Shelton fullback Allen Tahja !i: !ii< By JAN DONALDSON • The Shelton Highclimbers simply overpowered the Elma Eagles for a 21-7 victory at Elma Friday night. The Highclim,bers displayed a strong.running at- tack and passed only when nec- essary. Shelton wasted no time in get- ting on the scoreboard. Their first series of downs forced them to punt, but the punter, .Brad Bransford, drew a roughing-the- kicker penalty. Thus Shelton re- tained possession of the ball on the Elma 27 yard line. From there Mary Wilson gained 19 yards on two carries. With the ball on the eight yard line Ed Adams went the distance for the score. The extra-point kick by Dave Steinberg was good to put the score at 7-0 Shelton. Elma threatened late in the first quarter. Elma fullback Luis Spencer carried twice for 11 yards and received a 12 yard pass for quarterback Herb Mox- ley. The drive was stopped when ,i'  , ,:,?,,i   ..... , is smothered under a mass of Shelton tacklers on this play, which was typical of the Highclimber defensive effort during Friday night,s 21-7 defeat of Elma.
