MILLER COUNTY FALLS, 13 TO 12!— Seminole breaks losing streak AFTER 26 GAMES without victory, the Seminole Indians finally broke into the win column with a narrow 18-12 victory over the Miller County Pirates in a region IB west contest in Colquitt Friday night. The Indians had snapped their losing streak two weeks earlier in Vienna by playing the cubs to a 13-13 tie, but Friday’s win was the first one since October of 1961. It was the fourth loss of this season for the Pirates, though they made a battle all the way on the fine running of Phillip Floyd, and the ball handling ability of quarterback Harry Sloan. Phillips was the top gainer of the night, running 17 times for 87 yard,s as many as all the Indians, an average of 5.1 per carry- On the other run ning plays he was a fine decoy. Phillips was shifted from the line where he ' played guard, when Olen Mock, the Pirate fullback was injured two weeks ago. It was a wise move, because he lowers his head and hits the line like a piledriver. Mike Bowen was Seminole’s top gainer with 48 yards in 14 carries, and he scored the team’s second touchdown af ter throwing a pass for the first one. Luke Spooner’s toe was the difference in the outcome. He kicked the point after the first TD that made the In dians the winners, and his punting average of 36.2 yards in five tries kept the Pirates back down the field. One of Spooner’s shortest kicks was actually his best one. This was early in thengame when he kicked the ball dead on the Miller five yard line. The game’s activity went like this: Seminole received the kick off that opened the game but could not move. This was when Spooner punted to the Pirates five yard line. The In dian defense kept the Pirates bottled up and they punted back, the Indians now setting up a scoring march from the Miller 25 yard line. Baker passed to Don Butler for a first down at the eleven, Bo wen ran to six, then fired a pass to fullback Paul Brimlow who went in for the touch down with 2:51 left on the clock. Spooner’s kick for the point was good. The rest of the first half was filled with punt exchang es with neither side threaten ing seriously. Percy Phillips intercepted an Indian pass and the Pirates moved to the Tribe 33 yard line, but Herby Crosby knifed through to drop Sloan for a loss and the drive faded away. W. A. Dowdy recovered an Indian fumble early in the third period to give Miller the ball on the Tribe 37 yard line, and fullback Floyd worked it down to the Indian four yard line, then plowed over the right side for the touchdown. His attempt to run for the point failed and the Indians had a 7-6 lead- Following a punt exchange, and now in the last period, the Indians were in possession on their 43 yard line. Bowen and Brimlow, aided by a 15-yard penalty, moved to the Miller 23 yard line. Quarterback Bruce Baker kept the ball on the next play and drove to the 17, but a five-yard penalty placed it back on the 22. Here King Clayton ran to the left flat and tossed a pass to Bo wen, the play covering 22 yards and the touchdown, thanks to a great blocking job by Harry Whittaker. This time the conversion attempt by Spooner failed and the score was 13-6. Now with time a factor, the Pirates took the kickoff and marched on the running of Phillips and Sloan to the In dian 20. With 4:05 left on the clock, Sloan faked a bit, then tossed to Phillips who was all alone near the goal, so all he had to do was step over for the score. Again Phillips fail ed to make the point that would have tied it up and the scoring of the evening was over. Seminole had many heroes in the victory in the rain.
