Lisas Take Opener _
■In one of the hottest* contested
belli games assn in a long time,
the Brownwod Lions edged out
the StephenviNe basketball team,
44-42, in Brownwood Thursday
night, «* Harold Moore sank a
one-handed set shot from deep on
the left side of the -court with
leas than a minute to go. The
thing that really 'hurt the kwals
was a combi notion of a personal
foul on Wen Latikey and a tech-
nical foul on Ray Graves in the
final two minutyg of play. Lee
Wise, Lion forward, took advan-
tage of these free tosses and tied
the score at 42-all. Then Moore
sank his shot and that was the
ball gams.
The game was a thriller from
start to finish. During the first
half there were only five points
difference in the scores, as the
Lion* forged ahead, and at the
half Brownwood led 23-22. In the
second half Stephenville took a
six-point lead, which was the great-
est of the entire game.
Don Lowery, sterling Jaeket
guard who fouled out 4ux minute*
deep in thfe third quarter, was
sorely missed the remainder of
the game. He did an exesptlonal
job of guarding Roland Elledge,
Brownwood’* high-ecoring center.
Ray Grave*, Jacket forward, led
in the scoring for the
he tabbed 20 points. Elledge
Brownwood was second with
and Wen Lackey scored 13.
