Dunbar's Tigers dropped their first game of the year here Saturday night with a 14-0 loss to the defending state champion Baytown Buccaneers.

Josephus Felder for the second and final marker of the evening. Again the try for the extra point was good.
Dunbar drove to the 12-yard line in the fourth period, but lost possession via the fumble route. Another outstanding play came when Hollis Walton blocked a Baytown punt on the 11.
Carl Taylor set the pace for Dunbar with a pair of 15 yard dashes and one for 13, but the effort proved to be fatal as the Baytown forward wall refused to budge in the paydirt country. Cottrell Allen recovered one fumble on the 50 and the Tigers drove to the 27.
