For A Big Bear Typical of the hard play by the University of Maine Saturday is this one-yard blast 'by Bob Farrell for the first touchdown against Hofstra and the hole was opened for him John By OWEN OSBORNE Saturday offered poor flying weather 1 Much of the aerial traffic was grounded including the Flying Dutchmen of Hofstra University as the University of Maine put the wraps on a heralded attack and presented its best offense of the season The combination was good for a 42-7 decision over the Dutchmen and a record of 3-5 "We used just half of the first period to get our first touchdown and hit hard at the start I think that was the big part of the said Maine Coach Walter Abbott Upset Experts Because of lack of experience on offense there were few who gave his club a chance of winning more than one game this year The best chance was considered against Vermont also with veteran problems But Abbott had his club' keyed for the finale and it left Hofstra with a woefully Weak attack after that first bombardment Everybody got into the kilL Every last healthy Bear got some action many of them in the second period Two in the first period and three in the second took much of the starch from the Dutchmen They tried going over the Bears by firing 30 passes but only six were completed one for the lone touchdown in the final period It was big day for Bob Hamilton He did much of the early lugging and with the men up front punching out holes he started the yardage parade' it took 18 olays for Maine to grind out its first six points Hamilton carried on 11 of them and Bob Farrell the rest including the last yard Jim Fitzgerald was just as Fighters On Card Heavyweight contenders Sonny -Liston George Chuvalo and Leotis Martin and two former champions Ismael Laguna and

(50) and John out defender Ray Hansen line much of the game as Photo by Maher) These men' performed so admirably that it had to be frustrating to see that one drive pay off with the winning tally That was a 78-yard march that was sparked by thevassing of Tufts quarterback Pete Co- hen who completed three en route induding the scoring toss a 17-yarder to end Dick Gia-chetti who beat his man across the middle at the goal line But the second quarter was all Bowdoin With the defense halting the Jumbos cold the Polar Bears rolled 50 yards to the Jumbo two Here on fourth down Delahanty entered the game to slam hid first field goal squarely through the uprights from an angle to the left Femino made his fumble recovery on the Bowdoin 43 with only 36 seconds remaining to half-time 3 Hardy hit sophomore end John Amrol on the Tufts 45 and then with 14 seconds left connected with Rogers on the 34 Another Completion this one to sophomore half back Mike Jackson at the 20 left only three seconds

schoolboys take over and If got 'em all figured out you have to be doing your thing By HUGH LORD BRUNSWICK They played FOOTball here Saturday And the foot of Ken Rubinstein of Tufts offset that of John Delahanty as the Jumbos eked out a 7-6 victory over the Polar Bears in a game that saw more defensive heroics than offensive prowess The hard-nosed Bowdoin defensive unit which saw quite a bit more action thgn the offensive group: failed to halt the Jumbos on only one drive during the day giving up a first period touchdown and extra-point boot From then on the Polar Bear defense was pretty much impenetrable as Delahanty kicked a pair of field goals and the Bowdoin offense watched a number -of its scoring threats just miss-fire As a result Coach Jim boys in black had to settle tor a 2-5 season while the visiting Jumbos upped their seasonal mark to 5-2 Yet Lantz has reason to look forward to the 1969 season with only five of his 22 offensive and defensive starters in game due to
