Dropped Second
Game Of Season.

Last Friday night, October
18th, the Milford Bucs tangled
with their traditional rivals, the
Seaford Bluejays, with the final
score 13 : 6. Two thousand Mil
ford and Seaford fans were on
hand to witness the fray.
The game started on a bad
note for Milford when they
fumbled the kickoff on their
own 3o-yard line and Seaford
recovered. The Bluejays drove
the remaining yardage and took
an early lead with Denny Russell
scoring from about 5 yards out.
The point after touchdown was
missed.
Milford's defense frightened up
in the second quarter and
allowed no Seaford first downs
in that quarter. At the half, the
score stood 6 0, Seaford's
favor.
In the third quarter, the Buc
drive was again halted when Bill
Clark Of the Bluejays intercepted
a look-in pass on about his own
40-yard line. This proved to be
a fatal play for Milford because
the Seaford offense put on a 40
yard drive that was terminated
by Bill Clark carrying the ball
