U. D. WELCOMES ALUMNI AS HOMECOMING PLANS ARE COMPLETED

With the coming of another foot­ball season here a t the University of Dayton, plans have been completed for the annual Homecoming week­end, which was such a memorable event las t year.

If you were not fortunate enough to have been present last year, you surely have heard many of your friends speak about the fun packed reunion week-end. If you have not a lready done so, most probably you are making your own plans to be right on the spot for this year's cele­bration.

Things start happening on Hal­loween. The traditional bonfire and pep rally begins at 8 :30 p.m. on " Old Varsity," Friday, O ctober 31. Brief speeches will be made by the coaches, players, and guests. The U . D . band and the cheerleaders will be present to lead the songs and cheers.

MASS A Ma s will be offered a t 10 :00

SCRANTON BOWS TO DAYTON FLYERS 28-6 IN SEASON OPENER

Overpowering an out-manned Scranton Royal eleven, 28-6, the Dayton Flyers ushered in the 1947 football eason Saturday, September 27, at the U.D. stadium. The win made Coach Joe Gavin's debut as a college football coach a complete success.

Statistically, the Flyers showed a total gain of 360 yards from scrim­mage, compared to the 276 compiled by Scranton. 144 of the Flyer yards were gained through the air on four completed passes in nine attempts. Scranton soared 119 yards on . five completions of ten attempts. In the kicking department, too, the Flyers held the edge. H alfback Art Bok, displaying his new- found punting talent for the first time in the Scran­ton game, averaged 40 yards. The Royal quarterback, Mike DeNoia, hit a 33Y2 yard average.

The Flyers first scoring opportu­nity came after eight minutes of play in the first quarter. Mike DoNoia took Art Bok's kick on his own three. H e took three steps and met as many Flyers. The ball skidded from his grasp, and T ackle Bill Lange recov­ered for the Flyers. On the second play following the fumble, the Flyers quarterback, Ed "Chief" Toscani, lateraled to Art Bok, and the speedy Toledoan carried around left erid for the score. Sure-footed Bob Dob­bins added the extra point.

Late in the same quarter, the Fly­ers missed on another scoring at-

tempt. Toscani intercepted a pass on the Royal 45 and scampered to the 19 before he was stopped. A five­yard penalty and a ten-yard loss, when the Chief was trapped behind the line of scrimmage on an at­tempted pass, killed the scoring chance.

Early in the second quarter an ex­change of punts gave the Flyers pos­session of the ball on the Royal 34. On the very first play, K en Boxwell, Flyer fullback, took the ball on a reverse, cut around end to the side­lines, and then battered his way to pay dirt. Dobbins again converted.

La ter in the second quarter the Flyers added their third touchdown. The Flyers took the ball at midfield. Boxwell smashed the line for 12. Bok threaded his way off left tackle, speeding to the Royal seven before being brought down. An offside pen­alty again t Scranton brought the ball to the two. Boxwell picked up one. Then Art Bok ripped through for the fin al yard and the touchdown.

The gun at halftime ended anoth­er Flyer threat in the second quarter. T aking the ball on downs at the Scranton 41 , Flyer quarterback, Joe Ducey, pitched a completed pass to End Gus Shroyer which brought the ball to the 18. After one play, an incomplete forward pass, the gun sounded endin~ the half and the Flyers scoring threat.

A pass in the third quarter ended the Flyers' scoring for the day. Drop­ping back from his own 22, Fresh-

4

man quarterback Joe Zaleski heaved to End and Captain Dick Dahn. Dahn took the ball on the Scranton 48 and outran the Royal secondary for the score. Dobbins again con­verted, bringing his afternoon total to four conversions in four attempts.

With the advent of the fourth quarter, Coach Joe Gavin began to substitute freely. With the third string of the Flyer lineup on the field , Scranton came through for their lone score. In a play duplicating the Fly­ers' final touchdown play, the Roy­als' Mike DoNoia tossed a pass from his own 26 to Halfback Tony Orsini on the 45. Orsini, like D ahn in the previous play, carried the ball all the way for the Scranton score. The kick failed to clear the eros bar and scor­ing for the afternoon was complete. Final core : D ayton 28, Scranton 6.

Flyers Travel To Chattanooga

Smarting from a 34-7 beating ad­ministered by the Chattanooga Moc­casins last season, the Dayton Flyers journey to the T ennessee school Fri­day, October 24, for a night contest, hopeful of avenging last season's de­feat.

The distance of the T ennessee school, coupled with the interference of classes by the Friday date, will make a mass migration to Chatta­nooga an impossibility. H ence, the Alumnus urges the University of Dayton Alumni, in and around Chattanooga, to lend their support to the Flyer cause. A few fans will be able to make the trip, and if the Alumni join these in cheering the Flyers, the Squad should be helped a long way toward the hoped-for victory.

Dayton has played two games with Chattanooga previous to this en­counter. In 1942, the Flyers downed the Tennessee eleven 14-12. Last sea­son, as fans well remember, the Chat­tanooga Choo Choo, powered by the Moccasin's high-scoring Gene Rob­erts, rolled over the Flyers 34-7.

Comparing records for this season shows a win for Dayton and a loss for Chattanooga. The Flyers trimmed Scranton 28-6 and the Moccasins fell before Mississippi State 19-0. H owever, the same Mississippi elev­en downed Chattanooga, 41 -7, last season.

FLYERS DEFEAT CINCY BEARCATS 26-21 Saturday, O ctober 11 , the D ayton

Flyers took to the road for the first time as they traveled to Cincinna ti to meet the powerful Cincinna ti Bear­cats.

The Spirit Committee of UD sponsored a Migration Trip for the game. A special train was char­tered on the Baltimore and Ohio and Flyer students fans, and alumni went cnmas to the game, to lend their vocal support to the Flyer cau e.

The Bearcats have played one game as the Alumnus goes to pre s. In a hard-fought con test, Kentucky roll ed over Cincinnati 20-0. Flyer fans may find a similarity between the Cincinnati-Kentucky brawl and the Flyer-Bearcat contest of las t sea­son. Coach Joe Gavin, scouting the Bcarcats a t the game, stated that the mayhem and bloodshed were orne­thing to behold. Fans, recalling the 19-0 loss to Cincinnati la t ca on, will remember that tha t contest, too, took on many of the features of a street-corner brawl. On tha t occa­sion, the Flyers were the main uf­ferers from the rough play. They managed to hold the Bearcat to a scoreless tie at the half, but the loss of many players via the injury route weakened the Flyers to such an ex­tent that Cincinnati had things pretty much her own way in the second half.

R eviewing the fifteen games play­ed by the two schools, reveal a big Flyer edge. Dayton has won twelve of the contests. However, in recent years Cincinnati has risen to gridiron prominence and the Bearcats now hold two successive wins over Day­ton . This year, the Flyer are hope­ful that their "T" -powered off en e will bring them to victory's road again.

Coming from behind twice, the Dayton Flyers won a brui ing, smash­ing upset victory over the Cincin­nati Bearcats Saturday night, O cto­ber 11 , in Cincinnati's Nippert stadium. The 26-21 win makes it three in a row for the Flyers and places them well a long the road for what could be the first undefeated cason in Dayton's hi tory.

The Flyers faced a seven point defi cit almo t before the game tart­cd . Roger Stephens, Cincinnati' grea t back, grabbed the opening kickoff on his own ten, and ran a ll the way into pay dirt. J e sen added the extra point.

The Flyers struck back quickly as they combined a strong running a t­tack with some excellent passing to tie the score. In the second quarter they took a short-lived 13-7 lead but

CAUGHT ON ONE OF THOSE RARE OCCASIONS WHEN ALL OF THE coach­ing staff was present, may we present the four men responsible for the progress of the University of Dayton football squad . Left to right: Danny Piloseno, line coach; John Marshall , line and frosh coach; Joe Quinn, backfield coach; and head coach, Joe Gavin .

the Bearcats swarmed back with two touchdowns to hold a 21-1 3 lead at the half.

In the third quarter, the Flyers roared into the lead again, never to be headed. A pass from Toscani to Bok resulted in one score, and an­other pass, this time from Toscani to Babione, brought the final tally.

After Stephen' runback of the opening kickoff for the fir t core, the F lyer's smashed their way to the Cincinnati 18. Runs by Bok and Delp, and a pass from Toscani to J anaszek accounted for the yardage. Then another pass from Toscani to Dahn failed and Cincinnati took over.

The Flyer stopped the bearcats cold there and a fter three tries, Cir:­cinnati kicked.

Fran Quinn grabbed the kick on his own forty and carried for seven­teen yards to the Cincinnati 43. Bok, Delp and Janaszek combined to gain a first down on the Cincinnati 30, and from tha t point, Toscani hurled to D ahn who was shoved outside on the three yard line. J anaszek drove throug-h center for ix points and Dobbins' kick tied the score a t seven all.

Early in the second quarter, Jim Hanby recovered a Cincinnati fumble on the Bearcat seven. Two

5

plays la ter, Art Bok took a lateral from Toscani and whirled his way around end to make the core 13-7.

Cincinnati drove swiftly after the next kickoff ripping off five quick plays to break into a 14-1 3 lead . A pass from O 'M alley to Richard was the payoff. Later in the same quar­ter, Zaleski fumbled while trying to throw a pass and Cincinnati took over, on the Flyer 26. Two line play , a short pass from O'Malley to Richards, and Stephens carried for eleven yards and the touchdown. J essen added the extra point and Cincinnati led 21-13.

Starting the second ha lf, thing looked black for the Flyers. But, un­daunted, the Flyers came back quickly to put themselves back in the ball game. Shortly after the kickoff, a serie of fumbles gave the Flyers the ball on the Bearcat 35. After runs by Bok, Toscani, and J anaszek gave Dayton a first down on the 24, Toscani dropped back and hurled a touchdown pass to Bok. Dobbins kicked for the extra poin t, and the Flyers pushed up seven points, but were till one point be­hind, a the score stood 21-20.

Cincinnati couldn't gain after the next kickoff as they kicked to Day­ton on their own 47. Johnny Delp ripped through right tackle, and

behind good interference, raced to the Bearcat 20. J anaszek smashed through to the ten but a latera l then fail ed and the Flyers were then chased back to the 17. Then Tos­cani drilled a pass over center to Dale Babione who was in the open and ran over without a hand being laid upon him. Dobbins' kick was blocked but the Fivers led 26-21.

That ended the scoring for the game but in the waning minutes Cin­cinnati drove ' to the Flyer nine where Ray Munger grabbed a Bear­cat pass and carried it out to the 40 to end the threat. ·

Statistically, the Flyers showed 13 first downs compared to Cincinnati's 11. In rushing too, the Flyers held the edge as they gained 239 yards com­pared to the Bearcats 145.
