Six Teams Still In Running As Gridiron Season Nears End by Tom Robinson With the football season drawing to a rapid close it looks like a scramble for a pot of gold with no less than six teams trying for first place honors. In the American League the strong Rockville team was up-ended and forced into a playoff by ever-ready VP-24. In the National League Admin, AFI and the Marine teams will be at each others thro-' ats all week long trying to cap- ture first place and make the playoff finals.

Case Surpasses Local Sharks The Naval Station Billiard tourney drew to a close this week with a very fine exhibition of ac- curacy by six finalists. At times even Willie Hoppe or should we say Willie Mosconi would have had to struggle to cope with the fine play of the three final win- ners. In the final match Case from Supply Department gave Moris- sette from VP-24 a going away present when he ran the last eight balls to eke our a 50 to 47 win and annex the championship. In the play leading up to the finals there were many close games with the third place finisher Humprey from the Message Cen- ter pulling the upset of the tour- ney when he clobbered the champ Case. This was the only loss suf- fered by Case and did not prevent his winning the tourney. Trophy presentation was conducted by Capt. Stanley Ellison, Command- ing Officer, Naval Station.

VP-24 threatened more than once at the Rockville five yard line but never hit paydirt. A good note for the first place Marines and a bad one Rockville during this game came when .^Rockville passing whiz, Daniel Taylor injured his hand badly on a defensive play. Admin 36 — Public Works 6 Public Works with a well ba- lanced ball club had the misfor- tune of meeting two Admin play- ers by the names of Daniels and Anderson. When the introduction was over Anderson had crossed the Public Works goal line no less than three times. Daniels at tailback befuddled the Public Works defense time and again with rollout tactics and short passes to Anderson. Out- standing linemen were big “Tiny” John Messer, Teddy Basset and Leo Donnely. VP-24 22 — Comptroller 14 VP-24 had to use every trick in their hat and a little luck be- fore turning back a very fine Comptroller team. For excitement and good football this was the finest game of the week. Until the last quarter it look- ed like Comptroller would pull the biggest upset of the season. With a few minutes to play and Comptrol- ler threatening on the VP-24 five yard line, Duhing of VP-24 inter- cepted a Murray pass on his own five yard line and scampered 75 yards for the game winning TD. Early in the game Murray of Comptroller took a sleeper pass on the sideline and rippel of 70 yards of brilliant broken field running for a TD. Marines 11 — Rockville 0 This was the game everyone had waited for and they were not dissapointed. The loss of Rockvil- le’s passing threat seemed to be the difference in the game as their ace chucker, Taylor had been injured in a previous game with VP-24. The game was dominated by defensive play on both teams with McCarthy of the Marine team de- livering the only offensive punch as he rambled 45 yards for the game’s only TD. He later split the uprights with a perfect 30 yard field goal to ice the game. As tension built up in the warn- ing minutes of the game, play be- came rougher and the Marines had a defenite advantage with unlimited substitution from the bench. Acosta of the Marines was the outstanding lineman of the game. Playoff Saturday May 2, will see the realization of the long awaited playoff finals, which promises to be a real thriller. Admin, Rock- ville, both Marine teams, VP-24 and AFI are still in the running and should provide many exciting moments during the last week of the season. (AFI) — Tenative. plans are being made to hold the second an- nual Air Forces Iceland Golf Tournament. T/Sgt. Kenneth Crist has been named to outline propos- ed rules for the tourney. While a firm date for the match has not been made it is expected to get underway in late May. With the new Keflavik golf course in operation it is planned to use that course for either 36 or 72 holes and then close the match at the Reykjavik golf course. Last year the tournament saw some 30 Air Forces Iceland of- ficers and aii-men participating. It is expected that this year’s play will exceed that number.
