An Enis extra point aerial intended for Harris was Incomplete, and TCU had a 12-7 lead. pass to Cannon at the midfield stripe and tossed another to Mang-ham at the Hardin-Simmons 31. Rabb and Robinson then moved LSU to the 21, where the attack bogged and the Cowboys took over on downs.

Hardin-Simmons moved to the LSU 27 on running plays by quarterback Jim Butler, then completed a pass to Earl Brown at the LSU 3-yard line and the LSU Chinese bandits put up an impressive goal-line stand. Uccellini moved to the 1-yard line, but could go no farther. Butler then fumbled the ball and Hendrix recovered for LSU at the 5-yard line. But the Tigers were forced to kick from their own 9-yard line three plays later. Davis got off a 56-yard kick and Brown returned it to the Hardin-Simmons 45.

The Cowboys went into a new aerial attack after Hart scooted through the LSU line to the LSU 41 in three running plays. Butler tossed three passes to put the Cowboys at the LSU 10-yard line when the third quarter ended. M.

Tech Breezes Past McNeese for 17-0 GSC Victory By JIM DAWSON Times Sports Writer RUSTON, Oct. 4 A rock clever offense sparked by sophomore Jimmy Orton gave Louisiana Tech's Bulldogs an emphatic 17-0 victory over McNeese State College here tonight. first TD, the 'Cats sent Lamar Hebert back to kick the oval through the uprights for one point after their third-quarter score. Northwestern drove over half the length of the field in just two minutes to come within 13-12 in the fading minutes of play, but fullback Charlie (Tank) Tolar slipped on a PAT pitchout attempt and was stopped one yard shy of the line that meant two points and a victory, Louisiana College showed a tough defense in outgaining the Demons 252-225 before a crowd of over 6,000 partisans that required extra seats around the cinder track.

"REGULARS" OUT Northwestern's "Regulars" sat out the first six minutes of play, as Demon reserves and the 'Cats battled it out at mid-field. On the first play after the first-stringers entered the game, disaster struck. Tolar fumbled a Don Scullane punt on the NSC 27, and the alert 'Cats recovered and drove to the 11 on five short gains. Then Keith (Moose) Munyan ripped off the remaining yardage on a scintilatting blast through the middle. Charles Ward's attempted pass for the pat went out of the end zone, and the visitors had a 6-0 lead after ten minutes of play.

Northwestern required just seven plays to erase that deficity. A 21 yard kickoff return by Tolar, then a 19-yard sweep by the "tank" and a sparkling 23-yarder by Conrad set up the TD assault, a 27-yard romp by Tolar in which he ran over five defenders.

Three infantry maneuvers gained only two yards, so McCabe crossed the Cowboys up on fourth down, hitting Hudson in the right corner of the end zone for the score Alexander's conversion boot sailed wide and the Bulldogs nursed a 9-0 intermission edge.

The third quarter produced little excitement except for Howard's booming punts and spirited gallops, McNeese gave the Bulldogs an in tentional safety late in the stanza in an effort to get breathing room for a kick and Tech owned an 11-0 margin going into the final 15 minutes. McNeese was completely out classed in the final period as the Canines ate up the clock gaining back yardage lost on penalties. The Cowboys made only one first down during the last 30 minutes. Tech's last touchdown was set up when Cowpoke rookie quarterback Donald fumbled at his 17 and Campbell claimed it for the Bulldogs. A pass interference penalty moved Tech to the McNeese five and Orton's fourth-down pass to Causey was good for the touchdown.

Causey made a fine catch on one knee. Howard's boot sailed wide but it mattered not. Tech led 17-0 with 23 seconds left and Mr. Aillet was pipe-dreaming over those 100 victories. Friday's Prep Grid Results CITY SCHOOLS BOSSIER 19, BYRD 0.

MerryTtli 33, Grand Lake It was then much too late that the Porkers showed their best sua tained offense of the evening as Cooney passed them down-field to their 39 via two first downs. Then Enis intercepted a Cooney pass to kill the game's last threat. Decision All-America halfback, but the Cardinals ahead before most of the crowd of 21,824 was seated. On Chicago's first play from scrim mage, Crow went 83 yards off left tackle for a touchdown. Later he plunged two yards for another score which was set up by Reynolds' passing.

Conrad, Crow's teammate at Texas A and last year, booted an 18-yard field goal and kicked four extra points. Washington's only touchdown came on an interception midway in the fourth quarter. After one running play, Rudy Bukich tossed a 20-yard touchdown pass to John Carson. The Cardinals wasted no time in retaliation when Ollie Matson took a McHan pass for a touchdown with the play covering 51 yards. The victory gave the Cardinals a 1-1 record for the season.

Quarterbacks Warren Rabb and Purel Matherne and halfback Billy Cannon all managed to get in a score for the Tigers, and fullback Tommy Davis managed two extra-point kicks to give the LSU team its 20 points. Fullback Gene Uccenelli accounted for the only Hardin-Sim-mons score when he crashed over center from the one-yard line early in the second period to climax a 94-yard drive. Max Fugler held the Cowboys to 6 points by blocking Dewey Bohling's attempt to kick the extra point.

His father, the victim of a long illness, had asked that he not miss his scheduled game.

As expected, much of the game was a spectacular aerial battle. Hardin-Simmons completed 19 of 35 pass attempts for 201 yards. The Tigers attempted 14, completed six for an 88-yard gain in the air. Quarterback Jim Tom Butler led the Cowboy passing attack. He completed 8 of 19 tosses for 108 yards.

Harold Stephens had a better completion percentage, however. He hit 11 receivers in 16 attempts for 93 yards. For the Tigers, Rabb completed six of 10 attempts for 88 yards. Matherne tried three tosses, and Johnny Robinson tried one, but neither had a completion. Altogether, Hardin-Simmons had a 428-yard offensive, compared with 292 for LSU.

Cannon, as usual, led the Tiger ground attack. He scrambled for 83 yards in 11 carries for a 7.6 average per try. Matherne averaged 7.7 yards in three carries for 23 yards. The Cowboys leading ground gainer was Pete Hart. The Hardin-Simmons fullback went 83 yards in 15 tries for a 5.5-yard average.

FIRST HALF LSU scored the first two times it got possession of the ball. Rabb scrambled over left tackle to the first touchdown si xminutes and 43 seconds after the game got under way. His score climaxed an even dozen plays, but Davis failed to kick the extra point successfully. Hardin-Simmons cowboys managed to get off only four plays after receiving the initial kick off. Nearl Brown returned Fugler's kick to the five yard line and the Cowboys could move only to the 12 before their punt was forced.

Can- non received it at the LSU 35 yard line to start the Tiger's moving. Starting from their 24 yard line after the first LSU score, Hardin-Simmons lost the ball on Uccellini's fumble at their 43 and LSU guard McCreedy recovered. Purvis quickly moved the Tigers to the Hardin-Simmons 15 on an impressive double reverse from Matherne to Purvis. Four plays later, with five minutes, the second remaining in the first period, Matherne swept around right end to a touchdown. Davis made this kick good and the score was LSU 13, Hardin-Simmons 0.

Hardin-Simmons never gave up ball again until they had a score. Fullback Gene Uccellini 1 dived over the goal from the one yard line to wrap up the only Cowboy score in the first half. Dewey Bohling's attempted kick the extra point was blocked by Tiger center Max Fugler. Baugh's Cowboy crew held firm possession of the BAPL throughout the first half of the second quarter and the score climaxed a 94-yard drive led by Stephens' passes and hard-hitting drives of Ucellini, Joe Allen, and Bohling. There were 6 minutes and 13 seconds remaining when Uccellini made the score.

The Tigers found it hard to move 1 after Johnny Daye took the kick off at the 10 yard line and returned to the 38. Tommy Davis crashed through left guard for a first down at the Tiger 48 yard marker, but LSU hardly moved across the midfield stripe before Davis kicked to the Cowboy 12 yard line. -Hardin-Simmons moved to their 26 yard line on a series of passes from Stephens to Bohling and Benji Lipsey, but were forced to kick after the attack bogged. Fletcher Fields fumbled his pass from center for the kick, however, and was tackled by Charles Strange at the 11. Cannon zig zagged through the Cowboy line for another LSU score with only a minute and 25 seconds in the half.

Davis made good his kick to put the Tigers ahead 20 to 6. Hardin-Simmons got off only four plays after the kickoff before the half ended. Hardin-Simmons monopolized the ball during the third period, but LU's Chinese bandit defensive effort prevented a score. The Tigers started the play when Robinson took the kickoff at the 10-yard line and returned to the 27. 'Running plays moved "the LSU irjiiad to a first down at the 37.

Reynolds, John David Crow and Bohby Joe Conrad three Rookiej from the Deep South took charge like seasoned veterans tonight and sparked the Chicago Cardinals to a 37-19 victory over the Washing ton Redskins. The Redskins, rated strong con tenders for Eastern division title in the National Football League, never could put together a strong threat and had their defenses shattered by the passing of Reynolds.

Formerly of Louisiana State, Reynolds took over from Veteran Lamar McHan late in the second quarter and completed 16 of 25 passes for 228 yards. Two of his shots went for touchdowns. Crow, former Texas A and Texas Aggies Top Missouri COLLEGE STATION, Oct. 4 Mt Gordon LeBoeuf and Charles Milstead led Texas to its first victory of the season here tonight over a hapless Missouri, 12-0. LeBoeuf ahd Milstead shared touchdown honors, however each was scored in an unspectacular fashion.

The alternate Aggie team fumbled, stumbled and seemed to mumble to itself as head coach Jim Myers sent in his top boys to halt three drives by Missouri in the frist half. LeBoeuf culminated first quarter 59-yard drive on the ninth play with a 1-yard plunge over tackle. He did most of the work himself, picking up 41 yards with Milstead carrying twice. Milstead, Myer's No. 1 tailback in the single wing, clicked off 16 yards in the biggest spurt.

His try for extra point was too fat for Missouri's goal posts. Milstead added the Aggies second score as he hit through the line for the final two yards of a 17-yard drive that took seven plays. Missouri's defense seemed to be holding when Milstead came across on the fourth down.

Neither team was able to hit paydirt in the second period, al-through La. College presented a constant threat on the aerial efforts of Sonny Huff and Ward. But their most serious drive was set up by a Demon toss. Scullane picked off a Mickey Mills heave at the Demon 40 and set sail toward the goal with an escort of four blockers.

Mills was the only NSC player with a chance to stop him, and he knifed through for the tackle at the 13. Four plays later the ball went over on downs at the Demon seven yard-line, and Mills killed the remaining 30 seconds with a five-yard sneak. Northwestern grabbed the second-half kickoff and drove 53 yards in seven plays. Aided by a piling-on penalty, the Demons managed a first and goal on the 'Cat six yard line before the La College defenses tightened and spilled Hoff-pauir and Tolar for a total 20-yard loss. That bit of sparkling play must have inspired the visitors, because they then picked up three straight first downs before end Bill Gardner made a beautiful catch of a 28-yard pass from Ward, diving across the double-stripes.

Lamar Hebert's kick gave the 'Gats a 13-6 lead with 4Vi minutes left in the period. A bad pass from center on a fourth-down punt attempt nearly cost the Demons again. Tolar had to run instead of kick, and was spilled on the 16. The orange-clad gridders could go nowhere, however, and NSC was driving as the period ended. The Demons went 62 yards on four plays for their final touchdown, as two straight passes from Hoffpauir to George Smith netted 26 yards and a draw play scaper by Tolar got 25 more.

With 1:40 of play left, Hoffpauir pitched to Jerry Johnston in the end zone to make it 13-12. Hoffpauir's pitchout to Tolar for the pat missed by about a yard, as the hard driving fullback slipped as he made the turn. The Wildcats grabbed an on-side kick and gleefully ran out the clock. Linebacker Bill Pellington pulled off two pass interceptions that gave the Colts the ball on the Chicago 23 and 15, a 12-yard pass from Unitas to end Ray Berry cashed in the first opportunity and Moore went nine yards to climax the other. The scrambling Bears broke through with a 40-yard field goal by George Blanda, but the startling Colts and Moore were far from through.

On the second play after Chicago's kickoff Moore tucked in a 9-yard pass from Unitas on his 32 and in a real fancy-Dan run went all the way down the sidelines through the clutches of Jack Johnson and Chuck Howley. Chicago got its first touchdown with the help of a Colt penalty for roughing passer Ed Brown, which put the ball on the 11. Brown threw over the goal to McColl. Lyles took off on his lightning run with the ensuing kickoff and the Colts claimed he was timed in 10 seconds for the distance, 3 yards short of the NFL record.

and Bill Evans. close while the Porkers were as punch-less as they had been in two previous defeats. But there was considerable doubt in everybody's mind how the game was going, simply because the inspired Razor-backs seized one of their few opportunities to grab a 7-6 lead by halftime and held on like leeches. Time after time the bigger, deep er Christians surged toward pay-dirt and time after time they were stopped by the Hogs or their own miscues. Once a TCU bobble was recovered at the enemy ten, again at the 23.

But quarterback Hunter Enis, relegated to the bench for much of the game because of his short comings, came through with a five- yard touchdown pass to end Justin Rowland just in time to avert dis aster. The first TCU score came in the first quarter after halfback Billy Gault had recovered a fumble on the Arkansas 24, and was scored by Marshall Harris, the hard-run ning halfback from Jacksonville on a two-yard punch. Max Pierce missed the conversion and for most of the contest it looked like a fatal miss. The Pigs heard opportunity knock in the second stanza when center Wayne Harris picked up a fumble by Jack Spikes to set up a threat from the TCU 35. In nine plays they had a score by fullback Don-nie Stone, followed by a Don Hor-ton conversion that upped the count to 7-6 and threw panic into home town hearts.

An indication of the game's tenor may be had from the rushing statistics, which give TCU 233 yards to Arkansas' 78, and the first down figures, which give the Frogs a 13-5 advantage. The Porkers had a slight 44-35 advantage overhead, but most of it was picked up on a last-minute desperation drive that never got closer than the foe 39. TCU fullbacks lugged leather on 36 of the team's 59 rushes. Hard-galloping Jack Spikes went for 110 in 19 charges and stand-m Merlin Priddy made 69 in 17. Stone was the best of rather poor lot for the losing side, with 21 yards in eight tries.

The first period was about one- third gone when the first major break of the contest sent TCU off on a scoring gambit. Spikes shook Arkansas's Stone loose from the ball on a tour of left end and Billy Gault covered it on the Pigs' 24. Spikes pounded out 17 of the in tervening yards to the two, from where Harris hauled it through left tackle for a touch. Larry Terrell's placekick went sour, but the Frogs owned a 6-0 lead with 6:29 elapsed. The remainder of the first quarter away in inconclusive scrambling, with the Razorbacks making no offensive gesture, the Frogs making few.

The next break came after an Arkansas quick-kick and a personal foul penalty had set the Froggies back to their 30 several plays into the second stanza. Spikes knifed off the right side for a substantial gain, only to cough the ball up to Arkansas pivotman Wayne Harris on the TCU 35. It required nine plays to take it in. Two 11-yard aerials from Monroe to end Richard Bell worked 'er to the eight and fullback Stone took over, pounding the remaining distance in four plays to even the tally. Don Horton quickly untied it with a perfect placement.

And Arkansas had its first lead of the season, 7-6. There it still stood at the half. The third quarter was one long sequence of Frog backs huffing and puffing upfield but putting nothing on the score-board. Once they penetrated as deep as the ten before Spikes kicked the football with his knee while taking a handoff and Razorback guard Jerry Green recovered on the spot. The Porks scored just as much while running only three scrimmage plays in the entire period.

Just into the final quarter TCU seemed to be on the move again, but this time fullback Merlin Priddy fumbled and Monroe got it for Arkansas at the 23. An exchange of punts ended in one by the Christians' Jimmy Gilmore that flopped dead on the Arkansas one. Cooney and Harry Moreland hauled it back to the 20 and another threat was on. But it died early and Spikes attempted a field-goal from the 21 that went 'way ide and short. The Pigs got it on their 20 and disaster was averted again.

But only for the time being. The next Arkansas punt was returned to the Pigs' 47 by Moreland and on the following play Spikes broke up the middle, cut to the left and raced 39 yards to the eight befort being batted out of bounds. A jam-packed audience of 8.000 persons watched the 1958 Bulldogs chalk up the 100th victory in Coach Joe Aillet's illustrious career, and the triumph was achieved just as so many other Aillet triumphs has been with a titanic defense and a yard-munching, time-consuming attack. The victory also came in a crucial Gulf States conference game and gave Tech a 2-1 record for the season. season.

McNeese suffered its second setback in four outings and watched its GSC mark fall to 1-1. This was the Bulldogs' conference opener. Aillet now has a 100-56-8 record at Tech. The game actually wasn't as close as the score indicates. The Canines crunched out 20 first downs THE YARDSTICK Tech.

McNeese gave the Bulldogs an unimportant safety in the third quarter before succumbing to another Tech six-pointer in the closing minute. Orton passed to Tom Causey for the last one. That fabulous Bulldog line ends Charles Garris and Hudson, tackles Bobby Hinton and Red Deloney, guards Al Stough and Doyan Foster and Pivot Buck Stewart defied description tonight. Orton moved the Canines superbly and McCabe also proved Howard, both sophomore halfbacks from Sulphur, were bruising runners, as was fullback Jerry Fra-sier.

Hynes gained 72 yards in 13 carries, Howard 64 in 14. And Howard booted three times for a 46.3 yard average. Fullback Bobby Magee was the "hoss" for McNeese, amassing 31 stripes on 10 lunches. Quarterback Sam Stribling played well, too. but the Tech forwards spent most of the evening harrassing him.

The Lake Charles Cowpokes had slightly the better of things during the first quarter, mounting a serious threat when end Bennie Hawkins raced into block Hynes' punt. Guard Johnny Fuller of McNeese pounced on the loose oval at the Tech 23. Stribling guided his team to the Bulldog three before Aillet's Meat-grinder defensive Wall held for downs. Orton, running the option to per fection and sending Hynes wide at the most opportune moments, sparked a 94-yard Bulldog drive which consumed four minutes of the first chapter and 7:30 of the second period. McNeese's forwards finally checked the Canine thrust at the Cowboy four, but Alexander kicked Tech into a 3-0 lead banging in a 10-yard field goal from a difficult angle to the right of the uprights.

McCabe, the Minden senior, led a 59-yard Bulldog drive which paid off with six points 50 seconds before halftime. McCabe passed brilliantly during the thrust, hitting Hudson twice for important yardage. The setup play, though, came on a 27-yard toss to Hynes. who BALTIMORE, Oct. 4 (in The Baltimore Colts knocked the previously undefeated Chicago Bears back on their heels with three touchdowns in the first six minutes and went on to win a hair-raising 51-38 decision tonight before the biggest professional sports crowd in rebuilt Memorial Stadium.

The first sellout crowd of 52,622 since the stadium was done over in 1953 hardly had a minute to catch its breath in the National Football League contest. Their favorites ran up a 27-3 lead in the first quarter with halfback Lenny Moore going for three of the touchdowns and adding another in the last quarter for the second Colt triumph without defeat. Their No. 1 draft "choice, Leonard Lyles from Louisville University, returned a kickoff 103 yards for a touchdown and Willie Gali-more of the Bears went 99 yards for another one. The Bears, taking their first licking after six exhibitions and the league opener, didn't roll over and play dead, despite the first-quarter outburst and a 34-10 deficit at halftime.

They moved swiftly to two touchdowns with only 14 plays at the start of the third quarter to trail by 34-24. A pass interception by Ray Brown put the Colts back in business on the Chicago 10, however, and they scored on a 2-yard pass from quarterback John Unitas to end Jim Mutscheller to pull away 41-24. Galimore tossed in his all-the-way kickoff return at that point to leave the Bears trailing by 10 points going into the last 15 minutes. The Colts picked up 10 more points on Moore's last touchdown, a 33-yard scoring pass play from Unitas and a 28-yard field goal by Steve Myhra. The Bears wound up with a no-difference touchdown on a 20-yard pass from Zeke Bratkowski by end Bill McColl, the second caught by the flankman.

The Colts tore into the Bears as they were going to eat them up, reeling off three touchdowns with breath-taking speed. One the first play after the kickoff, Chicago rookie Erich Barnes from Purdue was for interferring with Moore who was trying to catch a pass on the Bear 40. Three plays later Moore wheeled 28 yards for a touchdown. ROSENBLATHS When You Want the Finest.
