ST. AMBROSE . . 7
ST. JOSEPH. . . . 14
The Bees' second venture of the
season proved no more successful
than the first; this time the tormentors were the Pumas of St. Joes,
who upset the Bees, 14-7.
The passing of Jack Abbott and
the power running of fullback Ken
Floerke set up the first score of the
night. Bob Durnin bulled over from
two yards out. Dick Lingle converted. Quarterback Bill Zimmer of the
visitors knotted the count in the second stanza when he scored on a quarterback sneak from one yard away.
A blocked knick early in the third
period set up the winning tally, the
victors moving 18 yards in two plays,
Zimmer once again sneaking over.
Abbott and Floerke once again
sparked the Saints' attack in the final period, but three drives fell short,
all within the 10-yard line.
Floerke (with ball) is caught
between two tacklers as
Zitkus (65)
comes to his aid.
