illanooa ig (B.ia. 2 o N October 20 the rampaging Wikl- cats of Villano a trampled George- town at Shibe Park, coming out on the long end of a 19-2 count. After the Georgetown kick-off, the Cats ran aground in three plays, and returned a punt as far as their own 48-yard stripe. One running play produced a first down for the home towners on the 20, but here the G.U. line held and Werder and Koncelik broke through forcing the opposition to throw two futile aerials. Georgetown took possession of the ball, but no advance could be made, and Raba punted to the Wildcats ' 30. Capriotti recei ed the ball, and was not hindered until Banonis bounced him on the Hoyas 38, The next play proved too bewildering for the Hilltoppers, so while most of the team was engaged in chasing a decoy, Rogers slipped through tackle on what might be termed as a delayed hand- off thrust. He scored unmolested while Kane flattened Bonforte with one of the most beau- tifully thrown blocks of the day. That was, unfortunately, the tenor of the game, because the ' Cats scored again on that same play, the only difference being that Ca- priotti carried instead of Rogers. Their third score was the climax of a sustained 87-yard drive, Rogers and Capriotti performing most of the labor. The Georgetown thrill came when Johnny Preston scampered 71 yards down the far side line, only to be caught on the 8-yard line, and the Hoyas couldn ' t push the ball over the goal. Another drive, featuring Jack McTamney, stalled on the Wildcats ' 20 by interception, and on the next play resulted in an automatic safety after a Villanova fumble rolled out of the end rone.

Baranowski, who was later to sa e the da for Georgetown, added the extra point to tie up the score. The third period was scoreless, but the final stanza brought much excitement to the chilled fans. After Georgetown drove from their own 48 to the St. Louis 1, a Baranowski fumble ga e St. Louis the ball. A wobbly Billiken kick then went out to their own 14, and the Hoyas were then again in position to score. On a succeeding play, Georgetown fumbkvL but the alert Tony Beyer recovered the l all on the Billikens ' 5. Baranowski then plungCLl () er the line making the score i )-7. The tr for the extra point was blocked. St. Louis was the first to score, taking the aeUantage of a G.U. miscue. Paul Walsh, who pla ed a fine game, fumbled on his own 8-yard line, and Weisner of the Billikens reco ' ered. On the fourth down, Crowder shot around his own left end for a touchdown and Broeg added the extra point. The real hero of the game was, of course, Be er, who by scoring in the second period, and by recover- ing the fumble in the last, enabled the Hoyas to rack up another win. The Hoya line, big and handy, sparked by Elmer Oberto, caused the St. Louisites plenty of trouble by recovering 3 of their fumbles. C,i:OR(,l-: WASHINGTON STOPPED!
