VP) Guilford college football warriors bowed beneath the pressure of William and Mary power tactic today, 31 to 8, but provided the highlight of the game as Coach Carl Voyles kept his Indian tacticians under wraps.

Paul Lentz, Guilford left half and eaptain, furnished the day's sensation by taking a kickoff on his 8 yard line in the first period and running 92 yards for a touchdown almost untouched by the William and Mary squad. Afterword Guilford was stopped cold while the Indians steam roller pushed over touchdowns In every quarter except the third. Guilford failed to make a first down, or to complete a pass. No American aborigines were more careful to hide their war plans from rival tribesmen than the William and Mary Indians were today. Scouts saw a team run plays from simple and depend on the work of a driving line to clear the path for a steady advance.

If Big Chief Voyles is planning PAGING SALEM TACKLERS! HERE COMES PATTERSON FOR 18-YARDS Flashing a superb running form that helped Newport News high roll to a 20-7 victory over Andrew lewis of Salem yesterday, Pat Patterson, Typhoon halfback is caught by the Daily Press camera as he Is about to come to the end of his 18-yard end gallop. Three Salem Wolverines have decided that Mr. Paterson has gone far enough and they are shown as they prepared to wedge Patterson at the sideline. However, Patterson's efforts helped set up a Typhoon tally and a triumph In their Initial Class "A conference tussle. Others In the photo besides Patterson (No.

Major Colleges Have Brisk Workouts At Expense Of Small 'Sacrifice' Schools a "blitzkrieg' against ine vy um week his tactics should be a complete surprise to the Middies.

The Indians scored quickly in the first period. Whitehouse blocked a punt and Ramsey recovered on Guilford's 35. Pour plays reached the 12 and Holltags worth scored in two plunges. Birtchfield failed in a placement attempt. Lentz quickly tied the score with his sensational return of the kickoff.

face's kick for the point failed to jk mear the bar. The Indians drove to mldfield as the quarter ended and as the second started Masters and Birtchfield formed the spearhead for an attack which carried across goal with Hollings-worth scoring. Again the placement failed. Two fine sprints of 25 end 18 yards by Birtchfield enabled William and Mary to reach the Guilford 12. A penalty set the Indians back but the power tactics continued for a first down on the two-yard line.

Howard ploughed across for a touchdown anI then missed the placement. Howard Runs 20 Tarda Aided by a 20 yard run by Howard, the Indians reached the. Carolinians 20 as the half ended.

ADD 2 Bartles, Lachman and Cleary Score, Patterson Standi Out, Line Play Improved Newport News high got off to i winning start in Virginia's Class A conference football race here yesterday afternoon at Saunders Stadium, beating Andrew Lewi of Salem 20 to 7 to sound a clear warning to the rest of the league rivals that the scholastic forces in this harbor will be no passive contenders for championship honors in this year's scramble for the Commonwealth' crown.

The Typhoon was mildly Impressive It scored three times in the first three period to put the game safely away before the invaders could register. The Bryantmen along the line and in the backfield were a better team than they were a week ego, the backs runnlnig and blocking harder and cleaner and the linemen showing more resourcefulness than they have yet demonstrated. It is a happy faculty of the Gold and Blues to get the breaks and casbi them in. Yesterday they turned these same breaks or Salem mistakes into score for themselves. A fumble, and Interference penalty and an intercepted pass all visiting misplays were the boomerangs that came back to land defeat in the lap of the lads from the western slopes of Ole Virginny.

These three errors, happenings that make or break a football team, helped tnake the home lads along with a generally superior running attack and a stouter defensive. Shoddy on Pass Defense Newport News was again shoddy on pass defense and once the Salem forces had found this weakness they concentrated on it most of the afternoon. In the fourth period they mixed their passing game with their best running thrust to drive 60 yards against the Typhoon reserves and then score from the six yard line against the varsity, which came in and failed to halt the march. Line Stronger With the Typhoon line breaking the way for Bartles, Cleary, Ford and Patterson, the home boys converted their first break into a touchdown in seven minutes of the first quarter. Massie and Mclntire, Typhoon flankmen who defended their wings well and were ever alert for a loose ball, grabbed the first break for their mates when the pair covered a fumble on the Salem 20.

From here the four Typhoon ball toters picked holes over Spital and Holmes and through guard to reach pay dirt in seven plays. Bartles went over on the fourth down from the five, making the scoring zone momentarily before being knocked back to the one yard line. Headlines-man Decker ruled that Bartles was over for the Instant th lfl.w twin ira and thus was fashioned the first score uj um league campaign. Patterson added the extra point by placement kick. With second stringers in charge in the second period, the locals unreeled their first open offensive, Lachman picking up considerable yardage on punt return and then thrusting to the Salem 18 on a 25 yard sprint of lateral, Ford to Lachman to Bartles.

There was interference yard pass, Lachman to Bartles, on the svM rn.ua me Daii was given to Newport News on th turn in.n hit to left side to score on the first noimes- try for the extra went wide.

Cleary spun oil the weak side, shook off the secondary nd scampered into the end sone for the score. Patterson was aain rwi on the extra point try. as Patterson that gave Newport News grand scoring chance in the fourth when he intercepted and ran 25 yards to the Salem six.

Hat assortment of spinners and laterals failed and the Typhoon was repulsed at the two after wasting a down on behind-the-line pass whm t.hir n. er play were netting steady gains. ine oaiem co-captains, Reynolds and Fisher, bore the brunt of the invading offensive, Reynolds doing most of the ball carrying and passing with Fisher a standout at guard.

2 GAMES, 22-4, B-fl Lavagetto Ties Major League Eecord With 6 for 6 in Opener; Rookie Hurls 2nd PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 23. The Brooklyn Dodgers put on a hit ting and pitching show in two acts today to sweep a doubleheader from the Philadelphia Phillies 22 to 4 and to 0, moving within one game of third place in the National league. Led by Harry (Cookie) Lavagetto, who made six consecutive hits to tie a modern major league mark, the Dodgers pounded three Philadelphia pitchers for 27 safeties and 48 total bases in the first game. Pete Coscarart, Johnny Hudson and Gene Moore hit home runs, driving in eight runs among them, and Lava getto' assortment included triple and a double.

He came to bat in the ninth with a chance to equal the record of seven straight hits set by Wilbert (Uncle Robbie) Robinson with the Baltimore Orioles June 10, 1892, but after hitting a long foul into the leftfield stands, drew a base on balls. Carl Doyle, a rookie-righthander from Memphis, making his first start in the National league, pitched a three-hitter for the second eame shut out.

It was apparent that a general mix- up i i Connecticut was responsible for the cancellation of the game which the Crabbers had al) year looked forward to and for which preparations had been made up until the latter part of the week when it became evi dent that Norwalk would not be able to come here. Jurt what caused the Norwalk team to notify Hampton high that it was thought "it was impossible" to come here was not clearly understood but high school officials gave the follow' ing explanation: Last week Coach Dick Esleeck said he had heard from the team saying it might be impossible to come to Virginia, but that the matter was be fore the school officials of Norwalk and that it was possible the con fusion might be cleared. Esleeck said that he immediately called the coach explaining that he had correspondence and statements from last year, when the game was scheduled, that Norwalk would be glad and would play the dedication game. He was told to send copies of the letters and agreement and that the "evidence" might influence school authorities of Norwalk. This the coach did but In later telephone con' versations with Norwalk he learned that the matter could not be defi nitely decided until tomorrow (Mon day) night when it was to be taken up at a meeting of school officials.

Hampton high authorities felt this would make the decision too late for the sale of tickets and dedicatory arrangements so negotiations were start ed for another opponent. Granby, a new high school that has attracted several ol xaaury mgn scnoois performers, agreed to come here Saturday for the tilt. H. Wilson principal of Hampton high school, said it was understood that the principal of NaT wal. hich school last year, who entered in the agreement with Hampton, had relinquished his post because of health and the present head would not approve the arrangements made last year.

He added that even though Norwalk should decide to come at the meeting tomorrow night, Hampton would reject the offer now because of the lateness 'of the- hour and: because Granby has accepted. City and school authorities plan to make the dedication program a gala occasion and hope to fill the new stadium to its seating capacity of 3,600. The complete program will be announced this week. Granby lost its opener yesterday afternoon to the Chester high of Chesterfield county near Richmond. The county school, one of the biggest in Virginia, has one of the best teams in the history of the institution.

They won 17 to 7, fumbles costing the Granby eleven two touchdowns. Thi substituted eleven from Norfolk is not expected to be as strong as the Norwalk team, but Hampton officials are looking for a tough game from the neighboring high which has a wealth of promising material. While Granby will in no wise present the type of opposition expected from Norwalk, thegame is expected to prove a test for Hampton whose team marched over Cradock in an opener Friday night in Sewanee stadium by a score of 23 to 6. In gaining the victory, the Crabbers suffered some set-backs through injuries that may keep several regulars on the bench and more evenly match the teams. In warming up before the Cradock gam Bob Begor, tegular end, and Shields collided as Begor chased a pass.

Shields a punt. Shields was knocked-out and Begor stunned but was able to go in the game and kick a 25-yard field goal and two points after touchdowns. He played in a dazed condition and once had to be removed. His nose was broken near the bridge, his eye and face cut badly and another cut was received on his lip. Shields, who is not a starter, was carried from the field Crot later revived.

After the game he was sent to the hospital in a dazed condition. His chin was badly injured by the compact. Elmer Wilson, who had been nursing an injured shoulder had that member hurt worse and played without the full use of one arm part of the time. Fuller, hurt in scrimmage, had his knee slightly hurt again and Bradd, who proved the star among newcomer, slightly injured. Gil 0 QRF0LK OIL A early in the second half when Creek-" man recovered a fumble on Guilford's 39 but bad pass from center lost 20 yards.

After a punt Guilford took to the air but the attack failed completely. Hickey and Birtchfield drove to Guilford's 20 as the third quarter ended. A 16-yard run by Howard put the ball on the Guilford "tive and Steve Lents went across for a touchdown. Howard's placement this time was good. Hickey put the William and Mary team In scoring position again by racing 30 yards with a punt to Guilford's ten.

He cut off tackle on the next play for a touchdown. His placement was blocked. William and Mary drove steadily Into Guilford territory just before the whistle sounded an end to the march. Indian supporters were cheered over the prospects for a team despite the lack of sparkle shown In the attack. The steadiness of the line and the coordinated play of the backs didn't look anything like as gloomy as the picture has been painted.

Sept. 23. (fl5) The University of North Caro Una's fast steppers, aided by a threatening aerial attack, ran rough shod over The Citadel to a 50 to 0 victory in the football opener for both elevens this afternoon.

A crowd of 26,000, including more than 20,000 high school students here as guests of the university, was brought to its feet on North Carolina's first offensive play when speedy George Sturnweiss beautifully raced 87 yards to a touchdown. The game was less than three minutes underway when Sturnweiss streaked away and before the first half ended he and his understudy, Jim (Sweet) Lelanne, had sparked the Tar Heels to 41 points. The Citadel's light brigade fought valiantly but the Cadets were able to muster but three first downs during the afternoon. North Carolina got 17. The game was plaed in typical Indian summer weather.

Sturnweiss and Lalanne were North Carolina's offensive standouts, but the plunging and blocking of Sadoff, Dunlke and Don and Charles Baker helped the Tar Heels no end.

Ted Williams helped the cause along with his 30th homer with one on in the third, a high wind carrying the ball into the distant right field bleacher barely in fair territory.

NEW YORK, Sept. 23.F) A dozen or so big college teams had brisk workouts today at the expense of those smaller squads that are annually sacrificed to enable their rivals to get the "feel" of competition, and thus the 1939 college football season got under way. There have been few noteworthy contests earlier this month and a couple of well-known teams were in action last night, but not until this afternoon was there anything like a general opening. Teams like North Carolina, Virginia, Virginia Military and Mississippi State in the South, Texas A.

and Arkansas in the Southwest and Iowa State in the Mid-West piled up the customary first-game big scores to get the Jump on conference rivals who aren't scheduled to play for another week or two. North Carolina turned in about the most impressive performance of the day as most of the major action was confined to the Southern front. The Tar Heels, expected to be among the leading rivals of Duke for the Southern conference crown, piled up a 60-0 score against South Carolina's Citadel in the seasons first conference eame. They scored 41 points in the first half. Results Scholastic Newport News 20; Andrew Lewi of Salem 7.
