But the Irish reached deep into their repertoire of plays to push over a last quarter touchdown that Illinois couldn't match with its sensational touchdown artist. Buddy Young, sidelined by in juries. Notre Dame's vaunted power, which had rolled up 176 points in four games, was stopped cold most of the afternoon by an Il linois line which showed no respect for the national fame of the Irish's running star, half back Bob Kelly, or for the Irish's passing ace, Frank (Bol ey) Dancewicz. But a split-second defensive lapse by the Illinois backfleld caused the Illinoi to slide to their second defeat of the sea son, after 'eading 7-6 at the half. After a 15-yard holding pen alty had pushed Notre Dame back to its own 39, Dancewicz faded to the 29 and passed In the plat to Kelly on the 35. The Irish sophomore faked a run, and then latcralled to halfback Maggioli who sprinted down the sidelines for a 65-yard touch down run. Maggioli came back to plunge for the point as Notre Dame took a victory lead with 3 minutes of the last quarter gone.

The astounding victory for the Huskies, following their thor ough shellacking by U.S.C. on Monday, upset the dopesters across the nation and threw the Trojans into undisputed lead for the Pacific coast conference title with the inside track to the Rose Bowl. It was superior line play by the fast-charging Husky line that spelled defeat for the Bears their initial loss of the year In conference play. The hitherto invincible Bear forward wall was the victim of some old-fashioned spinners and end-around plays from Coach Ralph (Pest) Welch's boys that sent them reel ing. Quaterback Dick Ott!e was the mainspring In the Washing ton drive and it was his long gains, coupled with bull-like rushes by Fullback Keith De courcey, that started the Huskies on their victory march.
