(TP Iowa's underdog Hawkcyes battled un-j beaten Notre Dame, the nation's No. 1 football team, to a stand still Saturday and ended up in a 14-14 tie as the Irish completed a nine-yard pass for the tying score with only six seconds re maining. The Hawkeyes, rated the fourth best defensive team against rushing in the nation go ing into combat, never trailed the Irish during the 60 minutes and but for two stellar comebacks by Notre Dame, it would have been an Iowa win before 56,478 fans. The luck or the Irish came up for one last play in the first half when Tackle Art Hunter stopped the clock with an injury. On that one effort Ralph Guglielmi passed to Dan Shannon for 11 yards and Don Schacffcr place kicked the extra point to give Notre Dame a 7-7 deadlock at the intermission. HAWKEYES LEAD The luck held up, ton, for the finish. Iowa, battling throughout, had gone downfield 52 yards in 13 plays in the closing five min utes, and their parade ended when sub Halfback Robert Stearncs tossed a left-handed pass to End Frank Gilliam in the end zone for a 14-to-7 margin. There were only two minutes and six seconds remaining then and when Neil Wordcn returned the Iowa kickoff 21 yards, Notre Dame still was 57 yards from the goal. But Joe Heap passed to John Lattner for 12, then Guglielmi hit Heap for nine, and connected to Lattner twice in a row for 11 and 17 yards. VICTORY STRING ENDED Two passes were knocked down as the clock ran on. but on a last ditch effort Shannon skipped two paces clear In the Iowa end zone and Guglielmi snapped a throw to his middle.

Wl Illinois used J. C. Caroline as a devas tating decoy in smashing to a 39- 14 closing Big Ten victory over Northwestern which earned a title share and Rose Bowl con sideration with Michigan State Saturday. A 21-pomt third quarter made the game an Illini waltz in which Caroline, the nation's leading rusher, did not score until his four-yard smash for a 32-7 lead late in the third period. However, when Caroline, sen sational Negro sophomore left the game with 8:24 remaining, he had rolled up 98 yards on 14 carries and left the Wildcat de- tenses in bewilderment. MUST' TRIUMPH This was a "must" triumph for Illinois because Michigan State had finished last week, with a 5-1 league record, matched Sat urday by the Illini.

Oregon's football fanatics thought the prognosticating trio was somewhat balmy by picking OSC to win. The Beaver did just that, but decisively. For an OSC team that had gone scoreless in losing live straight PCC games at the start cf the season, the Beavers defensed the Webfoots into submission and were higher spiritually than the clouds that failed to spew rain until half-time.

LOS ANGELES (IT) UCLA, denied a Rose Bowl "bid last year by two points, almost certainly won its way into the 1954 New Year's Day game Saturday by defeating hard fighting Southern California 13-0 while Stanford was be ing held to a 21-21 tie by California. The ball bounced the right way for UCLA both at home and in Palo Alto as the Bruins capitalized on breaks to set up both their scoring opportunities here before 85, 366 fans. The defeat avenged Southern California's 14-12 victory last year, which sent the Trojans into the Rose Bowl instead of UCLA. UCLA, however, needed those breaks as they were unable to reach scoring terri tory on their direct drives although getting down inside the Southern California 20 time after time only to have the Trojan defenses stiffen and turn them back.

The stoutness of the defenses was shown by statistics that gave Southern Cal 49 yards net rush ing and UCLA only 14 in the first half.
