CAPT. MORRIS.
BEST FOR
HOYAS
By JOE HOLMAN
"a milliOn-dOllar backfield
and a line that's not 30 hOt!"

"a miIliOn-dOlIar backfield
and a line that's not 80 hOt!"
This was fans size-up Of
GEORGETOWN University's football
team as some 10000 spectators
filed out Of Griffith Stadium last
night.
He wasn't far wrong. And Cor
that reason the excellent all
around defensive play Of Capt.
Johnny Morris and Mutt DubofskJ
was all the more conspicuous as
Tommy Mills Hoyas bowed to
West Virginia's Mountaineers, IA
to z.
Johnny, at center, warmed the
hearts of graduate members at
tending this colorful homecoming
spectacle. Taking out would-be
tacklers and opening UP interfer-
euce-it was all the same to
Morris. He was here, there and
everywhere, showing Claude
Grigsby alertness and brilliance
throughout the pastime.
Dubofsky played his usual
game, being steadineSs per.
sonified in the pinches and .
mighty helpful young fellow
at all times.
While most of the spotlight
was centered around Eddie Bart
rug, West Virginia halfback and
triple threat man extraordinary,
the Mountaineers have their two
guards to thank for the outcome.
Capt. Bob Gordon, a red-halred
husky, was q veritable thunder
bolt all the way as was his run
ming mate Brick Lewis. Time
and again these murderous for
wards single-handedly. crushed
Georgetown rallies and also fea-
tured extensively, opening holes in
Georgetown's defense when they
meant most.
Gordon also coined his
teams first touchdown in the
initial period when he recOv-
cred q West Virginia punt
that struck Johnny Scalzi
over GeOregtOwn's goal line.
From the standpoint Of straight
football Georgetown completely
outplayed its opponent, rolling
UP IA first downs while the
Mountaineers were compiling
seven.
Georgetown's line played fair
defensive ball, but left much to be
desired extensively. Even so the
plunging and broken field run
ming of Johnny Scalzi. Emile Bo-
eek and Ed Leary enabled the
Blue and Gray to penetrate West
r Virginia's defense frequently
that is until the Gordon-LewiS duo
got going.
Some mighty punting by
Bartrug set the stage for
West Virginia's first period
count. Driving into HOya ter
ritOry, Bartrug sent punt to
Scalzi, who was posted on his
own 1.yard line.
Scalzi prepared to block a West
Virginia man charging in to
down the ball on Georgetown's
one-foot line, but as he did so
the leather struck him and was
recovered by Gordon over the
) resident goal for a touchdown.
Bartrug place kicked the point.
The Hoyas carried the battle
to West Virginia thereafter until
intermission, peeling off four sue
cessive first downs during a sec.
ond quarter drive before falling
short on a passing attack deep in
West Virginia territory.
, A rally that got under way
late in the third semester re-
suited i'm q fOurth-periCd
MOuntaineer tOuc h down
when Bartrug'S ball running
and long aerial to SOrtet put
the ball on GeOrgetOwn's
3-yard mark. Bartrug drove
off tackle for the score and
added the point with another
placement.
Johnny Bozek, substituted for
MaczeeS midway in the final
=, quarter, headed a parade that
wound up in Georgetown's only
touchdown. Alternating a pass
ing and running attack, Johnny
was largely instrumental in push
. ing the leather to the enemy's
6-yard mark. There Bozek fum-
bled but Georgetown recovered.
Then it was that Scalzi passed
to p. Mooney for six points.
