"What have they done on the gridiron yardstick? American football statistical buieau compilations leleased today show: Arizona, certain to be the Border conference repiesentative the Sun bowl at El Paso, ranks lust in the nation in total oE- lense and in forward passing of- leiise. The Arizonaus, dynamite in theii own conference, but de- leated twice in intersectioual battles, rolled up 373.5 yards aveiage pel game via msheb and passes, and 1S4 3 yaids pei tame by stiictly aerial activity. Missouri, undefeated since its opening loss to Ohio State, is well in tiotit as the leading lush- ing offensive team, with a 290.3 yard average per game. DuQuesne, undefeated eight games, looms as the nation's de- iensive leader, allowing the foe but 111.9 yards per game via i ushes and passes The Duke Blue Devils are the countiy's second most potent total offensive unit, with a 353.4 a i aveiage pei game.

The Texas Aggies, winneis in 28 of theii last 29 staits, and for two years the nation's top total defensive team, rank in that lepect this season, holding the enemy to 123 yaids per gamo. fhe Aggies are second in defense against rushing, with. 54.1 ave- lage.

TH You'll Skim Right Along With OIL Capital Auto Courts Service Station 1130 Eleventh Phone 1900 ESO NARAXCHE Montana State University, Missoula, Nov. (Special) -When Montana Giizzlies battle Oregon State Saturday, it will wind up the college football caieer of the most illustrious Grizzly--Eso Naranche. As line-blasting fullback and general backbone of the Montana team, Eso Naranche has earned the praise of coaches, rival players and fans with his brilliant work. With the end of the season at hand, Montana University offers a versatile 200-pound fullback as its nomination for what honors may come.

A glance at Naranche's record of his senior grid season reveals why he is deserving of grid glory. Checked for two seasons by knee injuries, Eso Naianche was a forgotten man when this fall's practice started, but the undiscouraged Grizzly decided to give the game one more try. The husky Grizzly from Butte hit his stride early this year in a great comeback and has since led Montana in all departments. First, Montana was without its regular season captain who joined the air corps, but team mates appointed Naianche honorary game captain twice, other seniors getting this honor when Eso didn't. A i runner and unusually fast for his weight, Naianche has scored 50 points and has been on the top of the Pacific Coast confeience scoring parade for three weeks and seems certain to win the race.

Naranche has scored six touchdowns, kicked 11 conveisions and last week booted a 35-yaid field goal on a muddy field against Idaho. Statistics show that the Montanan ranks sixth in total offense in the conference. In 97 plays Naiauche has made 513 yards. He has passed 34 times in seven games, completed 13 for 270 yards for an average of 20 yards a flip. Kicking field goals, passing and plunging isn't enough so the big Grizzly calls signals, kicks off and backs up the line.

Doug Fessenden, coach at Montana Uni- for seven years, calls Na- ranche the best fullback he has had. Montana followers think he is the most outstanding Grizzly back since Mad Milton Popovich galloped to national honors back in 1937. Montana has won six games this fall, with Eso Naranche instrumental in making the winning scores. Utah Sure of At Least Title Split Salt Lake City, Nov. State's scoring machine, dormant all season, thawed out today despite a freezing temperature, but Utah university's touchdown power clicked also and the Utes won the traditional Thanksgiving day football battle, 33 to 21.

The victory was Utah's fourth conference triumph and assured the Indians at least a tie for their second consecutive Big Seven title. Izzy Spector, Utah's all-conference halfback, galloped from his 28 to Utah State's five with the game only two minutes old, then scored on an off-tackle diive. State forged into the lead in the second period when Burns Crookston crashed over fiom the Utah two, following a lengthy drive, and Glen. Sorenson kicked the extra point. The Utes then scored two touchdowns on four plays and were never headed.

Huck Adelt passed to his brother, Gay, who took the ball on the Utah 35 and galloped over. Two plays later, Merle Bro'nn recovered an Aggie fumble on the State 23 and Huck Adelt passed to Le Grande Gregory in the end zone. Peterson's placement was good. Utah tallied another touchdown in the third, Gay Adelt going over from the Aggie eight, ending a drive from the Farmer 25. Spector's placement was good.

Taking the ball on their own 10, the Utes marched down the field, with Gay Adelt and Spector running sensationally. Peterson crashed i from the five and Spectoi's kick added the extra point. Utah State stole the show in the last period. Marvin Bell hurled passes right and left, most them connecting with re- ceiveis. The Fanners drove from midfield to the Utah 10, and Bell passed to Dick Howard for the score.

Sorenson's placement was good. Backed against their own goal by a fine punt by Tommy Evans, the Aggies caught Utah napping. Bell, standing in punt formation on- his own to John Putnik, who took the ball on his 35 and loped to a touchdown. Dee Whiteside's placement was good. ARIZONA STATE WINS Fiesno, Calif, Nov.

Arizona State (Tempe) won a 26- to-7 football victory over Fresno State college before a Thanksgiving day crowd 9,000 here today. Three of Arizona State's touchdowns came in the last quarter. The fast halt was scoieless. Fies- no State scoied once in the last period. ffTIU.

For years, reports of the socking stunts of Assassin Al have been drifting out of his a Seattle, until citizens of the boulevard have decided he must be Paul Bunyan's twin brother. Largely, these repoits have told about how Al lets go one wallop and--that's all, brother. Now he's finally going to unveil his aitillery in the east, tussling with Ken Oveiliu, and fiom their tea party may come the next challenger for Gus Lesnevich's light heavyweight championship. Bach has decided he can't eat his cake and have a middleweight's figuie, too, and Promoter Mike Jacobs has agieed to listen to the wmnei's claims. This coiner strings along with wai-scaned Ken, largely because the old skatei from Decatur, always has looked particularly good against belteis.

Sinkwkh Is Serious About Post Athens, Ga Nov (ff) -The fancy-stepping tailback who leads the nation's footballers in lugging the pigskin wants to shift to block back--a thankless assignment--but it's no go with his coach. University of Georgia Coach Wallace Butts couldn't see making the shift of Franlue Sink- wich But Fraukie volunteered for the job. Coach Butts icvealed bioken- jaw Siuky's lesolve today, as Georgia prepaied to send its tiiple-thieat candidate for All- America against Dartmouth, next- to-last opponent on the Bulldog slate "We laughed with the team liddled by injuries, Fiankle volunteered to play blocking back," said Butts "We didn't laugh at his unselfish but at the idea of i our best ball-camel at blocking back "You heai and lead he's leading the nation in rushing, that he's leading the Southeastern ccnfeience in yardage by passing and lushing.

He was a one-man pass defense. He fakes well. He's undoubtedly one of the team's best blockeis although seldom called on. He's a leader on the field. "Theie are things some people think tiivial.

But we think they're important. It all adds up to more than just a Saturday hero." Modest Football Menu Served Mostly To Southern and Midwestern Fans By JUDSON UAIMBY New York, Nov. modest football menu for Thanksgiving day did little to disturb the holiday calm today although Western Reserve chased Case from the thinning ranks of the unbeaten 26-6 and Rutgers provided the East with a mild upset by beating Brown 13-7.
