| LONGVIEW - Playing inspired football, the Kilgore Bulldogs achieved a long-sought ambition when they humbled the vaunted Longview Lobos here Friday night, 6 to 0, before a capacity crowd.
Head coach Dutch Meyer and his two assistants, Mike Brumbelow and Walter Roach of TCU were in the stands and watched I. B. Hale's boys turn on the heat in the third period and march to a touchdown. Longview's fumble on a kickoff paved the way for the Kilgore victory. The visitors recovered on the Longview 35. Hallmark, spark plug of the Kilgore machine, passed to Lewis for fifteen yards and on the net play plunged through center for seven. He then shot a bullet pass to Lewis for seven, and made two in a line plunge. On the next play, Hallmark went over and the Kiglreo contingent of 1,500 went wild. Both teams took to the air in a big way. Longview completing ten passes in thirty-six attempts and Kilgore ten in twenty-nine. It was the first Kilgore victory over Longview in about ten years, and the fans back home had promised the Bulldogs everything from a dinner to a trip to the Super Bowl game if they won. L.N. Crim, wealthy oil and theaer man, gave them a dinner shortly after their return to Kilgore. |
