Augustine 0 Union 48 Buck 6 SPORT NEWS Howard Downs Virginia State 13 to 0 Charleston, W. With a fast running attack behind a low, hard driving line, and a defense that threw the opposition for a loss of more yards than gained in rushing, Howard University defeated West Virginia State College here Saturday October 17, by the score of 13 to 0. "Goldie" Perkins, the new Bison backfield flash, scored both of Howard's touchdowns. Hall place kicked for the extra point; but the game's supreme sensation was Lee at left end on defense. In every test, Howard's line held like a stone wall, as indicated by the fact that West Virginia did not make one first down without the aidof a forward pass or a penalty.

Firit Period Successive gains by Marshall and Perkins, and a ten yard pass from Marshall to Hall in a sustained drive of 48 yards gave Howard the ball with first down on West Vir ginia's two yard line. Marshall failed to gain through center, and Perkins was stopped in an effort to go through right tackle; but on the third down, Perkins cut through the left of the line for a touchdown. Hall place kick for the extra point was low. Howard 6 West Virginia 0. Second Period After an exchange of punts Barns caught a 30 yard pass and was loose but fell on Howard's 20 yard line, with nobody between him and the goal.

The Bison's defense tightened, throwing the Yellow jackets or a ten yard loss in three downs, and grounded an attempted pass over the goal line. Hall kicked out of danger, but West Virginia, with the aid of two successive penalties of 15 yards each on Howard for roughing, brought the ball back to 20 yard line as the half ended. Howard 6 West Vir ginia 0. Third Period Hall returned the kick off for 35 yands and kicked from scrimmage formation on the second down out of bounds on West Virginia's three yard line. Ross kicked back to Hall on Howard's 40 yard line, when West Virginia was penalized 15 yard for interferehce with a fair catch.

Marshall drove through center for ten yards. Johnson made a yard off right tackle. On a second attempt Perkins broke through center, stiff armed four attempted tacklers and dodged the safety man in a 34 yard run for Howard's ertmd touchdown. Hall place kicked for the extra point. Howard 13 West Virginia 0.

Fourth Period Following Edwards 50 yard run back of the kick off on three successive plays, Lee and Mack threw the Vellowjackets for a. ,27 yard loss in the smearing attempted end runs from kick formation. Howard was satisfied to defend its margin and elected to kick, while West Virginia threw passes in desperation, completing four out of eight attempts, the last one being inter cepted by Smith, Howard's sub quarter as the game ended.
