A homecoming crowd of

A tumble, a stiffened defense
and a 15-yard penalty cut short
marches.
The Crimson Tide used two
sustained drives and a 46-yard
punt return by Halfback Piper
to produce touchdowns in each
of the first three quarters.
H alfback Cotton Clark
scored on a 4-yard run early in
the opening quarter and Ma
math threw touchdown passes
of q and 8 yards to End Bill
Battle for the other scores. Tim
Davis added two conversions.
The first march covered IS
yards in seven plays, with Ma
math accounting for 48 of the
total on his running and pass

Butch Wilson carried to the 4
