
gone, went in for the score. Staley
cracked over tackle from the six and
Ada led 60. Justin Dearth, senior
guard, converted the all-important
extra point from placement and it
turned out to be the big play of the
contest.
Held to but two first downs in the
first half, the Pirates roared back
in the third period aided by the pass
ing of Berry and the running of Joe
Urich, Barry Corson and Jack Fields
and moved to the Ada 18. At this
point Fields took a pitchout from
Berry and scampered the remaining
distance into the end zone for the
touchdown. The missed point told the
tale.
With minutes remaining in the
final period, desperation passes car
ried the Pirates back from their own
20 to the Bulldog 20 when the final
gun sounded. On one of the tosses
Urich took the ball and appeared to
be in the clear when he was caught
from behind.
Each team had ten first downs.
The Pirates tried Is passes and COM
pleted eight of them. The Bulldogs
tried but three passes and completed
one good for "a yards. They had one
intercepted.
The game was a clean, hard
fought one as there We're only five
penalties called throughout. The Pr
ates drew one five-yard penalty in
the first half and two in the second.
The Bulldogs received two 15-yard
penalties, both coming in the second
half.
