Lee. By LESTER BIEDERMAN Press Staff Writer WORCESTER, Oct. 24 Holy Cross dipped deeply into the lore of old-time football magic here today at Fitton Field and turned one of its only two scoring opportunities into a touchdown that sent Carnegie Tech down to a somewhat tainted defeat, 7 to 0. While a crowd of 22,000 sat in the stands under a whipping wind and a bright sun, pleading for the Crusaders to march along as they've done for two years, the stubborn Tartans completely took the play away and dominated the ball game except for the final nine minutes. Everything was Carnegie's today everything but the final score.

The ictory made it 18 in a row since Temple stung the Crusaders here In 1934. Ancient Play Works The musty Statue of Liberty play made famous by Fielding Yost's grid teams at Michigan shot Holy Cross on her way late in the fourth period to put them into position where he goal line wasn't so far distant. Holy Cross had received a punt on the Tech 39 but after two plays the Skibos had pushed the home boys back to the 45. Brucato swung around his left end and. en route, picked the ball off Ouellette's outstretched hand as the latter stood ready to pass.

When Brucato stopped running he was perched on the Tech nine, a gain of 36 yards. Brucato might have continued over the goal line, but, after he neatly sidestepped the Tech safety man, he stumbled and fell to tha turf. Shields was then tossed for a five-yard loss by Hudson. But, on the second down Ouellete passed perfectly into O'Donnell's hands, and, as the latter firmly held his ground on the one it was no trick at all to fall forward for the only touchdown of a bitterly waged battle. Kidd tacked on the seventh point and the contest was settled then and there.

Holy Cross had been strictly a power team, no trick stuff, no razzle-dazzle'. In the two previous games, the Crusaders used only one forward pass. Today they tried two and completed only one but that brought the touchdown. Tartan Line Holds A minute or so before the Statue of Liberty play was brought out of hiding, the Crusaders had rapped on the toucdown door, through the medium of a blocked kick, but Carnegie's line, playing its grandest and toughest game of the year, quickly and quietly attended to that. The fourth quarter was in its infancy when Ray Carnelly stood on the Tech 37 and tried to punt.

He was slow, and a surge of Crusader linemen burst through and. led by Collins, blocked ths kick. Matelan recovered but it was on fourth down and the ball given to Holy Cross on the Carnegie 22 The Skibos rose up with all their might and in three plays. Holy Cross had lost four yards. Osmanski tried a field goal from his 38.

but the boot was low and wide. Four plays later Holy Cross scored. The cold statistics show Carnegie with five first downs to three for Holy Cross and 103 yards from rushing to 84 for the winners. Tech ate up most of her yardage In the first three periods but just couldn't dent the tough Holy Cross defense when yards were needed mHoiy Cross failed to get beyond Us own 41 during the first three Continued On Page 6 Tech Statistics Tech .103 14 4 49 14 3.5 87 3 .30 Holy 3. 84.

Bolster. By CHESTER L. SMITH Press Sports Editor With a heave and a ho and the all-encompassing sweep of a bull rhino at full charge, Pitt's white shirted football crew came storming back to the football highlands yesterday at the Stadium before a hoarsely-cheering crowd of one of the greatest throngs ever to look down on a game from the towering reaches of the Oakland saucer. Any eleven in Jhe land might have withered before the scythelike mastery of the Panther rushline and the surge of their backs on this particular afternoon, but it was the hitherto-undefeated team of Notre Dame that received the full force of Additional Photos appear on Pages four and six, this see-tion.

the blow, and the score 26 to 0 was no false criterion or the superiority of the victors. Not since they were shackled by the Army, 27 to 0, in 1925 have the Ramblers been quite so badly manhandled. It was the most onesided reversal in the regime of Coach Elmer Layden, and it also gave Pitt the edge in the modern-day series with the Irish, four games to three. With Mad Marshall Goldberg, the sophomore thunderer from Elkins, W. as both the hammer and lance of the attack, the Panthers, starting slowly as though to probe the strengths and weaknesses of the Irish and jot them down for future reference, made an unsuccessful attempt at a field goal in the opening period, and then jammed across a touchdown in the second quarter to lead.

7 to 0. at halftime. In the third quarter, Pitt scored again and the rout was complete when they twice crossed the goal in the fourth. The touchdown-makers were Bill Stapulis, Fabian Hoffman, Goldberg and Johnny Wood. Frank Souchak added two of the four tries-for-point with placement kicks.

And while their names were on every tongue, there were many others on the field whose part in the triumph was equally potent. Pitt gained an astonishing number of yards against a line that had been successful in turning back Carnegie Tech, Washington University of St. Louis and Wisconsin.

Riding one of the greatest emotional waves in modem football, the Boilermakers recklessly fired their great backs at the Golden line, but the racing offensive that rolled up 117 points in three previous games was hurled back time and again in scoring territory. The Gopher victory, hiked Bernie Bierman's undefeated span to 28 games since the late fall of 1933. Purdue's two slashing backs, Cecil Isbell and Johnny Drake, were constant threats in the first half and turned the first 30 minutes into one of the fiercest offensive battles Minnesota encountered in three years. But in the middle of the first quarter, Minnesota snatched an intercepted forward pass and brought out a string of laterals and running plays that sifted through the Boilermakers for 42 yards and the opening touchdown. Bud W'ilkinson lambled down to Purdue's 42 after intercepting Is-bell's short pass in his own territory.

Julie Alfonse and Andy Uram made first down on the 26 in two plays and Whitman Rork smashed to the 15 over left guard. On the first pray, Uram darted into the line and as a swarm of Boilermakers hit him, he flipped a lateral to Alfonse, who circled toward the opposite sidelines and fell into the end zone for a touchdown. Wilkinson's try for the extra point was wide. After the kickoff. Cecil Isbell led a desperate drive to Minnesota's 40, but Uram again stepped in and intercepted a pass.

He dashed far downfield to Purdue's 30 before hit from behind. Uram whipped around left end for 20 yards, and Bork scored in three bucks at left guard from the 10-yard line. Again Wilkinson place-kicked the point. Before the final period was three minutes old. Bill Matheny added the fourth touchdown with a 36-yard sprint over left guard, and Larry Buhler, sophomore fullback, scored from the four-yard line after a quick 42-yard march following another pass interception.

Faust added the extra point.

Referee Lane. Detroit. Cmpire Anthony Hames. Tale, field Judio conversion by Palau put the Rams ahead and they held their slim advantage through three periods of savage play. The victory over the highly favored Green and Red uniformed play ers from California's Moraga Valley was the fourth straight this, season for Fordham and it kept alive the New York team's hope of playing in the annual East-West tournament of Roses game in Pasadena.

St. Mary's quarterback, 188-pound Lou Ferry of Richmond, kicked a pair of prodigious field goals to open scoring. His first was from the Fordham 24-yard line. The second was completed from the Ram 40, the ball traveling exactly 50 yards. It barely cieared the uprights.

Then Fordham went to work. The Rams took the ball on their cwn 34 on a punt. Halfback Al Gurske started the touchdown drive by picking up two yards. Then Joe Dulkie, on a reverse play, spun through the middle of the Gael line and ran 23 yards down the sideline to the opposition 41. Here Fordham incurred a 15-yard man in motion penalty one of seven the Rams suffered during the entire game.

Undismayed by this setback, Gurske flipped a 30-yard pass to Palau on St. Mary's 41 -yard stripe. The most exciting play of the game followed. Palau passed over the middle ot-the line for five yards to Jacunski v.ho spun around and lateralled the ball to Center Alexander Wojciecho-wicz. Wojciechowicz tucked the ball under his arms and scooted to St.

Mary's 15. On the third down, and with the period almost over, Palau faded back and whipped a pass tp Jacunski. He caught it in the far corner of the field and ran diagonally over the goal. Palau then kicked the extra point. Fordham time and again was stopped by penalties for having a man in motion.

It was one of these penalties which set the stage for Ferry's first field goal. Fordham took the ball on its own 28 on a punt. The Rams were set back 15 yards and then ten more to their own three yard line. Palau punted from behind his goal and Hugh Sill returned 17 to Fordham's 18. St.

Mary's was unable to gain and Ferry kicked a field goal from the 24. Lineups: Position FORDHAM ST. MART'S L.E Paquin Strub L.T. Dunnerlein L.G Marion Kordick Wojciechowicz. Gerard RG Conlee R.T Stanton RE Druze.
