SHORTRIDGE OPENED the scoring when Withrow lost the leather on a fumble and Quarterback Fred Davis passed 32 yards to Bill Ralph. But the invaders tied it up near the end of the first period when Harry Andreadis intercepted a Davis pass on the Shortridge 25 and carried it to the two. Fullback Frank Sutton tallied on a line buck.

5 Feb. 16 Feb. 19 Shortridge's unbeaten string, which had reached 13 games, was snapped by Withrow of Cincinnati on the Shortridge gridiron yesterday afternoon, 27 to 12. In a game postponed from Friday because of the death of Shortridge Athletic Director Russell Julius, the Cincinnati city champs scored in every quarter Jackson Leads Attucks To 31-13 Victory With Right- Halfback Eulas Jackson scoring three times, Cris-pus Attucks evened its high school football record at two victories and two defeats with an impressive 31-13 win over Day-ton (O.) Dunbar at Attucks yesterday. Attucks scored two touchdowns in the first quarter, both teams tallied in the second to make it 18-7 at the half and then the Tigers outscored the visitors 2 touchdowns to 1 in the fourth period.

Jackson opened the scoring for the Tigers on a 35-yard double reverse play with Don Oldham and Thurman Washington. Dunbar failed to gain and then Oldham promptly raced 38 yards to make it 12-0. IN THE SECOND quarter, Willie Rackstraw gave Dunbar its first tally on a quarterback sneak from the three-yard line and Bill Wright kicked the extra point. But Attucks came right back with a 30-yard touchdown pass from Oldham to Jackson as the half ended. Attucks End Ed King recovered a Dayton fumble early in the fourth quarter and five plays later Fullback Jones Taylor bulled his way over from the six.

Oldham passed to Ed Richardson for the extra point. The final Attucks marker came on a 21-yard run by Jackson and, with two minutes left, Dunbar connected on a pass from Rack-straw to Tanner. CRISPVS ATTLCKS (31) ENDS King, ardson. Cunningham, Holder, Rich- TACKLES Hester, Warfield. Manual.

The victors made their scores the easy way all on one quick thrust when they did not appear to be threatening. Valpo Defeats Pumas For 1st Time Since '38 Valparaiso, Oct. 9 (JP) Valparaiso conquered St.

John Hanak passed to Walt Severs in the second period for a 13-yard gain which carried across the goal line for Valparaiso's first rally. Later in the quarter Severs punched over from the five-yard line after a sustained march from the Crusaders' 39. Fred Rader place-kicked the extra points on the first two goals. In the third period Dune Garrison recovered a Puma fumble on Valparaiso's 14 and two plays later Oatis Mehlberg ran 68 yards for a touchdown.

That ended the Crusaders scoring and St. Joe got its first marker in the same period.

9 (UP) Mighty Northwestern spotted Minnesota two touchdowns and a safety today, then came from behind for a 19-to-16 victory in a bruising battle before 47,000 fans. Minnesota's massive forwards proved to be everything their press clippings said they were. Although it was the backfield that made the tallies for the Gophers, it was the line that was responsible. But the same held true of Northwestern. The Wildcat line never expected to meet a charging bunch of forwards as vicious as the Gophers, and for the first period they were a puzzled, battered bunch of kids.

They they re- bounded. i After that it was Northwestern. The line rounded into shape and i neid out the opposition to give i Quarterback Don Burson a chance to complete seven out of 13 passes for 103 yards and two touchdowns. For the last half nobody went anywhere and the forwards just battled it out all the way. The breaks had a lot to do With the scoring but both -clubs made their own breaks with bone-crushing tackling and blocking.

THERE WERE stars on both sides, and they came from the line all the way. For Minnesota it was tackle Leon Nomellini, a 250-pound plunger who covered neatly as much of the field as the turf. For Northwestern it was three tremendous line backers. Alex Sarkisian, Ray Wietecha and George Sundheim with "Sarky," captain of the Wildcats, the standout. The Wildcat backers made the men ahead of them look good all day, plugging every hole, and in the second half, it was give and take' within 10 yanls of the Scrimmage line on eviry play.

The Gophers piled up all their points in the first seven minutes. Helped by a Harry Elliott punt which was dead on the Wildcat 18-inch line, the line charged in to smear Burson after a fumble behind the goal line. That was two points. ELLIOTT THEN punted out on the Northwestern 10, a penalty set the Wildcats back to their one and then Frank Asch-cnbrenner had a bad pass from center on fourth down while attempting to punt. He could only run to the eight.

From there it was one play, Ev Faunce to Harry Warner for the touchdown. Aschenbrenner's fumble, recovered by Jim Maloskey on the Northwestern 26, set up another Faunce pass to Harry Grant for the final Gopher touchdown. Then it was all Northwestern. It marched 73 yards in 13 plays witn Burson passes accounting for 39 yards before Aschenbren-ner went over from the one. All that scoring was packed into the first 15 minutes.

EV THE second Faunce missed a bad pass from center and Wietecha recovered on the Gopher 26. So Burson pitched to Chuck Hagmann for a touchdown. Then Wietecha, always alert, intercepted Faunce's pass and re- turned the Gopher 44. Burson passed to Aschenbrenner for 30 and to Tom Worthington for nine for the final score of the game. It was Northwestern's second Big Nine triumph, and it marked them as the learn to beat for the title.

9 (JP) Duke found the scoring punch it has been looking for all season and rolled over Navy, 28-7, today for its first victory. The spark that set the Blue Devils off to victory after ties in their first two games came from the heels of a pair of Mount Airy, N. speedsters. FRED FOLGER, the old reliable of the Duke backield for the past two seasons, pulled the crowd of 25,000 to its feet when the game was less than two minutes old by intercepting a pass and dashing 50 yards to set up Duke's first score. Paul Stephanz rammed the hall over from the five on the first try.

In the third period, Sophomore Billy Cox, who followed Folger from Mount Airy to the Duke campus, faked a punt that completely foiled the Middies and sped 61 yards to a touchdown. After Navy stopped another Duke thrust in the same quarter, End Bill Duncan smashed through to block a punt by Bill Earl in the end zone and fell on it for Duke's third score. The Middies marched back with the ensuing kickoff for their lone touchdown on a drive that started from Navy's 35. Bill Hawkins zoomed over from one yard out for the score. Jim Wills converted.

DUKE RETALIATED by starting a drive of 80 yards from the kickoff for their fourth touchdown after six and a half minutes of the fourth period. Jack Friedlund wound things up by covering the final 20 yards on a reverse. Mike Souchak, Duke's place-kicking specialist, booted all the Blue Devils' extra points. As advertised, Navy's chief threat lay in the arm of Reaves Baysinger slingshot passer. One of his tosses to Bob Mc-Elroy ate up 46 of the yards Navy covered in its scoring march, fk all he completed nine of 18 for 137 yards.

Missouri Cains 20-14 Upset-Over Mustangs Columbia, Oct. 9 (JP) Using, a destructive ground attack, the Missouri Tigers smashed over three touchdowns in the second half for a 20 to 14 foot-bali victory over favored Southern Methodist University's Mustangs today. An all time Missouri home rpcord crowd of 30,892 fans saw the Tigers spot Southern Methodist a 7-point lead in the second period. Then they stormed back to hand the Mustangs their first since their loss to Arkansas in 1946. Doak Walker, SMU's all-America back, played the full 60 minutes, and played brilliantly, but the two touchdowns he made and his two conversions couldn't match Missouri's powerful running attack.

Georgia Wins, 35-12 Athens, OcV 9 (UP) A fired-up Georgia team sparkled through the air and dazzled on the ground today to run up a 35 to 12 Southeastern Conference football victory over erratic Kentucky before 23,000 fans today.

Castilla hit Povejsil on the 15 and Len Corbin, Conference dash champion, then slashed off left tackle for the Cats' six-pointer. Fullback Tom Murphy missed the conversion kick but, as it turned out, that didn't matter. Francis Moriarty bore the brunt as Butler racked up three first downs and moved from its own 33 to the home team's 22 early in the game, but the Bulldogs then lost possession after loosing a futile overhead assault. Moriarty and Kenny Smock shared the running assignments as the Hoosiers staged another march in the second period, but Cleveland, Oct. 9 (Spl.) Western Reserve broke through for a touchdown in the second quarter and protected this slim margin to defeat Butler, 6 to 0 in a Mid-American Conference gridiron battle here today.

The victory was the first in three M.A.C. starts for the Red-cats and spoiled the Bulldogs' debut in loop competition. Coach Mike Scarry's charges started on their own 22-yard line and used 23 plays as they rolled on across the goal line. Fulback Ed Ferris started the push by advancing to the 37 for Reserves' first down of the tilt. Quarterback Adrian Castilla completed an aerial to Nate Corbin for another first down on the Butler 46.

SHORTLY THEREAFTER Cas converted. On the second play of the fourth period Wally Moore ran 62 yards to score and Frawley. again added the point. The Pumas almost scored again just before the gun. St.

A hard charging, hard running Wabash College team thrilled 5,000 spectators this afternoon as it scored its second straight victory of the football season at the expense of Case, 20 to 6, in the feature attraction of Homecoming Day.

Despite a decided weight disadvantage, both in the line and in the backfield, the Little Giants outplayed their opponents except for a few minutes in the second period when the visitors counted a touchdown. Wabash began its victory march midway in the first quarter when Halfback Norm Wilson, on a handoff from Quarterback Frank Roman, raced 24 yards to cross the Case goal. Wilson added the extra point from placement and the period ended with Wabash leading, 7 to 0.
