Henry Steinreide and Ed Matu-lich sparked a Millsaps drive that begun on their own 25 and ended with a touchdown. Charley Yancey, regular Maroon fullback, who has been on the In-jured list for several weeks saw considerable service In the game and scored the fourth State touchdown In the third period.

Arkansas succeeded in getting it out to the 37, but Ole Miss charged down into scoring position Just be fore the quarter came to a close. Fourth Quarter The Arkansas chocked the wheels of the Rebel machine at the Porker seven yard line and took the ball on downs, but on their first scrimmage attempt, Arkansas fumbled and Co-Captain Wobble Davidson recovered lor Ole Miss on the 8. Yandell and Hovious drove it to the goal's very doorstep, and Hovious took it over for the second touchdown. Acaln it was much too muddy and slippery business to accomplish a place men! kick.

Arkansas received and tried one pass and a line play before punting to set up another exchange. A few plays later with Ole Miss on its own 21, Dobby Yandell took a reverse from Hovious and ran 19 yards for a third Ole Miss touchdown. On the extra point, the pass from center was fumbled and the Rebs had no chance at conversion. Arkansas received and doggedly tried to go forward, and with Ole Miss playing a four-man line at times to defend, against passes, the Porkers succeeded in running for short gains into Mississippi territory Just before the game ended.

Games tied, 2 Rebels Slosh Oyer Arkansas Goal Three Times CRUMP STADIUM, Memphis, Nov. 22 Nine thousand rain drenched fans were rewarded nere today by one of the greatest exhibitions of mud-defying football in Dixie history as the University of Mississippi whipped the terrible weather conditions and the Arkansas Razorbacks 18 to 0 In a most colorful game. The Rebles' leading candidate for Ail-American honors, little Junie Hovious, ran 56-yard for one touchdown, rammed off guard two yards for another and punted a soggy football with magic ability as he led the Rebels to the second-best clean-cut truimph that has been scored over the stubborn Porkers this season.

Only Texas has whipped the Arkansas as bad as the Rebs did today, with the miserable ground conditions and a game-long steady rain as an added obstacle. Ole Miss showed Bobby Yandell as a wingback, replacing the in. Jured Ray Terrell, and the Madison lad ran 79 yards for the third Ole Miss touchdown on a play from scrimmage in the fourth period when the mud was practically knee deep with a heavy layer of casual water on top of that. The Rebels had one drive stopp-ed on the three-yard line as Merle Hapes was knocked out and fumbled the ball. He was removed from the game and did not return.

Hapes was later reported not seriously hurt. First Quarter Arkansas kicked off to Thorsey Who was downed on the Rebel 30 in the muddy going. Failing to gain the Rebs punted and the Porkers punted back on third down, get-ting a 10-yard gain on the first exchange. The process of trading punts was continued as the rain fell harder than the barks were running, and this time Meredith Jones of Arkansas got it down to the Rebel 8. On the subsequent nauc, me forKer punter's effort rolled dead on the Mississippi 3, keeping: the Rebs in hot water, but with Hovious and Hapes courageously kicking out behind a stout protective line.

When Meredith's next boot went into the end-zone, Ole Miss drew a breathing space and from his 20, Hapes boot-edf tr2ngly 11110 Arkansas territory with Thorsey covering a Porker fumble at their 42. They traded punts again, Hovious booting out of bounds at the Arkansas seven to 1ta5e for Worker return boot that Junie snatched at the Arkansa 43 and carried all the way for a touchdown, his try for extra point was missed Just a few plays before the period closed. Second Quarter the drying rain, the punt exchanging was resumed with Ole Miss keeping Arkansas In much the same kind of a hole as the Rebels had suffered in during the first period. With Hapes' pow-crful plunging picking up the yard, age, the Mississippians gathered momentum for a drive that ended with Hapes fumble on the three-yard line as he was knocked out and had to be assisted from the field, not to return during tha game. Arkansas promptly kicked the ball out of danger and a few plays later recovered an Ole Mtss fumble near midfield and the sec-saw punt trades were continued until the half, with Arkansas trying desperately to tie the score on take-a-chance passes.

Third Quarter Ole Miss engineered a first down right after the kickoff before ev-erybody became entirely mud-covered once more, but the offense bogged down Just inside the Arkansas half of the field and Hovious punted over the Porker goal. After a couple of kick exchanges, Arkansas got going and made a SUNDAY BE rTTHTT Trim TTTRn 1 JtlJtLIJK.

Duett took his turn at playing guard and tackle to stop Union's scoring threat through the middle of the Tornado line.

Jack Stribling, end, Jack Harrison, center, and Eakes, tackle, shared honors with Duett in the line while Blount and Hardy stared in the backfield.
