Minnesota not only has power but guile. It used the latter here Saturday to score a touchdown, which, with a safety gave it an 8 to 7 triumph over Northwestern university in a game that had a record crowd for this stadium 64,464 many of whom were Gopher homecom-crs, enthralled from whistle to whistle. The victors were credited with two points late in the initial quarter when a bad pass from the Purple snapperback rolled into the end zone.

They called on trickery to dupe their opponents and manufacture what proved to be the winning touchdown. Backed weU into its own terrain as it was most of the contest. Northwestern was forced to kick.

De Correvont, the punter, was rushed and in his haste to get the ball away did not boot it squarely, the pigskin skidding off his shoe and going out of bounds on his 41-yard line. Bob Swelger plunged into the line without a gain. He and his teammates lined up quickly, with only one man on the weak side of Center Gene Hock, who tossed the ball back to Bob Higgins, the tiny Gopher back, who ran around his own right end for the touchdown. The entire Northwestern team was caught off guard. Some of the Wildcat linemen were offside but of course that made no difference nor did the fact that Gopher Quarterback Bill Gar-naas missed the upright in his attempted conversion.

Lacks Luck. Northwestern not only was outplayed but was outlucked, although much of its misfortune as due to its own blunders and mistakes. The most important and costly error, aside from the safety play, came when It lost a touchdown because an ineligible player the left tackle was down the field illegally under a forward pass.

There was no receiver for this Northwestern pass from center in the first quarter and the ball rolled untouched into the end zone. Northwestern's Bill deCorrevont chased it, scooped it up and then was forced behind the end zone by the charging Gophers. Too late, deCorrevont tried to pass the ball out of danger the safety already had been scored an it was enough to win the game.
