25-yard line. Then, with a deS-
perate lunge, he shook himself clear
of his tormentors, leaped in the
air, and let fly. The ball dropped
into Heferle's arms as he turned
around, and he went on for the
touchdown that made the final
score 13 to IL.
The other Duquesne touchdown
was of Brumbaugh's making too.
With his club behind IL to 0, he
went to work in the second period
and almost single handedly carried
the ball 81 yards for score. In
this drive he tore the Mississippi
line apart. And at the tackles and
guards, too. The boys simply could
Mt stop him. They would hit him
at the line of scrimmage and he
would drag them five and six yards
before going down.
Brumbaugh was not only giant
on offense; he was equally potent
at defense, making more than his
share of tackles and doing great
job at pass defense. He outshone
Mike Basfak, Duquesne's famed
center, which was no mean task,
for Mike, once he quit reading his
newspapers clippings in the first
period was a holy terror.

While eastern football fans and
experts are lauding the two Pitts
burgh teams vino pulled out victor
les in bowl contests on New Years
day, Pittsburgh Panthers in the
Rose Bowl and Duquesne in the
Orange Bowl, let's take glimpse
at the returning regulars who will
be back on the rosters of the two
powerful squads next season.
Pitts prospects for a stronger
team next season are very bright
because only three of the regulars
will be lost by graduation. Duques-
ne, Pitts only conqueror, will lose
only four varsity men but have
more than enough capable reserves
Waiting to move up into the posi-
ions.
The most important losses from
he Panther Roster will be halfback
lobby Larue, who starred in the
POSE Bowl game against Washing
ION, Bill Glassford guard, and ALI
American tackle Ayerill Daniel.
Harold Stebbins, the man who
scored the touchdown that beat
Ohio State, will ably fill the shoes
of Bobby Larue Goldberg of course
i'll be back at the other half and
-tapulis and Patrick alternating full
backs and Nicholson and Chicker-
20 alternating quarlerbacks will be
N hand for the 1887 Pitt squad.
Pitt has two veteran centerS, a
voalth of ends and four good reserve
yards to take turns at the vacated
gl5rd spot
Ij1lnuesne will lose nine seniors
but only two of these men are
instsvs on the club. The Dukes
sigyest loss will be Captain Mike
8asrak who was the backbone of
he Duquesne line which did not
srnit touchdown by rushing all
season.
Bovd Brumbaugh, triple threat
.3uouesne back. will be in the start
ag lineup again next season so the
.sr'Efield worries of the Dukes are
!. fisht.
srennjs stars from all sections OF
f.e United States will begin their
rauaigns Monday to try to land a
