the visitors were penaliZed for clip

towards Hauber. OF Delaware, who
was responsible for the calling Of all
the penalties 81. JOe's Prep lost 75
yards IN the first haif because OF these
penalties
Coach Miller. after the game. e1-
pressed himself as being very much
dissatisfied with the officials. ''IIelnie"
expected 10 win the game by a ma
jorlty OF cofnters exceeding the half
century mark. The victory by only
one touchdown was a big blow 10
l"IIein.e.' who had expected 70 win by

made in the third period by straight
