The Bearcats took advantage of a Tulsa fumble in the first minute of the game to score its initial marker and then resorted to the passing of Rossi to build up a 27-16 half-time lead.

Vandy Is Auburn Rally Wins 24-14 Auburn, Sept. 29 (JP) Auburn took full advantage of Vanderbilt fumbles and its own ground strength today to win a surprising 24-14 victory in a Southeastern Conference football game. The victors, tied 14-14 with only six minutes left, grabbed a Vandy fumble and drove 34 yards to score a touchdown. With a minute left, Auburn kicking specialist Joe Davis, a sophomore, booted a field goal from 36 yards out to end the scoring, and upset Coach Bill Edward's team. It was Auburn's first game under Coach Ralph Jordan, who took over after a disastrous 1950 season in which the team failed to win a game.

About 17,000 spectators saw the game. Two sophomores and a senior gave Auburn a powerful running attack which Vandy was never able to halt. Fullback Homer Williams, the senior, and Charles Littles and Charles Hata-way, both sophomores, each scored one touchdown.

Rotroff Recovers But after those game-winning thrusts, the Volunteers highly-touted single wing offensive sputtered and fizzled against the Maroons stubborn defensive wall. The first break came on the second play of the game when Tom Rushing, a hard-running State halfback, fumbled and wingman Roger Rotroff recovered for Tennessee on State's 35. Tailback Hank Louricella, who did some sensational kicking for Tennessee, swept down the left sidelines to State's two. A penalty put the ball back on the 17, but Lauricella flipped a quick pass to end Vince Kaseta for a touchdown. Bert Reichchar kicked the first of two conversions.

Ted Daffer, Tennessee's Ail-American guard who made a specialty of blocking kicks last season, got the first tried by freshman halfback Ben Moseley to set up the second score. Linebacker Gene Moeller recovered the ball on State's 18. Fullback Andy Kozar bulled 16 yards to State's 2 and then rammed over for the score. Futile Thrusts That was the ball game except for 55 more minutes of vicious line play and futile thrusts by both teams. Mississippi State, operating from the straight-T.

stuck chiefly to the ground, but its backs found the Tennessee forewall too tough to pierce beyond midfield. The deepest State was able to penetrate was to the 42-yard line. This drive, which came at the start of the third stanza, was halted abruptly when Dean Cor-bell fumbled a pass from little Frank Branch. Moeller, who played an alert game as linebacker, pounced on the ball for Tennessee. Tennessee made scoring gestures in both the third and fourth stanzas, but lacked the punch to score.

Midway the third Lauricella got off a sensational 71 -yard quick-kick. It rolled dead on State's one. Moseley kicked out and Billy Blackstock returned 28 yards to State's 12. After Kozar picked up MISSISSIPPI STATE LE Clark. Fulton.

Came From Behind The underdog Tar Heels, whose every-trying offense was led by tailback Billy Williams, came from behind early in the final period to grab a 9-7 lead. Halfback Larry Parker returned a punt 29 yards to Georgia's 12. Two plays carried to the five, from where tailback Frank "Wiss-man passed to end Jeff Newton for the score. Tackle Abie Williams converted. Georgia took the kickoff and on the first play Bratkowski fired a pass to halfback Zippy Morocco 50 yards to North Carolina's 26.

In two plays the Bulldogs moved to the 12. Bratkowski then passed to Decarlo for the touchdown. The clever ball-handling Georgians then turned the once-close game into a complete route, with Bratkowski passing to Morocco for six points, and fullback Fred Bilyeu intercepting William's pass on Georgia's 20 and running 80 yards for the final Bulldog touchdown.

Upset Tulane Whips Miami 21-7 New Orleans, Sept. 29 (JP) Tulane's offense caught fire in the second half today and gavethe Greenies a 21-7 victory over highly regarded Miami of Florida. Tulane came back from a listless first half and rolled relentlessly over Miami with fullback Ronnie Xent, the only letterman in the Tulane backfield, bulling across for two scores.

Tulane spotted Miami a first quarter score by fumbling the opening kickoff on its 20. It was Tulane's hard hitting line that kept, the first half from becoming a Miami runaway. Loses No Time in Second Tulane took a punt on the Miami 47 and marched without a break to a third quarter touchdown. Kent's running and the passing of quarterback Pete Clement sparked the drive, with Clement passing 15 yards to Ray Weidenbacher on the 14 to set it up. Clement dived across from the two.

The running of Kent and soph i Max McGee and a 12-yard pass from Clement to halfback Wayne Kingery set up the second touch- down. Kent powered his way over from the two. I Clements' passing sparked the second fourth-quarter touchdown which Kent got on a two-yard buck. Left Guard Tommy Co- meaux got his third straight con- version after the touchdown.

ROUGH. TOUGH Kt.MHMAN TICKETS KIDS ON State College, Sept. 29 (JF) A crushing Penn State ground attack withstood the combined passing and running of Boston University today to record a thrill-packed 40-34 triumph before 15,000. State's Nittany Lions came from behind three times, finally clinching the decision with seven and a half mites maming a game which shat- tered aU previous Penn State scoring records for two teams. The battering of Ted Shattuck, Pete Shopa and Paul Anders gave the Lions the ultimate edge after Harry Agganis' brilliant passing and the running of John Kastan kept Boston ahead most of the time.

KHARAFLEECE PULLOVER INC 2224 Bardstown Road Road-St. Matthews Georgia Tech Smothers Florida 27-0 Gainesville, Sept. 29 (AP) A freshman lineback er, Larry Morris, opened the way for Georgia Tech's offensive power to roll over Florida 27-0 here tonight.

Morris recovered a Florida fumble on the first play and Tech went 13 yards for its first touchdown. At the start of the second half Morris intercepted a Florida pass and Tech went 42 yards for a score. Darrell Crawford's accurate spot passing guided the Tech marches, and a big, fast, and tough line kept Florida's offense bottled. Georgia Tech plays Kentucky- Saturday at Lexington. Along with major upsets elsewhere around the Southeastern the impressive Tech victory made it look good for those who have been slyly suggesting the Yellow Jackets are a hot choice to win the title.

Tech never had a spectacular play until the fourth quarter, when Art Ross set up the fourth Jacket touchdown with a 46-yard run. But it had the punch to cash in on its opportunities. Crawford tossed 12 yards to end Buck Martin for the first touchdown. John Hicks ran 2 yards for the second. Then in the fourth quarter Tech blocked a punt and George Maloof scampered 6 yards to score.

Ross Sets Up Score Ross set. up the last score with his 46-yard dash and two plays later crossed the goal from the 3. Glenn Turner, one of the small group of sophomores who have added so much punch to Tech this season, converted three extra extra points. Tech's Crawford proved easily the master of Florida's highly regarcted quarterback, Haywood Sullivan. Crawford was more effective with his passes and he out-generalled Sullivan all the way.

At least some of the credit for Crawford's great improvement might be laid at the door of Tech backfield coach Frank Broyles, who last year tutored Sullivan in the same job at Florida.

So it was 42-0 at the half, sophomore Mevil Mavraides having kicked every one of the extra points following the six touchdowns. With Notre Dame dipping deep--er into its young manpower, the second half was evenly played, 6-6, but roughly waged. Two 15-yard unnecessary roughness penalties in a row moved Indiana into Notre Dame territory for the first time since early in the first quarter. They now had the ball on the Irish 27. Dozier made two, D'Achille passed to Gene Gedman for 12 and then Robertson went around right end for the remaining 13 and a touchdown.

D'Achille's extra point kick was nullified by a roughness penalty and his second attempt was blocked, Notre Dame's final touchdown came in the fourth quarter with Del Gander wedging it over from the one. cnAmcL auiu rAiniinu Complete Body Dent Work 6 Ways Better Bait ad on for Durability Harder Finish Steps Pealing lasts longer Stops Fading Glossier Finish Open Sundays 9-4 Weekdays 7-7 Saturdays 7-5 CALL JEFFERSONVILLE 3-3906 AUTO PAINTING CORP.

A crowd of 40,000 saw the giant Georgians score three times in less than eight blazing minutes of the last period to turn the game into a rout. Three of the Geprgia touchdowns came on passes tossed by Bratkowski, 187-pound sophomore of Danville, 111.

It was Georgia's first football victory over the Tar Heels since its '20-10 win in the 1947 Sugar Bowl game. After a scoreless first period, spent mostly in Georgia's terri tory, North Carolina shot ahead by two points late in the sec-ond period. Georgia quarterback Mai Cook, a 1 1 pting to pass from his 20, was chased and trapped in the end zone by North Carolina ends Lou Dar nell and George Wally Butts Georgia Coach Georgia came back in the second half with a souped-up offense, featuring Bratkowski's Tigers Stun 'Bama, 13-7, In Big Upset By HENDR1X CHANDLER Mobile, Sept. 29 (JP Alabama's vaunted offense fizzled today and the Louisiana State University Tigers rode to a 13-7 upset over the stunned Crimson Tide before a crowd of more than 32,000. Bobby Marlow, who was expected to pace the Tide ground game, broke loose for only one good gain, and didn't even play "the last 14 minutes of the game.

The first Tiger score came on brilliant 20-yard pass from Jim 'Barton to end Warren Virgets. Punt Breaks Tide's Heart It was Barton, L. S. triple- threat quarterback, who broke Alabama's back, however. The Tide threatened to punch over a touchdown at the start of "the fourth period, and drove to L.

S. U. nine-yard line before losing the ball on downs, he Tigers ran the ball-to the 19, and 'Barton uncorked a 69-yard spiral- ing punt that stopped dead on the Alabama one-yarr1 line. That punt broke Alabama heart, and the Tide never could generate another drive. 'Bama Line Outcharged Roshto, a hard-driving -left halfback, gained 111 vards in 11 tries.

This was almost twice the 58 yards netted by Marlow. Fifty-one of Roshto's yards 'came on successive runs in the 'third quarter and led to the de- cidmg touchdown. After Roshto had run the ball to the 18-yard line, Labat swept over for the score. Almost as big a disappointment as Marlow was the ineffective play of the veteran Alabama line. L.
