Oct. 19 (AP) Long runs characterized the play Saturday as the nation's list of un beaten college football teams was cut almost in half. Army, back at the ton of the heap as the No. 1 club, shook Glenn Davis, its Mr. Outside, loose for 66 yards and a touchdown and then unleashed Mr. Inside.. Doc Blanchard, for 93 yards and an other counter as the Cadets ham mered out their 23rd consecutive victory. This time previously un. blemished Columbia was the vie. urn, 48-14. A 47-yard ' pass and run play. engineered by Bobby Layne, gave lexas its third touchdown in its 20-0 romp over Arkansas, the Razorbacks' first defeat. Sprints o 65 and 69 yards brought Iowa home the 13-0 winner over Indi ana in the Big Nine's biggest sur prise. . i Longest run of the day, how ever, was turned in by End Ed Powell of Florida A. & M. who intercepted a pass three yards in his own end zone and scampered 103 yards for the marker that gave his team a 7-0 decision over Mor ris Brown. Trippl Goes 70 Short, consistent gains brought Tennessee a 12-0 triumph over Alabama in one of the day's most important clashes and shot Coach Bob Neyland's record to 36 con secutive victories. But that was the exception. Charlie Trlp'pi, Georgia's famed back, snagged an Oklahoma A. & M. pass and romped 70 yards for one score in his team's 33-13 vic tory. Jim Austin of Missouri burst tniough the Iowa State line for 57 yards as his team won, also 33-13. ueorge Guerre went 52 yards, then 43 as Michigan State sooiled Penn State's homecoming; 19-18. ine lowa win over Indian was the most lopsided in the Big Nine. Northwestern and Michigan strug gled to a 14-14 deadlock, a score mat was matched exactly bv Pur. due and Ohio State. Buddy Young, who broke loose for the first Illi. nois counter, and his mates had to go all out to get past Wisconsin, 27-21. Minnesota drubbed Wyo-1 mmg, 46-0. Pennsylvania continued to give evidence of power in taking apart Virginia, another unbeaten team until Saturday, by a 40-0 score and' Harvard, gradually gaining eastern prestige, humbled Coast Guard,' 65-0. i Navy' Dumped Again ' Brown spilled Dartmouth, 20-.13, and Syracuse dumped Hoiy Cross 21-12, in a pair of Eastern sur prises th'it equalled the Miehigan State victory. Cornell pulled abreast. Yale, 6-6, and Herman Wedemeyer guided St. Mary's to its fifth win over Fordham. 33-2. Little Delaware bumped Gettys burg, 27-6, for its 25th straight triumph. North Carolina, which previous ly had never scored on Navy, got enough tallies this time to defeat the Midshipmen, 21-14, with Charles Justice the hero. Duke, Army's guest in New York City next Saturday, crushed previously unbeaten Richmond, 41-0, and Vanderbilt bowed to Kentucky, 10-7. Miami, playing Its only game of the year in daylight, found its way around to the extent of a 20-13 decision over Florida. In a rugged Southern Conference feud, North Carolina State subdued Wake For est 14-6. Furman handled The Cit adel, 14-0, and Tulane's young sters mastered Auburn, 20-0. Texas Christian tumbled to the bottom of the Southwest Confer ence on a 14-0 loss to Texas A. & M., and Texas Tech, which would like a bid to that circuit, belted Baylor, 13-6. Oklahoma counted 14 points in the last period to spill Kansas State, 28-7, and a Nebraska field goal dumped Kansas from the un beaten list, 16-14. The University of California at Los Angeles mastered the Golden Cubs of California, 13-6, in the Coast Conference's most impor tant fray. Southern California got a measure of revenge for all the criticism the Trojans had to take during the week, , blanking Wash ington by a 28-0 margin. San Francisco traveled all the way to Memphis for a 48-20 drub bing by Mississippi State but the happiest team south of the . iason Dixon line probably is that of lit tle Louisiana Tech. That eleven stopped Mississippi 7-6, in the rain. BARTEL SIGNED SACRAMENTO, Oct. 19.
