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.
During last weeks action some
of the game highlights looked

WIDE OPEN SPACES—Rockville’s
Right Halfback Bart Brown is ’off
to the races’ after giving would-
be tacklers the shake in last weeks
game against the Marines.
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.

Rockville 0 — VP-24 0
VP-24 surprised a very strong
Rockville club with stalwart ball
control and a grueling defensive
line. 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.
