f Lex-Cove Jackrabbits Take Sub-District Title, Have Eye on State Heppner has been chosen as the site of the sub-district play off game of 6-man football be tween Lexington and Cove, win ners in their sub-districts of Ore gon district No 3. The game will be played next Saturday, Nov 1 at the rodeo field starting at 1:30. ' Lexington wound up its regu lar season's play last Friday by downing Touchet, Wash 69 to 27. That win made it seven straight, against no losses for the Jackrabbits who have racked up an impressive 264 points in seven games to only 110 for their op position. They have beaten Boardman (forfeit); Irrigon 55 to 8; Weston-40 to 8; lone 31 to 18; Umaplne 55 to 22; Helix 31 to 28 and Touchet 69 to 27. Of Lex ington's total of 264 points, Lee Cornelison has made 180. Lexington also has the record of bring the smallest high school in the state to field a 6-man team. There are only 20 students in high school with 14 of them either playing football or 'man aging. Lex coach Bob Matthews said this week that his boys are point ing for a win over Cove, who last week defeated Hereford 20 to 6. Hereford will play Crane to decide that sub-district title and the winner of that game will play the winner of the Lex-Cove game here for the district title.
