The Tigers won the game In the statistics column as well as in the score. They gained 204 yards rushing, to 52 for the Cornhuskers, and deserved the victory that made Don Faurot so happy. The first downs also showed a Missouri advantage, as the Tigers negotiated 14 to Nebraska's seven. Except for that one touchdown drive, the game was struggle of fine defenses.

But Illinois, finally outclassed but never outgamed, fought back in the third period, holding the Irish scoreless and gaining a second touchdown. Jimmy Smith counted on a one-yard smash after a 16-yard pass had been ruled complete because of Irish interference. Then Notre Dame, shooting her first stringers into action, put on its steam-roller act. Bertelli shot a 38-yard touchdown pass to In gaining their fifth straight 1941 triumph the Irish were a lethargic looking eleven as the third period ended, holding a slim seven point lead. Then, with a crushing ground and aerial attack, they rode rough shod over the Illini to turn the hard fought battle into a rout.

Illinois, with its line out charging the Notre Dame forwards consistently surprised everyone by opening the scoring.

Jack Johnson Likes Franklin. JACK JOHNSON, now 63, is still boxing minded. Has picked up a likely amateur and thinks he can build him up into somebody. Jack, last Friday, passed through St. Louis and paused long enough to say that he likes Lem Franklin.

He likes him so well he thinks Lemuel could beat Joe Louis. Well that may be just another of the mistakes Johnson has made about Louis. It was in St. Louis before Joe became champion, that Jack took occasion to tell the Post-Dispatch that Joe's footwork wa faulty and that he made other fatal mistakes. And then Joe went on to the title and a world record defense thereof.

The boys who like to "hark "back" believe that the Johnson of Jim Jeffries' day could have taken Louis handily. And may be a fact. We're not among those who belittle Johnson's fistic prowess.

The kick for-point was blocked.

Jacobs Goes to Work. The Indian warrior, Jack Jacobs, opened the fourth quarter with a high, zooming punt that sailed far over Casanega's head, traveling 76 yards to the Bronc six-yard line. A short time later, Freitas fumbled on his 15-yard line and Haberlein, the Sooner kicking specialist, came in and kicked a field goal from a slight angle 14 yards out.
