W) Two long passes In the first. and final periods enabled Bethany to close Its home grid season today with a 120 victory over Adrian College. The game, played on a muddy field, was marred by frequent fumbling. BJacksburg, Nqy. Tech North Carolina State College battled to a scoreless tie here today.

The game was played In quagmire, and at times the black mud was so thoroughly plastered on the faces of the combatants they could hardly be recognised. Both teams had The Gobblers' opportunity came In the opening pe- rlad, after they had the ball to the seven-yard line. It looked as it the Tcfh men had a counter, but ori the fourth down a pass, Robinson to Faulkner, was grounded, and It was State's ball on her five-yard strip. State had about the same opportunity to score In the second period, but their forward march goalward was stopped at the (lfteen yard line. It was at this spot that Austin was run In to deliver a drop-kick, but bis boot wont into the line of scrimmage on the fifteen-yard line, and it was Tech's ball there.

Robinson booted out of danger, and the defen slve battle in the middle of the Held went forward. The Gobblers got the honors In the opening period and State In the second and third periods. Tech easily captured the final period, but the booting of McDowell kept his danger zone unscatchcd. The Techs kicked at the whistle ai)d he ran the ball back fifteen yards. State hit up a rattling offensive and captured a first down right off the bat.

On the second attempt, the Oobblers held, and State kicked over the line. It was Tech's ball on the twenty-yard line. Faulkner, Barre and Moss hit the State lice for. substantial gains at each attempt, and it looked ay though thel score In the first minutes of play. The Staters stiffened, and" then Rogertson got off a long heave to Faulkner successfully.

The pass netted slvteen yards, placing the oval on the seven-yard lln.e. A fumble was recovered and a forward passes grounded, end the locals lost their only chance to score. The second period opened with the ball on the thlrly-elght-yard line, in Carolina State's possession. Two line buck for short gains were launched by State, and then a long forward pass, McDowell to Johnston, placed the ball on Tech's flft-een- yard mark. Austin, a substitute, was run In to drop-kick, but the boot went low, and a Gobbler was on the ball on his fifteen-yard mark.

The Staters played a rattling offensive in the" third period, but the great defense of the Gobblej: line and backs never allowed the ball to come within the twenty-flve-yard The Quarter ended with the ball on the flfty-flve-yard lino In State's possession, In the fourth- period, which was all Gobbler's, State was forced to punt Immediately. The ball -went over the boundary, and it was Tech's ball oh the Anderr son, Bsleck, Barre and Robinson started a-drive down the field and carried the oval to State's forty- yard mark. The Gobblers 'failed at a forward pass. Robinson droped back for a field-goal, the ball barely cleared the line of scrimmage. State recovered.

At this point, Dick Esleeck got in some of the best eod running of the ywar, On two occasions the fleet back carried the ball froki the twenty- yard line past mid-field, but there the Carolinians stiffened and the Gobblers were forced to'kick. The quarter ended with the ball In lecha possession on the forty- yard marker. Tory's game was a nip and tuck affair. Both teams bad about the same amount of defensive and offensive ability. Ajt times It looked as though each surely would make the boundary, but It always was the old first wall of defense that stopped offensive operations.

The Gobblers showed fight and dash throughout, and the backs took desperate risks to make the required distance. The big light for the Tech men was Ken Faulkner, a produce of the Blacksburg High School, Faulkner, in the opening period, could not be stopped. Not only did he shine on the offensive, but his secondary defensive work stood out at all times. Dick Esleeck Tan Faulkner a close second. It was Esloeck that shone so brightly, in the fourth period.

In the line Jonea, of Richmond, was the big light. He was ably seconded by Greene, Kd Handy, and Captain Joo The Gobbler's work in the line was as good today as lu and game in the past decade. Spurred on by the in- domnitable spirit at fighting, Joo Moran, the defenslye works of tha Tech men was airtight at all times, while the secondary defense threw the Staters for losses of from five to ten yards. The same thing can be said of the Down Home aggregation. Their special luminary was McDowell, their star triple-threat artist.

McDowell's kicking was par excellence and not one timed id he tnles getting off his punts for great distance's. Although the Tech rush lines crowded him at all times, the other stars for State were Hufford, Johnston and Hunsucker. In the line Kllgore, Bytum, White and 1 Nicholson were towers ot strength. I The game, although played in inud and rnlre, was fast and Interesting at all times, the Techs play Virginia in CharlottesvlUe next Saturday. V.
