The White team, quarterbacked by Barney Holland, scored first on a pass to Farrell Albright after approximately 19 minutes of play ing time had elapsed. The Greens came back strong, however, marching 70 yards to the goal line on a number of fine passes by quarterback Don Holt and the line - smashing efforts of sopho more fullback Dean Van Leuven. Dick James was the lad who chalked up the six points, as he bucked the line from three vards out. The game then settled down to a battle of defensive units, with r neither team scoring for some time. Late in the fray, however, White quarterback Holland dropped a pass in the waiting arms of halfback Tom Elliott in the ' end zone, and the Greens trailed, j 12-6. Don Holt and his green-jerseyed ; mates were not to be denied, how , ever, as they set out on another 70 yard march which ended with Walt Gaffney crossing the goal line from one yard out. Gaffney’s run ning had much to do with setting up the score, as the tricky JC transfer picked up yardage several time on the way down the field. The Whites took over the ball with only a few minutes remain ing, and despite a pair of long passes by Holland which passed through the arms of his team mates, there was no more scoring in the tilt.
