Sunday was no day Of rest for halt
a dozen ardent supporters OF the
Navy football team who painted

the mistake of lingering to admire
their work.
Caught early yesterday before the

entire day removing all traces OF
their handiwork from the numerous
campus structures.

Hageriy Credits Aides
And Entire Team for
Hoyas' Good Year

Modestly, as always. Coach Jacs
Hagerty isn't taking all the bows fol
Georgetown's successful football
season. 1t was a good year for the
Hoyas, y'know. They finished with
.five wins in eight games, and shoulc
have had 6-and-2 record, but fol
a letdown in the last few minutes
of the Boston College game That
would have made" the season for
them. Still and all, i. was good
year, especially when the experts
thought Hagerty would be lucky to
win two games.
Hagerty deserves credit for the
splendid job he did in molding a
wide variety of players into a smooth
eleven. He had capable staff in
George Murtagh, Mush Dubofsky,
Hap Hardell. Bill wixted and Joe
McFadden, and in summing up he
gave them due credit for their work.
Praises Bus Werder.
"But the man who was most re-
sponsible for our success was Bus
Werder," Hagerty added. "He was
the steadying influence in the line,
the boy we entrusted our defense to,
and an i1spirational leader. He
was to this team what McFadden
was to our '39 and 40 teams. With
out Bus it would have been a much
tougher season and ] don't know
whether we would have made Gut as
well as we did"
Hagerty gave each of his boys a
pat on the back in summing up the
season. Len Bonforte, he revealed,
played a role in the backfleld SINH
lar to the one Werder had In the
line. He was going to let Bonforte
call the plays at one stage in the
campaign, but Len preferred to
leave that chore to the quarter
backs. Instead, Bontforte coun-
selled the signal-callers when diff
cult situations arose and the plan
worked very well.
Babe Baranowski'S work in step
ping into tough quarterback spot
when Elmer Raba was injured was
one of the few good breaks the
Hoyas got. Another was the rapid
improvement of Tommy Graham, a
"B" squad player, who came along
like fire horse after breaking into
the lineup against st. Louis. But
Hagerty didn't miss boy as he
went down the line, Lou Robustelli,
Jim Arnsberg, Vic Banonis, Larry
Koncelik, George Benigni, well, all
of them, came in for a word Of
praise.
Turning Point In Game.
Turning point of the New York
U. game, Hagerty pointed out, was
in the final period when Tom
Capoz.o,,ii,s punt was ruled out OF
bounds on Georgetown's 1-yard line.
It was tight spot and Lou Sur
man was sent in to punt. But at
that point the Violet made sub
stitution, and the delay cost it 5
precious yards and allowed George
town to work out of the hole.
Surman, incidentally, played the
entire game with an ankle swollen
twice its normal size.
"And him my best kicker" Hag-
erty reminded. "He didn't say
word about it until after the game.
When asked why, he merely
shrugged and. said, TT didn't make
any difference, coach, 1t wasn't my
kicking foot Can you match that?"
Frankly. no. i. F. A.
