    • "THE GAME STORY" written by an unknown assistant
    The Bombers were well-drilled and worked well as a team. The Mid-Town team was vice-versa.
    However, the Monsters played it to the hilt and, for one man's opinion, hit harder than the Bombers.
    Monsters Ron Berrier and Duian McClain made many savage tackles. However, Mid Town's full-
    back/linebacker Bill Mohr played out of this world, blocking and tackling. You could hear Bill hit up
    at Monument Square. Mid Town was continually sucked out of position and missed quite a few easy
    tackles. Bomber QB, Bob Henry, is 500 percent improved over last year. He runs mainly rollout-
    keeps left or right and is now powerful and fast enough to make it go for him. It takes good hard
    tackles to bring him down. On these keep's, Henry's three "cronies" in the backfield were very good
    at getting out in front of him to block. In this respect they are second only to Strodes Mills, who of all
    teams I've seen are the league's best blocking backs. If the Bombers have a weakness it has to be their
    defensive secondary. Poor pursuit and coverage of receivers. Midtown waited until it was 27-0 before
    they started to throw and sweep the ends. From then on the Bombers had all the action they could
    handle. Four key Midtowners were absent. The best team certainly won. Well coached outfit-the Bombers.
