both of whom were out for o week
with leg injuries.
Kaufman and Yurwitz, who began
climbing the ladder of foot ball fame
while members Of Roosevelt Highs
eleven in New York City, form the
best passing combination on the Co
lonial squad. 1t was sensational
catch by Yurwitz of a heave tossed
by his pal that gave G. W. its lone
score against Rice at Houston three
weeks ago.
Their availability means much to
@. WIS chances against West Vir-

combination of its own in Kelly Moan,
halfback. and Babe Barna, end. These
two have completed six touchdown
tosses this year.

Keeps Up Air Tactics.

TWO weeks ago the Terrors met
Albright at Reading and, when the
smoke of the battle had cleared away
and the statisticians had summed up,
it was found that of the 43 plays
called by Coach Charley Haven's team
80 were through the air.
The game between Western Mary
land and Boston College at Boston
last Saturday brought no letdown in
the number of aerials tossed by the
Green Terrors. Forty plays were run
by the Terror eleven; 81 were for
wards and were laterals.
So with these statistics before him.
