fourth period and the first score
came on a 37-yard pass from Hag-
gard to Gholson, who took the ball
over the goal line. This was truly
a great catch, as three Elm Grove
men were around Gholson. Then
Haggard kicked the uAtici point.
The Elm Grove Frogs came back
and scored a touchdown before Kil-
dare could solve their passing at-
tack, but blocked the kick for extra
point. The Eagles scored again a
few minutes before the game ended
on smash by Minnich who smashed
over the goal line carrying three
tacklers with him. The game end-
ed with Kildare winning 15-6.
