COSTELLO Is THE STAR
BY WILLIAM PEET.

Georgetown, with much light
er team, and on a soggy, wet grid
iron, defeated the Medical College
of Virginia here yesterday, 21 to 0,
scoring two touchdowns in each of
the first two periods and one
touchdown in the third quarter.
Only twice during the entire
game could the visitors make first
down, and they were completely
outclassed in every position except
at left tackle, where Walker, for
mer Minnesota star, held forth.

towns easy three-touchdown vic
tory, it must be said that the Rich
mond Collegians were greatly
overrated, for, had the wearers of
the Blue and Gray taken advan-
tage of every opportunity, and had
better judgment been used in di-
recting plays, three more touch
downs could have been added
without much trouble.

had nothing that would cause trouble
to any of the smaller local colleges. Gal
