Shortly after the second quarter began, with Rich- mond ahead 7-0. the Wildcats' junior fullback, Ken Conger, broke away over right end and dashed 55 yards for a an apparent touchdown that would have put visitors back in condition. But the brilliant run cancelled out by a holding penalty. As it turned out. Davidson got only one more chance to enter the scoring column--that one in the dying moments: of the same period when a pass interception helped the Wildcats get to the Richmond 20.

Here, though, Quarterback Littie passed. one too. many 'and Theodose loped in to intercept a first down pitch on the Richmond 5: prancing the rest of the long distance to goal for Richmond's final score.
