BY DAVE BROOKER Experience told the story down at the Marquette stadium. Playing under the lights for the first time, playing against big time competition for the first time, and playing with a squad consisting of many first year men, Lawrence just wasn’t any match for the big, powerful Marquette aggregation they were called upon to face. Not even the staunchest of the Vike supporters hoped for a win, but they did want to see the Law rence "11” hold the score down. When Bandy intercepted two passes early in the game, it looked like it might be a close ball game, but when Copoulos went through for 43 yards and a touchdown a few minutes later, everyone knew that Marquette wasn't going to encounter any trouble. The Vikes played good football and looked okay on defense as long as Marquette didn’t try anything tricky, but they just couldn't catch on to those reverses and fakes until it was too late. Marquette, with its abundance of fast backs, reeled off thirteen plays in which they made li> yards or more! Undoubtedly the added experience which the Vikes pickcd up in the Marquette contest will help them when they meet St. Thomas in their return match tomorrow. St. Thomas barely eked out a 6-0 win at Whit ing Field a few weeks ago, and they'll be lucky to repeat that win to morrow. The Vike passing attack has shown definite improvement in the last few weeks, and with Bandy, Barrington, Bartosic and Messer all ready and able to carry the ball, the Vikings are sure to make a great battle of it. Whoever wins that game at the Twin Cities will have to cross that goal line more than once. • • * Bartosic is the most improved player on the Vike squad. Dean has really looked good in the last couple of games, showing terrific drive in those plunges through the line.
