the fourth period the Co.onials

yards in two grand efforts. The
period opened with George Wash

Miss 39.yard-line. Sampson ran
to the enemy % yard line, aided
by fine blocking, and on the next
play shot a pass to Bob Faris, who
stepped over the line all by him

the third period on the George
Washington q yard line, so the
total distance spanned IN the sus-
tained march was 73 yards, the
best Of the night.
It would be great If the order
OF fiction could be observed and
nave Sampson emerge from this
game as blamelesS as Galahad.
But alas, the charts of the game
must be followed and the truth
OF history must be preserved. In
