FRESHMAN FOOTBALL The post war era at St. Michael's has seen some strong freshman football teams, and this year's edition of the Purple Squires was no exception. Barry Branon's frosh went through an undefeated, untied, unscored upon three game schedule with near ease. SMC FROSH 25 - ST. LAWRENCE FROSH 0 - This was the opener for the Squires and supposedly a real rugged curtain raiser. The Larries had already played two games, wrapping them up in convincing fashion and neither of their opponents had scored upon them. However, once the game started there was little doubt of the out- come. The first quarter was scoreless, but in the second quarter the Squires opened up, with two scores. The first touchdown was scored by little Paul Landry, l50 pound scatback. Shortly after the Squires got their hands on the ball again, quarterback lohn Barbati connected with end Paul Crotty for the second six-pointer. ln the second half, St. Michael's added two more touchdowns but these were unnecessary insurance as the Larries just couldn't cross the goalstripe. The final scoreboard read St. Michaels 25, St. Lawrence 0. SMC FROSH 21-VERMONT FROSH 0-St. Michaels made it two in a row over Vermont for the l950 football season as the Frosh picked up where the varsity left off and trampled the Kittens Z1-0. Again the big offensive stars were the two Pauls, Landry and Crotty. Landry hit paydirt twice while Crotty was again on the receiving end of a Barbati touchdown pass. As in the St. Lawrence game the scrappy Frosh line piled up the oppositions offensive movements. Among those who showed definite promise were Bob Leahy, guard, Ioe Tricario, center, and lim Mc- Donald, end. SMC FROSH 24-MIDDLEBURY FROSH 0-The Squires con- vincingly wrapped up their successful football season by whipping the Panther Frosh 24-0. It was another field day for Landry who piled up all four touchdowns. This gave the mighty mite individual scoring honors for the Frosh squad. His seven touchdowns accounted for 42 of the Squires' 70 points.

In the third period, after a 60 yard march which was featured by I-Ieggarty's running, Plourde tallied again. Before the period's end Heggarty himself added one and Coggio made it 27-6. Despite Doc Iacobs' free substituting, the Knights could not be stopped and Ken Casperson tallied on a beautiful bootleg play. Don LaBossiere then pulled down the curtain with the most spectacular run of the day, a 78 yard punt return which racked up St. Michael's last touchdown. A. I. C.- Back again in the city where they had met their first defeat the Knights were once again on the short end of the odds as they squared off against Ameri- can International College. This time however the trip back was a pleasant one for the Knights who upset the dope and edged the Aces l9-l4. After a scoreless first period the Knights got things rolling as Frank Simas climaxed an 80 yard drive by turning right end to score standing up. On the following kickoff, the Gannonmen came roar- ing back to go into the lead on a Salvucci to Lukasiewicz pass. Murph Butova added the precious point after. Before the half ended Ken Casperson passed to Bob Kateley in the A. I. C. secondary and Kateley went over to give St. Mikes a 12-7 halftime lead. With Salvucci doing the heavy Work, A. I. C. came back and made the score 14-12. Then, as time ran out, St. Mikes took to the air and Ed Krupinsky hit Kateley in the right flat to give the big North Adams lad his Bill Zimolka second TD of the day, Art Coggio added the extra point and the Springfield Michaelmen were able to celebrate ct I9-I4 win. LOYOLA-The best football season in the history of the college came to a tumultous conclusion as the Knights trounced a helpless Loyola of Montreal team, 75-0, The Mikemen scored at will even though Doc Iacobs kept his first team benched for most of the game. There was no doubt about the outcome from the very first moments and by the time the teams changed ends at the quarter, the Knights were coasting on top of a 34-0 advantage. Iack Heggarty batted 1,000 for the fray, scoring on all of the three times he carried and averaging 30 yards per try. Mike Carr, playing for the first time since the Arnold game, led the Knights in scoring by crossing the chalk lines three times. This was despite the fact that the blond sophomore carried only six times in the whole afternoon. Simas, the state's high scorer, also managed to get into the act with three TD's. The remaining scores were chalked up by Ken Cas- person and Al Cioffi and Art Coggio drop-kicked four points after. Loyola could do next to nothing against the St. Michael's line led by Tiger Hermans, lim Whitlock and Dick Klaess and the Canadian team returned home with little to show for its harrowing afternoon in Winooski.
