onsBy MARVtN KENT

! Gardena Mohicans, after

four wins and one tie to cham pixmshlp, went down In defeat before a fighting squad of Tar- tars Nov. 22. The final Score of the game was Torrance, 18; Gardena, 0.

'Gardena kicked off to start the game, with Bill Cates re- ceiving and carrying back to the Torrance-40-yard line. Inter- mill hit center for one yard gained. Smith made one-half yard on a sneak. Irrtermill kicked to the Garderia 58-yard line; Gardena fumbled. Torrance recovered. It was Torrancc's tall on the Gardena 88-yard line, "JliSt and ten. On first down In- tetmlll passed to,Gates for 30 yards, first and ten. On first down Intermill pdssed to Pates for 30 yards, first and ten on GMflona's eight-yard line. On flfst ' down Intermill hit tackle for the first tally. The try for extra point was no good. Score: Torrance, 6; Gardcna, 0.

After the score the rest of the half was spent by the Tar- tars continually threatening to score, but never quite putting it over. On one series of plays Gordon Smith drove to the one- foot line, only to be penalized for a lineman offside. The first half ended with the score 6-0 in favor of Torrance.

'Gardena, who returned the baH . their own 80-yard line. On bt down they passed, good for • yards. Again they tried a

pass, but it was intercepted by Torrance. It was then Torrance's ball on the 60-yard line, first aria ten. After three plays, Tor- rance kicked. But Gardena was penalized for roughing the kick-

Ijfer, first and teri. Torrance tried pass, but.vit was Intercepted Gardcna Arid .returned to Tor-

40-yardJ line. Gardcna four plays and Torrance

._. over. ,Jt. was .that way all afternoon, the Tartar line con- tinually stopping the Mohican

ick,< and throwing it back In ir facis. The third quarter

just could not hold the Tartar strength; that is the whole

.ary. fin trie fourth quarter Intermi

passed to Kent for the thtrd tally, making the score 18-0. Th' conversion was blocked. Shortl; after the final score, the gam ended. Final score; Torranci 18; Gardena, 0.

And so ends another scasoi qf. football, w4th the Tartars displaying overwhelming powc (tith plenty of deception. It i: Water under the bridge, but ha he Tartars been at full strcngt ill season instead of the last o he games, they would undoubl

odly have hung up a few mon scalps.

With a fine "B" team coming up next year, plus seven

returning lettcrmen, Tor- ance should have a fiiicXt season.
