In Final Period
C|inch Verdict
Miscues Prove Costly
To CoIoniuIs After
Dominating Ploy
BY Lewis r. Atchison

up the most points yesterday at
.Griffith Stadium, where the Hoyas
tailed two quick touchdowns In the
final period to gain an 1876 victory.
A gathering of 1856 partisan
fans saw the underdog Colonials
strike back and tie e.the score at s.
all early in the second period after
Georgetown linemen had blocked a
punt and recovered in the end zone
for the games initial, score. But
the one-two punch delivered by the
Hoyas in the final quarter complete
ly crushed the Coloniak. 1t was
the first game between the two
teams since 1912. j
The games complexion changed
with sudden, bewildering rapidity
in that closing peiod and when it
seemed that George Washington
was in command of the situation.
In less than q minute what had
been a close, bruising battle, was
transformed into landslide.
Fumble Proves Costly.
A few minutes earlier, George
Washington was headed for what
seemed to be a certain score when
its fortunes did an about face. In
almost less time than it takes to
describe 1t, the team that seemed
to be "in" found itself on the out
side looking in-unable to shake
the jinx that has left it without a
single victory in the 16-game series.
Johnny Shullenbarger. G.. W.'s
outstanding back, had shepherded
the team from midfield to George
towns 34-yard line, where he turned
Dick Koester loose on a tricky end
around play, working off of a re-
verse. The ball-carrier rocketed to
the 9-yard line and then collided
with an immovable object identified
as Len Bonforte. Koester fumbled
and Buddy Spiess recovered for
Georgetown.
Seconds later, G. w. was back
on its own 26-yard line after Lou
Surmans punt and 15-yard pen
atty for clipping. Again Shullen-
barger marshalled his mates to
midf1eld with pass to Koester. But
before he could throw the next one,
Jim Arneberg knocked him sprawl
ing and the resulting tumble was
recovered by Andy Roman.
Pass Results in Score.
On the first play Babe Baranow-
ski uncorked a 15-yard heave to
Surman, who, following excellent
blocking by AL Sarashevitz and other
teammates, weaved an additional
"a yards to score.
With less than 8 minutes of
time left G. w. elected to travel
by air, and the first play after the
kickoff was a short pass by Jack
Dobbins that landed in the willing
arms of the Hoyas' Len Bonforte
He went the necessary 27 yards to
pay dirt without being touched.
Georgetown stopped G. W.'s first
advance into its territory on the
7-yard line before getting the break
that resulted In its initial score.
After an exchange of kicks Frank
Cayallo fumbled and Fran Desmond
recovered for the Hoyas on G. w. IS
80. Joe Buell. Offset this by inter-
cepting Dave Baranowski's pass, but
holding penalty showed G. W.
back to its 8 and Georgetown's line
pushed it back to the S. Shullen-
barger tried to punt, but Tom Dolan
blocked the ball and Jim OKeefe
recovered in the end zone for the
score.
G. U. Formation Backfires.
Georgetown's spread formation
backf1red the first time it was un-
veiled and G. w. seized the oppor-
tunity to punch over its lone score.
Carl Butkus recovered Joe Muir
phys tumble on the Hoya 16, and
on fourth down Dick Koester passed
to Frank Close, who was all alone
in the end zone. It was deceptive
play, a reverse, end-around affair
that caught the Hoyas' snoozing.
1t was not spectacular game but
was a bruising engagement and a
few tempers both on the field and
in the stands matched the sutlry
atmosphere. Butkus of G. w. and
George Antonovsky and Brooke
Bryer of Georgetown were waved
to the sidelines in the closing min
utes for extracurricular use Of
knuckles.
Easily the outstanding feature
was the kecking of Georgetown's
Surman and G. WIS Shullenberger,
