The CARDINAL I936 The greatest football team in the history of Catholic University is the title that justly falls on the shoulders of the Flying Cardinals of 1935. A brilliant season counting seven victories and one defeat came to a glorious climax when the Redbirds were chosen to represent the North in the annaul New Years Day Orange Bowl game in Miami, Florida to meet the strong Mississippi University team. It was in this game that Catholic University ushered in a new era in its athletic history when it swept to a thrilling 20-19 victory over the Ole Miss pigskin forces. Twelve thousand spectators thrilled to the scintillating battle that saw the Northern eleven not only conquer Ole Miss but also beat a blazing tropical sun that threatentd to turn the tide of battle to the South- erners in the late stages of the game. The Cardinals had piled up an early lead and were comfortably in advance for three periods of the contest. However, as the final quarter progressed the hot Miami sun left the CU. forwards and secondary gasping for breath and literally out on their feet, while the Ole Miss lads were coming back with a renewed Vigor that came very near felling the Washingtonians. Catholic University scored three touchdowns during the contest and all on entirely different methods of play. A slashing ground drive, a per- fectly executed forward pass and a blocked kick which Ferdie Rydzewski scooped up and scampered over the goal line, were the avenues of scor- ing employed by the Cardinals. However, in addition to the three touch- downs marked up by the CU. men there were also two points after that were scored by the talented toes of George Mulligan and Bob Makofske and it was this pair of pOints that gave the Red and Black its well-deserved margin of victory. Among the teams that fell before the onslaught of the Redbird machine during the regular season are listed those that represent the finest in their sections of the country. Those elevens were La Salle, Du- quesne, Detroit, St. Marys of Texas, West Virginia Wesleyan, Western Maryland, and North Carolina State. The lone defeat came at the hands of the Blue Demons of De Paul in Chicago, when flve C.U. regulars CAPT. EDWIN KARPOWICH l2l
