Texas, California, Ohio State Major Victims Tennessee, Michigan State Remain Unbeaten wf.w vnmc. Oct. 2n (jpi California, tne io. i lenm in xne country fell before the sledge hammer second hall blows of Southern California Saturday, 21 14 fnr Itu first rn 0 u la r season de feat in four years but Tennessee and Michigan state, jmo. 2 ana 3, respectively, continued their un beaten skeins. Tennessee had a good workout et the expense of Alabama, one of the big Southeastern Confer ence disappointments, and won it with no trouble, 27-13. The game was close for the first half which ended in a 7-all standoff, but the Vols rushed over three scores in the second half. Spartans Behind Michigan State played its usual game, which means the Spartans had to come from behind to pull out a 32-21 verdict over Penni State. The Nittanty Lions led, 14-1 13, at one point in the third I period but Jim Ellis and Leroy Bolton sprinted for two scores and Don McAuliff threw for an other and that added up to the Spartans fifth triumph in a row. Except for Texas and Texas A&ItT, all the teams in the top ten came through without scratch. Georgia Tech, No. 5 knocked Auburn from the ranks of the undefeated, 27-7. Mary land, No. 7, had trouble, but pre vailed over North Carolina, 14-7. Illinois No. 8, whipped Washing ton, 27-20; Princeton, No. 9 slaughtered Lafayette, 60-7, for its 17th straight, and Baylor, No. 10, stopped Texas Tech, 40-20. Ohio State Humbled With the exception of Southern California's surprise win and un derdog Indiana's 32-10 victory over Ohio State, which had high hopes of winning the Big Ten championship, there were no up-! sets of note. I Defending champion Michigan polished off Iowa. 21-0, and Wis consin beat Purdue, 31-7, in other league games. Notre Dame and Army went In opposite directions, but neither result was a surprise, while Fenn served notice that it was not ready to be counted out of the Ivy League race by dropping Columbia, 28-13. The Lions, up to Saturday, were the only un scored on major team in the country. Notre Dame ran up a 33-0 mar gin over Pitt, and Army reached the post-war depth in its foot ball fortunes by bowing to Har vard, an Ivy League team that has been consigned to the bottom of the heap, 22-21.- Cornell, the heir-apparent to the Ivy League crown, took care of one of its threats, Yale, 27-0. j Brown and Dartmouth both went outside the league for their ac tion, the Bears going down before Colgate, 32-14, and Dartmouth recording 1 14-0 victory over Syracuse. Navy Sunk In the midwest, Oklahoma triumphed over Kansas, 33-21, and Colorado overcame Kansas State, 20-7, in Big Seven games, while Minnesota defeated Ne braska Bobby Reynolds-less Nebraska 39-30. Northwestern, which has developed into one of the Big Ten favorites, sunk Navy, 16-7, and Iowa State turned back Missouri, 21-14. Mississippi topped Tulane, 25- 6, in another southern headliner, and William and Mary outscored North Carolina State, 35-28. Vir ginia defeated VMI, 34-14, and Duke slapped down Virginia Tech, 55-6. San Francisco rammed Ford ham, 32-26, and Holy Cross took care of New York U., 53-6, in the east. Pros Suspend Groza, Beard CHICAGO, Oct. 20 (P) The jpreadlng collegiate basketball lix tcandal engulted the University of Kentucky's fabulous 1948-49 team one of the greatest in the history of the sport. Investlgatori from the New York District Attorney's office seized the two former All-Amer ica greats, Alex Groza ana Kalpn Beard, in Chicago, and ex-Kentucky team captain Dale Barn stable in Louisville. After questioning, the investi gators said, the three admitted accepting $500 bribes . each to shave the point spread in a 1949 Invitational Tournament game March 14, 1949 in Madison Square Garden, New York. Groza and Beard, now stock holders and mainstay players on the professional Indianapolis Olympians of the National Bas ketball Association, were sus pended from professional basket ball after their arrest. Kentucky coach Adolph Rupp declared: "The whole world has known for years how I feel about gambling on athletic contests and my stand has not changed." Monday, addressing the Chi cago quarterback club, Rupp said the public should show more leniniency with players involved in the bribe scandal. He said the players involved merely shaved points, and didn't throw games, and criticized New York news papers for printing odds on bas ketball games. In a talk at Lincoln, Neb., last Aug. 15, Rupp said the "gamblers couldn't get at our boys with a 10 foot pole." He said the players were under "constant and ab solute complete" , supervision while on the road. Michigan State Comes From Behind To Top Penn Staters 32-21 STATE COLLEGE, PA., Oct. 20 M') Mighty Michigan State, In trouble for the third successive week, showed its class by coming from behind to give Penn State a 32-21 licking Saturday. The green-clad Michigan State Spartans pulled their long gaining plays out of the bag in the third quarter after Penn State had taken a 14-13 lead. Jim Ellis, a sophomore speed merchant, galloped 57 yards re turned a Penn State punt for a touchdown; Quarterback Al Dor ow added another by pulling in a 41 yard pass from Don McAuliff, and Lcroy llolden, the little fresh man sprinter, clashed 66 yards for the final score.

Stanford Rally Nets 21-14 Win Over Fired-Up Broncos STANFORD, Calif., Oct. 20 (U.R) The Stanford Indians, driven to desperation by a fired-up Santa Clara offensive that refused to say die, defeated the Broncos 21 14 Saturday by pulling the game out of the fire in the last two minutes of play. The Indians, undefeated and untied in four starts, were match ed touchdown for touchdown for the first 58 minutes by a so-so Bronco team which already had been beaten three times in lour outings. WINNING SCORE The game -winning Standard touchdown came as the clock tick ed off the final two minutes. Gary Kerkorian passed to Bill McColl to the Bronc 20 and big Bob Ma thias, the Olympic decathalon champion, knifed off tackle into the end zone. Stanford opened the scoring Junior Keglers Open Activities Eighty - five junior bowlers turned out Saturday morning at Eugene Recreation to inaugurate Eugene's junior bowling program. On hand for the ceremony was Lonnie Crawford, secretary of the Eugene ' Moose Lodge, sponsoring organization of the program which will teach juniors in the age range of 12 to 18 years how to bowl and introduce them to regular league play as members of junior bowling teams. The first morning'i activities included indoctrination and in struction by Ray Hoffman of Eu gene Recreation. A similar In struction period will take place next Saturday morning and the third Saturday period will be given over to the formation of teams, and leagues. League activities will be carried on for the remain der of the bowling season which ends sometime during next April. The cost of bowling is being fi nanced entirely by the Moose Lodge. Shoe rentals, record-keep-: ing, pin boys and the necessary equipment are being furnished by Eugene Recreation so that partici pation in the program is entirely free to the juniors. i Saturday's inaugural group was as mixed as it is possible to have a group mixed. There were boys and girls from half a dozen dif ferent schools in the area. Wil lamette High School's delegation numbered an even 30 juniors. Parents and teachers came along to witness the first day's activi ties. The smallest boy present measured a scant four foot and there were a few youths present who, with their six-foot builds, looked like fugitives from foot ball practice fields. Juniors, in future sessions, will meet each Saturday morning at 11 o'clock at Eugene Recreation. Parents and teachers ore urged to attend the sessions. after the first six minutes, put ting together six first down to march 73 yards to a touchdown. Passes from Quarterback Ker korian to Harry Hugasian and Bill Storum paced the attack and Mathias bulled over from the four for the touchdown. Kerkorian made good the first of three suc cessful conversions. The Broncos cut lose late in the second period in a drive from their own 46. Line smashes by Hank Burget and Del Rasmussen and a pass from Johnny Pasco to Dick Wiborn set it up on the Stan ford 12. Three plays later Burget powered over for the score. John Daly converted arid tied the score at 7-all as the half ended. A REPETITION The second half was almost a repetition of the first. Stanford opened up from its own 44 with Halfback Wes Laubscher skirting end to the Santa Clara 34. Eight line smashes moved the ball to the Santa Clara 12; Hugasian bowled to the three, and Kerkorlan's un derstudy, Bob Garrett, passed to McColl for the touchdown, . Rolling from their own 20 on power smashes by Burget, Jack Kaplan and Rasmussen, the Broncs pushed deep into Sanford territory. A pass from Pasco to Larry Williams put it on the 14 and Mel Lewis smashed over guard to again tie the score.

Three plays after the opening klckoff, the Warriors drew first blood when halfback Walt Spriggs plunged center for seven yards. A 31-yard run by Bill Dumont plus another 17-yard jaunt by Ron Whitecliff set up the score. The next time Oakridge got the ball, the Warriors moved 67 yards in five plays for a score. Quarter back Fred Richter's 54-yard dash around right end highlighted the march with Whitecliff hitting right guard for the final 10 yards. Spriggs plunged for the conver sion. Spriggs added the last touch down after a bad St. Francis punt carried only to the Saint 18. Two plays moved to the 15 and Spriggs moved around right end for the score. Richter added the conversion. St. Francis made its lone scoring threat in the final quarter when the Saints moved to the Oakridge eight-yard line. At the close of the game, the ' Warriors had stormed back to the . St. Francis two. Razorbacks Upset Longhorns, 16-14 FAYETTEVILLE, Ark., Oct. 20 (P) A hopped-up band of Arkansas Razorbacks, acting on orders of their governor, defeated Texas, the nation's No. 4 football team 16-14 for the first time in 13 years Saturday. Early in the week, Governor Sid McMath issued a proclama tion in which he ordered the Razorbacks to end the long drouth in the Southwest Conference series with the Longhorns of Texas. ' The big, rugged lines fought each other to a standstill for most of a great defensive scrap, but the Arkansas forwards were the ones who were able to open the holes when opportunity knocked. Arkansas used a Texas fumble for its first touchdown, a 67-yard sustained march for a field goal and a three-play drive of 60 yards for a third quarter touchdown gave it a margin it was able to hold. Todd to Coach Pro Redskins WASHINGTON, Oct. 20 (P) Dick Todd, onetime Texas A. and M. backfield great is coach of the Washington Redskins foot ball team. He took over stepping up from backfield coach on what looked like a caretaker basis, pending the time when Heartly "Hunk" Anderson, one of Notre Dame's legendaires and successor to Knute Rockne as Notre Dame coach, works out contract difficulties. Although he is working as a steel salesman in Detroit, Ander son is under contract to the Chi cago Bears as a line coach. The contract does not run out until Dec. 31. Owner-Coach George Halas refused to let Anderson off the leash unless the Redskins would trade tackle Paul Lipscomb. Fourth Quarter Passing Spree Downs Huskies Late Rally Tops Washington 27-20 SEATTLE, Oct. 20 ) Sopho more Tommy O'Connell, cool as a fall frost when the going was toughest, pitched Illinois to a fourth - quarter, tie - cracking touchdown and a 27-20 football victory Saturday over the ever challenging Huskies of the Uni versity of Washington. The invading Illini, ranked einhth in the nation, had freed two flying phantoms Johnny Karras and Pete Bachouros in the first half to run us a 20-7 margin before a stunned crowd of 54,000. With seven minutes left, O'Con nell launched an 81-yard drive to the victory. Plunges took the Illini to midfield. and when Wash ington threatened to halt the pa rade there, O'Connell went up stairs and pitched five strikes to reach the goal, throwing every one out of deep punt formation. There were only two minutes left too little for the Huskies to generate a retaliatory drive. QUICK SCORE Illinois loked like money in the bank right from the opening kick- oir, powering 65 yards m 12 plays to post a 7-0 advantage. The speedball team from the Big Ten never trailed, although Washing ton twice rallied to tie the score. The home club matched the Illi nois touchdown quickly, thrusting yards in lour plays. The big one was a 61-yard canter by Sophomore Quarterback Dean Rockey, who faked a handoff and angled over left tackle into the clear. He was caught on the 5 by Herb Neathery, but plunged over from the 1 three plays later. Karras, whose trick running had puzzled the Huskies in Illinois' first touchdown drive, was joined by Bachouros in the mini's quick surge to a second touchdown. Be tween them they accounted for all but 15 yards in a 69-yard, five play scoring campaign. O'Connell got the 15 on a blast through the line after faking a pass. Don Stevens had uluneed the last yard for the first Illini touch down Bachouros cut 16 yards through right tackle for the second one. Sammy Rebecca booted his sec ond perfect placement to make it ii-i for the invaders. THIRD TOUCHDOWN Before the half ran out. Karros put Illinois on the road to its third tally when he siloed through tackle for 20 and fumbled into the hands of Guard Donald Gnidovic, who tacked on 19 more. The play left Illinois just a yard short of the goal, and Bill Tate slammed over. Rebecca missed the kick. leaving the halftime count at 20-7. Washington came to life sud denly in the middle of the third period when Quarterback Sam Mitchell sailed a pass to Hurrvin' Hugh McElhenny, who danced to the goal on a play good for 77 yards. McElhenny added a place ment point and the Huskies, re alizing they were hack in the game again, dominated the play well into the fourth quarter. Stalled by an Illinois tlefensive stand on the one-yard line, Wash ington got a second chance when Tackle Jim O'Brien intercepted one of O'Connell's partially blocked passes on the Illinois 15. Running plays gained the Huskies nary an inch, but on fourth down Mitchell hit Bill Earley In the end zone for the tying touchdown.

C, Oct. 20 (U.R) Time and football games wait for no one, not even a princess. The American-style college foot ball game which the royal couple was scheduled to see here ended 15 minutes before Princess Eliza beth and Prince Philip appeared, despite the valiant efforts of of ficials.

Brother Trims UO Hoop Squad Coach Bill Borcher expects to have his varsity basketball squad at the University ot Ore Bon trimmed to 24 men within the coming week. Borcher, suc cessful Marshfield High coach who recently replaced John Warren for the Webfoots, will work with the first 12 men and Don Kirsch, assistant basketball coach and head baseball coach, will work with the other 12 for a junior varsity team that will play a 20 game schedule. Borcher said, however, that any of the 12 JVs are eligible to ad vance to the varsity, and visa versa. Presently, after a week of prac tice, the over-all squad numbers 30. Two candidates have been par ticularly impressive CHet Noe, junior center, and Keith Far nam, junior forward. "They show hustle and ability, but we haven't worked a great deal on anything but fundamentals to date," Bor cher said. Asked about Bob Peterson, fine letterman forward on last year's varsity squad, Borcher said that he had cut Peterson from the squad because he "did not live up to the standards set for Ore gon basketball players." If there is any change in Peterson's status it will have to come from him, "he knows our standards." Others who have survived the first two cuts include Hank Bon- nemann, Bud Covey, Ken Hunt and Mel Strceter, varsity; Jim Livesay, Bob Hawes, Doug Rogers and Ken Wcgner, sophomores; Ron Bottler, Larry Chamberlain and Dick Kolfard, freshmen, and Ed Halberg, transfer.
