NO WHERE TO GO — Eagle quarterback Jack Wisdom (12) finds himself in a quandry over
which direction to go as he suddenly finds himself face to face with Kermit's Leo Brooks, (99).
Needless to say, Wisdom came out on the bottom of the heap. (Staff Photos by Lee Sneath)
HOBBS — The Kermit Yellow
Jackets opened their 1965 foot-
ball season Friday on a sour
note as they suffered a heart-
breaking defeat at the hands of
the Hobbs Eagles.
The lone Hobbs score came
late in the second quarter when
Eagle quarterback Jack Wisdom
threw to halfback David Bookert
in the end zone just as the buz-
zer ending the half sounded. Two
Kermit defenders leaped into the
air after the ball, deflecting it
upward. Bookert, who slowed
down and stopped as the buzzer
went off, suddenly found himself
holding the ball.
The extra point was kicked by
Rudy Fuentez.
Both teams went scoreless in
the first period and again in
the third and fourth as they
waged a strong defensive bat-
tle. Though outweighed at al-
most every position, the Jackets
were "tough” and played with
fire and determination. They
never found the key to the Eagle
defense, however.
With the defensive units of
both sides holding well, the game
was virtually a punter's duel as
Kermit was forced to boot out
of trouble seven times for a total
of 319 yards and the Eagles,
eight times for 382 yards.
Late in the in the second period
with Kermit beginning to tire,
the Eagles began a march from
their own 10 yard line, cul-
minating the drive with the touch-
down pass play from the Jacket's
7 yard line.
Andy Buffington played a fine
ball game for Kermit, often pick-
ing up needed yardage on keep-
er plays. His aerial game was
not quite up to par though, throw-
ing seven times and completing
three, for a total of 36 yards.
For Hobbs, the Silver twins,
Donny and Danny, gave outstand-
ing performances both offen-
sively and defensively as they
came through with key blocks or
key tackles time after time.
The victory came as the second
one for Hobbs.

GETS ADVICE — Coach Charles Jetton has a word
of advice for quarterback Andy Buffington during a Yellow
Jacket time out. Apparently the advice paid off (see photo
at right) but the Yellow Jackets were defeated 7-0 any-
way.
OUT’A MY WAY — says Eagle tackle Jack Shelton (75)
as he shoves Kermit end Parnell Skinner (83) aside in an at-
tempt to get to Andy Buffington (11) who is picking up yardage
on a keeper. Billy Thompson (7) hits the ground after knocking
an Eagle over to one side.

pions of New Mexico roiled to

dash in an incredible 9.6 sec-
onds, scored two touchdowns —■
one a 19-yard dash and the oth-
er on a 41-yard pass play from
quarterback Homer Freeman.
Carlsbad scored in the first

run. In the fourth, Danny Smith
