5S Ecainalperstr =~ y) mR chi SE SRE A IRE EOE ne WI ae + POINT FOR WIN © .Bud Xyle, Louis Hartman, Tom . YELLOWJACKETS OVER MINERS ‘(continued from page 1) potentially good passer. Placer had two boys in their backfield, Yokota and Sinnock, . who were pains in the neck of . the Yellowjacket defenders all. Alternating they carried . night. the ball for the green-clad_ invaders to a 33-0 lead at the end of the third quarter. With the two .retired to the sidelines, the Yellowjackets pushed over two quick touchdowns to end the game with a more respectable tally. Statistics gave Nevada City a decided edge in the game yet as far as a spectator was concerned the game was Placer’s all the way. Nevada ‘City scored 14 first downs to 10 for Placer and rolled up 362 vards to.260 for Placer, Sinrock, a tall boy from Colfax, who kicked them long, booted the opening kickoff to Morrison on the five. Morrison returned to the 12 where he fumbled the ball rolling into the end zone. Penrose recovered and got ‘to the five before he was hauled down by a swarm of visitors. ' Three plays gained six yards and Penrose kicked, the ball al-. ¢ most being blocked. Chris Catlin took the punt on the Yellowjacket 40 and raced back to the 27. Jon Lardner fumbled on the secplay and Gordon Lageson recovered for ‘Nevada City on the 31. Smithson lost four, Penrose’s pass intended for Ellis was intercepted by Greg Colt on the Yellowjacket 40. Colt reached the 12 yard line before he was shoved out of bounds. Yokota hit the line for two and Sinnock went through@is right guard to the, three. Ah offside penalty nullified the gain. Yokota picked up seven yards, but Morris fumbled and a Yellowjacket recovered on the eight. The Yellowjackets got four yards on three plays and Penrose kicked to Sinnock on the NC 44, and the big fullback rolled back to the 27 on the punt return. Yokota smacked right guard for eight, Morris failed but Sinnock plowed to the seven for a firstdown Yokota_cut_back and slashed through right guard for the first unconverted TD of the . game, 942 mmutes out. Nevada City rolled back on the kickoff from the 10 yard line to the Placer 31 but lost the ball on the Placer’ 27 on a fumbled lateral. Placer made one first . down but then was held and had . to kick on their own 43. A Ne-. vada City charging player crashed into the punter and the 15yard penalty give Placer a first down on the mid-stripe. From there the visitors rolled to a second TD and converted for 13-0. Lardner carried the ball over the double line. An intercepted Penrose pass a few minutes later set up the next touchdown. Yokota intercepted on the Placer 40. Yokota then flipped two passes, the second one to Colt good for 20 yards: and the payoff. Converted the half ended 20-0. Yokota took the second half kickoff on the. 11 and returned to the 38. The Placer team scored in seven plays and converted for 27-0. Nevada City bogged down on its own 46-yard line trying to pass on fourth down. On the first play Yokota passed to Sparks who ran 35 yards for Placer’s final score for 33-0. Six minutes of the second half had elapsed. The Yellowjackets stopped another Placer drive on the three in the fourth quarter and then marched: 97 yards in 11 plays to ‘score. Penrose passed to Ellis in the end zone on the eighth play but a clipping penalty nullified the score. Penrose ran around his ‘right end for a sure counter. Fifty seconds to go the home team made ‘its second touchdown with Smithson going-over from th one-yard line to end a 43-yard march. ~ Placer NC Hye, First: downs 34:24. 14 6 ..
