I Coach Tom Hutton’s Ewing Ti gers clawed their way hack into the game in the second half, chalk ; ing up two TD's but Creighlon won it, 13-12. Ewing’s first marker came on a seven-yard plunge by Leon Hahl back, regular junior lineman who was shifted to the backfield be cause of a broken up backfield. Leon is regular tackle and weighs two hundred pounds He finished the evening with 120 yards rush ing, all picked up through the line. Hutton's regular backs on the shelf were Harold Parks, who saw only a few minutes of action because of injury; Ronnie Thoen del, regular quarter, who has a sprained ankle, and Royce Wright, who sat it out because of ineligi bility. Gary Eacker hit Jerry Hal back, Leon's brother, with a pass that covered 18 yards and gave Ewing its second TD. Ewing failed on l»oth PAT tries. The first attempt was a pass that went too high; the second was a plunge that went across but offici als found one too many in Ewing’s backfield and the extra point was no good. Ewing racked up its second TD and came within a hair of tying it with only 50 seconds remaining on the clock. The Tigers, in Hutton's first year, defeated Atkinson, 6-0, and lost eight others Opponents, how ever, scored only 123 points and 33 of those points were stacked up by Battle Cheek. Compared to the record the defensive play was good. Ewing scored 50 points. Jerry Hahlback scored six of Ew> ing’s eight TD’s. One was a 94 yard romp. Four came from a fake kick. Shortest scamper on the fake was 40 yards; longest 60 yarus. End Larry Rotherham made pass catches and built up 220 yards.
