Eliot Shuts Out Kirkland Eleven Clinching Second

In a game marked by fumbles and broken plays, the Eliot House gridders defeated Kirkland on Tuesday, 14-0, to clinch second place behind Leverett in the house football standings.

Eliot's sophomore quarterback Bill Cherry bulled into the endzone on a two yard sneak, capping a first-half 70 yard drive. Cherry took the ball over again for two extra points and gave his team an 8-0 halftime lead. In the second half, Eliot halfback Russ McGosland ran for 10 yards and the final touchdown.

In Tuesday's game, Dunster edged past Adams, 6-0. Dunster halfback Dan Kopans scored the winning points, spinning off tackle for two yards to climax an 80-yard Dunster scoring march.

Adams drove to the Dunster ten yard line in the last quarter but the Dunster defense toughened and stopped the touchdown threat. With the victory, Dunster clinched sixth place and will travel to Yale next Friday with Leverett, Eliot, Quincy, Kirkland and Winthrop. Floyd S. Wilson, director of Intramural Athletics, added some end-of-season suspense to the league by upholding Winthrop's protest of its November 6 game against Leverett. With a minute and a half remaining in the game. Winthrop, trailing 6-0, had a third down on the Leverett two yard-line. When the referee called an illegal procedure penalty on Winthrop, a dispute broke out and the game was never finished. The last minute and a half are scheduled to be replayed.
