naoo. South Carolina's Frosh Star, 27-6 COLUMBIA, S. C. VP) -South Carolina finally got a sluggish of fense rolling Saturday for a 27-6 victory over Newberry in the opener for both teams before 12, 500 perspiring fans. South Carolina uncovered two speedy and fancy-stepping fresh man backs in Fred Bargiacchl of Memphis, and Bishop Strickland of Mullins.

Bargiac chi scored the first touchdown on a brilliant 28-yard second period dash. George Fong, the' only Chinese playing major college football in the country, for a 40-yard dash for the first touchdown. It worked again in the third period with Jack Swaner going 15 yards to score. Santa Clara held a one-point edge at the end of the first quarter as a result of three breaks late in the period. The Bears also counted in the second quarter when Bob Celerl passed 80 yards to End Dave Hirschler; and again when a drive carried them to the five.

Fong fumbled there, the ball rolling into the end zone where Hirschler recovered for the touchdown. Guard Jim Cullom converted. In the third period, the Bears got under way after Cullom recovered a Bronc fumble on the Santa Clara 23. A tally came in two plays. The last quarter saw mostly California third stringers in the game and they picked up a touchdown in the final minutes of play.

Penn State's attack, which stalled in the first period, began rolling in the second quarter when the, Nlttany Lions pushed across two touchdowns and followed with individual tallies in the third and fourth periods. The winners' first score came when dwood Pechtcl pegged to Charley Drarenovlch, who caught the ball on Washington State's 18-yard line and scam- pered over. Perm State's Bill Kyle, a tackle, accounted for the second touchdown when 'he recovered Dean Eggers' fumble behind' the Cougars' goal line. 1 Washington State averted a shutout with a 33-yard drive to a touchdown early in the last quarter. Penn State dominated the play in the' second half, how- ever, and their two touchdowns came as added Insurance.

Wallace Triplett, Negro speedster from Lamott, scored the Nittany Lions' third touchdown and Bob Rogel the fourth. Washington State's score came on a 10-yard run by halfback Bob McGuire. PESSt RTATK. WAStf STATE. Baroka Hnuthton Tamburo Norton IT.

The boys down toward the end of the bench played the last half ana, urea Dy a possic-ie mp io California as a prize, they kept the pressure on until the final play. In fact, Iowa scored a touchdown on the final play of the game. Parade 48 Hawks. The Hawks used 48 men all told.

North Dakota State used 31 of its 33 available men. In the parade of 14 Iowa backs, who carried the ball one or more times, appeared several young men of promise. One such was Quentln Kals-ershot, a right halfback who played almost no football last season. He ranwlth a sparkle that has been missing from Iowa football In recent seasons, carrying the ball nine times for 54 yards. Bob Longley, another promising newcomer, lost the most dazzling run of the game when his 72 yard touchdown gallop In the third quarter was nullified by a holdlne nenaltv on Iowa.

The Hawks had demonstrated excel lent blocking on the play. New Power Brigade. Bob Reynolds moved in with the nower backs, crashing six times for 40 yards. But when Ron Headington began bulling through the Bison with the reck lessness he first demonstrated last year, his showing was cut short. He carried the ball four times for 36 yards, then gave way to a substitute.

The game demonstrated that Iowa has both running and passing possibilities, with Indi cations that both of these attacking weapons will be more effective than they were a year ago. Defensively, Iowa's line never TVi nirr rial-nlnaa p-ivn the Bison were charged against the air defense.

Lead 26-0 at Half. The Bison, still comparatively fresh, battled the Hawks stub-hrtrnlv and vielded onlv one first- quarter touchdown. But the Hawks added three more in the second period for a 26-0 half-time lead. Bob Smith scored his second touchdown with less than two minutes of the second quarter gone. He climaxed a 75 yard march by ducking through from the two yard line on the fourteenth play of the drive.

Next to score was Ron Headington, who took the ball 33 yards out and in two nlavs Dut it on the seven-yard line. Kaisershot ripped off six before Headington counted. Kaisershot Scoots. Kaisershot, whose yardage was good at the outset, became more and more uncontrollable as the came advanced. He intercepted a Bison pass near midfield, then alternated with Bob Smith in racking up a quick touchdown.

Kaisershot first returned the captured pass 13 yards, then gained 31 more in uiree carries, coring from nine yards out. Iowa's reserves had their troubles early in the third quar ter, when the revived Herd took ovfer the offensive. The Bison re covered an Iowa fumble on the Hawk 36 and advanced to Iowa's 22. From there Bob Heer fired a pass. Officials charged Iowa with interference, although Estes intercepted the pitch, and North uaKoia otaie naa a iirsc aown on Iowa's seven-yard line.

Early in that period Iowa took a punt on its 38-yard line and, with DiMar co firing, advanced 55 yards in 4-S the one-yard line, however, and the ball bounded Into the end zone, where Finney recovered for a touchdown. Iowa's next score was spectacular. The drive started from Iowa's 27 and covered 51 yards in seven plays. That put -it on the Bison 22. From there Di-Marco pitched one to Jimmy Smith who fielded the ball, exploded a fancy cutback to elude two North Dakotans, and legged it into the end zone to score.

The harassed Bison took to the air shortly, with Harvey Solon passing from his own 35. The pass was deflected and Estes raked it in on the 30 and raced the 30 yards to score. Estes Hurls T. D. Strike.

Estes passed to Herb Shoener, who grabbed the ball on the goal-line and fought his way across. Iowa showed little except plain power through the middle and straight away passes. The few attempts the Hawks made to sweep the strong Bison ends were none too impressive.

(U.P.) California's Golden Bears, emerging from a decade of hibernation from gridiron glory, blasted out an easy 33-7 victory over better-than average Santa Clara football team Saturday as Coach Lynn "Waldorf, late of Northwestern, made a spec tacular debut into Pacific Coast conference grid ranks, The powerful, hard-fighting Bears, featuring a trick backfield, steady forward wall and a terrific pass defense, rode roughshod over a Bronco team that was considered by many to be the darkhorse of major college play in the west. Waldorf, who exposed a bag of tricks the like of which has not been seen in the Blue and Oojd uniform since the California "wonder and thunder" teams of long-past years, presented a versatile attack that ran up a 19-7 lead at half-time. An old Waldorf play from his days in the Big Nine accounted for two Bear touchdowns and big yardage. It was a spinner the guard hole that took the ball packer through the Jine of scrimmage where he cut sharply to the sidelines and then down the field.

"We're going to get plenty of good work from (Al) DiMarco and (Johnny) Estes, too." Both DiMarco and Estes were making their first appearances with the Hawk varsity and both went slightly berserk at their quarterback posts. DiMarco, the Mason City sophomore vho completed 13 passes in 24 attempts for 200 yards and three touchdowns in the spring battle, nailed seven receivers in 10 tries for 105 yards two yards less than Estes' totals. Little Al, a biMet tosser, liked theooperation, too "once they got their hands on that ball they really hung on." There wasn't any doubt about the outcome after the Hawka ripped up the sod in short order in the opening period for their first score. They settled down and really got the first one," Dr. Eddie agreed, "by pounding away.

The team last year wanted to go out and run 85 yards right away." Duke Curran, who Is one of the faster Iowa backs, went hobbling to the sidelines after his first jaunt, a six-yard trip, with an injured leg.

(F) Alabama's Crimson Tide faltered only once Saturday night in fashioning a workman-like. 34-7 victory over game but out-manned Mississippi Southern. The Tide defense slipped in the third quarter and the Southerners carried the ball over on a lateral-forward-lateral pass play that carried 71 yards with Bubber Phillips going over. It was practically the only time the Tide had any real trouble with the visitors' tricky Harry Gilmer, the Tide's 160-pound passing star, tossed to his old 1945 battery mate. Rebel Steiner, for one touchdown and ran another over.

Norwood Hodges, sub fullback, tallied twice for the Tide. Eddie Salem, freshman tailback, collected the other Alabama touchdown. Mississippi Southern got three first downs to Alabama's 19, and picked up a net of 44 yards rushing to the Tide's 284. The Southerners 71 yards earned on their scoring play gave them a net of 122-yard passing. Alabama keeping Gilmer under wraps, netted 105.
