North Tiebreaker
At Northeast
Judge 12, Dougherty 7
An overflow crowd of 9,500 watched this one, necessitated
when Dougherty triumphed over Judge, 9-6, one week earlier
in the final game of the regular season. The Crusaders came
back from a 7-0 deficit on short runs by Charlie Jarvis and
QB Bill Kelly. Tom Walsh's fumble recovery and a bad snap
on a punt set up those scores. Reserve QB Bob Sutton, an early
replacement for the injured Glenn Hannigan, passed 14 yards to
Jim Callahan for Dougherty's score. Those two connected for 57
yards to the Judge 24 as the game wound down. There was only
time for one more play, an incompletion.
Final
At Kennedy Stadium
Judge 32, St. James 14
Charlie Jarvis scored on passes of 40 and 18 yards from Bill
Kelly and ran 8 yards for a TD to lead Judge. He also kicked two PAT and
uncorked a 66-yard quick kick. Kelly scored a TD of his own on a keeper.
Frank McGuigan got the Crusaders rolling by scoring on a 55-yard
interception return. For St. James, halfback Tom Kaufman threw for two
scores on trick plays and Bob "Sparky" Faries had an interception.
