1 (AP). Georgia Tech's Ramblin' Wreck discarded its famed razzle-dazzle offensive long enough to smash to a 20-to-18 last quarter victory over Tulsa's classy Golden Hurrlcain here today before 63,000 fans in the most sensational game in Sugar Bowl history.

With the final quarter half gone.

Fullback Ed Scharfschwerdt went over from the one- rfoot line. The great Eddie Prokop, Tech tailback, and Scharfschwerdt alternated in ripping the Tulsa tackles in the drive. Prokop's 15-yard slash off tackle was the long- est trip of the drive. The hustling Tulsa Hurricanes struck with lightning fury in an 86-yard touchdown drive in the "first five minutes of play. Clyde Leforce, 165-pound triple-threater, climaxed the drive by passing to Ed Shedlosky on the Georgia Tech "15-yard line and Shedlosky had blockers to spare when he crossed the Tech goal line.

Longest Sugar Bowl Bun. Leforce's placement was wide, Jlut Tulsa strengthened its bid for victory when Little Jimmy Ford, 145-pound back from Fort Worth, -Texas, raced 76 yards for a touchdown on the first play of the sec- tond quarter.

1 (AP). Red-headed Steve Van Buren, the moving van for Baton Rouge, took 1944's Orange Bowl football championship right out of a Texas A. and M. showcase today and sent it home to Louisiana State University, freight paid, on the long end of a 19-14 score that thrilled 27,000 fans. 1 odds.

Southern California came up with a brilliant passing game that just couldn't miss and its rugged line, contributing its peak performance, repeatedly piled up Washington's powerhouse runner, Sam Robinson. The Trojans scored all four touchdowns on passes and picked up two points on an automatic safety in the final period, as they blocked a fourth down punt by the Washington quarterback, Gerry Austin, the ball rolling into the end zone. Washington had completed its 1943 season undefeated and one of its conquests was the strong March Field Army team by a 27- to-7 score. The same Army team had vanquished the Trojans, 35 to 0. This, however, was another day and an inspired Southern Califor nia eleven that did everything right.

Whereas it had made 50 fumbles and kicked away many scoring chances during its regular schedule, it played flawlessly against the Huskies, who had a 12-pounds-to-the-man edge in weights. Weight a Disadvantage. Washington's weight probably was a big disadvantage because the Trojans put their superior speed and passing skill to the utmost use and outdodged the slower footed pass defenders from the North on two occasions for touchdowns. Coach Jeff Cravath of Southern California sent Jim Hardy in at quarterback for Ainslie Bell in the second period and the men of Troy immediately passed and ran their way 72 yards for a touchdown. The hi JIIBWIi sis 4" Georgia Tech got back in the game by driving 71 yards to score, with Fullback Frank Broyles smashing across from the one-foot line.

Broyles' 26-yard pass to Walter Kilzer, and Prokop's tackle smashes featured the drive. Prokop kicked the extra point from placement. Fords 68-yard punt that rolled dead on the Tech 6-yard line and a fumble by Broyles set up Tulsa's second touchdown of the second quarter just before the half ended. Barney White recovered for the Hurricanes on the Tech's 6-yard stripe. Leforce skirted right end to score Tulsa's final touchdown.

But Leforce missed his third try for extra point. Finds the Range. Prokop found his passing In the third quarter. Parked on the Tulsa 47 yard line, he threw to Tinsley on the 30 and the lanky Tech end outran the Hurricane backs to score standing up. Prokop missed the kick for extra point, Georgia Tech had a big advan-, tage in statistics, piling up 455 yards passing and running to 298 for Tulsa and leading in first downs 25 to 8.

It was the East that first broke the deadlock with Hoernschemeyer, the 187-pound freshman who made the headlines in the Middle West this season, a main cog in the rally.

With the ball on his team's 31-yard marker, he hitthe line for 14 yards, then whipped a pass to his Indiana teammate, Pete Pihos, good for 11 yards and another first down. The other 18-year-old, Sensanbaugher, figured in a 19-yard dash; Hoernschemeyer knocked off 12 yards and finally the ball was 15 yards from goal. Hoernschemeyer passed to Pihos, who caught the ball over the line. Tavener's attempted conversion failed. The west took the klckoff and put the ball into play on its 41-yard line.

Wedemeyer lost six yards on a pass attempt but he made the next one click. The play started on the 33-yard stripe. Hustling Herman tossed the ball 30 yards to Dick Renfro, quarterback from Washington State College, who raced 35 yards for the score. The wet ball slithered off Norberg's foot on the attempted conversion but the score was tied 13-13. The Eastern team definitely was the superior and was on the offense most of the time.

The easterners missed a chance to clinch the game early in the fourth period after a 65-yard advance to the West's 15. Sensanbaugher highlighted the drive with a 41-yard run. Only 15,000 See Texas And Randolph Field Tie DALLAS, Jan. 1 (AP). The nation's No.
