IL thirteen years the Panth-

and ironically, it happened on
Friday the thirteenth. 1t was
a. closely fought contest all
the way with defensive play
being outstanding by both
teams.
The only score of the game
came in the second quarter
when Wayne Self of Tchula
went over from one yard out.
Self had scored previously on
the same series Of plays but
the I'd was called back be-
cause of an offside penalty.
The score was set up by an
Is yard pass play from quar-
terback Bruce Taylor to Self.
Self added the extra point.
Durant's only threat came
in the second quarter. This
threat was ended when the
Tigers lost the ball on downs.
The drive carried to the Tch-
ula twelve. The Partners only
other threat came when they
irove to the Tiger one yard
line in the closing moments
of the game but lost the ball
on downs.
1 Thalongest Tchula run was
pIedueAd by two Panthers,
Billy Paul Lee and Billy Bell.
Each had runs of 26 yards.

Ask DOROTHY DRAPER
It's Mix, Rather
Thanh Match Now

One thing that everybody
returning from the summer
Furniture Market seemed to
agree on this year was that
it is the year of the indi-
vidual.
AS one of the Market viSi-
tors summed it up, Manu-
facturerS are offering the
American consumer such a
wealth of variation-Such an
eclectic array of design
that there is no longer any
excuse for an uninviting
saneness to home decor"
There are all kinds of Gin
fluences" at work. All the
holne-maker has to do is to
decide whether she leans to-
ward the Spanish Mediterra-
mean, Italian Renaissance,
English Regency, Italian Di-
reetoire, French Provincial.
to- say nothing of the Orien-
tai trend. And of course, the
reliable Early American or
Colonial mood is bigger than
ever, as they say in the
trade.
And the nice part of it is
you don't have to stick to
a roomful of one type. It's a
mix" rather than match"
era we are living in. For in
stance, a Tufted Victorian
sofa looks quite friendly next
to a stark Shaker type desk.
We noted that furniture
that looks good from all an
giles seems to be the impor-
tant news. Chairs and sofas
may be used as partial room
dividers and must look as
attractive from the back or
sides as from the front.
Woven cane and latticework
backs on several pieces are
proof of this statement.
Loveseats - whether be-
cause of their romantic name
or because they are so right
for a small apartment or
even used with a full-sized
sofa - are definitely Gin"
Colors? Black and java
brown with olive and avo-
cado greens, and red used
with green and mustard seem
the favorites. Remember "it'S
the year of the Individual
