Southern Conference win of the season posted all the points they By HAROLD PEARSON Times-Dispatch Sports Writer West Virginia ran its string of successes over the University of Richmond to seven last night at City Stadium but it was not as easy as the score might indicate The final score was 16-3 and it was really indicative only of the ineffectiveness of the Spider offense and did not show how the UR defenders had taken the fight to the visitors until they began to put in too much overtime That was in the third period late and from that point it was really amazing that the Mountaineers did not run the score even higher If not amazing a tribute to the occasional second winds the overworked defense managed to muster During the first two periods the defenders faltered only to quarterback Bernie Galiffa's passes late in the opening quarter and were burned by a 16-yardcr Galiffa to flanker Chris Potts for the six pointer with 4:20 left that woul really have been enough That 54-yard 37 on GaWffa accounted for most of the West Virginia offense in the first half although it seemed the Mountaineers were always in possession Actually they had the ball for only nine more plays than the Spiders but they were getting first downs at eight while Richmond managed three Total yardage was 129-79 for the first two quarters But it took an interception by Spider sophomore linebacker Pat Kelly and a 32-yard return to get UR Into west Virginia territory (38) The Spider attacking force managed to get to the seven thanks greatly to a face mask Keydet Jim Ingram (28) Wildcats Halfback Luke time
