TIGERS ALWAYS DANGEROUS Yet the Tigers, fighting furiously through the media of shifting, looping defenses and varying single-wing offensive formations, showed how lightning might have struck a second time. The Quakers never could afford to relax without chancing the danger of an upset such as the 17-14 score by which they were beaten last year.

Penn led from the start, and stayed in front by virtue of two scor-i ing drives of 47 yards and one of 91, but only a little more than two min- utes after Minisi 's second touchdown the result of a six yard sprint around end had increased their (deficit to 0-13, the Tigers lashed back.

Minisi went over on a four-yard slash after 8 minutes, 51 seconds of the first quarter on the seventh play of the 47-yard drive, and only 2:15 of the second period had elapsed when he strode a yard for his second six-pointer. But both other Penn touchdowns came so late In their respective cantos that Princeton had no time to retaliate. Thus, only 16 seconds remained in the first half when Luongo bulled a yard on the ninth play of the 91-yard advance, and just 19 seconds when Minisi swept five yards around Princeton's right end Just after Chuck Bednarlk had intercepted a pass.

Nov. 1. The University of Virginia lowered its sights long enough from the elevation into the future toward the University of Pennsylvania to hand the University of Richmond a 34-0 thumping today and qualify for its "Battle of the Unbeaten" with the Quakers on Philadelphia's Franklin Field next Saturday. The clever Cavaliers, exploit ing the miscues of the visitors with a slick series of play, ramped over the sod of sunken Scott Stadium and passed through the cool, cloudy air touchdowns in every period as a sub par crowd of 12.000 looked on.

Slow in reaching their full power, the ARgies led by 6-0 at the end of the first half, but gathered strength to roll on through the final 30 minutes for three more six-pointers, and turned an expected close battle into a rout. SCORING FLAY RECALLED Temple made only one bid for a victory.

They scored a touchdown midway through the first quarter when Phil Slosburg hurled a pretty 12-yard pass to Joe Lee over the Cowpokes' goal to climax a 37-yard advance. But the play was recalled and the Owls penalized 15 yards lor holding. This was the last time that the Cherry and White threatened the visitors goal. It was the first meeting between the two schools in football, although they have faced each other on the basketball court for the past 10 years. It was the visitors' third victory.

OWLS OUTGAMEI) The Aggies dominated in first downs, 16 to 11; yards gained rushing, 284 to 184; total net yards, 447 to 229. and displayed hard and more fundamental football. The Owls played their jmorest game this season. They blocked and tackled as if personal contact was a foul Only Phil Slosburg maintained his high average.

The standard-bearer of the Owls ran for 93 yards, passed for 58 and returned kicks for 57 more for a total of 208 offensive yards, raising his total for the season to 915. The Oklahomans. however, matched Slosburg with three gilt-edged runners of their own, Jim Spavital, Ben Aldridge and Ken Roof and an ace place-kicker as forward-passer in Jack Hartman. CLIMAXES 77-VI. MARCH Spavital scored the first two Aggies' touchdowns; the first on a one-foot run around right end after 13 minutes of the second quarter to climax a 77-yard march, and the second midway in the third period on a 17-yard dash around the same right end after big tackle Joe Spencer, of the Aggies, had recovered a fumble by Gene Zawolski at that spot.

Ben Aldridge tallied the third Oklahoma six-pointer after 13 min- utes of the third period when he whizzed through center for 15 yards to round out a 57-yard drive.

In the third quarter, a Tex Furse to John Setcar pass climaxed a 70-yard drive and Booe's placement, appeared to apply the knockout blows to the Indians.
