AHS Bees Drop Close Contest Tallapoosa Season's Football Closer Played On Unorthodox Gridiron In Georgia The AnnLston High School team played heads-UD football against a Tallapoosa, varsity squad yesterday afternoon but came out on the lower end of a 18-to-13 score in the thrilling season closer on the unorthodox Tallapoosa, field. Although Jthe Bullpups.have turn ed in only. one win this season. Coach Nichols has turned up some very promising material for next Fall's varsity squad. The Junior varsity gridsters have been faced by heavier and more experienced teams in all of their games on two occasions they were Kame enough to take on varsity teams and possibly In their first game, they have consistently outplayed, their for almost four full quarters of every game.

Yesterday's game was no excep tion to their rule of playing ball with all of their ability, as they ac complished considerably more for their efforts than their opponents but, as usual, the Jsreaks seemed to go the other way. The 90-yard Tallapoosa field which made a ten- yard set-back necessary every time the teams reached the 30-yard line caused quite a bit of confusion among the Annlston players and resulted in a mlsundersUndlng several times. Buddy White and Ralph Tllllson were the ground gaining stars and each netted a touchdown for the game. White scored the initial An nlston touchdown in the first period when he slipped away 6n 30-yard sprint behind perfect blocking. Tll llson added the other score in the third quarter on an end sweep and White kicked the extra point.

Tal lapoosa scored their touchdowns in the first, third, and fourth quarters. DSrrol Watson led the Annlston line in one of its best performances of the season and turned in the best performance among the linemen al though George Rollins, William Rich. Burel Bobby Wright, and Paul Ikorskl were continually out-charging their opponenu on almost every operation. The startling line-up for the Bull-pups had Rollins and Weight at endst Bell and Smith at Rich and LeCroy at guards, Williams at center, Cameron at quarterback. TillLson and Jones at halfbacks, and White at fullback.

The reserves were Watson, Sikorskl, O'Brien, Bonds, Anchor, Gorham, Pullen, Heath, and Mullendore. RABBITTOWN By MRS. W. C. HYATT The Rev.
