The tipoff came on the first play when Joe Whlster, Ohio's fine fullback, fumbled and the Trojans" took over. That was the first of two fumbles, and three pass interceptions on which Ohio surrendered the ball. Halfback Don Doll fooled the Ohio defense completely In the first eight minutes when he faked a crack at tackle, swung wide and tiptoed 42 yards for the first score without being touched.

Lafayette, Oct. 11 (AP) Out-rushed and out-fought for four full Notre Dame's football Irish defeated Purdue' battling Boilermakers today, 22-7, because Quarterback Johnny Lujack threw pass after pass straight into the arms of his receivers. Purdue's seven points were the most scored against Notre Dame in one-game since the 1945 season.

Last year the unbeaten but Army-tied Irish gave up four touchdowns, But Art Haverstock's point-after-touchdown placement today was the first extra point marked up against the Irish in two seasofts. Coach Frank Leahy of 'Notre Dame complained early this week that his team lacked a consistent ground attack and he wasn't kidding. The "Irish had a net gain' of 89 yards by rushing, to Purdue's 128. Time after time, Tackle Phil-O'Reilly and. Ends Norman Maloney and Clyde Grimenstein broke through to stop Notre Dame ball carriers.

Grimenstein was an old enemy of the Irish. He was Army's highest scoring end in 1943 but enrolled at) Purdue last year. Notre Dame's style also was no mystery to Stuart (Stu) K. Holcomb, Purdue's new coach and end coach' for the Army the last three years. IRISH-PURDUE.

Undaunted, Dayton took the next klckoff on Its 32 and with the aid of Edmond Toscanl's passes and runs by John Delp, moved to the UC 19, where a fourth down pass dribbled off a receiver's fingertips. The next time the Flyers had the ball they marched from the 170 44 to a touchdown on several plays, due mostly to Toscanl's southpaw passes. The march was culminated when Toscanl connected to Jim Dahn on the two yard stripe and Ray Janaazek scored on the next play. Dobbins converted to tie the score.

The period ended with Cincinnati driving from Its 22 to the Dayton 46, from where Tom O'Malley punted poorly to the Flyer 35. Score Cincinnati 7, Dayton, 7.

Papach, Atnew. Fordham Massacred; 75-0 Loss Is Worst In Schools History New York, Oct. 11 (INS) Penn State's powerhouse smooth-ered Fordham today In the worst massacre ever suffered by the Rams in their 56-year football history. In the second period the Nittany Lions crossed Fordham's goal line six times. Jeff Durkota led the slaughter with four of his team's 11 touchdowns.

Penn State started scoring rifiht off the reel and piled up a 55-0 count at half-time. In the second half somebody mercifully thought of shortening the periods, which contributed largely to slowing down the State steamroller. State Coach Bob Hlgglns, actually embarrassed by the power of his players, kept pouring in subs, but even the lowliest bench-warmers continued to run the hapless Rams ragged. In the first half the game was so one-sided that Penn State never was compelled to punt, and gained 291 yards rushing, compared to Fordham's meek 24. Cards, Packers Clash; Browns To Face Dons are in last place at the moment.

The 'Skins are paced by Sammy Baugh, the old passing master. Other games in the National League find the Pittsburgh Steelers invading the lair of the Boston Yanks and the Detroit Lions are entertaining Bob Waterfleld and Company of the Los Angeles Rams.
