The general class, McAlwee said, is the highest in the history of the league. Of more moment than the heavy barrage of Freschi, who led the cir- cuit two seasons ago, is the rolling of & new star, Carl Gochenour, tall Arcadian, who is flashing an average | of 126 for 15 strings.

Bill Krauss, Perce Wolfe and Dutch Newman are above 123, Gene Hargett is the top shooter of the Tru-Blus.

OE HARRISON, Regal Neon Sign's perennial contender for high aver- age, is serving notice on his rivals with 133-1 for nine games, having marked up sets of 398, 398 and 402.

Kaufman, subbing for Samson, kicked from behind his own goal after losing three yards on a plunge. Kilgrow carried his short punt to G. W.’s 32 and from there the Tide banged away. It was Kilgrow, Holm and George Zivich. They smashed the center, slanted off tackle and skirted the ends to reach the Colonials’ 7T-yard line. Here the weary G. W.'s called time and were penalized 5 yards for too much time out. It was easy for Kil- grow to slither through the mud to score from two yards away. With the resumption of play George ‘Washington took the kick-off and Sampson, from his own 31, opened an | aerial attack. A touchdown resulted | ~for 'Bama.

And, thereafter, it ‘was a story of futility. With Kaufman as the trigger man, G. W. filled the air with passes in a final desperate bid to score. For more than three periods the Colonials’ attack had been negligible. They gained only 16 yards all day by rush- ing, but late in the game 'Bama was charged with interfering with Re- celver Art Nowaskey and G. W. was given a first down on the Tide's 40. Bruce Mahan then grabbed a pass to reach Alabama's 22, which rep- resented G. W.'s peak in offense. On last down Kaufman tried to pass over the line, but End Bob Faris, the in- tended receiver, was smothered by the ’Bama secondary and that bid went for naught. With only seconds remaining to play, Bogdan Nicksick of G. W. re- covered an enemy fumble in midfield, but after Faris took a long pass from Kaufman he tried an unsuccessful lateral. 'Bama retrieved it and a moment later it was over. COLBY GETS DRUBBING.

A crowd of 10,000 rain-chilled home- coming alumni witnessed the defeat, in which Colgate’s Halfback Johnny Long was the goat and later the hero in a Red Raider rally that came close, but failed to save the home-town lads from a whitewashing.
