George Washington and Catholic

until today when Coaches Robb and

the first half they were on the losing

against Gallaudet. The Hatchetites
presented several cripples for the Ken

to produce anything in the way Of
scores.
Both teams are pretty well recover.

There Is little to choose between the
elevens on their records this season.
Against stronger teams the Brook.

spite their failure to win games. The
Hatch etites have rolled up some size

Syracuse wants a post-season grid

Cornell and Syracuse faced each
