The Cavaliers failed to get th first down after the kickoff and lost possession when Quillen punted to the GW 17, Weaver bringing the ball back to the 34.

The Colonials lost a yard on two tries and Weaver punted. The ball struck a Colonial before touching the ground and the poor boot, plus the 15-yard penalty for interference, placed Virginia in charge at the GW 32, from where they marched to the deciding touchdown. The outstanding player was Ciemniecki, six-foot, 190-pound junior from Elizabeth, N. who flitted and fluttered around the Cavaliers in a fine offensive show. He carried 14 times for 123 yards, almost nine yards a try.

And he did yeoman ork on defense along with DiclC Gaspari, another junior who did linebacking chores. John Polzer, Virginia's great guard, was the outstanding defensive, performer, racking up Colonial runners time after time for what bit of defensive display the Cavaliers presented. Aiding Polzer were Henry Jordan, the giant tackle from Warr wick, Francis Fannon and Ben Pe-trilli. The Cavaliers, who journey to State College next week to meet rugged Penn State, failed once again to capitalize, on their fine corps of running backs. Neither Bill Bonney nor Rives Bailey had the necessary finesse to handle the reins and both ended up with minus yardage totals, Bonney losing seven yards and Bailey 22.
