Pass Pays

Baglien's score capped off the
second-half Devil surge after the
Cavaliers had completely
dominated play in the first half.
A 44-yard Gene Arnette to Joe
Hoppe aerial put the Wahoos on
the scoreboard early in the second
quarter. The usually-reliable Braxton
Hill missed his first extra point
of the season in nine attempts and
the Cavaliers led, 6-0.

The vociferous Scott Stadium
partisans-swelled by an unusually
large number of dates and alumni
-saw the underdog Wahoos muff
several chances to enhance their
lead before the halftime intermission.
Two Peter Schmidt field
goal attempts-one of 38 yards,
and the other of 39-were wide of
the mark. A brilliant broken-field
running exhibition put on by tailback
Frank Quayle for a fifty-yard
gain was called back from the
Duke 15 by a holding violation.
And a pass from Gene Arnette
to Bob Rannigan, who suffered a
broken arm in the game and will
miss the rest of the season, just
slipped out of the sophomore's
grasp on the Duke 4 yard-line.
