victory the first time it got its
hands on the ball, driving Sc

Doherty, hero of last years Har-
Dor Bowl triumph over Nevada,

Tom Clavin kicked the first Of
his three extra points.
Two Drives Halted.
Penn State struggled to even
the score. but Villanova halted

A pass interception by Jim Cau-
field set up Villanova's second
touchdown early in the third

The Georgetown team that up

a warm welcome on it's return
from Worcester. Mass. last night
although the student body was
so surprised at the victory that
it had a difficult time organizing

Kinder in Command.
Beaten three times in their last
four starts, the YankS rolled over
and played dead today before
Kinder's brilliant performance. He
did not allow more than one hit
an inning, struck out five and
walked only four. Only one of
the hits was for extra bases and
that was by Phil Rizzuto. He led
off the eighth with double, but
was left stranded.
Ed Lopat was the losing Yankee
pitcher. He was the first of %
enemy left-handers to go the route
at Fenway Park all season. The
Red Sox nicked him for two runs
in the second and Ted Williams
425-foot homer in the third. That
was all, but it was more than
enough.
Bobby Doerr shot a single to

BLACKSBURG, Va, Sept. "a
Maryland's football team sput-
tered and foundered for three
periods today, bucking an endless
succession of bad plays, fumbles
and penalties, before overcoming
Virginia Tech, "a to 7, for the
fourth straight year.
1t was rough, sloppy battle in
terrupted twice by fist fights on
the field and players on both sides
were banished. With a minute of
play left, Terrapens and Gobblers
mingled in a free-for-all that
caused some of the 10000 specta-
tors to rush onto the field, eager to
watch at close hand or join.
Virginia Tech was no match for
Maryland, but although the Old
Liners crossed the goal in the first
half three times they held mere
IT tie at intermission. and that
only by dint of a touchdown with
two minutes left.
Twice the Terps had touch
downs called back because of pen
alties. On another occasion they
were stopped inches from the goal
after a march of 79 yards, and
again they had a first down on
the Tech 4-yard line and failed
to score.
Terps Make Strong Finish.
Not until the final quarter did
Maryland's latent power flare.
The Terps rolled up three touch
downs, two on runs of So and 81
yards. They gained 237 yards
by rushing to only Al for Tech.
Neither team showed much in
the air.
Favored Maryland opened as if
it would be a romp. The Terps
took the first kickoff from their
20 to within six inches of the
v. P. I. goal, where the Gobblers
stopped Stan Lavine on a fourth
down quarterback sneak and
punted out.
The College Parkers struck back
swiftly. Johnny Idzik returned
the punt to v. P. rs 20 and on
the first play Lavine lateralled
to Capt. Fred Davis who passed
to Stan Karnash, Malyland's
other end. Karnash went across.

and the Terps penalized Is yards
for illegal use of the hands, Mary

CHARLOTTESVILLE. Va. Sept.
24.-George Washington's pitch
ing and catching team of Andy
Davis to Charley Jones gave the
University of Virginia a scare to-
day, but before the seasons foot
ball inaugural for both teams was
over the Cavaliers came up with
two late touchdowns and won,
27-13.
A Scot Stadium crowd Of $4,000
watched Virginia take a 1870 half
time lead. with the Colonials
showing little offense in the first
two quarters. But Coach Bo Row.
lands club bounced back to tie it
up and for moment threatened
to duplicate last years upset
triumph.
A long punt return and a pass
interception gave the Cavaliers
the ball deep in G. w. territory
twice in the last 10 minutes. Both
times Virginia produced a scoring
punch, one from yards out by
Bernie Gill and the second time a
19-yard t-and-run touchdown by
Johnny Papit, who for the day
covered 203 yards in 26 ball-carry-
ing efforts
Davis Daring Pass Clicks.
1t was Davis and Jones who
staged a 93-yard touchdown pro-
duction that gave G. w. the life
to make a ball game of it. The
Colonials had been backed to their
own 7-yard line and Davis, who
had little protection all day, back
pedaled into the end zone. his
arm cooked to pass.
Andy heaved it hard and Jones,
who had outsped all defenders,
caught up with the ball at mid
field, and after a beautiful catch
he raced SO yards to score with
Virginia's Bill Stanley in futile
pun quiz. lidO was dL Vic 90
point of the third period.
Three minutes later the Colo
malls had the ball at midf1eld after
AL Du Golf recovered a Papit fun
BILE. Davis, almost nailed, hit
Frank Close with a short pass,
and after having his headgear
torn off, Du Goff tore for 26 yards,
hit so many times he finally stag
gered backwards in the wrong di-
rection before being downed. On
the next play, Jones made another
spectacular leaping catch of a
Davis pass and fell two feet short
of a touchdown. Du Gof scored
but Jim Kline, who booted the first
extra point, had his second at
tempt detected. That tied the
ball game at 13-all.

In the same period, Villanova
drove IS yards in sustained drive
with Pasquariello, Rogers and
Frinzi leading the attack. Roman

out and Villanova had it's third
touchdown on the completed pass.
Penn State broke the monotony
