block for George Washing
tons eleven in its coming out party
last night at Griffith Stadium but
with a mighty surge that produced
two touchdowns in the third period
the Buff overcame its learning and
game Mount st. Mary's outfit to
win. 1910.
A preseason Maryland-Mount ST
Marys practice scrimmage was an
accessory before the fact because it
was the inaccurate gauge by which
the EmmitSburg squad was measured
and found wanting in everything but
the old college try. Of that work.
out G.. w. figured to win from here
to there. but for two periods the
Mount was as unyielding as the rock
Of its native Blue Ridge hills and for
two more 1t was as annoying as II
small boys toting b. b. guns.
The G. WIS had read Of feeble,
class B team at the Mount and were
prepared to deal eloquently with
same but when Coach Jim Draper
sent a silky. smart and aggressive
machine into action it changed the
battles entire complexion. Instead
of the customary opening game rout
it developed into a struggle OF mid
season proportions with the Colon
ials obliged to muster all their
strength for the touchdown drives.
The visitors produced a smart
hard-to-catch ball carrier and
kicker in Bill Boyle who chalked up
the longest gains Of the evening
Is. II and 10 yards. The Buff
couldn't remember reading about
Bowie in the Maryland scrimmage
and figured he must have been a
sleeper but when the entire visiting
team began to click G. w. decided
the Terps must have met another
team.
Frank De Bottis. Jim Ellis and Pat
Rogan performed brilliantly in the
line and largely were responsible for
stalling the Colonials in the first
half.
Bill Reinhart. G. w coach, de-
livered a fiery Grafton between
halves and the effect of his unvarn-
ished words was noticeable immedi-
ately after the second period got
So was a chunky. light

Batson who put the 60 in both goal
ward marches. BatSon. with lift
from Walt Fedora here and there,
led his mates 50 yards to their first
score with a bewildering series OF
line smashes and end runs starting
with a 21-yard gallop to the visitors
2l-yard line.
Fedora got the first touchdown but
Batson took the ball over the second
time. eliminating a 65-yard march
with a wide sweep to the left on
which he was forced to outrun his
own interference as we'll as the
Mounts secondary defense.
While the score is nothing to write
home about and George Washington
was slow in getting started don't sell
the Colonials short Ed Robins, the
new right tackle: Frank August. re-
placing Bob Nowaskey at left end;
Mike Monchlovich, center: Eddie
and Tim Grady are few
of those who did all right and who
undoubtedly will improve as the sea-
son progresses. The game did the
squad more good than harm and
Reinhart was more. than willing to
settle for two touchdowns If 1t
taught his men a lesson.
Henceforth, however, newspapers
are barred at the varsity house un-
less they portray G. w. opponents
as prototypes Of An-America COM
