Jim Ford and his George

the team to beat.
A week ago. the Presidents
were hard-pressed to triumph
over Wilson, and last night Fair
fax, a heavy underdog, forced
the Northern Virginia favorites
to come from behind for a
10-7 victory.
Sonny johnson pulled the
game out with minute and 20
seconds to go when he booted
a field goal from 20 yards away.
With this fresh in his mind,
Coach Ford declines all invita-
tions toward confidence.
The Presidents have games re-
naming against six other Vir-

with st. Johns and Episcopal.
I'm not making any predic-

Shutout Against WI
Warns Cadets Rivals
In Catholic League
By Dick SIoy

The Catholic League, limited
to four teams this football sea-
son, needn't wait much longer to
get comparative line on its two
big rivals.
st. Johns took an energetic
squad to Westinghouse High
last night for its opener and sur
prised the Generals, 1870, before
5000 fans. GonZaga, which has
been chasing the Cadets to the
Catholic throne the last four
years, gets its chance across the
river next week end.
WI went down to its first de-
feat in three games this season
and the first by a District team
since st. Johns pulled the trick,
14-7, in 1852. But the Cadets
made it look easy, mostly because
of what Coach Bob. Waldorf
called a sluggish" performance
by his WI club.
Generals Line Outplayed.
The WI line that outcharged
Fairfax and Northwestern the
last two week ends came a CROP
per in the face Of the quicker
and heavier Cadet forwards. The
Generals could muster only one
first down rushing while St.
Johns was earning 10. The
yardage on the ground was $50
to 80, again in the visitors favor.
WI took the edge in passing,
100 yards to IS, most Of it COM
ing on the desperation tosses Of
Jim Simpson late in the game.
Coach Joe Gallagher OF st.
Johns was almost ecstatic over
the play Of his line, especially
that of Bubba Healy, guard and
co-captain. The defensive end
work Of John Frazier and Mike
Ryan also was singled out.
Frankly I wasn't surprised"
Gallagher said afterward. IT
thought I had a ball club here
and the only thing that wor-
ried me was the opening game
filters. And we didn't have
them"
Cadets Score Early.
The touchdowns came the sec
ond time st. Johns got the
ball and at the end of So
yard march with the second
half kickoff. Halfback John
Renehan and Fullback Jim
Kane, the latter subbing for
the injured Bruce Hunt, fought
off tacklers continually in lead
ing both drives.
Quarterback Dick Webb, a
second-stringer filling in for John
Hanlon, also injured. sneaked
several inches for the first
quarter score to cap an 87-yard
push and then passed to Jerry
Dillon for the extra point. Rem
chan crossed the goal on a s.
yard run around left end in
the third quarter.

Green Rider Eleven

Roosevelt, last years Inter

dismayed by the pre- season data
pointing up its lack of expert
ence. The Riders weren't dis
mayed either by Northwestern S
bigger and faster line last night
when they held on for a 1877
victory before 1000 over the BIZ
County League champions at
Northwestern.
The Wildcats outdid Roose-
velt in everything except the
score-in first downs, rushing
yardage and yards gained pass
ing.
Fullback Jim Ross went 81
yards through right tackle to
give Roosevelt a 60 lead late
in the first quarter. And just
before halftime he put his team
ahead to stay by plunging for
the last two yards of a 30-yard
march.
Between these scores North
western took a momentary lead
when Quarterback Bob Thomas
sneaked one inch into the end
zone and Dick Parker convert
ed. That drive started only 20
yards away.

ciaD Bill Slade ran 78 yards

Strong Defense Tells
As Eastern Wins;
Anacostia Victor

How long his defense can keep
on winning football games for
Eastern High is one of the big
headaches pestering Coach Dick
Mentzer today.
Last week two intercepted
passes and a recovered tumble
led to Eastern's 1877 victory over
Mount Vernon. Yesterday in the
Interhigh opener at Eastern, the
Ramblers' resistance and a gen.
erous portion of luck were the
big factors in a 60 win over
Western.
In spite of a shoulder injury
to it's fastest back, Ronnie Nc
Duffie, Western came within the
shadow of Eastern's goal three
times. The Raiders drove "a
yards to Eastern's 8 before Bob
Lomax was smeared for an IL
yard loss trying to pass. Dave
Ellington, stickout in the East
ern defensive backfield all after
noon, reached out with one hand
to trip Mike Deuel. in the open.
And in the fourth quarter Lo-
max tossed a perfect 45-yard
pass to Sal lombard on the
Eastern 2-yard line that bounced
out of Lombardi's hands.
Eastern, meanwhile, was hang
ing on to a second period touch
down scored by Ronnie Cecil
on a 43-yard run around left
end. Charley Sampson, 1885,
pound tackle, supplied the block
that shook him loose. =
Anacostia recovered from last
weeks opening defeat by Con-
zaga to wallop Chamberlain yes
terday. 1916. joining Eastern at
the top of the Western Division
standings in the Interhigh
League.
Tailback Dan Droze continued
his heroics by scoring three times
in the first half-on a 4-yard
plunge, a 39-yard dash down
the sideline and on a 65-yard
punt return.
Don Goings chipped in with
two Anacostia touchdowns and
Bob Dornes climaxed the Indian
uprising with a 7-yard punch
over the goal in the last quarter.
Chamberlain scored it's first
