Although they took command at the outset and never, were seriously threatened, the sooners lacked the explosiveness of their 1049 predecessors who ranked second only to Notre Dame in the AP national poll. But they satisfied 33,000 partisan fans by exhibiting a couple of promising holdover halfbacks in Buddy Jones and Tommy Gray and a line that refused to give ground except in inconsequental chunks. For Coach-Denny Meyers, it was only the second shutout in his ten years at Boston college. The first cAme last year when Oklahoma triumphed 46-0 in the season opener at Boston. Oklahoma marched 53 and 41 yards for touchdowns in the first and second periods, then struck air for a third counter before calling it a day by cashing in on a third period Boston fumble.

DickHeatley, a junior halfback, scored the first touchdown when the game was only six minutes and ten seconds old. It came on a two at the end bf a drive that required only seven plays the first tinio the Sooners got their hands on the ball. Jones, a senior who operated exclusively on defense tho past two seasons, tallied the second touchdown from a yard out just 12 seconds before half time. MISSOURI BLANKED COLUMBIA, Mo. Clemson Rot a perfect start with an 80-yard touchdown run on the first scrimmage play Saturday and continued its mastery of Missouri with a 34 to 0 drubbing.

Lithe Jackie Calvert slanted off his own right tackle and behind perfectly-executed blocking went all the way as 25,000 partisan fans gasped. Charlie Radcliff kicked the extra point and it was 7 to 0 with only 20 seconds played. That was only the beginning, however. Clemson demonstrated complete superiority over the inept Big Seven team, which had been rated a 13-point favorite. Clemson simply was a better club tackling nnd blocking thwarting the 5-1'ormation plays oj Don Fatirot.

In winning, the southerners gave Missouri its first whitewash since 1946 when Southern Me dist turned the trick. The Tipcrs had not been blanked in 35 straight, games. If also was Clemson's second triumph. 1-StATE BEATEN EVANSTON, 111.. western, an unknown quantity in tho Western conference football championship race, defeated Iowa State 23 to 13 Saturday in its 1950 debut before 41,000 fans at Dyche stadium.

After being held to a 7-7 dead lock through the first two peri ods, Northwestern assumed control of the game in the second half with superior line play, a stronger running attack and some surprisingly accurate passing by QuarterbackfcDick Flowers. The Wildcats were first to score. Just four minutes after the game started, they marched 66 yards, with Athnn going over Irom the one-yard line. Bob Burson converted, as he did after' NU's succeeding TDs. Midway in the final period the cyclones started a drive that lod to a touchdown, with Weeks passing to Moling for the score.

K-STATE LOSES BOULDER, Colo. Handcuf' fed by fumbles in the first half Colorado broke away in the third and fourth periods Saturday swamp Kansas State, 34 to 6. Four times the home club losl the ball on fumbles in the first half. One of these Kansas State turned into its only score. The fumble balance swung the othei way in the second half.

Veteran Menvin Hodel and Sophomore Zack Jordan paced the Buffaloes to a convincing, victory. A near-capacity crowd of 19,425 saw Colorado even its Big Seven slate to date with one win against one loss. Kansas State scored first with four minutes remaining in the first half. Roger Williams fumbled, attempted to lateral and bounced the ball off Referee Bob Miller. Charles Thornborrow recovered for the Wildcats on the Colorado 15.

Faubion punched a yard for the touchdown on the fourth play.

A 26-yard touchdown pass with only 2:20 minutes left, from heroic Bob Williams to End Jim Muts- cheler. a combination that accounted for both Irish scores, uro- duced Notre Dame's 39th straight game without defeat. A capacity crowd of 56,430 saw Notre Dame confidently caoitalize on two North Carolina fumbles for a 7-0 lead in the first lour minutes of the game and then fight with its back to the wall the rest of the way. The Tar Heels, led by 163- pound halfback Dick Bunting, who almost matched Williams' as the day's individual slashed 78 vards for a fourth period touchdown by Sophomore Bud Wallace that tied the score at 7-7. Then came the closing desoer- ation drive of Notre Dame covered 66 yards and was canped by Williams decisive heave down the middle to Mutscheller.

North Carolina, a 13-7 winner over North Carolina State last week, played like a high school tepm in the ooening minutes. Tom Higpins fumbled Notre Dame's opening kickoff. A few 7airbury Freshmen Bounce Beatrice 14-0 Fairbury's freshman football squad defeated the Orange and Black frosh 14-0 in Athletic park Saturday morning. The visitors scored their touchdowns in the second and third quarters. The fii-st came on a line plunge from the eight-yard line.

An extra point was added on an off-tackle play. The second touchdown was the result of a 45-yard run. A pass was good for the extra point. Freshman Coach Wayne Keading used 30 men in the game. The starting lineup: Don Kleman and Jim Hille, ends; Delmis Buckholtz and Roger Morris, tackles; Joe Staehs, center; Bill Cook, Marvin Pethoud, Jerry Sand, and John Beckwith.

Next game for the Beatrice freshman squad is tomorrow night when they meet the Wilber frosh in Athletic park at 7:30. Score by periods: Fairbury 0 7 Beatrice 000 0 minutes later Wallace fumbled and Mutscheller recovered on North Carolina's 10. Three plays later with the ball on the three, Williams stepped back and fired a' short pass to Mutschcllor in the end zone for a touchdown. Joe Caprara added the point for a 7-0 Irish lead. Washington Hits Gophers Minesotct Soundly Beaten 28-13 As Huskies Triumph SEATTLE, University of Washington flicked a 200-pound rapier named hurrin' Hugh McElhenny at the University of Minnesota Saturday and punctured a seven-game jinx with a 28-13 football triumph.

A record crowd of 49,500 was groggy with joy over a victory they had waited 14 years to witness. Washington had never won in the long series starting in 1936. McElhenny returned Minnesota's first punt 19 yards to set his- style. In a dozen plays around, over and through the burly Gopher line, Washington's Huskies to a touchdown and the lead they nevAr gave up, Trailing 0-7, Minnesota came grinding back from its own 20 to the Washington 17. But Washington's defensive line held.

The young Washington defenders sopped up every Minesota threat in that first half. Washington drove 85 yards to count again before the half ended. Each team scored once in the third period and once in the 'fourth. A roughness penalty helped helped Washington by penalizing Minnesota four yards to its own one. from where Quarterback Don Heinrich sneaked over with the second tally.

The Gophers got a king-sized break early in the third period when Bob Thomson intercepted McEIhenny's running pass on the Washington 35. One thrust fizzled on the Washington 8 but Minnesota came pounding back after the Washington punt with Gary Johnson doing most of the work. Called on to lug the ball on the fourth down with four yards needed, Johnson went 14 for the lirst Minnesota score.

The Dodger "miracle finish" thus carries into the last day of tho season when they -again face the weary and wobbly Phils in the pennant game. Must Win Today By blowing all but ono game of a solid 7V4 gamo lead they held as late as Sept. 21, the Phils now must take today's game to clinch that elusive pennant. If Brooklyn wins the two teams will be tied, forcing a post-season playoff. The Dodgers have won 13 of iheir last, 16 games and the Phils have lost eight of their last ten.

Robin Roberts (19-11) will pitch for the Phils against big 'Don Newcombe (19-10) in a clash of two pitching aces. If the Phils lose this one, the big one, they may go into the record books as the worst collapse In baseball history. Their blind staggers already rival those of the 1934 Giants, 1921 and 1938 Pirates and 1942 Dodgers. In case it winds up in a tie. President Ford Frick announced Saturday a best-o'-three playoff for the championship starts at Brooklyn Monday afternoon.

The second game would be played at Philadelphia Tuesday afternoon and also a third there if necessary. The site was determined by the flip of a coin. Wliios Them Again Erv Paiica, a two-hit shutout winner over the Phils' whizless whiz kids last Sunday, whipped them again thishazzy Indian summer afternoon. Two big homeruns by Snider and Campanella, both off Jim Konstanty, making his 74th' relief appearance, sent the Phils reeling into' their clubhouse to dream nightmares of vanishing world series checks. Snider's long drive over the right field wall with Pee Wee Reese on base doomed Kontsanty, who had just come tothe rescue ot starter Bob Miller.

The Brooks opened up on Miller after scoreless innings to score two runs on singles by Billy Cox and Gal Abrams and Reese's towering 400- 'oot triple ic, the center field exit gate. Then in the eighth, after the Phils scrambled back with three in the sixth, Campanella unloaded a tremendous 400-foot poke into the center field stands with two men on base. That did it. Instead of a one-run deficit, the Phils trailed by three coming up into the ninth. They succumbed, one- two-three with Paiica striking out Stan Lopata 'to end the game.

Wild Reaction You might have thought the Dodgers had won the pennant from the wild reaction of the below-capacity crowd of 23,879. While the Nationals still were scrapping among themselves, the relaxed Yankees, who clinched the American league flag Friday, scored a meaningless 6-5 victory over the Red Sox in Boston. In Detroit the Detroit Tigers clinched second place in the American league by coming from behind to defeat the Cleveland In- dians 3-1 here. Hal Newhouser hurled seven-hit ball to win his 15th. Tho Tigers broke a 1-1 tin In the eighth when third baseman George Kell ramhned a two-run double to right center.

The Tiger win ended Cleveland's eight game winning streak and ended the Indians' hopes of tying Boston for third place. NATIONAL LEAGUE Pet. G.B.
