UCLA's Kirk Wilson had just punted 53 yards. The ball slithered parallel to the Washington goal ine and stopped about six inches away. Dick McVeigh, a Washington end, went behind his own goal line to kick out of danger on first down.

The ball sailed straight up in the air and finally was recovered by UCLA's Don Shinnick on the Washington two. Three plays later UCLA had its first touchdown and was on the way to a 13-8 victory. Like to hear aome more? Well, there was the punt in the Catawba-Appalachian game that bounced down field, was touched by a member of the kicking team but never was blown dead. Willie Campagna of Catawba watched the Appalachian man walk away, then picked up the ball and started to walk away himself. Pretty soon be started to run. Before ha stopped he had run 70 yards for a toucbdown that won the game 14-7.

The ball was placed 15 yards from the sidelines and Cameron went into a huddle. They huddled near the sideline, not over the ball.

A halfback grabbed it and, behind the entire Cameron team, ran 87 yards for a touch down. "The movies didn't show any thing because the cameraman wasn't ready.
