Sugai
Navy Wins
ir
Game, 21-0
s-- New Orleans (U.R) Joe
Gattuso, a speedy fullback, and
John Weaver, an elusive con
verted halfback, swept around
Mississippi's big line almost at
will Saturday to give Navy a
brilliant 21 to 0 victory in the
21st annual Sugar Bowl game.
Gattuso, Navy's leading scorer
during the4 regular season, ac
counted for two touchdowns,
and Weaver, a third-string quar
terback until midway in the
season when he was switched
to halfback, scored one and
kicked' three extra points.
In between, the two electri
fied the sellout crowd of 82,500
with brilliantly-executed runs,
using the Mississippi ends for
their private speedway.
The game was Navy's first ap
pearance in the Sugar Bowl and
its second post-season game in
history. In 1924 it played Wash
ington to a 14-14 tie in the Rose
Bowl.
So apt was Navy's defense
that Mississippi penetrated the
Navy territory only three times
all afternoon, once against
Navy's third team in the waning
minutes of the game.

non-conference record of two vic
tories in seven games into the
conference race. On the other
hand, Coach Jack Friel's im
proved Cougars enter the series
with a record of six victories in
nine starts.
No change is expected in the
Oregon starting lineup of Jerry
Ross and Jim Loscutoff at for
ward. Max Anderson at center
and Howard Page and Phil Mc
Hugh at guard. The remainder
of the 12-man squad which will
make the trip will probably in

either Johnny Lundell or Rich
Costi at guard.

All of the starters except Mc-
Hugh, who is a sophomore, are
lettermen while Bell is the only
letterman of the other seven
players. McManus is a junior and
the others are all sophomores
making their first conference
trip.
Loscutoff has led the Ducks in
the non-conference scoring with
128 points and he is followed by
Anderson (100), Ross (60), Mc
Hugh (45), Bingham (39),. Page
(35), Bell (31), Moore (12) and
Sherman (8). Anderson is the too
shooter with a .483 average and
four other Webfoots, Bingham
(.414), Loscutoff (.397), Ross
(.348), and McHugh (.302) are
hitting better than .300 from the
floor.
.Oregon may have suffered a
severe blow to its guard pros
pects wnen Dick James, who
missed last season with an in
jured leg, underwent an oper
ation on his wrist to repair a
football injury.
The Ducks will face a Wash
ington State team led by Ron
Bennink and Bill Rehder which
lost only one man from its 1954
club. The Cougars have also been
bolstered by the addition of sev
eral prominsing sophomores.
