  upses Pemnare Football Machines Move Into High Gear Today Victory Over Ole Miss Reveals Georgetown as Rough, Tough Team: Weird Tui|ies Win simply played sale IN nnlshlng tne job. We couldn’t detect anything rad ically wrong with the line. It had Mush Dubofskv’s indehble imprint when the Hoyas lined up for a goal-line stand in the final period, and with another yard or so of elbow room it would have barred the way to Lee Castle, who barely got over. Hapes, HoviuS and all the rest Of them. 1t hurled back one plunge before Castle finally reached pay dirt. Al Blozis did nothing to dis courage his all-America tackle buildup before injuring his knee. Ed Derrinee at center was knock out. Perpich. the other tackle. was swell. and FRANKIE Fenwich, Wash ington boy, was as good as the rest of them before kick on the head knocked him out of action. Pavich and Lemke Hot Georgetown could have used Mike Kopcis kicking. but Mike at his best couldn’t have PLAYED better all-around game at end than either Pavich or Lemke. Chris covered Hovlous on long down1eld passes when the Mississippi star started from the sidelines. and We mean covered him. Both fankers kept the Rebels vaunted H-boyS. Hovious and Hapes. bottled up throughout most OF the evening, turning them inside into the arms OF George | towns secondary, or chasing ENwide and making the tackles personally The Hoyas’ blocking was nothing to brae about except on pass plavs when Ben Bulvin got ample prolection. And Benny, taking plenty OF time, generally put the ball where II should have been. Bullet Ben Relges, In action only few minutes, tossed one pass for a short gain and IL was a honey. Hagerty quickly yanked him. Mississippi’s line. weak last year. couldn’t cope with Georeetoyn’s nrst-strlngers. The Rebel backs were getting up to the line of scrinmage and no more in the face of tne Hoyas’ deadly charging. Their only hope of gaining was through the air and it was pass from Jackie Flack to Wobble Davidson that set up tnelr only score. A slugging pen atty set Georgetown back on its l-yard stripe and Castle bucked il | over. Hovlous and Hapes both seemed 10 be excellent paSsers and run ners, but couldn’t make their vav INTO the open. Twice Hovious pIt passes in the hands of Thorsev an emo; out Ihorsey couldn’t hang on 10 the leather. Either time he would nave gone for a sizable gain. possibly touchdovns. Hapes Twice Is Victim. Hapes was the victim in both toucnoown plays. The first time. as ne mt of right tackle for a first down on his own 43. he made the mistake of holding the ball I’D for an omclal to take before anv could reach him. They were all on the other side of the play and Pavich. TOO late for the tackle. simply grabbed the ball as a matter of routine and started downheld. About 10 yards away he hesitated. looked around as If expecting to be tagged down, and when nobody said any, thing simply kept on running. Mississippi was too f1abbergasted to protest until 1t was too late. One official made a half-hearted effort to recall the play but when the others did not join in he held his peace. The second time Hapes committed genuine tumble. on his own 45. and Lemke was away behind a wave of blockers for the goal line.
