Curtis Kuykendall, 160-pound speedster from Sallis, was the spearhead of the Tiger attack.

He hes been a pal to me and i sure aint going to let him down and cause him to be chastized. i guess im forgetting this is supposed to be a sports colum. sorry to see that our wildcats are having their claws clipped so regularly but maybe now they will snap out of It and give us some victories, but i see the team is going grate and that looks good for next season and also for the work of the quarterback club in making it possible for the boys to get good training before they get to high school. i understand general dwite d. izenhower recently paid tribute to the nations bowlers for their war and postwar effort in helping gi joe.

Dooung a peneci FAR Ramblers 1 Foot From Winning Marker When Contest Ends CLEVELAND, (JP) For the sec. ond time in as many Saturdays, Navy came back from the shadow of defeat to gain a 6-6 tie with Notre Dame on a 60-yard pass in terception in the final period and remain shakily in the ranks of the undefeated. The game ended on a high note of confusion, after the Irish in two plunges from the one-yard line had failed to score what would have been the winning touchdown. The great crowd of 82,000 did not know for several minutes after the con test ended whether it was a tie score or a Notre Dame victory, They didn't know until the Irish players quit arguing with the ref eree and started from the field.

The final period was a thriller. With the Irish holding stubbornly to a 6-0 lead gained on a seven yard plunge by Fullback Frank Ruggerio, in the opening quarter, time appeared to be running out on the Middies. Then, with seven minutes left Frank Dancewicz tried a pass. It went squarely into the arms of Clyde Scott. Navy halfback, who raced 60 yards for the tying score, Jack Currence's attempted place ment for extra point went wide.

The Irish, with only one minute remaining, put on a sensational 78-yard drive that all but sank the future admirals. George Ratter man whipped a long pass to Bill Leonard, who raced a total of 61 yards before he was pulled down from behind on Navy's 17-yard line by John Welsh. A five-yard penalty against the Middies for excessive timeouts took it to the 12, and then Dancewicz pegged a pass to Phil Colella, who was forced out of bounds on the one-yard line. Less than 30 sec onds of play remained, and twice Dancewicz took the ball from center and tried to bang across on a quarterback sneak. Both times he failed Time ran out just as the Irish field general made his second dive.

The ball was nudging the chalk line, but it wasn't across. The entire Navy squad went running out on the field and for a time there appeared to be an argument, but it later was explained that the ref eree was having the two captains flip a coin to see which school would take home the ball. Navy never really threatened to score except for Scott's run. Their best effort was a brief splurge in the second period that reached Notre Dame's 24. The figures told the story all too plainly: Notre Dame 179 yards by rushing to Navy's 60; Notre Dame 116 yards on passes to Navy 55.

Navy did not make a first down until the second period, and at no time in the game ever really got Its offense rolling. Its longest sus tained effort was a 38-yard rush in the closing quarter which reached just to midfield.

It was a fumble which set up Northwestern's first touchdown, and it was a bad punt which led to the other, Trailing 14 to 6 going into the last period, Ohio blew one chance on a fumble and then blasted its way -55 yards to touchdown territory with Paul Sarringhaus and OUie Cline carrying the mail. From the 10-yard line it took Cline four plays to batter through tne stub born Wildcat line. The clock showed eight minutes and 15 seconds to go. Alex Verdova then roared deep into Northwestern territory only to have Sarringhaus fumble -with less than a minute to go. After Northwestern's punt the Bucks blasted their way to the final points.

It was Cline, then Daugh-erty and then Cline twice more to move the ball to the 15 from where Schnittker booted his game-winning points.

Ohio- State 161 Northwestern 14 1 Passing And Running Of George Clark" Figures In Duke Attack ATLANTA, (JP) George Clark, Duke's brilliant halfback, led the Blue Devils to a 14-6 win over Geor gia Tech here Saturday in a mud battle before a near capacity crowd of 30,000, The Devils capitalized on the versatile ability of the new Navy en sign, who was playing his last game before being transferred, to score once in the second period and again in the third.

Clark opened the initial 52-yard scoring drive, after a listless first period featuring numerous punts, by passing 30 yards to Gordon Carver. Then he ran six yards to the Tech 16. Kelly Mote, on an end around, reached the 12 and Carver bulled his way nine more. Clark pounded two yards to the one and Fred Palladino lunged over. The Devils put the game away with another quick touchdown early in the second half as Clark set sail from the Tech 49 to the Tech two where George Mathews pulled him down from behind Again, Clark was thwarted inches short of the goal and once more Palladino knifed his way across.

Two perfect placements by Bert Sutton followed each of Palladino scores. Meanwhile, both lines had sty mied the respective running attacks on most occasions and the precarious footing nullified attempts at cutbacks and wide end runs. Late in the third quarter, Tech drove 50 yards only to be held for downs at the Duke one-yard line. The attack got underway with Jack Peek, Mathews and Johnny Mcintosh hitting the Duke line for consistent' short gains to reach the Devils' 30-yard marker. Then Mathews passed 28 yards to Walter Kilzer, who was pulled down at the goal line.

Three smacks at the line failed to produce the score and the quarter ended just before- the snap for fourth down. However, the play was run and Peek passed to Bill Busbin in the end zone. The play was nullified and the teams changed goals where Duke stopped a fourth down smack at the line by Mathews, just inches short, and Carver punted out short to the Duke 26. Tech roared back to score in two plays. Mcintosh hit the line for 13 yards and Mathews, on a fake handoff ran the naked reverse wide to the right to score standing up.

Jack Helms' placement was wide. Georgia Tech had a 12 to eight advantage in first downs, but Duke gained 136 yards rushing to 131 for the Jackets. Tech passed 12 times, completing five for 79 yards. Duke's sole aerial attempt was the one which set up the first touchdown. Duke 0 7 7 014 Ga.

(JP) A Tulane football team which had been cuffed around all season rose up Saturday to knock Mississippi State out of the unbeaten, 14 to 13. The crowd of more than 25,000 watched in a frenzy throughout the final period as the hard-hitting State eleven smashed to the three-yard line in a desperate drive to overcome a one-point edge held by the Greenies. The Mississippians took a first period lead when Don Robinson broke loose on a 22-yard scoring jaunt. M.

T. Burress was wide with his placement. Before the period was over, Ernie Crouch shot a pass to Dick Hoot, who ran 39 yards to score. Harry Levonian converted. State marched 35 yards to score in the second period and go into the intermission with a 13 to 7 lead.

Burress made a perfect placement. A fumble by Robinson on the Tulane seven set the stage for the final touchdown. Tulane went 93 yards in nine plays, Rideout going over. Again Levonian booted the point. Miss.

Florida struck for paydirt quickly in the first quarter, but was held for downs on the Tiger 3 and never threatened seriously thereafter. On the third play of the game Weldon Wright got outside his right end, cut back to the left and raced 59 yards before big Frank Gatski, 225-pound Tiger center, pulled him down from behind. L.

B. Dupree made five on the first carry, but three further efforts were stopped cold and Auburn took over. The remainder of the half was uneventful, with Auburn having a little better of "the play, but the Tigers soon demonstrated their superiority after play was resumed in third period. One drive was halted deep in Gator territory, and Kuykendall punted to the Florida 2. Hogan, outstanding punter Saturday with a wet ball, kicked to his 34, and the Tigers scored in six plays, Lang banging it over from the five through a gaping hole in the middle of the Florida line.

Smalley's kick was good. Another drive at this time for 50 yards produced a second touchdown early in the final period. Kuykendall opened with a 15 yard run and after another first had been made he rushed 25 yards to the one-foot line. He drove across for the score on his second try- Auburns final marker joiiowea recovery of a fumDie oy uaisKi at the Gator 37.

TO GIRD FOR DAVIS CUP PLAY NEW YORK. (JP) American tennis officials began scanning the field Friday for players capable of wresting the Davis Cup from Australia as the official challenge from the United States arrived at the office of the Australian Lawn Tennis Association in Melbourne. The announcement that the first Dostwar challenge for the 45-year- old international trophy had been received by the country that has held it since 1939 set off immedi ate speculation here as to the team that will be selected. Before the net stars of the United States ever reach the final matches scheduled in Australia in December. 1946.

they must sur vive a series of preliminary rounds next soring. But it would take a colossal upset to knock the Americans out of the running. The last challenge round was completed at Merion, in 1939 when Australia defeated the United States. 3-2. Great Britain, Australia and the United States have monopolized cup challenge rounds since 1933.

Walter Pate, captain of U. S. cup teams from 1935 through 1939 and presently chairman of the USLTA Davis Cup committee of management, said Frankie Parker and Bill Talbert must be included in any guessing on the makeup of the U. team. They ve opposed eacn other in the finals of the 1944-45 national singles championship and each time Parker has defeated his rival.

Another pair of likely candidates is Gardner Mulloy of Coral Gables, and Bobby Falkenburg, the Hollywood, youngster. Needed importantly lor cup piay is a strong doubles team to oppose the Australian tandem of Jack Brombich and Adrian Quist, who won their last two challenge round doubles matches. They also represented their nation in singles. It would be heartening for our cause. Pate said, if the United States could count on Jack Kramer and Ted Schroeder.

national doubles champions in 1940 and 1941. Kramer and Parker won the U. S. doubles in 1943. Great Britain, France, Canada, Mexico, Brazil, Chile, Argentina and Ecuador are expected to challenge for the ti phy and Pate says it isn't likely that it will take the best V.

S. performers to beat any of these countries. Pate said the United States team if it gets by the preliminaries probably will reach Australia the latter part of November. Whether the journey is made by air or water, a match will be sought for the players a week after they land, he said. Army .54 Villanova 0, and coach of pitchers, will assume his new duties Dec.

15 when Chandler establishes his headquarters in Cincinnati, Ohio. Ruel will be 50 years old next February. He will succeed Leslie M. O'Connor, for 24 years first assistant to the late Kcnesaw Mountain Landis. O'Connor will become vice president and general manager of the White Sox, also on Dec.

15. Ruel. an attorney and recognized authority on baseball law, said he was gratified with his appoint ment. "I am sure everything will work out to the general benefit of baseball," he added. "I am happy over my appointment.

First, because of its splendid opportunities and second because my appointment was the personal selection of Mr. Chandler." Ruel has been Chandler's choice almost from the day the new commissioner was elected. Ruel's contract is for one year only, but Chandler said it undoubtedly would be renewed from year to year. Although weighing only 148 pounds, Ruel broke into the major leagues as a catcher in 1915 for the St. Louis Browns.

He ap peared in only three games that year, but after two seasons with Memphis in the Southern Associa tion, he wound up with the New York Yankees in 1917 catching 105 games. Ruel was with the Boston Red Sox in 1921 and Washington bought him in 1923. He reached the high point of his playing career with the Senators, serving as catcher for the renowned Washington pitcher, Walter Johnson. He was Johnson's battery mate from 1923 through 1930. Ruel was an excellent hitter, batting over .300 in four major league campaigns.

Ruel, a native of St. Louis, received his law degree from Washington University, St. Louis, in 1923, the year he joined the Senators. He is the father of two sons and two daughters. Ruel joined White Sox in 1934 as a reserve catcher, but his work with the pitchers so impressed Manager Dykes that he was retired from the active list and given the assignment of coaching the White Sox pitching staff.

WOLVERINES SHOVE ANN ARBOR, Pour ing across three touchdowns in the final period, Michigan's Wolver ines kicked Minnesota out of the Big, Ten title race here Saturday by hammering the Gophers 26 to 0 before the second largest crowd ever to watch a football game in Michigan Stadium 85,132. It was the largest in the nation this year. The Wolverines, tnus acnievea their third-conference victory against a single loss and stayed in the thick of the Big Ten fight. Michigan counted its first touch down in the last minute of the opening period, sending Quarter back iloward Yerges across irom the one-yard line. Michigan drove to the Minnesota 17 early in the third but lost the ball on an intercepted pass and didn't get started rolling again until a minute before the final period opened.

Starting from their own 48, the Wolverines smashed 54 yards on five plays and a roughing penalty. Fullback Jack Weisenburger crashing through the middle to score from the 12-yard line. Less than four minutes later Michigan scored again, this time on Teninga's three yard punch through the left side of the Gopher line. Later Don Robinson passed to Warren Bentz in the end lone for the final touchdown.

Alabama Kentucky 60 19m KENTUCKY Losers' Ability To Score Is Biggest Surprise Of 60 To 19 Game LOUISVILLE, (JP) Ala-bama employed a withering ground attack Saturday to crush Kentucky, 60-19, with 10,000 persons in the stands.

The only surprise of the game was Kentucky's ability to score three touchdowns against the bowl-bound Crimson Tide, which gained its sixth straight victory. The great passing arm of Harry Gilmer was used only twice against Kentucky, one connecting for a touchdown, Gilmer's tenth on passes this season. He brought the crowd to its feet on two other occasions, however, with touchdown runs of 59 and 95 yards. Lowell Tew opened the 'Bama scoring with a 35-yard jaunt on the third play of the game. Norwood Hodges stepped off 17 yards to pay dirt a matter of moments later, and Gilmer then turned in his 59-yard touchdown dash.

Kentucky, however, wouldn't be denied on a 76-yard touchdown march that featured the passing arm of George Blanda, who heaved to Dick Hensley for the score. Hodges scored from the two- for Alabama at the start of the third quarter, and this was followed by a 78-yard scoring dash by Boyd Pettus. me game jiemucKians men came back with another aerial circus, again starring Blanda. Two passes to Wallace Jones were good for 61 yards, setting the ball up on the Tide 7. Babe Ray scored.

James Robertson scored the bnly Crimson marker in the third stanza on a 51-yard run. Kentucky added its last score in the same period, with Hartford Granitz passing 24 yards to Jones for the score. Gilmer's 95-yard masterpiece was registered in the fourth quarter, and Louis Scales ended the debacle with a touchdown from the Kentucky 2. Hugh Morrow booted placements after six Alabama touchdowns, missing three, and Fred Ferris plaee-kicked Kentucky's lone extra marker. Alabama 21 30 6 13 fiO Kentucky 6 6 7 019 BE CLOSING FEATURE With but nine more nights of racing before the curtain falls November 14 at the Palm Beach Kennel Club, track officials are busy planning for the closing week.

At a meeting tomorrow it will be decided whether or not several distance races will be run. Seven-sixteenths races are extremely popular with the fans, though not too popular with greyhound owners. Although dogs -have run half a mile, a trek over the gruelling seven sixteenths course is just about the limit the greyhounds are asked to run. If a long race is decided upon there will not be a shortage of entries for the kennels are filled with distance runners. One of the best of these is Little Pearl, the stellar canine from Johnny Allen's kennels.

Accord- runs faster at the end of five-sixteenths than she does at four and will be able to travel seven-sixteenths at a terrific clip. The long lead which Art Wilson and Johnny Allen held during the first two weeks in the race for the honors of being the leading money winning owner has been cut down until L. B. Benedict, the newcomer from Tampa now holds a slight edge. Lee Tee, Gallant Scat, My Honey Dew, Gallant Ruby, Gallant Fleeta, and Gallant Linda are a few of Benedict's winners.

Probably the biggest surprise of the past week was the fine races run by Brave' Bid, who came here heralded as the second best greyhound in America. Brave Bid's -early performances were disappointing and lt was not until October 20, that the son of Brave Gesture actually began to show its real speed. On that date the canine finished second behind Lee Tee. Thi-AA liinlilu latA Ha enrnrieAl Kif winning and then 'again breaking from the outside beat home Lea Tee by lengths. Last night, he surprised the fans by breaking from the two hole and winning easily.

Auburn .19 Florida ,0 LEAD RICHMOND Final 36 Holes Of Meet Today; Johnny Bulla In Third Place RICHMON'D, (JP) Ben Hogan, smooth stroking professional from Hershey. and Jimmy Hines, of New York, were tied for the leadership 'in the $10,000 Richmond Open golf tournament at the end of 36 holes Saturday, their 142's being even par for the tough Hermitage Country Club course. The final 36 holes will be played Sunday. Both men, playing together Saturday, had 70's, one under par for the course, which has withstood the efforts of all but four golfers to better it during the two days play by a field which originally numbered 177 of the country's leading golfers. Johnny Bulla, of Atlanta, also posted a 70 to stay one stroke be hind the leaders with a 143.

Slam min' Sammy Snead, the long-hit' ting money winner from Hot Springs, posted a par-equal ling 71 Saturday to stay within stroking distance at 145. Tournament officials announced that Sunday's field would consist of the five low amateurs and professionals registering 153 or better, reducing the field to 53 golfers Gallerites and players were offering varied reasons Saturday for the high scoring of the country's hot golfers on the Hermitage course. For one thing a high wind which virtually became a storm in the afternoon, made accuracy difficult with high shots. Hermitage members said their course was jusi iuo lougn ior ine Dig-uine- players to get in their sub-par rounds. Others pointed out that the par for the course has been cut from 73 to 71 for this tournament, by reducing two par fives to fours and eliminating "automatic birdies" for the pro's.

Others said fairways were in bad condition for summer lies, and that pines were placed with diabolical intent. Thlrlv-six hole scores: Ben Hogan. Hershev. 72-70142. Jimmy Htnes.
