4-Touchdown Rally Fails as Brown Loses To Colgate, IS 10 81 PROVIDENCE. R. l., Oct. 28.- Browns fourth-quarter barrage of four touchdowns just fell short as Colgate held and took 1884 victory over the Bruins today before fewer than 5000 spectators. The triumph was Colgate’s fourth straight-its longest WIN ming streak since 1884. The only loss was to Army in its opener. Brown has won one, lost four. Ed Lomanto, a senior from Gloversville, N. Y, made all five of the Raiders conversions. His fifth, coming after Sam Thompsons 53-yard touchdown run, was the margin of victory. Walt Pas tuszak of North Abingdon, Mass, missed just one of his five at tempts for Brown-and he made the vital one only to have it null lifted by a penalty. He was wide on the second try. The Raiders built pass interceptions and Brown fumbles into a 28–7 third quarter lead. Ted Stratton sneaked over for one, and passed to Karl Kluckhorn for another. Brownie Palka and Bob Schirmer got the others. Brown converted a pass interception and a tumble into quick scores early in the fourth quarter. Wit Piscuskas got one on a short buck and Pastuszak ran an interception 26 yards for another. Thompson then came up with his dash. but Carl Leone paced the Bruins to two more. Lee Markof bucked over for one and Leone threw a 25-yard touch down pass to Gerry zeoli with less than a minute left.
