Porter’s once-beaten team from the District of Columbia completely throttled the Yellow Jackets’ offense. limiting West Virginia State to three first downs.To add insult to injury, Howard kept its goal line uncrossed this season by rushing when the Bisons recovered a fumble inside the one.West Virginia State used a tricky reverse on a kickoff return following Howard’s fifth touchdown to streak into scoring position. The Jacket’s dangerous return artist, Jeff Good, received the kickoff and surrendered the ball to Warren Anderson, who followed a wall of Mockers for a 67-yard finback, to Howard’s 21.Wayne Holland. Good, Bob Christian, Jim Charley and Cnrt Calloway ground out a pair of first downs to Howard’s one.

The pass went through a pair of State defenders into Warren’s arms in the end zone.Banks wound up completing 12 of 18 passes for 159 yards and Davis carried seven times for 121 yards.West Virginia State’s Calloway carried 12 times against Howard’s rock-ribbed defense for 47 yards.On defense, Ray Davidson of the Jackets made 11 stops and had four assists, Dwight Reed collected nine tackles and four assists and Oliver Cosby racked up seven stops and seven assists.HWirtf, O^C...............7 * 14—A*StiH« d t 0 *How — Warren 27 pass from M.
