SAIN. The little left-hander, first of three Dodger hurlers who were i belted for 11 safeties, was touched for four unearned runs in the first inning when his usually dependable infield went to pieces, committing four errors. The only Boston hit of the Inning was an infield single by Frank McCormick. urrT mi imp EAST 31, LINCOLN 0 1 (Stories on Page 5.) Miami Cancels Offer to Rocky MIAMI BEACH, FLA. UP) Offers of $225,000 in guarantees for Rocky Graziano, middleweight champion, and Tony Zale to fight a return match here next February have been withdrawn, Harry Voiler, Miami Beach restaurant and hotel operator, said Saturday "For two months I've waited, begged and pleaded Irving Cohen, Graziano's manager," Voiler said.

"Zale accepted my offer of a $75,000 guarantee the second day after it was made. It appears Cohen can't make up his mind. I'm through fooling around." i -Law 4 y- nn UUWLIhU BISON, THEN PASSERS HIT Best Opening Feat Since 1922. By Bert McGrane. (Staff Writer.) IOWA CITY, IA.North' Dakota State was caught amidships with a reverberating running and passing assault here Saturday as customers saw Iowa roll up a 59-0 verdict for its greatest scoring demonstration in an opener since 1922.

i lie a a fairly paralyzed a game Bison line with a hammering attack, then caught thejf reeling Herd with an aerial barrage to make the advance strictly a oneway proposition. Iowa accomplished the feat in a simple, direct fashion, us ESTES. ing few departures from elementary offense. And the Hawks herded in the reserves to such an extent that when it was over the depth of Iowa's manpower was the feature, on this occasion at least. North Dakota State had courage to burn, but it lacked the depth to withstand the four-quarter shock in withering heat.

So the game was all one-sided. Iowa ontdowned the Bison, 28 to 6, made 19 first downs by rushing, and threw up a defense that gave the Herd just one first down by running. But it was in passing that Iowa tipped its hand. It uncovered three pitchers, two of them new in Hawkeye uniforms, and they i connected 16 times in 22 at- i tempts. Lou King tossed the first four i and completed all of them for 53 yards.

Al DiMarco threw 10 andJ sent seven into the arms of re- ceivers for 111 yards and Johnny Estes of Des Moines fired eight, times, completing five for 108 yards. Some Mistakes, Too. The Hawks came up with a few flaws, also. Their pass de-j fense was not exactly perfect and Bison pitchers sped passes i through the defense seven times for an aggregate of 65 yards. North Dakota State gained scant yardage on the ground but most IOWA Continued on Page Four.

Iowa State defeated the Iowa Teachers, 31-14, in the unveiling of the Abe Stuber system of football here but it was no shoo-irf. The lighter Tutors, who must have been 'outweighed 10 pounds to a man, were not the least bit give-inish and every time it ap-' peared that the Cyclones might make a virtual rout of the con- test battled stubbornly and ef- fectfully. Nevertheless, Iowa State was never in arrears, although its opponents came back twice to put themselves into the ball game, making the count 10-7 early in the second half after they had trailed 10-0 at the intermission and again rebounding to a 17-14 score late in third period. Errors Aid Cyclones. After that the losers' own errors helped the Cyclones to two touchdowns in a final quarter that was raggedly played by both elevens, which were undoubtedly affected by the extremely humid weather which forced the estimated 12,000 spectators to short eleeves and shirt waists if that's what the female fans wear in these ultramodern times.

Iowa State's points were registered on touchdowns in the first, third and final quarters, two of them coming in the last 15 minutes, a field goal by Harle Rollingcr in the second period, and his four conversions. The Teachers scored two touchdowns in the third quarter, Elvin Goodvin booting the extra points. Cyclone Followers Pleased. In all probability Cyclone rooters were well pleased with the showing of their team, which had not been touted too highly in preseason assays of Big Six conference teams. Not too much had been expected.

But the new Iowa State coacn put som good-looking backa on display in Webb Halbert, who was injured early and sat out the remainder -of the game on the bench Don Ferguson, Lornie Paulson, George Knack, Vic Weber, Bob Angle, Ray Klootwyk, Bill Chauncey and of course, Ron Norman, who pitched all 20 of the Iowa State passes, 11 of them to completions. The winners' line also showed well, with only occasional lapses, most of the 92 yards attained on the ground by the Tutors being gained as a result of two long runs. Teachers Have Stars.
