Good Kicker Otis Williams, 212-f}ound full- back, is the kicker on the Panther squad. On kickoffs he has kicked over the goal line every time ex- cept once. He has also averaged 40 yards on his punts. Two outstanding ,guards for the Panthers are Sasser and Arm- strong. The rest of the Modesto lineup is not complete since Earle is changing it around for the Cub game. Stockton will start its usual eleven. Cubs Defeat Monterey Last Saturday night the Cubs were hosted by the Monterey Pen- ii;isula ColJege Lobos and the Stockton team came out on the long end of a 32-0 count. In the first quarter Eddie Macon took a pass on the 16-yard line and went the rest of the way for a Stockton touchdown. The try for the extra point was missed. Then in the second quarter Rayce Mason returned a Lobo punt 52 yards for another tally. A few minutes later Jerry Griffin ended a 54-yard drive by scoring on a quarterback sneak.

The •rarzans made a touchdown in every quarter, and the extra point was unsuccessful until the last touchdown. The first tally was made by Bill Hardy who crashed off left tackle to om 20 yards to the goal line. In the second period a run by Cecil Workman scored the second touchdown and the Tar- zans went out in front 12-0. In the third quarter, a flat pass from Workman to quarterback Dan Boone was completed for the third touc,hdown, and a safe margin of 18-0 was maintained by the Tar- zans. · In the final period, the Oakdale Bulldogs started to fight back, but they never quite made it across into paydirt. The fourth. touch- down was chalked up again by Bill Hardy who scored standing up from 20 yards out. •Hardy then took the ball off right tackle to score the extra point.
