A Whipple-less Perry Panther j t' am suffered its second defeat of 5 j the season Friday night at the hands | ' | of a sharp-shooting band of Monte- j ‘ j zuma Aztecs, 28 to 26. The Perry boys almost pulled the game cut of the fire in the last few j 1 minutes, but James DcVaughn, ' | Montezuma’s all-state guard, pushed | j a shot in from the circle in the last i 1 minute and put the game on ice. The score was knotted at 12-12 j i j at half-time, but the Aztecs pulled J | away from the Panthers in the ; l third quarter and at one time led, j ! 21-14, i Clint Cooper, Perry captain and | j forward, warmed up and joined Bledsoe in sinking 12 points in the last 10 minutes of the game, pulling 1 up within one point of the winners. 1 Cooper played the last half under the handicap of having four fouls called on him by half-time. Deryle Whipple, sparkplug of the team, suffered a sprained arm play ing touch football during the holi days and will not bo able to play for several weeks. This will be cood news to Perry’s opponents, bad news for Coach E. P. Staples and his plucky squad. Pete Kinman and DcVaughn led the Montezuma scoring, with 12 and 8 points. For Perry, Bledsoe was next in line to Cooper with 6 and Thompson sacked up 4, besides playing a n excellent defensive game. Lassiter and Braddock did a swell job of officiating. With two losses and 13 victories for the season, the Panthers jour neyed to Macon last night to meet I the always-powerful Lanier High Poets.
