-ENTRIES BOSTON, Oct 17. Boston College climbed over the toughest hump of its 1942 football journey today as it squeezed past the North Carolina Cloudbusters, 7-6, before 25,000 at Fenway Park. The Eagles can thank Don Cur-rivan, their big right end, for their victory because this young man played All-America football all afternoon, scoring the lone Boston touchdown and averting a certain North Carolina score late in the game. His tally came late in the first period, when Mickey Connolly coolly dropped back and rifled one down the middle to Currivan, who took it on the dead run on North Carolina's 35 and waved his way for the rest of the distance. Con-nally's place kick split the center Fordham Outscores West Virginia, 23-14 NEW YORK, Oct.

17. The Fordham Rams rambled to a 23 to 14 victory over West Virginia University's Mountaineers today in a rough and rowdy football frolic that had the 12,000 spectators at the Polo Grounds more confused than excited. Although unable to stir up a sustained drive at any time, the Rams struck three sharp, unexpected blows in the first half to take a 20 to 0 lead. Steve Filipowicz passed 40 yards to George Cherverko for a touchdown in the first period after the Rams intercepted a Mountaineer aerial. Then on the second play after Fordham again got the ball, Filipowicz circled his right end on a beautiful 71-yard sprint for another touchdown.

In the second period Cheverko passed 34 yards to Ed Slodowski, substitute left end for Fordham's third touchdown. This seemed sufficient till a roughing penalty pushed- the Rams back to their own 10 near the close of the third quarter and a punt by Al Litwa was blocked by Ed Kulakowski. The Mountaineers banged over a touchdown at the start of the final chapter, Charley Schrader crashing center for two yards. Then moments later Schrader intercepted a pass to put West Virginia on Fordham's 39 and Allan Martin passed 35 yards to Dick McElwee for another touchdown. -Bob Henry's 17-yard field goal in the second quarter.

Postus reeled off a gain of 13 yards for Villanova early in the first period, but lost 20 yards on the next play. Neither team could develop a sustained attack and Corry and Pritko engaged in a punting duel. Towards the end of the quarter Corry kicked out on the Villanova 12. After Pritko punted back to the Florida 44, Mitchell ground out a first down on the Villanova 46 and Corry, on a criss cross, smashed through to me zo. villanova braced and took the ball on downs on the 21 as the period ended scoreless.

Florida scored mid way of the second period when a lineman broke through to block Postus' attempt for a quick kick. Graham picked up the loose ball and ran 26 yards to the Villanova nine. Three line plunges were smeared for no gain but on fourth down Henry, a sub, was rushed into the fray and booted a perfect field goal from the 17. Villanova threatened after Postus returned the ensuing kick off 48 yards and Pritko kicked out on the Florida four, but the Southerners got out of danger when Villanova was penalized for running into the kicker behind the goal line. Score at half time: Florida 3, Villanova 0.

A 23-yard forward pass, Jones to Mitchell, put Florida on the Villanova 37 mid way of the third quarter, but the Wildcats braced and Corry kicked out on the 16. Postus intercepted a Jones aerial on the Villanova 42 and with Smith lugging the ball on virtually every play Villanova marched to the Florida 31 from where Postus passed to Pritko on the 23. A 15-yard penalty for unnecessary roughness put the pigskin on the Florida seven and Zamlynski hit guard to the six inch stripe as the third quarter ended. Zamlynski was dumped for no gain, but on fourth down Postus dove over tackle for a touchdown to climax a 58-yard drive. Konop-ka's try for the extra point was wide.

After the ensuing kick-off Jones passed 25 yards to Mitchell who fumbled on the Villanova 26 and Postus recovered. Hill recovered a Villanova fumble on the Wildcat 41, but Dzitko intercepted Mitchell's aerial and ran 60 yards to the Florida 31. The Wildcats couldn't gain from there and Pritko punted out on the eight, keeping Florida bottled up in its own territory the rest of the game. With only five seconds to play Zamlynski got loose for a 40-yard touchdown sprint down the sidelines. Pezelski converted.

Gophers Regain Winning Stride LINCOLN, Oct. 17. Minnesota's Golden Gophers got back on the winning track today by beating Nebraska, 15 to 2, on a blocked kick, a 40-yard touchdown run in the first period and a 69-yard touchdown drive early in the third period before a crowd of approximately 25,000. The scoring started when big Paul Mitchell, Minnesota tackle, crashed in to block Howard Debus' punt, sending the ball flying out of the end zone for a safety. Tackle Vic Schleigh sent the free kick booming down the field to Herb Hein, Gopher end, who came back to his 49 and a minute later Minnesota made it 9 to 0 on a 40-yard gallop by Halfback Dick Luckemeyer.

Bill Garnaas kicked the point. Held under control in the second period, the Gophers swept to a second touchdown with the second half kickoff. Joe Silovich started the Minnesota juggernaut rolling with a 26-yard return to the Gopher 31, then passed to Luckemeyer on the Minnesota 49. Power took the ball down to the Nebraska 23, then Silovich hurled a low pass that Hein picked off his shoetops on the Nebraska 15, whirled and ran over. The try for point was blocked.

YMI Conquers Maryland, 29-0 LEXINGTON, Oct. 17. UP) Fullback Joe Muha, a football wizard with magic in his powerful arms and legs, shattered Clark Shaughnessy's dream today to build a gridiron empire this year at the University of Maryland as power-laden VMI roared to a 29-0 triumph before a homecoming crowd of 5,000. A minute after he kicked off to Maryland, Muha began to move like clockwork. After Tommy Mont had booted to Dick Deshazo on the VMI 48, Captain Muha, 200-pounds of dynamite from Mc- iees nocKs, nanaea ine Dan to Al Turriziani.

Turriziani drove two yartls into Maryland territory and the Cadets were on their way to make the kill. Muha rifled a pass to Bill Ward on the 34 and then rammed to the 16. Deshazo got one and then rounded end for a touchdown. Deshazo, rookie back from Roanoke, converted. An interception by Muha of Mont's pass at midfield set off Cadet scoring drive.

Deshazo passed to Clark at end and he sped to the nine. A lateral from Muha to Deshazo put the ball on the three. Muha went over for a touchdown. Soph Turriziani added another from the seven in the second period. Maryland's best thrust bogged on the VMI 19 after intermission and the Cadets came back with a fourth tally, Halfback Seay going over from the 11.

VMI wound up its scoring with a safety in the fourth when Barnes was tackled behind his goal line by Clark, VMI end. Boysy Given Win In Jamaica Race NEW YORK, Oct. 17.

TCU Trims Aggies In Conference Tilt COLLEGE STATION, Texas.

Oct. 17. Texas Christian's Purple Frogs thundered on among the nation's unbeaten, untied football teams today over the hull of once-mighty Texas A M. The score was 7-2 and that just about tells the story of a gripping Southwest Conference game played before a crowd of 14,000. Coming back to batter the Aggies from goal line to goal line in the last half, Texas Christian lived up to its reputation of giving out only when the chips are down.

Against Arkansas it was like that, against UCLA and now Texas A M. SCORELESS TIE RALEIGH, N. Oct. 17. (Pi N.

C. State and Wake Forest colleges battled to a scoreless tie before a crowd of 12,000 persons in a Southern Conference football game tonight. of the uprights for what proved to be the winning point. The Cloudbusters' score came with startling suddenness just after one of many grim Boston stands deep in Eagle territory. The North Carolina team, apparently deep in the hole when a Wally Boudreau punt went out side on the Cloudbuster 11, changed the whole complexion of the game when Leq Eshmont, their outstanding back, rifled a pass to Bill Krywicki in the deep flat.

Krywicki had a five-yard head-start but Currivan finally overhauled him on Boston's 21. The Eagles then bottled up a North Carolina aerial attack to take over on their 16. Time was running out and they used as much of it as they could to freeze the ball before Ed Burns, a back-field replacement, went back to kick on fourth down. Steve Hudacek was In like a flash and took the boot right on his chest. The ball rolled back over the Boston goal line and John Witkowski just beat Burns in a frantic dive for the pigskin.

Walt Zwiezynski went back to kick the extra point but his try from placement was wide of the mark and that, with less than two minutes to go, was enough to assure the Eagles of victory.

Widener Filly Wins Keeneland Feature LEXINGTON, Oct. 17. UP) Fair Weather, the shifty daughter of Sickle-Fairday, raced to a popular victory in the Keeneland Special, the 2-year-old filly race which featured today's program at Keeneland race course. Fair Weather earned $5,175 for her owner, Joseph E. Widener.

Backed down to almost even money, Fair Weather took the lead soon after the start, opened up a two-length lead along the back stretch and won by four lengths with her jockey, Eddie Wielander, looking back. Second was Valdina Marl who came fast in the stretch to nip Trustee a head for the place. LONG SCORING PLAY WINS FOR BROWN-PROVIDENCE, R. Oct. 17.

() Brown's All-America back-field candidate, Bob Margarita, put on a one man running show in the fourth period here today to lead the Brown Bears to their third straight triumph, a 7-0 conquest of the Lafayette Leopards. Margarita raced 64 yards off his own left tackle midway in the final quarter for the touchdown that meant the ball game. Later in the same session the Medford, speedster cut off his own left tackle again for 24 yards and an apparent second touchdown but had that effort nullified when the Bruins were adjudged guilty of holding. CADETS BUS! COLUMBIALIONS, 34-6 NEW YORK, Oct. 17.

UP) Army's football machine, featuring a line that opened gaping holes for the backs and backs who opened the eyes of 30,000 partisans fans with spectacular gallops, completely crushed Columbia's hapless Lions at Baker Field today, 34 to 6. Twice in the first period the Cadets hit pay dirt, and twice more in the second. They added their final score in the third quarter then, with reserves taking over the burden, permitted the never-quitting Lions to punch across a lone touchdown in the final period. Sturdy Hank Mazur was brightest star in the Army touchdown parade, but he had ample help. Mazur's performances included a 65-yard off-tackle gallop to the Columbia five-yard line in the first period, Paul Governali overhauling him and bringing him down by the nape of the neck, and a 70-yard touchdown run in the second quarter.

A Governali pass from his own 20 on the second scrimmage play of the game gave Army its first chance to show what it had. George Troxell, Cadet back, intercepted the ball on the Columbia 41. Army advanced to the seven, from where Mazur skipped over for the touchdown which didn't count. Unperturbed by a five-yard penalty, the Cadets went back to work, Ralph Hill finally going over from the three-yard line. Mazur's gallop to the five yard line set up the second score, Troxell ramming over from the 18 inch line, and Mazur personally accounted for the third touchdown mid-way in the second quarter with his fine 70-yard run.
