die of the third quarter, Towe inter- cepted a pass. Then on the very next play Hutter, with a beautiful exhibi- tion of brokenfield running, reversed his field and eluded half the Miller School team to score standing up.
The last T.D. came when "Joltin' Joe" Barber intercepted a pass and romped thirty-seven yards through the Miller School team to score stand- ing up. V.E.S. combined great line and backfield play with superb coach- ing to win the initial game of the season.

A revengeful Bishop eleven took the field against Miller School on Oct. 4, and gained sweet revenge for
last year's 19-7 defeat with a 31-0 victory.
The Bishops' forward wall held like stone and continuously plastered th e Miller backs for losses. Spearheaded by th e terrific playing of Stephenson, Kemper, Emory, Chandler, W i Ie y, Powell a n d H u n t held t h e Miller School team to just twenty-six yards rushing. Miller School never pene- trated into V.E.S. territory further than the Bishops' thirty-four yard line.
The Bishops started a drive late in the first quarter. H utter snaked through for a 19 yard gain to put the ball on the Miller three. Joe Barber drove through for a yard as the quarter ended. Then Farinholt sneaked three for the T.D. on the sec- ond play of the second quarter. Towe's placement was perfect. Just before the half ended Farinholt hit

Virginia University was good: Duke was better. That's the story in a nut- shell as U. Va. fell from the unbeat- en ranks 21-7. One bright spot for the Cavaliers thou g h. They still haven't been shut out in their last 56 consecutive games.
In the U. Va.-Duke tilt, two school alumni played. Stu Harris, '49 and Howie Pitt, '50. Harris plays center for the Charlottesville club and Pitt is a right end for Duke. Also two Lynchburg boys performed well for
Duke, Billy Lea and Johnny Palmer. Off to a fine start; injuries hit, and the season record evens with t wo losses. That's the story of V.E.S. thus far in the gridiron season. Top men, Co-Captain Joe Barber, Joe Towe, Blair Farinholt and Bill Stephenson are most prominent losses. Towe is the only one certainly lost for the entire season. Can't beat injuries for up- setting a potentially fine team. W e
