Inmon carried for nine-plusyards, and then carried elevenyards on a second-and-inchessituation for a first down onEton's 10-yard marker. JamesSmith picked up four yards,and Eton's Jim Hall spotted acarry by Inmon on the nextplay, nailing him at the seven

Central's defenders foundEton's switch to a shotgun of-fense made the mid-field pas-sing game difficult to contain,but the Fighting Christianscould not take advantage ofthat offense with limited spacebetween them and the goal. De-fensive ends Charles Smith andRonald McNeil in particularput strong pressure on quarter-backs Twisdaie and West, forc-ing them to throw too quickly.
