6. U. Doesn't Appreciate
ORourke's 2-Point Gift
BY JOHN LARDNER,

Special Correspondent of The Star.
NEW YORK, Nov 1e-Midweek
football notes, or, how escaped
from Devils Island:
The football player of the week is
Mr.. Charles O'Rourke of Boston
College, who turned in the seasons
longest run from scrimmage, $50
yards, against Georgetown Saturday.
Breaking away from the antiquated
tradition of running forward, Mr..
ORourke ran from side to side, like
burglar studying the wall of a
house.
1 base my figures on the fact that
Mr.. O'ROurke, q fast man, can run
100 yards in 10 seconds. He spent 25
seconds running from port to star
board and back in his own end zone
and since he was travelling at full
speed all the time I estimate that he
covered $50 yards, or upward OF an
eighth of mile.
ORourke's great run scored two
points for Georgetown, but I under
stand that Georgetown officials have
decided not to build a statue to
ORourke in appreciation. In fact,
there is some disposition in George
town circles to regard O'Rourke as
bounder. That's life.

Smith Was Trifle Hozy
About Other Scores

When making intentional safeties
or any other kind, for that matter
"a player should know what the
score is. I am reminded in this con-
nection of a player on one of Mr.
Robert Zuppke's Illinois teams who
was sitting on the bench among the
other substitutes, gazing blankly at
the sky, with his chin in his hands.
His attitude of stupor irritated Mr..
Zuppke.
SMITH snapped the coach. do
you know what the score is?"
"In this game? Why, yes. coach"
replied the athlete, withdrawing
from his reverie with an effort. But
I can't give you any out-oftovn
scores"

On the basis of comparative rec

Little Generals have won five games
