Guy Andes. surprise winner of
the Howard Campbell Open this
season, is back with another i'm
portant duckpin victory, and a
brilliant one. Andes. competing
in a crack field of Baltimore,
Washington and Hagerstown
duckpinners, won the first an
nual Homeland Open in Balti-
more yesterday. He shot $50 for
five games. an average of 1892,
with scores of Isl. 100, 1855. 124,
159 and ISL.
He topped the runnerup, Chris
Biensach Of Baltimore, by 81
pins. At the start of the fifth
game, Biensach was one stick in
front, with ITO against Andes
TOO, but in the finale rolled only
129 against Andes ISL. The
winners prize was $3.50.
Dolores Swan, bowler with a
SO average, has expressed a de-
sire to compete in the Women's
District Minor League which is
several steps higher than the
class to which she's accustomed.
But after Miss Swans perform
ance last night in the annual
Hyattsville Handicap the young
woman likely will receive a lot
of attention from team captains
OF the District Minor.
She won the tournament, in
competition with rs others, in
Guiding only a few women. Her
handicap was stout-140-but SO
was her performance. From
scratch she shot 594 for five
games, an average one pin short
of 119, and crossed 734 for a SIS
prize. Miss Swan bowls in the
Boiling Field Mixed League at
the Greenway>

Bushnell Fears Official Booted
Call on Downs in Navy Game

Asa Bushnell, commissioner OF
the Eastern intercollegiate Foot

the officials missed one," in re-
ferring to the lost down incident
in Saturdays Navy-Duke game
at Baltimore.
II can't understand how it
happened" he told a Football
Writers Association luncheon in
New York yesterday. Il consider
the officials at that game among

At Durham, N. c., Coach Bill
Murray OF Duke apparently plans
no official protest about the de-
ciSion which repeatedly gave his
Blue Devils only three downs
during one series of plays near
the Navy goal.
After viewing movies of the
game yesterday. Murray said,
"the mistake was made in good
faith and we accept it as that" {"
The incident came in the third
quarter of the Scoreless game.
Duke had worked to a first down
on the Navy II, and on the first
play thereafter drew a 5-yard
penalty for be- Jkfleld in motion.
Navy is remembered as having
declined the penalty but, accord

Capital League Needs
Another Member as
Wilson Bows Out

Now that Wilson Teachers
College has dropped football the
three-team Capital Area Con-
ference may be dissolved unless
a new member is admitted. Gal
laudet and Montgomery Junior
College remain as the two teams
in the league.
Frank (Rube) Rubini, athletic
director at Montgomery, said
there is a possibility that Shep-
herd College at Shepherdstown,
w. Va. and Potomac State at
Keyser, w. Va. may be admitted
next year.
Wilson ended its season and
football at the school on a tav-
orable note despite a 60 loss
yesterday to undefeated Mont
gomery at Montgomery Blair
High School field. The Teachers
finished with a 2-6 record. Mont
gomery's record is 60 with two
games remaining.
The knights scored their lone
touchdown in the first quarter
and then played a defensive
game on the mud-Slick field. End
Ronnie Groves recovered Will
son tumble on the Teachers Is
to set up the score. John Shearer
passed to Co-Capt. Nick Poulos
for gains of S and 10 yards and
on third down PouloS went
around right end for the touch
down.
Wilson, following the kickoff,
worked the ball down to Mont
gomery'S 10 on plays by Wade
Hubbard, Bob Decker and Larry
Colabucci, but lost the ball on
downs. In the fourth quarter,
Wilson drove to the Knights 8.
Montgomery, by it's victory,
won the conference champion
ship for the second straight
year, having defeated Gallaudet
earlier in the season. Gallaudet
defeated Wilson.

Crowd Sees Thriller
As BIadensburg Rally
Gives SuitIand Scare

Bi-county League fans may
have to wait a long time to see
second half of a football game
as stirring as the one Bladens-
burg and Suitland played last
night in the mud at Northwest
ern High School stadium.
Suitland won, 1914, but it
was the last-ditch antics of the
Mustangs which brought most of
the $500 fans out of their seats
and on to the playing field to
see the thrilling finish.
Suitland, enjoying an 1870
third-Quarter lead. floundered in
the sloppy going and watched
Bladensburg creep to within a
touchdown Of victory with only
two minutes to play.
The running and passing of
Quarterback Norman Harris led
the Mustangs in their stretch
bid. He tossed 40 yards to End
Mike Collins for the first touch
down and scored the second on
a 7-yard burst through center.
And when Bladensburg blocked
a Suitland punt on the next Sc
ries of downs it looked bad for
the Rams.
InterceptiOn Halts Drive.
With the field circled by the
crowd anticipating a score, Har-
ris threw a pass intended for
Collins, but 135-pound Jack
Simms intercepted for Suitland
on his own 40.
Bladensburg doggedly hung on
as Guard Ronnie Marshall re-
covered Suitland tumble. Two
passes failed and on the third
toss Suitland Halfback John
Hayden intercepted Harris pitch
and was stopped on the Bladens-
burg 20 as the game ended.
Suitland's touchdowns were
scored by Simms and Fullback
Charlie Price, the latter scoring
twice.
Suitland now is tied with Be-
thesda Chevy Chase for the
Maryland Bi-County League lead,
both having 81 records. Blad-
ensburg has a 1-2 record.
Sherwood and Laurel Tie.
Sherwood High School played
Laurel to a 6-6 tie yesterday at
Sandy Spring in Group II play,
closing out its season with a
5-2-1 record. Ben Gartrell scored
for Sherwood and Tommy Bell
for Laurel.
Two nearby Virginia schools
were defeated in games yester-
day. Fairfax lost it's seventh
game in eight starts as Lane
High took a 300 victory at
Charlottesville.
st. Stephens of Alexandria,
defending champion of the six
man Interstate Football League,
lost to Boys Latin of Baltimore,
1924, at Alexandria. 1t was the
second defeat for st. Stephens
by the Baltimore team. Boys
Latin IN an earlier game snapped
a 25-game winning streak of St.
Stephens. Yesterdays victory
gives Boys Latin the, league
championship.
