The Catamounts, on fine passing by Ralph Kehoe, reached the seven In the second quarter but lost the pigskin on downs, while they were knocking at the door twice in the final session, aided by penalties and Kehoes passes, but never could complete the distance. The Wildcats wasted little time showing their supremacy by rpmping to a touchdown in 11 plays after the kickoff. Bowes scored from the two ending an 80-yard march, featured by his 29 -yard run.

Townsend booted his first of five extra points, which now gives him a record of 19 for 25 on the year.
