(jP) There was no longer any secret about the potential power of Navy's 1943 football squad today after the midshipmen unveiled four full teams, all scoring combinations, to smother the desperately-trying but ineffective veterans of the North Carolina pre-flight Cloudbusters, 31 to 0. A crowd of 12,500 fans were in Thompson stadium to watch the Middies toy with the once-powerful pre-flighters and coast to a victory that was certain in the opening period.

C4-Yard Drive Ben' Martin and little Hal Ham-berg collaborated in a 64-yard drive for the first touchdown in the first period, with Joe Sullivan diving over from the two. Gus Hampton placekicked the point, the only one all afternoon and the sailors were out in front, 7 to 0.

Bill Crawly and Grady Gay were the spearheads of the next drive, with Gay taking the pigskin from Crawley on the gray-bearded Statue of Liberty play to race the final 15 yards, culminating in a 50-yard march. Bruce Smith made his debut to spark a 93-yard march four minutes later, tossing 15 yards to Charlie Guy for the score, after runs by speedy Jim Pettit and Smith-to-Vic Finos passes had eaten up the distance. Hume Stars Hilles Hume, star of 1942, and Bill Barron took the stage for the fourth score, with Barron circling left end for a touchdown after a 31-yard parade. Smith and Barron were the luminaries in the final 47-yard march. This time Smith lugged the ball to the 21 and Barron sifted through the left side and cut back to the right to cross untouched.

GOPHERS SPILL MISSOURI, 26-13 Two Minnesota Lapses Net Big Six Eleven Both Its Scores MINNEAPOLIS, Sept. 25. (JP) Minnesota inaugurated a new grid rivalry today in auspicious style, troucing the University of Missouri, 26 to 13, in their 1943 opener. The Gophers, presenting a varsity which included six men who had never played a college game, showed a strong running attack and a smart pass defense which gave them a clear edge over the team rated as the standout in the Big Six. While the Minnesota varsity did a creditable job, there was a distinct drop in performance when they went out.

In fact, two lapses by the first string reserves handed the Tigers their two touchdowns. Minnesota's attack was sparked by Red Williams, one of the two holdover backs from last year. Williams showed brilliant running and passing form, reeling off long gains, throwing one touchdown pass, and scoring another himself. He was ably aided by Bill Garnaas, rated last year as one of the stand out quarterbacks of the Big Ten, who scored two touchdowns and kicked two extra points. Don Reece, all-Big Six fullback, spearheaded the Missouri attack on the ground and through the air.

The Bengals out-powerhoused the visitors, who made most of their gains through the air. Steve Van Buren of New Orleans, LSU tailback, plunged and passed the Tigers to the victory.

Van Buren made three plunges for the first score. Near the end of the first quarter Johnny Cook passed to Harris for 10, ran five, heaved again for seven and circled end to tie the score. The rest of the game was a see-saw affair. TULSA ROLLS OVER METHODISTS, 20 TO 7 DALLAS. Texas, Sept.
