Perry Takes Two
From Hawkinsviiie
Perry High dealt two defeats
to the Hawkinsvile five here Fri
day night to add two more to
add two more to their thus-far
perfect record.
In the opening “B” game, the
score was never close, the Bees,
led by the scoring and defensive
play of Howard Peyton, leaving
the Hawkinsviiie boys a t the
short end of a 88 to 12 score by
the final whistle. Peyton ac-1
counted for 12 joints and the
scoring honors for the game.
The first string seemed to be
below their normal form, ren
dering the first quarter of the
second grme a slow and unevent
ful period, In the second quarter,
they recovered slightly, put still
seemed to be below par. Despite
the 40 to 18 score at the end of
the game, the Panthers looked
worse Friday night than in any
previous game of Hie season.
