|DependabIes for 81
Star as W&L Whips
Richmond in Finale
BY the Assoeiaisd Press

RICHMOND. Va, Nov. a.
Washington and Lee gave a broad
hint of what may be expected
from next years Generals in
trampling the University of Rich
mond, 1877, yesterday.
Fellows with established reputa-
|tions. like Gil Bocetti, Yves Abrams,
Talbot Trammell and Randy
Broyles, all did well enough while
the big blue team gave the
Spiders an offensive lesson.
But perhaps the most significant
part of the triumph was the per-
formance of several youngsters in
the W&L cast-players on whose
shoulders will rest the success Of
the 1852 W&L team.
The biggest eyeful let loose by
W&L Coach George Barclay was
Ia slim, 5-foot-11. 170-pound
sophomore back named Giro
Barcelona.
Running like a scared rabbit,
the speedy Barcelona got off two
touchdown runs of IS and 81
yards. They were the only scores
he had collected all season.
Pete Debeers, a raw freshman,
also shared in the limelight
though he played only a few sec
onds. Debeers grabbed a Rich
mond pass three seconds before
the final whistle and sped. 40
yards to the end zone.
Bocetti, the veteran, bowed out
Iof college competition with his
usual brilliant performance. He
passed to Trammell for a touch
down and rushed for so yards.
| Abrams and Broyles also con-
tributed touchdowns to the W&L
triumph.
Richmond got crackerjack
passing performance out of Bobby
Tyler, who with freshman Brent
Holder riddled the W&L pass
defense for 161 yards. 1t was the
biggest dent made in the Gener-
ais defense since the season
started.
Big Joe Purinai got Richmond 8
only touchdown when he ran 40
yards with a screen pass from
Tyler in the second period.

Birge Finds Stardom
Al Last as vkI Beats
|VPI in Final Game
BY The Associated Press

ROANOKE, Va, Nov. %
Tommy Birge. who once played
with Episcopal High School at
Alexandria, waited until the final
game of his college career to
achieve the stardom his VM1
coaches always had predicted for
him.
Last year it was broken toe
which kept Birge from getting a
full chance to shine for the Kay
diets. This year he was plagued
by an injured leg.
But yesterday. against VMI's
arch rival, Virginia Tech, the
Arlington senior was the out-of-
this world back every one had
known he could be. all along.
All his injuries deserted him
for one big afternoon and this is
what he did as the Kaydets came
careening from behind in the
second half to beat Tech, 20-7:
Rushed for 215 yards in "a
times carrying the ball.
Scored the touchdown which
|put VMI back in the game, ther
scored the touchdown which put
the Keydets ahead for keeps.
Logged runs of AZ, 38, 20, 13 anc
10 yards.
Kicked two extra points.
With this kind of help from
Birge. VMI dominated the sec.
ond half of "the military classic
of the South" and won as ex.
pected. The third Keydet score
came on a pass from Bill Brehany
to back Curley Powell.
But before Birge began tt
operate. and before that seconc
half. Tech threw a tremendous
scare into favored VMI.
The Techmen held the upper
hand all through the first twt
quarters and were ahead, TO, a
intermission. The score cam,
latter VMI tumble on its own Is
lVPI recovered and after Tomm,
Bryant went to the 10, Johnn,
Dean rif1ed a touchdown pass t,
Chad White. That, as it turnet
out. was all the damage the Tech
men could do.

since 1947. Before the Illini had
bumped into the Buckeyes, they
had compiled 167 points in de-

A year ago the Illini had de-

That's why Eliot now says the
scoreless tie with the Buckeyes
last week probably did more good
than anything else in getting the

CIV Narrowly Averts
Upset as WI Muffs'
Many Scoring Chance,
By Brion Bell, Jr.

When Washington-Lee and
George Washington High Schools
meet in their annual Thanksgiv-
ing football battle for the Old
Oaken Bucket. you can throw
away the form sheet.
Mount Vernon had routed WI,
$50, and CIV had beaten the
Mounts. 28-7, so the Presidents
were supposed to have an easy
time with the Generals yesterday.
CIV won, but the score was 7-6
and the Presidents needed every
break they could get.
The crowd of around 10000 atl
the George Washington Stadium
In Alexandria saw the CIV score
q second period touchdown,
Tackle Walter johnson kick AM
extra point and the Presidents
hold on to win.
Five times the Generals had
scoring opportunities inside the
CIV 80. but only once did they
get a touchdown. The lone CIV
score came on a 75-yard march
and that was the only time the
Presidents were in WI territory.
CIV Line Stops WI.
A determined CIV line that
stiffened in the clutch and some
alert pass defense by Bob Sillex
thwarted the Generals. In the
lone George Washington scoring
march. the Presidents looked like
a team that was supposed to win
by two touchdowns. After that
their offense sputtered badly.
The Generals drove to the CIV
n after the opening kickoff, but
were stymied. A few minutes
later, Tackle Charlie Bonneville,
the best lineman on the field yes
terday. recovered tumble on the
CIV 80, but again the Presidents
held.
Bonneville fell on another loose
ball at the Presidents "a later
in the quarter. and WI lost a
golden scoring opportunity. Tail
back AL Martina and Fullback
Dean Hillenbrand ran the ball to
a first down at the 8. Hllen-
brand carried twice to the l, and
on third down, with touchdown
In sight, the hard-running full
back slipped on the muddy turf
and his knee touched the ground
8 sincheS from the end zone.
Hillenbrand took the bali once
more, but the center of the CIV
line stiffened and took over inches
from a touchdown.
Pope Scores for CIV.
Sillex punted out to the % and
intercepted a pass a few plays
later to put the ball on the CIV
rs. With Sillex passing to End
Chuck Motley who made one
great diving catch at the WI
49, Fullback Dick Pope bucking
the middle and Wingback Ralph
Kneeland making yardage on re-
verses, the Presidents drove to the
WI 10.
Sillex hit Motley with a jump
pass at the l and on fourth down
Pope powered over. Johnson's
kick made the difference.
Washington-Lee continued to
press the Presidents in the second
half and after scoreless third
period, the Generals finally got
six points. A pass interception
by AL Howard gave WI chance
at the CIV % midway in the final
quarter. Tailback Don Hobbs and
Hillenbrand moved the ball to the
18 where Hillenbrand tried right
end and was stopped. He later
aled to Hobbs, who tight-roped
the sidelines to score. Tackle Bill
Mallon's try for the tying kick
went to the right.

brand got the Generals a first

eepted to seal the game for CIV.

4O2 deer KILLED
FIRST Three DAYS
Hunters Not as Numerous as in
Previous Years, But Still
Many in the Woods

Four hundred two deer have been
killed in this county during the first
three days of the six-day season, it
was announced this morning by game
officials.
In spite of the rain on the second
day, the total was increased over that
of last year, and there were posi-
bilities that the number for the en-
tire season would surpass the all-time
record of SIT, set in 1916. During
the first three days of last year there
were only 230 deer killed. Last years
total was 374, while the year previous
to that the total was 493.
Sportsmen were still out in large
numbers but game officials said they
did not believe there were as many
as last year.
Most of the deer brought in were Of
moderate weight. One of the ones to
report the first day was Ray Ridder,
of Oakland, who got a 14-pont buck
weighing 1877 pounds in the Table
Rock section.
At the reporting stations this year
169 were reported the first day, 135
on Tuesday, and IS yesterday. The
number was divided as follows: Oak
land, IS, IS, 40; Grantsville, IS, 10,
IS; Storey's, 80, 26, p; Friendsville,
IL, s, 7; Swanton, IA, Is, 8; Western
port, 5, 3, 3; LaVale, 3, /, 3.
State game officials were here for
two days checking the size, weight,
etc. of the bucks brought in to de-
termine how the forage or feeding is
holding up. Whether there is suf-
ficient food in the various areas.
These officials, Romeo Mansueti. Bal
timore, and Craig Whetese, Damascus,
biologists from the Maryland Depart
ment of Research and Education,
Solomons, were checking bone
measurement and antler measure
ment. 1t was determined that most
of the deer brought in were not over
three years old.

Citizens Urged To
Pledge Pint of Blood

Citizens of the Oakland area who
can meet required standards are be-
ing urged to donate pint of their
blood to the armed forces. The Mt.
Top Chamber Of Commerce is CO.
operating with the American Red
Cross in this project.
1t was pointed out at recent meet
ing of the board of directors of the
Mt Top Chamber of Commerce that
the need for this blood is urgent, since
existing supplies of blood plasma
available to soldiers, sailors, airmen
and marines are gravely depleted as
result of the Korean conflict. At
this recent meeting each member of
the board volunteered to donate a
pint of blood.
The effectiveness of this reserve
was shown by the fact that what plas-
ma the armed forces have used in ko-
rea was drawn from World War IL
reserve stocks. The plasma has kept
wounded alive until they can be
evacuated to areas where they can
be given whole blood. Records show
that plasma and whole blood have
been major factors in reducing the
number of wounded who die after
reaching forward surgical hospitals
from 8 to l in World War | to as
in World War ii, and 2.5 in the Ko-
rean campaign.
When the local chapter of the
American Red Cross has received
pledges for $50 pints, arrangements
will be made to have a bloodmobilc
visit this area.
Residents of the area who wish to
donate their blood may do so by con-
tacting the Garrett County chapter
of the American Red Cross for their
pledge Mrs. f. Z. Tower is chairman
and the telephone number is "a.
