They played four games and lost three. In their first game the MI-luskies pups met the Marian- apolis Prep team and were able to hold them to twelve points although the visitors favored a unique style of play which at times closely resembled a trench fight. Molloy and Keish were casualties. - The next week saw the yearling's only victory as they out- played and outscored the Springfield Junior gymnasts in a wide open game, 18-0. In the first quarter Scussel snared a 30-yard pass from Harris to set up the score and then tallied on an end sweep. In the second quarter Harris ran 60 yards on an intercepted pass then bucked five yards to score. On October 26, the confident White-men traveled to Prov- idence to be treated to a most artistic and enthusiastic drubb- ing at the paws of the Brown cubs, 33-0. On Homecoming day the Rhody Ramlets eked out a 7-6 victory. Harris, kicking kept the ball in the Wooly one's territory most of the lgameu. In the third quarter, Zorn in- tercepted a pass and marched 20 yards to the Kingstonians' doorstep and Scussel smashed over for the score. The con- version failed by a few feet. For the rest of the morning, the air was thick with Harris' passes to Beck but they failed to make any impression. I ' Despite what seemed to be a disappointing season, Coach Van Bibber is looking forward to welcoming a group of boys who have shown plenty of iight and have given promise of rapid improvement onto next year's varsity.

Fuquais varsity cross country squads have lost only two dual meets in three years. - In the first meet, Northeastern provided unexpectedly stiff competition, when they clung to the first positions right up until the end of the race when I.ou Brunetti, Charley Rob- bins, Bill Herold, Captain Bob Wheaton, and newcomer Win Hubbard moved up enough to Win the meet, 23 to 32. After the Northeastern uscaren the boys Went to town on the Yale team, when they trampled them under for the second straight year by a near perfect score-17 to 41. Bob Wheaton, the captain, broke the former Yale course record by seven sec- onds in winning the race by a substantial margin. ' On the same day, another team of Ivanis boys were ad- ministering a sound beating to Worcester Tech, by a score of 20 to 35. This was the first time in the annals of New England Cross Country that two regularly scheduled oppo- nents were beaten on the same day by a divided team. An- other high spot in the season was marked when the whole team-seven men-crossed the finish line together in a tri- angular meet against Boston University and Tufts. The bubble of invincibility about the uHusliies was ex- ploded by the high-flying Rhode Island Harriers in a meet at Storrs, heralded correctly as a New England Meet pre- view. Only the truly brilliant running of Captain Bob Wheat- on avertedpa complete sweep as Rhody won 17 to 41.
