the win column on his second
try last Friday as his Northern

crossed the goal line from six
yards out to account for both of
the Huskies' first quarter tbs.
From that point on the Huskies

every period but the last when

tarians from several states, Kor-
man explained that there are sew
eral theories as to what happened
to the colonists when they dis
appeared. Theories include: (D that
and intermarried into the race;
they mingled with friendly Indians;
(2) that the Spaniards attacked
the fort, destroyed or killed the
people there; (3) that the colonists
We're killed by unfriendly Indians;
az that they started back to Eng

White and were destroyed without
a trace by storm; (5) or that they
migrated inland and established
settlements on more protected and
fertile spots.
whatever happened - and no
one has the answer-this great in
cident of history still remains one
of the greatest mysteries of all
time, and is perhaps the reason
why night after night audiences
sit spellbound watching the drama
of people unroll before their ewes
and then leave asking, But what
do you suppose really happened to
them p"
