Upset people, that is. For seldom in any one period of a month and a half have so many people been so upset by goings-on in the sports world. Most of the people were upset over lootDau 01 ficiatine. but the officials aren't the only ones and things that have caused a flood of acrimonious statements to flow Burton will be all out to either stop Robinson or draw with him so he will be in a position to demand a title bout.

12 (Special). Protecting a 20-point lead at the half, the Louisiana Tech Bulldogs scored a 34-13 victory over the highly touted Mississippi Southern squad from Hattiesburg here Saturday night to claim the football championship of the Gulf States conference. The triumph was Tech's fifth straight In the league this fall. While the Mississippi Southerners suffered defeat, they had the pleasure of seeing one of their boys soar to national distinction when their Cliff Coggin piled up 173 yards by pass reception, which, added to his 757 yards, when the game began with Tech, gave him a national record-breaking total of 930 yards. cold north wind blew across the field which was rendered soggy by rains early in the morning.

The sudden drop in temperature was through to have cut the attendance. Blast Mondav. Oct. 3. signaled the start of the verbal war.

Frank Leahy, coach of Notre Dame, blasted the officials that day. Dutch Meyer, coach of Texas Christian university, blasted "rough" tactics and the Brad Rowland, coach of George Washington university, blasted the officials that way. vhtt wnmn THTNTf THAT that would have been enough blasting to last a month, but instead of sufficing for a 30-day period, it merely seemed to light the fuse for a volley ot criticism or one tning ngnt up to tne present time. Most of the criticism has come from coaches who were upset on the gridiron. But in that respect, Leahy is unique.

He leveled off at the officials after his team had defeated the University of Washington Huskies, ww mm-w At 1 1 199 tie cnargea vvasnmgion wun an unuernauucu trick in showing movies of the '48 Washington-Notre Dame game to the '49 officials, and pointing out certain aspects of the Irish style of play that the Huskies felt were infractions of the rules. The Irish were penalized heavily in the Husky game and Leahy laid the blame to a "supercritical" attitude the officials carried into the game. The movies, it was implied, created the "supercritical" attitude. Meyer, the Horned Frogs coach, claimed that Arkansas used "rough" tactics in its game witn TUU ana mat lax officials were responsible for numerous injuries his team received. Rowland protested that the officials had deprived George Washington of a fourth down in the game with Virginia Military institute.

A FEW WEEKS AFTER THE Leahy-Meyer-Rowland salvo, losing coaches again accused the officials of causing their teams' defeats. Paul "Bear" Bryant, of the University of Kentucky, really teed off on the officiating in the Kentucky-Southern Methodist game, won by the Mustangs, 20-7. Bryant was followed to the rostrum by a fellow-Southeastern conference mentor, Johnny Vaught, of Ole Miss. He was bitter about his team's 33-27 loss to the TCU although the crowd, at that, probably reached a record breaking 6,000 fans. Harrison, bull-dog half back, took Southerns opening kickoff behind his goal line and raced to the Tech 45, where he slipped and fell, with an open field In front of him.

At that point, Harrison connected a pass to Joe Strother, who caught the ball but fumbled it and MSC recovered. The bull-dog line tightened against the visitors offensive moves and Southern was forced to punt to about mid-field. Harrison, on two running plays, took the Bulldogs to the 10 yard line. Then Harrison" heaved a pass to Arnold Mathews, who caught the ball in the end zone for a touchdown. Ed Michaels conversion added the extra point.

Soon afterwards, Southern's ace passer receiver Cliff Coggin asserted himself by snagging one toss from Bobby Holmes, good for nine yards, and another giving him credit for 28, which brought the Mississippians to the Tech 24. On the next play, a pass from Holmes intended for "Bubber" Phillips, was intercepted by Tech's Gene Yarbrough. The Bulldogs worked their way up to their 40 as the first quarter ended. Early in the second quarter, the Bulldogs picked up their second touchdown, on a drive that began when Gene Yarbrough received a punt on his 45 and ran it up five yards. Jerry Alexander sprinted to the Southerners 39 and then added 10 yards to the 29.

Jewell Humphries made a first down on the) 27. A pass from Harrison to Gerald Mardis was incomplete, after which Harrison broke loose to the six-yard spot. Alexander lost four yards and Harrison passed to Mardis, who snatched the leather at the goal line and stepped across. Michael again kicked the extra point from place ment. Later In the second period, with Tech in possession on the 50, Har rison tore off on a 35-yard dash to the MSC 15.

A surprisingly stubborn Mississippi State Maroon eleven folded before the hard-hitting Louisiana State university Tigers here tonight, bowing, 34-7, to the determined Bengals before a homecoming crown Of 32,000 fans. With the game safely in hand and the Tigers enjoying a 27-7 leatf. the Bengals clawed out their final touchdown for the old erads with only a half-second remaining in the STATISTICS 1 La.

But Tiger powertold in the final period when they capitalized on a break for their fnnrth touchdown and thert tenaciously plodded along to the final marker. Billy Baggett put the Tigers in front early in the first period when he received beautiful blocking to score on a 33-yard touchdown jaunt around his left end. Carroll Griffith kicked his first of four extra points to put the Tigers out in front, 7-0.

Kenny Konz accounted for th second Bengal touchdown in the same period, scoring on a 28-yard dash through the middle, while the final Tiger TD of the first half came with -only 48 seconds left in the second period. Lee Hedges scored the tally when he was on the receiving end of a 15-yard pass from Charlie Pevey. The Maroons thwarted the Ti gers in the third and converted a oetiected intercepted pass into their lone counter. Don Robinson, who was very much in the game for the Maroons until he was injure crossed the goal line from six yards out for the Staters. Mjx Stainbrook, who also turned in a good game for the loser, kicked the extra point.

But in the fourth period, th Tigers broke loose, A blocked punt set up a touchdown, climaxed by a one-yard quarterback sneak by Pevey with a little more than six minutes left in the game. Then that last-second TD, by BilK- West, ended the scoring. During the halftime intermission. the LSU band, pep squad and Persian rifles put on a colorful demon stration, highlighted by a fire works displa3 for the returning alumni. Billy Baggett's 3o-vard touch down run behind magnificent in terference gave the Tigers their first touchdown with the game only five minutes old.

Mississippi Mate kicked off to the Tigers aft er winning the toss, but on the second play, Jerry Taylor intercepted Pevey's pass and returned it to the LSU 34. But four plays later, the Tigers took over on downs on their own 31-yard line. Hedges picked up 2 yards around left end. Van Buren hit the center for 4 yards and then made a first down on the LSU 44. Taylor stopped Hedges after a 3-vard gain.

then Lee streaked into the State secondary for a first down on the 43. Baggett raced around left end to the Maroon 39 and Van Buren drove to the State 33, just inches short of a first down. Baggett then took a pitchout, headed around his left end and picked up practically the entire left side of the Tiger line for interference as he went all the way. Griffith converted, making it 7-0 for LSU. About five minutes later, the Tigers had their seeond touchdown a 28-yard gallop through the middle Dy nonz accounting for the second tally.

The Tiger back shot through (Contlnaed On Page Forty-Two) Then Carl Snavely, coach of the North Carolina Tar Heels, and other Tar Heel supporters came up with a new wrinkle. Snavely had one of the top-ranking teams in the nation and perhaps the most publicized player in the country in Charlie Justice.
