The Braves took an early lead
behind the quarterbacking of Fred

Miss. Then, under the direction
of Johnnie Gillian quarterback
from Moss Point, Miss, the score
was 14-O. 1t stayed 14-O during
the first half. However, Coach
E. E. Simmons emptied his bench
as he watched the freshmen boys
get their try-outs under the lights
at the home of the Braves.
1t was, however, during the last
minutes of the last half that Coach
Simmons turned loose the power
fakes, the beautiful blocking, the
fine pass-snatching that stood the
crowd on its feet again and again.
The most outstanding perform
ance was featured in a 98-yard
gallop with John Robertson of
Hattiesburg, Miss, taking the pig
skin almost the full length of the
field for a touchdown. However,
the standout of the game included
extraordinary performance by the
Jones Brothers of McComb, Fred

fine line play by the following:
Fate Nickel of Greenville, Carlton
Reese CT Moss Point, and Stamps
of Bowling Green, KY. The prom

The team received q boost when
William Spencer, senior fullback,
