To day it will do well to get in the top 20. How does it feel, Mr. Russell, to take such a drop in such a short time? H. N. Russell, coach of South ern Methodist: "We're Just as good now as we were then but we never were No. 1 in the first place." And, moreover, he added "We have a fine bunch of students and fans who understand this situation. That's the biggest re gret I have for getting beat. I hate to lose because of those fine students and fans and the great support of the administra tion at SMU. Russell disclaimed any or ganized howl of the fans and alumni because Southern Metho dist lost to Texas 23-20 and to Texas A. and M. 25-20. "The folks out here aren't like that,' he said. "It is no dis grace to get beat. The disgrace comes from not getting up when you are beaten. My boys played great football even in those games. They kept the crowd on its tip-toes, they put on a good show." Cal Poly Crushes SOCE to End Red Raiders Season Asheland.

Willamette's hospital list was stretched to four as the result of the Whitman encoun ter.

A Whitman fumble set up the second Bearcat scoring play. Whitman scored following a Willamette fumble and at the half the count stood 14 to 7. A blocked kick and a fumble led directly to two more Mis sionary touchdowns in the third period while Kent Myers kicked a placement to put the Whits out in front.

An advisory committee yester day proposed that an educational fund be set up to further the aims of the organization and build a following for its tourna ments. The committee also recom mended that PGA members take more active role in the or ganization's affairs and keep closely in touch with all local problems. The advisors met in a joint session with the executive com mittee. They proposed that golf pros ask five club members in terested in ihe game to give $10 each to the educational fund. A central office director would administer the funds. The money would be turned over to the Na tional Caddie tournament. It was expected that dele gates from 30 sections would ap prove the plan today.

Rollie Kirkby, who came down to the University of Washington campus from Burlington, Wash., four years ago, made his good bye appearance before 33,500 football fans Saturday and his cleat marks will stick for a long time in the stadium sod. These are a few of the things he did to pace the Huskies to a 27-12 triumph over Oregon's young, improving Webfoots: He scored two touchdowns in the third quarter to crack a close game wide open. Playing both 'offense and de fense in his 33rd game for Wash ington, he intercepted two pass es, both of them starting touch down drives. He caught two passes and the 25 yards they gained gave him a new one-season school record of 343 yards via the air. On the ground he averaged six yards on his 13 carries.
