l 1 5 Benson Beats Marshall Fran Kane takes off. Washington Bobs Marshall Marshall suffered its worst defeat of the season in the hands of Washington. Washington trounced the Minutemen 20 to 0. Their first quarter touchdown came at the end of a long drive and was accomplished with a one yard run. Marshall's hopes were raised twice during the game. Once in the third quarter Marv Schaver recovered a Washington punt and ran 40 yards to the Washington 30-yard line. Unfortunately, a penalty brought the ball back to our 30-yard line. The other great moment of excitement came when M-Man Iohn Fahrner ran from our 25-yard line to the Washington 35. Six more downs carried the Minutemen to within 20 yards of the goal line. A fourth down forced them to relinquish the ball. They were unable to recover the ball before the game ended. Marshall'sdefeat from Benson surprised no one as the Engineers were at the top of the League. Benson's Jim Warren made four touchdowns and three field goals. With the Engineers makinga touchdown and a field goal in every quarter for a total score of 28, the M-Men didn't catch on until the fourth quarter when Ierry Betts ran the ball the final three yards for a touchdown. The conversion attempt was no good. Marshall 6 , , 176 An un-identified player comes around the end . Benson 28
