Victors HOYA SUBS CRUSH SHEMANDOAH, 70 Score 40 Points in First Half Easily, Then Cut Last Two Quarters. BY FRANCIS E. STAN, ITTLE Shenandosh College, down from the rolling hills of Virginia, marched its ill-pre- pared foot ball outfit to the chopping block at Griffith Stadium Yesterday, to be promptly and decl- sively mowed down, 47 to 0, by the bigger, faster and more adept war- riors of Georgetown, It was tossing gheep to the wolves again and rematching Uszcudun and Joe Louis. Georgetown gallantly tried to pull its punches by leaving the first-string Hoyas on the bench, but finally was forced to resort to cutting the last two periods almost in half. ‘This undoubtedly earned the everlast- ing gratitude of the Shenandoahs. To the credit of the Hormets, it must be stated that they fought, but in the company of the Hilltoppers they were outclassed. When the first period ended the Georgetowns were discovered to have averaged almost two points per minute, holding a 27- t0-0 lead. At the half the count was 40-0. The final two periods seemed 80 short it was doubtful if a guy in a foot ball suit could go the length ©of the field In that space of time. Hoyas Get Dizzy Scoring. JEVERYTHING that did not work against New York University a ‘week ago worked for the Hilltoppers Yesterday. Before three minutes had passed a guard named Bob O'Brien recovered a Hornet fumble on Shen- andoah’s 8-yard line. On two playé the Hoyas crossed the goal line, with ‘Meglen doing the ball carrying. Two minutes later it was the same story. Immediately after receiving the kick-off, the Hornets attempted a lateral, but Ed Bodine, a reserve Georgetown end, picked it out of the air and raced 29 yards for a touch- ‘down. The third touchdown in the Hill- #toppers' public workout was the best to watch. Starting in midfield Quar- ‘terback Elmer Moulin darted off- ‘tackle for 9 yards and, as he was tackled, he flipped a lateral to Half- back Charlie Wychunas, who dashed the remaining distance. A pass, /Moulin to Don Gibeau, together with » flashy piece of broken-field running by the receiver, brought the fourth touchdown of the opening period. The entire play negotiated 43 yards. ‘The Hoyas were little less heartless in the second period, although the »Hornets brought the first of ‘he two touchdowns on themselves. Halfback Mitrous dropped a long punt from Peanuts Sheeran and when the ball Tolled away it was pounced upon by «Bob Martin, a reserve lineman, on Shenandoah’s 4-yard line. Alex Ur- banski, sub back, carried it over on the second try. One First Down for Hornets. A BLOCKED kick by Wilamowski of the Hornets paved the way for the other Georgetown score in the second period. Three bulky George- towners loomed in front of the ball, batted it down and recovered it for Urbanski to throw, a moment later, to Frank Donahue for a touchdown. The final score of the game came later in the third period when Johnny Riofski, a lineman, intercepted a pass by Wilamowski on Shenandoah’s 40- yard stripe and raced across the goal line untouched. The Hornets, beaten by Catholic University last month by an 81-to-0 score, could do little against the rock- ribbed Hoya line. They made only a single first down and that came as & result of a 15-yard penalty against Georgetown for unnecessary rough- hess. The Hoyas, on the other hand, ade 13 first downs. All the statistics were lop-sided, ‘Wwith Georgetown gaining 176 yards by rushing, as against 21, completing five of nine passes for a total gain of 108 yards, as against the “0” achieved by Shenandoah because of completing none of four tries. G. U. made four fumbles, but the Hornets topped them even at that, dropping the ball nine times. Line-ups and Summary. Georgetown -gavadine -Brady Hill . _Bodine. Wychu- as.

I's Flying Squadron came through with a story-book finish to defeat the University of Virginia, 12 to 6. Two sophomores, Andy Trzeciak and Doc Saunders, collaborated to snatch victory from the gallant Cavaliers in the last half minute of play in the spectacular battle on Alumni Field. “Handy Andy” passed 15 yards to Saunders, who stepped over the goal line with the winning points. Saunders also scored V. M.

Left End Dick Dubois, one of the hardest fighting members of the little Virginia team, was taken out of the game in the third period. He had played a bang-up game, but outside of a smattering of applause no attention was paid him. The reason he was removed by Coach Curb Hill of Shenandoah was that while Dubois was taking his beating on the gridiron a wire from his Home in Charleston, W. Va., carried the news to the sta- dium that Dubois’ mother had died earlier in the afternoon. CHEAP AT $16.50 Deacon’s Soft-Toed Kicking Shoes Help Colorado College.

WILSON TOPPLED BY BLUES, 21106 Sheer Power Gets Kendall Green Team Its First Win of Season. HEER power gave Gallaudet its first foot ball victory of the sea- son yesterday when a light, but spirited, Wilson Teachers’ Col« lege eleven was overpowered at Ken- dall Green by a score of 27-6. The ‘Teachers were not without their balm, however, as those six points repre- sented the first touchdown they had scored this Fall. Outweighed nearly 20 pounds to the man, Wilson's line was rent asunder by the ponderous Blue forwards, who opened gaping holes through which their three midget backs—Race Drake, Dan Long and Conley Akin—and their one big pile-driver. Al Hoffmeister— raced to three touchdowns in the second quarter and a fourth in the third. The Teachers produced a strong de- fense at the beginning and finished with one just as air-tight, holding their foes scoreless in both the first and last | periods. And when Phil Winter took Preston Newton's pass for their lone touchdown in the last few minutes of play, the 150 Wilson supporters felt they had not traveled to Kendall Green in vain, i a receiver for a lateral, and flipped a lazy toss ahead of Halfback Charlie Wychunas, who camg up fast, grabbed the ball and raced 45 remaining yards for Georgetown’s third touchdown in the —Star Staff Photo by John Mueller, opening period, EARLY DRIVE TOPS BRIDGEWATER, 74 Hansborough’s Conversion After Treharne’s Plunge Decides Issue.

The first - quarter touchdown was made by Treharne with a plunge after the Eagles of Washington had stead- ily advanced from midfield. Hans- borough’s placement was good for the point that won. Jesse Riggleman, Bridgewater half- back, provided the game's greatest thrill when he dashed 50 yards for Bridgewater's touchdown in the sec- ond quarter. His drop-kick attempt was blocked. Riggleman had perfect blocking on the play and after he rounded the end had little difficulty in negotiating the remaining distance to the goal. Paul' Campbell had carried the ball 20 yards on the previous play. A staunch Bridgewater defense kept American U. away from the goal line after the first quarter, although the Eagles amassed considerable yardage from the running of Howard, Bart- lett and Winslow and the accurate passes to Brown.

BRIDG!WAm had a scoring chance in the first quarter when an American U. fumble was recovered by Beaseley on the 35-yard line, but ‘Treharne ended the Bridgewater ad- vance by intercepting a pass.

Champions Bewilder Bisons in Third-Period Scoring Spree. IVE-TIME champions of the Colored Intercollegiate Associ- ation, Morgan College’s foot ball team swamped Howard, 40 to 0, yesterday at the Howard Uni- versity stadium with one of the neat- est exhibitions of ball-carrying and lateral passing ever demonstrated here by a colored eleven. Scoreless in the first quarter, and limited to one touchdown in the sec- ond and fourth, the Baltimoreans packed most of their punch into the third period, running up four 6-point- ers and making good on three conversions. Twice working & tricky triple-lat- eral play, the trio of Wild Bill Samp- son, Bill Lampkins and Dick Sowell completely bewildered the Bisons as they ran up their 27 points. Most of the visitors' ground-gaining was achieved through the air as they only out gained Howard 117 to 107 yards from scrimmage. First downs found Morgan ahead, 13 to 6. Early in the game Howard made one threat to score on the champs, a | sustained drive from midfield placing the ball on Morgan's 10-yard line.
