ROCK HILL, G TO 0
Beats Catholic University in
Well Played Game.
FuccY IS THE STAR
Visiting Quarterback Does Great
Work All Through the
Game.

Rock Hill Colleges fast little foot ball
team did not have quite as easy time in
defeating Catholic University yesterday
as it expected to. the best it could do
being one lone touchdown and goal,
the game ending with to o score in
favor of the boys from Ellicott City. Rock
Hill went into the game confident of
winning by large score, as it did last
year, when Catholic University was TRIM
med by the score of "a to O.
Catholic University did not, expect to
lose yesterday, but 1t can consider itself
lucky in being able to Hold down its old
rivals to such a small score. Rock Hill
has a crack team that is well coached
and that it could not score more touch
downs than it did was big surprise to
many. Catholic University has good
enough material for a better team than
it now boasts of. but it has not been
properly coached. With a little more
training it could have held Rock Hill
down without score.
The Brook.anders had better looking
lineup to start the game yesterday than
they did last Saturday, but they did not
play nearly as good game. Their line was
weak and Rock Hill plowed through 1t
though, did not amount to much, as they
were generally made in it's own ter
ritory, and when it did get the ball any
where near the Brooklanders' goal, the
latter held them for downs.
Presents Stonewall Line.
Rock Hill presented stonewal line
that could not be broken, and Catholic
University could not get a man through
it. The Brooklanders made all Their
gains on end runs and onside kicks.
Catholic University did not try any new
tricks, depending entirely on the rold
style play.
To Corbett the fast little right end
for Rock Hill. should go the credit for
breaking up Catholic University's inter-
ference. Time and again this youngster
tore through the Brooklanders' line and
broke up its interference in such a man
ned that it bewildered everybody.
Rock Hills victory. though, belongs to
Capt Fuccy, who played quarterback.
This youngster was the whole show.
and despite the fact that he was nearly
all bandages. his work was really re-
markable. Besides running the team he
did all the punting and most Of the run
ming. He showed up strong in catching
punts and carrying the ball back for
big gains. Starting the game with a
badly wrenched wrist. he was hardly in
IT five minutes before his head was
split open back Of his ear. With his
head in bandages ne went in and finished
the game, although he was knocked out
half dozen times after this.
; The visitors scored their only touch
down in the first quarter After a series
of line plunges by Hopkins and Fuccy.
the former carried the oval over the line
for a touchdown. Fuccy then showed
remarkable skill as kicker by booting
the ball over the bar for goal.
Like the game Of last Saturday there
was great deal of wranagling over
practically nothing. Referee Crafts. the
former George Washington star. was
equal to the occasion, and threatened the
kickers with eviction II they did not keep
quite. which brought about good results.
AS it was, one player was put out of the
game when he tried to get into an argu-
ment with the referee Hinchman was the
player and his place was filled by Schaill.
Mcdonnell and Lynch were the star
players for Catholic University The
former made several end runs that net
ted his team good gains, but his plung-
ing into the line did not amount to any
thing. Lynch did most Of the tackling
for his team, and on several occasions
he got his man after his teammates had
failed.
Neither tea mdid anything in the way
Of big gains during the last two quar-
ters. In these sessions there was q
good deal of punting on both Sides
however neither team had chance
for touchdown.
Both teams were frequently penaiized
during the game for all sorts or OF
lenses. Rock Hill was the worst Of
fender, being penalized six times dur
ing the battle, three times In the nrst
in the second half. Catholic Univer-
sity was penaIized once in the first
and three times during the second hair.
Both sides did a good deal OF fumbling
