Here, with the Eagles expecting
Castiglia to hit the line, Quarter
back McFadden gambled again. On
a triple reverse. with the ball pass
ing from Koshlap to Ghecas to Nc
Fadden. the Hoyas scored and after
Lilo missed the point they were
ahead, 1913.
Three plays later, not counting
the kickoff. Boston was ahead again.
Starting from their 33, the Eagles
moved as O'Rourke passed to Toczy-
lowski, who reached Georgetown's
As A second pass was incomplete
and then came the pass from
O'Rourke to Maznicki. 1t was a
play which caught the Hoyas sec
ondary flatfooted and Maznicki
after his 30-yard jaunt from the
point of receiving the pass, crossed
the goal line standing up. ORourke
tried to pass for the extra point but
1t was grounded.
Georgetown had little more than
II minutes in which to make up that
1916 deficit. They used Kopcik's
fine punting to advantage during
the remainder of the third period.
Largely through this medium the
Hoyas got as far as Boston's A,
on first down, but after Koshlap
had gained 7 yards he lost 13 and
then, trying long pass, he watched
Maznicki intercept it in the first
play of the last quarter

Of French credits In the u. S. for
this purpose and that first orders

Large quantities Of flour. cod

chants are awaiting eagerly the
early arrival OF freighter OF the

These first orders appear to
foreshadow greatly increased trade
between the U. S. and the French
Antilles possessions. Officials here
today evidenced readiness to boost
this trade, pointing out that the

There is a privately-owned air
