Cooper
In one of the most outstanding
exhibitions of football prowness in
Cooper schoolboy football, Morris
McConnell, 190 pound Cooper
Bulldog fullback. Friday night at
Cooper Athletic Field showed 1,-
200 fans how football should be
played as Honey Grove defeated
Cooper 19-6.
McConnell, half of the Bulldog
offense that racked up 46 points
last week against Wolfe City, was
all alone in the offensive punch
this week as Jerry Wright, the re-
maining half of the combination,
was injured early in the first
quarter and saw no action for the
remainder of the game. Besides
taking care of his usual running
chores, McConnell fell into the
role of a passer and completed sev-
eral to Cooper receivers.
McConnell carried the ball
through the line 28 times during
the game for a total of 97 yards
picked up. His average carry was
for slightly better than four yards
per try, although none of his run-
ning attempts during the game
was for better than nine yards.
McConnell received three passes
for a total of 20 yards and passed
11 times, completing four for a
total of 25 yards, six were in
two more first downs.
Getting down close to Cooper's
goalline. Honey Grove went to the
line but four tries found them
still two yards shy of a first down
inside Cooper's 10 yard line.
Jerry Wright ran the ball out
for eight yards but was hurt on
a pass play and had to leave the
game. Brown then kicked to the
Honey Grove 49 yard line. Hoot-
en hit Bocknal a jarring tackle as
he came over left guard causing
him to fumble with George
Crumbley recovering for Cooper.
Marion Brown was rushed as he
attempted to pass on the next play
and fumbled with Honey Grove
recovering.
Second Quarter
Wood attempted to pass but it
was knocked down by Gene Jones.
A second pass was short and over
the middle but was good for 12
yards and a first down setting the
ball squarely on the 20 yard line.
Bocknal then skirted right end. ]
outrunning the Bulldog secondary
to go over for the first Honey
Grove score standing up. The
kick for extra point was low and
no good making the score 6-0 for
Honey Grove.
The Warriors kicked off to the
19-0.
Fourth Quarter
Honey Grove then kicked to
McConnell who brought the ball
up to the 40 yard line. McCon-
nell passed to Eben Harris for 11
yards and a first down. McCon-
nell passed to Clifton for seven
yards then hit the line for four
more to make a first down.
McConnell then carried the hall
nine straight times, hitting the
middle of the line and racking up
two first downs on the way. His
last three carries were inside the
10 yard line from which point he
went over for a touchdown. A
pass for extra point was no good
as the game ended making the
score 19-6.

Don’t suiter restless nip'hts with these dis-

The Grumbling Christian
Reba Sanford
The grumbling Christian is more
greedy for God’s goods than God’s
grace.
Seek ye first the Kingdom of
God and his righteousness and all
these things will ho added unto
you.
If we would think of our spirit-
ual need more and less of our
worldly gain, God would be more
pleased with us; we would have
more in the end.
What would you give in ex-
change for your soul?
If we arc not careful wc will
sell out lock, stock, and barrel
to the Devil. That is his job to
sec that we do. It’s not God’s
will that any should perish. Sa-
tan would like to see every one
of us spend eternity in a burning
hell.
Sometimes we let thc root of
bitterness spring up in our hearts.
If we brood over the petty vex-
ation of life, thc acts and faults
of others, it may cloud our hearts
and minds and keep us from see-
ing the manifestation of Love.
Let us as Christians do more
praying and less grumbling.
Think it over. (pd. adv.)
