Shrine Engagement

SAN FRANCISCO. Jan. l-(flF)
A smooth-operating band of cid-
lege all-stars brought the East Its
first football triumph' over the
West In five years Friday, ' edg-
' ing out the westerners 13 to 12 in
spine-tingling charity game be-
fore a near capacity crowd of
. 68,000 in Kezar stadium.
The two teams, evenly matched,
played a. brand of football as wide
, open as a church door, and it was
anybody's ball game until the H-
r nai gun. The - west had power
- aplerty on the hoof and the East
had the edge in fleetness afoot.
but both , outfits took to : the air
. early in this 18th annual Shrine
classic and yardage was reeled off
In spectacular fashion. ''
-- Two great opposing passers,
Colombia's Paul Governali for
the East, and Washington
State's ' Bob ' Kennedy for the
West, turned in handsome Jobs.
Governali tossed one touchdown
pass and paved the way for the
- East's : second score on another
:. aerial thrust. Kennedy, passing
fiercely all afternoon, scored on
'.a lateral and passed a long one
later to act up his (cam's sec
ond tally.
It was a matter of failures at
the try for point after touchdown
that gave the East its first win
:- over the West ; since : 1937 when
- Princeton's Ken Sandback kicked
field goal for a 8-0 victory.
.Speed and aerial trickery were
supposedly the East's main stock
In trade, aif against the West's
bulk, but the way the not-so-famous
westerners tossed the ball
around and cut fancy capers from
their strategic T-f ormation had
the easterners back on their heels
much of the game and forced
them to fight to the last minute
to preserve their narrow edge.
This is the way the touchdown
A period scoring went;
First smarter -Midway In the
period Steve Fllipowlcs, Ford

consin, who pulled the ball oat

. tackle from Marquette, booted
the Important place kick to
make It 7-9.
Second quarter - The West,
finding the Eastern line a little
"- tough began to shoot passes; Cali
1 f ornia's Jim Jurkovich and Ken
nedy doing the tossing. This aerial
offensive carried the West virtu
ally from its own goal line, where
4 Jurkovich intercepted a pass, to
f the Eastern seven. Here Tom
, Roblin, sub fullback from Oregon,
V lateralled to Kennedy,- who skip
ped around his left end to score.
The place kick try by Willie Za

back, hit the crossbar and bounced
back. The East still led, 7-6.
Third quarter The West tossed
a dazzling array of passes, one

nabbed the ball on the ten yard
line and stepped over. with no op
position. Zapalac again failed to
convert. This time his place kick
was blocked. The West-led 12-7.
