TD. The Maroon bounced back with grim determi- nation with Joe Amico hurling a beautiful 20 yard aerial to left-end Frank Beacham, who made an eye-opening catch for the Saints' only score, and one of the three TD's scored against Duffy for the entire season. Tubinis climaxed the scoring with an ll yard sprint around end. Standouts in the line were McNally, Coppola, Waldmiller, Dwyer and Abbarno. Ed Zacher and Freddie Buscaglia carried the burden of ground gaining for the Maroon. ST. JOE'S - 6 ST. FRANCIS - 6 Captain McNally The Maroon and White literally slaughtered the Red Raider backs with their bone-crushing tackles and unique defense. The favored Paiders found themselves up against a stone wall when they encountered the determined Saints. St. Francis was the first to score, with a pass from Frank Marsalek to end Joe Mikulewicz, who trotted across the goal line. For the second time Don Kraus blocked the PAT, using his head. As if sparked by some unseen force, the Maroon and White charged down the field to the 7 yard stripe from whence Amico toted the pigskin to score the last tally of the game. The second half found the two squads in a nip and tuck battle all the way till the final gun. In the final seconds, Watson of St. Francis attempted a field goal but was thrown to the turf by big Frank Abbarno and Jim Dwyer. Backheld: Buscaglia, Zacher, Amico, Brucato Line: Allen, Dwyer, Waldmiller, Coppola, McNally, Abbarno, Beacharn. Coach Schiavone with Manager Murphy
