Somewhere along its. longest grid trail Northward the Hurricane must have abated but for all of its lack of velocity 1t was not until Georgetown fought fire with fire. or pony backs with pony backs. that the Hoyas triumphed. 1t was a pair of half-pint reserve backs, Jimmy Sheeran and William Duff, who turned the tide in favor of Georgetown, with two sharp scoring thrusts late in the second and final periods. Shortly before the hah-time whistle, Georgetown struck with combination aerial and running attack which culminated in a 65-yard march for a touchdown. In the final period the alert Duff intercepted a pass in the Hurricane zone and between a Is yard penalty upon Miami and Duff’s line-plunging. the Hoyas cinched the victory.
