Mary hero here Saturday by kicking a 20-yard fied goal that spelled a 3-0 victor over Virginia Tech The toast of the war camp Is Steve Bishop a leftfooted boo ter from Jamestown He consider contact football as a competitive sport until last drills The field goal on the sixth play of the fourth quarter ended the string of fair losses to the Gobblers Tech rallied from a 6-0 halftime deficit to win 20-6 last year two passes in the sustained march Charley Weaver started it with a five-yard slant Three plays later quarterback Dan Henning went 16 yards after finding his receivers covered taking the ball to the 49 Then faced with third down on his 49 Henning fired a strike to end Mike Debranski for 22 yards at the Tech 29 But the Gobblers held through three downs making the Indians face up to a fourth-and-one at the 20 The question was whether to go for a first down or call on Bishop missed from the 21 in the first period 1-9 record Next Saturday Virginia then Navy Thrills were lacking for the most part in this battle that attracted about 10000 fans under a hot steamy sun And most of the excitement came in the second half Just -before the Indians launched the 80-yard drive that produced the three-pointer the Gobblers missed a touchdown when halfback Darrell Page dropped pass near the 10 after getting behind defender Sam Miller The play started on the 40 The Indians started their drive seemingly forgetful of their Intended emphasis on passing In fact they hit only Scores Fullback Stan Penkunas got the call and slanted left around the tightened Tech defenses He battered his way to the eight Halfback Dick Kern powered for six to the two but the Gobblers with their top defenders digging In held for two more downs with tackle George Gear and end Kyle Albright doing yeoman work That led to the call for Bishop The man who'd somehow missed high school football then three more years here at sailed his boot true His only previous game-type kicking ex perience came in the spring game when he kicked four of five extra points The Joy almost last as it looked as if the Gobblers would be able to enjoy another victory over Cartwright and fullback Tommy Walker behind some liard-rock blocking carried the Gobblers' hopes for 56 yards in 14 plays All of it was on the ground except for a 10-yard pitch from Cartwright to end Continued on Page 5 Col 3 By Peter Tattersall The

off to a 13-0 lead in the first quarter fell behind 26-13 with 15 seconds gone in the third quarter and came on with the last two scores of the contest to pull out the victory Rideout's Faming The passing of Mel Rideout and the running of five fleet halfbacks who shuffled in and out of the game with every series of downs gave the Spiders their offensive punch Trailing 26-20 late in the third period the Spiders marched 38 yards in seven plays with third string halfback Ken Wil bourne going over for the winning score from the three yard line The final tally came with five seconds gone in the last quarter Rideout's perfect placement provided the winning margin as defense was able to stall the Pirates fourth quarter scoring bid at their own 34 late in the final period Richmond scored twice in the first period to start the contest in rout fashion The first score came on a 70-yard drive following the opening kickoff The running of halfbacks Ken Stoudt and Brent Vann and a
