AND WALL STAR

ST Louis, Mo-, Nov. 25.-Georgetown
University crushed St. Louis University,
30 to 0. this afternoon. II was mas
sacre all the way through. st. Louis
never having the ghost of a chance and
never coming near scoring. When st.
Louis did get the ball. she was forced to
kick right away to keep from being
pushed over the line for a safety.
Johnny Gilroy and Pete Wall were the
individual stars of the game, going over
the line time after time for touchdowns
and showing the 1850 that braved the
rain football tricks never before seen N
st. Louis.
Wall went around left end for a touch
down seven minutes after play started
and Georgetown kept on scoring at In
teryals of every few minutes. The team
rolled up q in the first quarter, q in the
second, 20 in the third and IS in the
fourth.
Any attempt to tell how the touch
downs were made would be a well-nigh
endless repetition of line plunges by GIL
roy and Wall and touchdowns by the
same pair. The defense of St. Louis re-
sembIed a piece of tissue paper against
their attacks.
In the second quarter Gilroy ran s.
yards on three straight plays and in this
same quarter Maloney grabbed Kick
on MS own JJ-ydIu line anu ran bhi oush
the entire st. Louis team for a touch
down.
Georgetown used open play throughout,
having all kinds of luck with the for
ward pass. triple passes and fake plays.
The nearest ST. Louis ever was able
to get the ball to the Georgetown goal
was the IO-yard line in the second quar-
ter. Thomas kick did this. Gilroy grab
bed the ball and made his three runs
for S. yards.
Because of the rain. the game drew
the poorest Thanksgiving crowd ever
known in the history of St Louis foot
ball. Georgetown did not suffer from the
slim attendance as il was given 5000
guarantee, but the none-to-healthy war
chest of st Louis will be pretty well
cleaned out when the check for the guar
