Virginia, IA; CIV, 13.
By GEORGE Huber

After three straight losing
games, two of which it could
have won, George Washington's
football outlook might be con-
sidered pretty grim. But such
isn't the case.
The olonialS have had
stretches of almost everything
that adds up to winning foot
ball. All they need to do is
keep it up for an entire game.
They've shown good passing and
good running. The defenses at
times have been very good, but
at other times the Colonials have
come apart when the opposition
threatens.
About the only item the Co.
lonials haven't shown at one
time or another this season is
good punting, and they help
make up for that by preventing
runbacks. They figure that a
30-yard punt with no runback
is better than one for 40 yards
with IS returned, and so far it's
worked that way.
Repeat Performance.
Saturdays game was in some
ways a repeat performance of
the previous years GW-Virginia
game in which CIV won all the
statistics and actually appeared
to be the better ball team, but
lost the game. And as in that
previous game, fumbleS made the
difference. This is surprising, be-
cause until last week CIV hasn't
been a fumbling team, while Vir-
ginia the week before bobbled
10 times and lost the ball six
times.
One CIV bobble ended an 85-
yard drive inside Virginia's five.
Another gave Virginia the ball a
yard from a touchdown. Two
other fumbles gave away the ball
in Virginia territory, A couple of
15-yard penalties also hurt.
The Colonials fumbled five
times and lost four of them.
Virginia also fumbled five times,
but recovered the ball every time.
The Cavaliers actually fumbled
twice while getting that last yard
after a CIV tumble gave Vir-
ginia a sendof to its first touch
down, including one tumble as
Herb Hartwell went over for
the score.
Ciemniecki Breaks Loose.
Among the better things for
CIV was the excellent running
by Len Ciemniecki who finally
has found a way to get loose and
who will be a threat from here
on in. CIV defenses also have
regrouped and despite occasional
lapses against Virginia can be
a potent factor the rest of the
way. Dick Gaspari, who played
so hard minutes Saturday, was
a standout.
AS for Virginia, it is a much
better team this year. Hartwell

Navy, AZ; Dartmouth, I.
By Bill Fuchs


Dartmouth put the torch to
Navy in Hanover. N. H., Friday
night. Hundreds of wild-eyed
students danced around a fiery
monument on The Green and
thousands of visitors crowded in
close to watch. To those not
familiar with college life in a
town dominated by Joe College.
it was an impressive experience.
"The figure at the top is a
Midshipman," a student volun-
teered. That's Navy going up
in smoke!"
Flames lowered 100 feet in
the air. In a few moments the
complicated structure, built by
freshmen taught by sophomores,
was reduced to ash.
The crowd then turned its at
tention to the Dartmouth Glee
Club. Soon the air was filled
with vocal harmony and at that
point there wasn't a student or
visitor in sight who wasn't con-
vinced that Dartmouth's football
team would give Navy a rough
time the following afternoon.
Reserves Win for Navy.
That Dartmouth did give Navy
a time of it for three quarters
of the game has been duly re-
corded. Navy's reserves came
off the bench to win with the
help of three regulars Ronnie
Beagle, Bob Craig and Joe Cat
tuso. The central figures, be-
sides End Beagle, were Dick
Echard and Dave Korzep, ranked
third and fourth among Navy's
quarterbacks.
With the Indians leading, TO
late in the third quarter, Coach
Eddie Erdelatz was experiencing
some anxious moments on the
Navy bench. Dartmouth's pass
defense was stopping the Mid
dies short. And the Indians had
showed they could move against
Navy's first-string line when they
advanced 50 yards for their
touchdown.

UCLA IL, Maryland Z.
By MerreII WhittIesey

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 4.-The
football rankings will be out to-
morrow and UCLA almost as
suredly will be in the first three,
while Maryland's chances of
staying in the first 10 this season
may be hurt by it's schedule.
The Terps lost little prestige
in their 1877 defeat at the hands
of the Bruins, but their schedule
looks worse each week, with only
two of their future opponents
having escaped a tie or defeat
at this early writing.
That's the only way it can be,
but there's something unfair
about it because the Terps came
SO awfully close to winning that
game with UCLA, 7-6. If that
had been the result. Maryland
would have been in the top
three and the Bruins down
below.
If UCLA goes on to prove it
is 1913 in the Nation, Maryland
must have a pretty good ball
club, too. Remember, the UCLA
touchdowns followed a Maryland
tumble on it's own 10-yard line,
and two straight Terp errors
that gave the Bruins the ball
on the Maryland Is.
Made Sustained Marches.
Maryland rolled 81 yards in a
ball-control march of IS plays
for it's touchdown and was
stopped by the clock at halftime
after going 78 yards in II plays.
There were no such sustained
marches by the single-wing
Bruins.
Maryland did not suffer from
the Saturday football scores,
which indicated California has
some pretty good football teams.
Stanford, rated well below
UCLA, gave Illinois, co-cham-
pion of the Big Ten, a much
more severe going over than
that 1872 score indicates.
Southern Cal sneaked past
Northwestern, and California
lost. only three touchdowns to
two. to Ohio State at Columbus.
There was no attempt by
anybody to alibi the Maryland
loss. While the Terps could
have won with a little more
headwork on two or three occa-
sions. UCLA deserved to win
because it did not make mistakes
such as the ones that cost the
TerpS.
The lone error by the Bruins,
forgotten by most people but
quickly pointed out by Coach
Red Sanders, came in the first
quarter when a UCLA player
touched a Maryland punt and
the ball slid off his foot and the
Terps recovered. This turned q
35-yard punt into that much ot
a gain. but Maryland gave the
ball right back on the next play
when Frank Tamburello's pass
was intercepted.
Bruins Well Coached.
UCLA was a smart, we'll
coached football team. Both Jim
Tatum and Sanders stress stick
ing to the things you do best.
And their staffs never worked
harder to win.
There may be a few switches
in the Maryland three-deep this
week. A couple Of those second
string linemen are about to bump
the present regulars out of their
starting positions. and it's likely
that one or two of the bigger
name players on the Maryland
squad are going to be lectured
too. There's a case or two of the
boys not living up to advance
notices.
Maryland does not have that
take-charge guy that has beer
a part of the schools football
success under Tatum. When the
Terps needed important yardage
against the Bruins, there was
uncertainty among its followers
as to whether they would get it
Last year there was no doubt
about it.

BY The Asseeiatsd Press

The stage was set today for
another free-for-all for the Ma

Rams and San Francisco Forty
Miners counted casualties after
thrilling 24-24 tie before 93,553

The Rams now head for De-

the Forty Miners also move east

fight that promises to surpass

Lions nosed out their 1858 West

In the East it will be the
Philadelphia Eagles playing host

the final day of the season,

between the Lions and Browns
on December 10, a week later

kept the Browns out Of Num-

Only three games were played
yesterday. The Chicago Bears
edged the Packers. 1913, in

The Steelers scored their sec
ond straight victory Saturday
night in walloping the Washing
ton Redskins. 37-7. while the
Baltimore Colts upset the New
York Giants, 20-14.
In statistics the Forty Miners
outplayed the Rams by a good
margin, but the Los Angeles
eleven seized a break to overhaul
their rivals in the last few
minutes of play. Ironically, Hugh
McElhenny's tumble gave the
Rams their chance only seconds
after the former University of

team with the victory.

Purdue Victory Tops
Upset Wave Which
Might Spare Nobody
BY the Assecio,ed Press

Four years ago Purdue
snapped a Notre Dame unbeaten
streak at 80 games. The Boiler
makers won only one more game
that season, so the suspicion was
that 1t was one of those hukes
that happen every so often.
But you may be sure it was
no f1uke Saturday when they
broke a modest Notre Dame un-
beaten streak of 13 games and
in the process handed 26-year-
old Terry Brennan his first de-
feat as a varsity college coach.
Coach Stu Holcomb has a
solid club. with several good vet
Grams and a fine crop of sopho-
mores headed by the fantastic
Len Dawson, who in his first
two games has pitched eight
touchdown passes. He COM
pleted seven of IL heaves in the
Boilermakers' 27-14 conquest of
the Irish.
The Purdue victory possibly
could knock Notre Dame right

though. at the rate the young
season has been progressing,
there may not be an undefeated
major team by November /.
Purdue Plays Duke.
After whipping both Missouri
and Notre Dame, the Boiler
makers this week play host to
Duke, which also has won both
its games. The Blue Devils beat
Penn, $40. in their opener and
nipped Tennessee, rs, last Sat-
urday. A high ranking is cer-
tain for the winner.
Holcomb probably will be Sc
verely reprimanded by the
coaches union, because he
blandly declared before the No
ire Dame game that he had
been thinking all week that
Purdue might win it.
AS for Dawson, who started
his varsity career as sensation
ally as anyone since they've
been keeping records, Holcolmb
said:
There's nothing better than
Dawson. any place. He's a dead
pan youngster and you can't
tell whether he's happy or sad.
But, oh, those hands and feet"
The Irish will try to pick up
the pieces this week against
Pitt. Brennan didn't seem un-
duly disturbed. He said the de-
feat was caused by too many
mistakes" and "complacency."
Brennan, who made his coach
ing debut with a 21-0 triumph
over Texas, said 1--WE didn't play
as a unit. But we'll be a good
football team"
Texan Called the Turn.
Although the Irish were rated
as much as 20-point favorites
over the Boilermakers, an upset
was predicted even before the
season opener.
A member of the Texas cara
van said in Chicago prior tc
the Texas game, II wish we
were playing them the second
game instead of the first. They'll
be up for Brennan but could let
down after that. Don't be too
surprised if they beat us and
then lose to Purdue"

Ancient Drug
Store Collapses

FLORA, Ill. R-Three persons
were killed and two others were
buried under debris in the collapse
of an ancient drug store building
in downtown Flora yesterday.
An adjoining brick building
caved in while the 415-hour rescue
operations were in progress, mar
rowly missing some of the workers

Tins.
Killed were Carroll Thomas, 1S,
and Jerry Savage, 10, fountain
boys, and Leonard Leak, "a, a
carpenter who was laying a new
floor in the N-year-old two-story
building.
John Throgmorton 70-year-old
co-owner of the drug store, was
