(At least, so says Will Wynn of the Berne Witness): "Erne and Company were froten out before they got to Huntington and took the whole first half to get warmed up. which was way too long, and the Cube never did get thawed out and took a worse drubbing. The Bears outscored the Vikings the last half, but that 248 first half lead was a high peak to erawl over on a frosty evening.” otto — NEI Conference W L.
