J' 5' 'WWTF Laughman, Meluskey, Henry and Davidson line up for the camera. ST. FRANCIS: 8-CHARLOTTE HALL: 20 The injury riddled Prep squad played host to Charlotte Hall Military Academy. of Maryland, on November 4. The starting line-up for The Prep contained many reserves, and with the opening quarter looked as though the Hilltop- pers would stand a good chance of winning, but as the game progressed the lack of experi- enced men was noticed. The Hilltoppers drew the first blood, with Alexsa going over from the ten. Soon after this Alexsa was withdrawn from the game with a rib injury. The combination ol Garner and Kline accounted for the entire score. The game ended with the Cadets out in front, 20-8. Tom Floyd Paul Alexsa Kennedy, Barry and Alexsa practice punting. ST. FRANCIS: 19-WILLIAMSON TRADE: U The Hilltoppers brought their season to a close by defeating Williamson Trade of Philadelphia, 19-0. Weak with injuries the Saints pressed into service Son Henry, who played guard all through the season. Henry showed that he could not only play guard, but could play fullback as well. He scored two touchdowns in the second period from the one and seven-yard lines, re- spectively. The tinal touchdown was scored in the third period, when Eugene Nichols galloped 70 yards. Twenty-four Prepsters donned their uniforms tor the last time. This game was the end of a hard season for the squad and for the seniors playing their final game. James Kilgallen Rudy Fake

Closing out the scoring for Calvert Hall, Kram passed to Lascoste mak- ing the final score 47-13, in favor of St. Francis. ST. FRANCIS: 19-LA SALLE: 7 Under the arcs for the first time, the Prepsters played a highly spirited La Salle team from Cumberland, Maryland. Rudy Fake sparked The Prep by scoring all three touchdowns. He ran for two touchdowns in the second period and one in the third. Coach Thomas, sporting his new defense platoon, did not fair well in the beginning of the game. for in the first minute of play La Salle broke away for a score. Recover- ing from the deficit, the Prepsters managed to pull out in front with the fine tackling of Son Henry and the great running of Rudy Fake. Despite the fact that the Hilltoppers won by a score of 19-7, they lost Spike Davidson, first string end, for the remainder of the season, because of a shoulder injury. This certainly was another hard blow to the squad. Bottom, left: Paul Alexsa being tackled by a Charlotte Hall delender,' Tom Floyd is ready to take out a man.
