In the afternoon he had been one of 63,000 that braved a chill, austere day to watch the University of Pennsylvania knock Columbia University out of the Nation's dwindling list of unbeaten teams, 32-7.

I. 32 F'arrnjiut Continued on Page 4, Column 1 PENN'S DON SCHNEIDER STOPPED IN THIRD PERIOD There's no gain as Columbia's Len Will makes tackle. Penn won, 32-7. 1 Yield State Drubs Temple, 27-0 Hard Charging Line Ends Owls' Dream Of Unbeaten Season By STAN BAUMGARTNER Inquirer Sports Reporter STATE COLLEGE, Nov. 10.

The silver lining on Temple University's victory cup was stripped down to the pewter base today in the acid bath churned up by the overwhelming Penn State College line. What figured to be one of the Nation's top competitive football games, although the Owls were the underdogs, became a runaway 27-0 Penn State victory. Its fifth in six starts. Temple had come here with six triumphs in as many games and while there had been no official statement, the players were bowl conscious. With this numbing setback, its third in as many years by Penn State (13-0 in 1943 and 7-6 in 1944) went all prospects of a bowl invitation.

Completely outclassed by a line that towered over every Temple man except Mike Jarmoluk by 2 to 3 inches and outweighed every man at least 10 pounds, the Owls were soaked in a shower of touchdowns that matched the rain drops drenching the throng of 16,000. largest crowd ever to see a game on Beaver Field." GAIN QUICK TALLY The vast multitude was still filling the remote corners of the stands when Bronco Kosanovich, 6-foot-2-inch, 195-pound center "from Ali-quippa, took a neat lateral pass from Joe Tepsic on the Owl 13-yard line and galloped over for the first Penn State score. With the Ice broken and the myth of Temple's Invincibility split into atoms the Center Countians marched to two more six-pointers in the second quarter to take a 20-0 lead at halftime. Using an eleven which was made up of many reserves and handicapped by many penalties the Penn Staters added only one touchdown (by the recovery of a Temple fumble in the end zone), in the third period to lead 27-0. And in the fourth quarter with third stringers in action, the game resolved itself in a scoreless tug -of -war that saved "face" for the outclassed Philadelphia's.

ONLY 2 OWL THREATS The Owls made only two real threats to score. In the first minute of the game a long forward pass by Jack Burns bounced off the hands of Joe Tepsic, State's powerful back, into the paws of Bob Elliott, Owl end Continued on Page 3, Column Brown Jars Yale, 20-7 By LOU BLACK NEW HAVEN, Nov. 10 (A. A Brown University football team that hardly anybody figured had even a picayune chance to lick Yale University outplayed the Blue today to win, 20-7, in the Golden Anniversary fracas between these Ivy League rivals as 15,000 fans looked on in bewilderment. The Bruins, playing hard, smart football, were by far the better club as they thwarted Yale's bid to become the Nation's first winner of SCO intercollegiate football contests.

Aided by his highly reputed line. Art Dakos, on a quarterback sneak, tallied from the half-foot-mark for Yale's only touchdown shortly after the second quarter opened. Val Wil-kie added the extra point. Not daunted. Brown went 66 yaids with Hi Finn tossing five yards to Tom Kavazanjian for the scoie.

Shortly after holding Yale on its one-yard line in the third, Brown's Bob Mesch pitched a 34-yard piss to Continued on Page 2, Column 2 Detroit Wins, ZU-U, Over Cincinnati DETROIT. Nov. 10 (A. After being held in check for two quarters, the University of Detroit's football team came back to whip the University of Cincinnati 20-0 today for its fourth victory of the season. Detroit took to the air to put the ball in position for its first score, and passes accounted directly for the other two touchdowns.

lum Garden aDcde fg -J 1 tSf Villanova Jars Boston, 41-0 By JOE McNLLTY Profiting richly on miscues with keen alertness and blazing speed, Villanova College's football team closed ita 47th season of intercollegiate competition last night by overpowering Boston College, 41-0, to the delight of a small but hardy band of 4000 fans huddled in tingling fall weather at Shibe Park. Most convincing triumph of the campaign, it was also a decisive exhibition as the Cats hit a season's high for scoring and finished their schedule with four victories and four losses. The Cats struggled around for a portion of the first period, suddenly hit their stride and eight minutes and 34 seconds after the kickoff were on the way to the first of six touchdowns and five extra points. DOHERTY TALLIES FIRST Bill Doherty was the first to crass Boston College's goal, returning an intercepted pass 30 yards. After that excellent sprint, the touchdowns flowed fairly freely as Villanova converted four fumbles into tallies and also travelled 57 yards for another score.

Dave Generalli, Vincent McPeak, Len Makowski and Carl Ungaro followed Doherty to the scoring station. FUMBLES HELP SCORING Generalli crossed the scoring stripe at 5.39 and McPeak at 6.50 of the third period on searing bursts from inside the eight after the Cats had nabbed fumbles. Another mis-cue put Villanova in position to send Makowski over a 2.53 of the fourth quarter and Ungaro capped a 57-yard march by scoring at 11.4Tof the final period. Then came another fumble, another Villanova recovery, and Doherty went over at 14.44. Villanova had little trouble handling Boston College's big backs and the only time BC operated in Villanova territory was in the second Continued on Pajce 5, Column 5 Lena's 15tli Pup To Aid ISoncl Drive One of the famous litter of 23 foxhound pups born to the famous Lena will be auctioned for War Bonds, in the Victory Loan Drive at the Kennel Club of Philadelphia's 51st dog show in Convention Hall, Saturday.

The pup will be the 15th to go on sale In the War Bond campaigns. His predecessors brought over $10,000,000 in bonds. The owner of the noted mater. Commander W. Newhold Ely, U.

S. M. C. of Ambler, donated the pup which was born in June, 1944. Of the original 23, one died last February, 14 were auctioned off in various cities in previous War Loans, and the remaining seven are being kept by Commander Ely.

-i. s. traveled 62 yards with the, opening kickoff to build a 7-0 advantage. Penn retaliated with just 16 seconds of the first quarter but missed the point, and Columbia still led, 7-6. Not until the fourth play of the second quarter did Penn take command; then, thanks to a blocked kick, the Red and Blue fell into possession on Columbia's 25-yard line.

EVANS PASSES DECISIVE Another pass, and Penn scored, place-kicked the extra-point, and from there unto the finish, there was no question as to the outcome. Penn had found itself. Bob Evans, winner of the Distinguished Flying Cross for 33 missions as a waist-gunner over Europe, was a veritable William Tell of archers. He passed Penn to four touchdowns. Nineteen-year-old Frank Jenkins, a Naval R.

O. T. C. trainee from Germantown, was a veritable Don Hutson of ends, crossing over to spear three of Evans' passes for touchdowns. And 252-pound George Savitsky, the tackle, formed with Guard Joe Dickerson a line bulwark that Columbia could neither penetrate nor stop.

The Lions wound up the first half with a rushing total of minus eight yards and could net only 14 for the entire game. PENN SUPERIOR LITTLE "It was not one of our best games," sighed Coach Lou Little, Perm alumnus whose Columbia team had rolled to six consecutive victories. "I think our boys could have played better. But there was not question about which side deserved to win. Penn was the superior team." Yet at the outset the facts seemed Just contrary-wise.

Columbia, operating from wing-T formations, took Evans' opening kickoff and went 62 yards on 10 plays for a touchdown. The Morningside Heights collegians could not pierce the Red and Blue line, but in the air they were irresistible. Gene Rossides. the 17-year-old boy who plays halfback, was receiving direct passes from center and, in turn, pitching the ball to Ends Emil Ladyko, Les Thompson and Fullback Lou Kusserow, another 17-year-old. LIONS SCORE ON AERIAL The Lions marched to Penn's 7-yard line in this manner, and there Rossides, the 170-pound Greek, tossed a lateral pass to Kusserow, who ran down the south sideline and ducked by Don Schneider as he crossed.

Len Will, a 27-year-old former G. place-kicked the extra point, and after exactly five and a half minutes of play. Columbia led, 7-0. Of Columbia's 10 plays, six were passes and all bull's-eyes, by Rossides. Sixty-three thousand football fans were amazed, and Penn diehards resigned themselves to the worst.

The-ease with which Columbia had scored looked dire, indeed. SAVITSKY CHARGES that was before Mr. Savitsky had been heard from. The Quakers had their huge tackle playing end on defense Jenkins moving into the tackle's slot and the comparatively minuscule Rossides, serving as blocker on punt formation, could not hold the burly ex-Marine out of the Columbia backfield. Savitsky was charging in like a block-buster, and Continued on Page 3, Column 3 Kentucky Drubs West Virginia, 19-6 MORGANTOWN, W.

Indiana University handed the University of Minnesota a 49-0 beating today, the worst in the Gophers' history, and assured itself of at least a tie for the Big Ten football championship. Indiana pushed Minnesota all over the field and scored In all PHILADELPHIA.

RoyH-s Spearheaded once again Stunning 76,000 with the ferocity and power of their at tack, the Cadets roared to their 16th straight victory since losing to the U. S. Naval Academy, 13-0, in 1943 by blasting a Notre Dame club which had not tasted defeat this season and which had battled Navy, to a 6-6 deadlock. NO MATCH FOR ARMY But this Notre Dame team, despite Its spirit and Its willing ness, was no match for the great est college football team of 1945. They gave it a valiant try as they held the West Pointers, who meet the University of Pennsylvania at Philadelphia next Saturday, to seven points in the first period and then saw their hopes ground to dust under the flashing "cleats of Davis, Claremont, express, and the bull-like thrusts or the battering Blanchard.

For as two burry lines slugged It out toe-to-toe, Davis skittered through holes and past the secondary like a will o' the wisp for three touchdowns and the bone-breaking Blanchard tallied twice to snow the Irish under to the point where the Continued on Page 2, Column 4 Tennessee, Georgia Win Bp Associated Press University of Tennessee's once-beaten and bowl-conscious football machine rolled to a 34-0 victory over hapless University of Mississippi in Memphis yesterday on a busy Southeastern Conference afternoon which also found the Georgia School of Technology manhandling a bungling Tulane University eleven, 41-7, at New Orleans and the powerful University of Georgia Bulldogs outclassing University of Florida, 34-0, at Jacksonville. In a nip-and-tuck night contest at Baton Rouge, favored Louisiana State University was upset, 27-20, by Mississippi State College. With only five minutes remaining, the score was 20-20 but the Missis-slppians short-circuited a Bengal pass and converted it into the winning touchdown. With the Rose Bowl veterans playing only a small portion of the game and the quarters mercifully shortened, Tennessee thalked up its sixth conquest by sesttling the issue early. After a blocked punt on the Ole Miss 14, Buster Stephens smashed 10 yards to score.

Two minutes later Casey Stephenson tallied on a 38-yard sprint and Stephens immedi-atley improved on that by rambling 52.

Nov. 10 (A. The U. S. Naval Academy's remarkable opportunists answered some of their critics today by crushing the University of Michigan's spirited Wolverines, 33-7, before 59,114.

Thus the Middies surpassed mighty Army's 28-7 victory over Michigan by a margin of five points. Again the Middies capitalized on the opposition's mistakes, but there was nothing indecisive in the way they went after scores on almost every opportunity. Still alertly hawking the ball, as thev have all season, the Middies went on their scoring sprees after picking up a wild Michigan lateral, blocking one punt, causing another to be kicked only eight yards, intercepting a pass and picking up a fumble. MIDDIES BREAK LOOSE For a half, Michigan made a close game of it, holding Navy to a 13-7 advantage, but the Middies broke things wide open in the third period by scoring twice in the last three minutes. A mistake by Michigan put the Middies in position to home well along in the opening period.

Henry Fonde made a wild pitch to Pete Elliott on an attempted lateral on Michigan's 21 and Navy's Dick Duden touched the ball Just before it went out of bounds.

BEAVERS RALLV Six minutes short of game's end Washington held a 6-0 lead and it looked like enough to win. But the eager Beavers, spurred by 17-year-old Dick Gray, unleashed a sustained scoring drive of 69 yards.

Gray, operating in heavy mud, passed and ran the entire route and Stan Mc-Guire, substitute end, kicked the point.

Bob Miller, Pete Pihos, Dick Daranek and Tom Schwartz made one touchdown eacTi. Charles Armstrong, reserve tackle, booted seven consecutive points after touchdown from placement. Taliaferro's swivel hips threw Minnesota off stride when he dodged and ducked through the startled Gopher team for a 92-yard run on the opening kickoff.

Indiana lost its scoring chance, however, when Taliaferro fumbled on the next play. MAKES UP FOR FUMBLE He got his chance later In the period, though, when Indiana won the ball on a freak bounce after a punt. The ball was on Minnesota's 20 and three line plays advanced it to the 11. Taliaferro hooked a lateral and made the first Hoosier touchdown. Indiana exploded for four touchdowns in the second period, two of them by Taliaferro.

He made the first on a 23-yard run behind per fect blocking and his second on a spectacular 78-yard run back of an intercepted pass. Substitute Halfback Miller made a 63-yard run through the demoralized Minnesota team for Indiana's fourth touchdown, and Pihos made the fifth on a line buck from the one-foot line.
