Uncoverfne flashing attack that
proved beWildering to North Carolina
A. and NJ. Georgetown won out yester-
day at the Hilltop before the largest
crowd of the season by q score of 81
to 6.
With the star backfield of Gilroy,
Wall, McQuade and Maloney working
in perfect form behind a husky. fast
charging line. the result of the game
was never in doubt.
The visitors lone score came In the
last half. McMurry intercepted
forward pass in the middle of the
field and raced to the shadow of the
goaiposts before being overtaken. Two
savage plunges at the center of the
Blue and Gray line were made without
appreciate gain. but Lee. on the third
attempt. hurled himself over the low
charging Hilltop forwards for a touch
down.
G. o. offense Versatile.
The offense of Exendine's charges
varied from old line-bucking tactics to
the newest innovations in the way of
forward passes. The Georgetown line
men opened vast gaps in their OPP
ponents' line through which the backs
swept for substantial gains. The Hill
top forwards. who put up but a medi-
OGRE exhibition against the Navy at
the beginning of the season. showed
the results of good training under
their Indian coach and performed in
a manner that invited favorable COM
parison with the star line of last sea-
son.
Johnny Gilroy, whose performances
during the past two seasons stamp
him as capable claimant for all
American honors, sprinted across the
Aggies' line for three touchdowns, and
in eight attempts for goals from touch
down booted the pigskin across seven
times. His contribution to the score
was 25 points. Time after time he
raced around the visitors hanks for
gains ranging from 10 to SO yards,
or, looping through hole in the line,
uncovered a burst OF speed that car
ried him through a broken field for
big gains. His running, which fire.
uuently brought the Hilltop rooters to
their feet, has not been equaied since
the days of Harry Costello.
Whalen in Limelight.

ed some of the features Of the Dart
mouth and Fordham victories. made
three touchdowns after pulling down
long forward passes. Together with
Cusack, at the other flank. he made many
from Gilroy. He scored one touch
down after blocking an Aggie punt.
Cusack played fast game on the
other flank. and was especially forinid-
able on defense.
wall and McQuade also furnished
sterling exhibitions. Wall seemed i'm
possible to stop. His biggest gains
we're made through broken fields after
crashing through the line. Frequently
it appeared that he was buried under
a mass of crimson jerseyed tacklerS.
but he inva riably extricated himself and
tore off additional gains before being
downed His work on defense was re-
sponsible for the sudden smotherlng
of many of the Aggies' plays. McQuade

another years experience he will prove
a dangerous contender for honors with
Gilroy He is all excellent broken field
runner. possesses plenty OF speed. and
frequently brought bursts of frenzied
cheering from the Blue and Gray
stands in his dashes around the hanks
