That COLLEGES HAVE BEEN Regulars Drill for Wave Tat By BARNEY GHIO Times Sports Editor Tiger Stadium, Baton Rouge, Nov. 19.

The Lou isiana State university Tigers got rolling after a slow start here today to chalk up a 48-7 victory over a scrappy bunch of southeastern Louisiana college Lions. A slim crowd of 19,000, smallest in Tiger stadium in several years, wit nessed the contest in perfect football weather. The outclassed Lions made a fight out of it during the first half and threatened to tie up the game shortly after LSU had taken a 7-0 members of the newspaper iraternity that the fourth estate smile and the public one as well may turn to scorn unless the colleges do something about long, drawn-out james that sap one's energy and tax his eyesight. Grantland Rice, dean of American sports writers, yesterday warned that the unlimited substitution rule and the high incidence of penalties are dragging out the game to the point that frequently lights have to be turned on to enable teams to finish the contests. He pointed out that the game had to be finished under the arclights because it be came too dark for the spectators to see and the players to iunction.

He suggested that college sider starting games earlier, is a suggestion that meets with our whole-hearted approval and one that has been advanced by others.

Read some of the things Bill has to say: "A nationwide plea to universities, colleges, high schools and conferences is being sent out by newspapers and fans Last summer when Balk Estes was introduced to Shreveport mat wars at the outdoor Sportatorium the veteran wrestlers and mat managers agreed that he was the coming champion.

Although not 30 years old, the experts acclaimed Balk as Jack Curtis' successor. Upon such high recommendation promoter Gladden Harrison took a chance with the newcomer, pitting him against such battle-tested veterans as Paddy Mack, Bill Steddum, Char-He Laye, Rex Mobley and others. So brilliant was the Oklahoma youngster that he breezed through all opposition and demanded a show-down match with the champion, Jack Curtis. His threats were laughed-off for a while but it soon became evident that Curtis could side-step the young gladiator no longer. three times they met here and each time by some quirk of fate Curtis would manage to come back from the brink of defeat! with one of his million holds to Shutouts in Junior Grid In the city recreation depart ment's junior football league last night there were two shutouts and a 0-0 deadlock.

Claiborne lowered the boom, 40-0 on the Bossier City team with Billy Claycomb doing the scoring honors on three of the tallies. Dale Rogers, Edwin Suggs and Richard Stacks added the other touchdowns and Claycomb added the extra points. The no-score deadlock was played by Broadmoor and Queensborough in the 105-pound league with Queensborough having the upper hand on first downs, 10-6. Dick Guice and Joe Segars were the standouts for Broadmoor and Wesley Hampton and George Crain carried the honors for Queensborough.

Wharton. IN 66TH GAME New Haven (SF) Harvard and Yale football teams play their 66th game this season. However, we still feel that the real answer is in starting games earlier. Anyone who is going to a football game can put on notice by at least two Notre Dame-North Carolina officials would be wise to con at least 30 minutes earlier. It the clock is every atting Then, offic a close, but it is to be hoped a huddle and shove up the football into quasi- and turtle races between goal be in advancing the starting be done to curtail platoon the game to a certain extent.

It was the 27th renewal of thw traditional game between the two schools. get there 30 minutes earlier if off by being late. Re The Open Date THE RECENT RHUBARB BETWEEN Coach Dutch Meyer of Texas Christian university and Blair Cherry of lexas, has brought an FYI (for your information) from the TCU News service that clearly sets forth the Frog's position in the open-date discussion.

T.C.U. has had an open date before its game with Texas for only four seasons since 1946. The Frogs have won two came at a one-a-period rate through the afternoon. But the record crowd of 30,070 surged and roared under the Cava liers' second half comeback in the end. Class told the story.

Tulane was too big, too fast and too alert on pass defense. Three pass interceptions by wide-eyed Jimmy Glisson helped thwart the tossing of Whitey Michels, Jimmy Lesane and Steve Osisek. Nevertheless the Virginia tossers outpitched Tulane in total yardage, 142 to 120. The Green Wave barely outrushed the losers, 159 to 156 yards. Virginia's dreams of an all-wii ning season all but disappeared in the first few minutes of play.

They never were able to close the gap. Taking the opening kickoff, Tulane smashed 68 yards in 12 playa to a quickie touchdown. A 34-yard pass from Joe Ernst to Dick Sheffield set it up and another pass this time from Ernst to Bobby Jones from the 4 produced the score. Virginia never was past the Tulane 48 in the first half and a Glisson Interception of a Michels toss set up a second Green Wave score late In the second quarter. Jones, who scored the first, pegged a 13-yard pass to high-pockets Dick Sheffield who made a fine end zone catch.

Virginia looked more like the fine club that surprised Pennsylvania two weeks ago when it rushed out after intermission to stage its best sustained march of the chill after noon. Taking a booming Euel Davit punt deep in its own territory, the Cavaliers quickly moved 77 yards in seven plays. Papit, bottled up through the first half when he was guilty of a fumble, started to hi real stride. With Papit careening through the middle, and Osisek hitting Ed Bessell with a 36-yard pass play, Virginia advanced to the 13. Lefty Lesane reached Myron Mausteller with a touchdown pass and the stands went wild.

It didn't last long for Glisso grabbed a Michels punt and raced 64 yards for a score, the finest run of the day. Ellsworth Kingery intercepted an Osisek pass and set the stage for Price to churn across from the 11 on the first play of the last quarter. Trailing by three touchdowns, Virginia did' little but throw in the final stages. One drive bogged down on the 13 when they yielded the ball on downs. The second clicked for a score with Osisek tossing to Gene Edmunds from the 7 with the clock running out.

Davis who had one punt that traveled 65 yards from scrimmage, added all four extra points for Virginia. Carlton Elliott converted after both of Virginia's scores. TlXASE Left end Sheffield, Kirkpatrick. Kibo-deaux. Left tackle Druen.

An overflow crowd of 18,000 saw Furman snot Clemson three touchdowns, then put on a ykliant recovery that fell All thi scoring was in the second half. lead In the first period, but Bengal power exerted itself in the second half and Coach Gaynell Tinsely took advantage of an opportunity to give his reserve! experience and rest his regulars. Early in the third period, when the Tigers had the game safely salted away, Tinsley sent his regulars out behind the scoreboard clock to get in a few extra licks of training beore the big game with Tulane next Saturday. He began by sending them out for the extra drills in one and twos, but by the time the game had worn down to the final minutes, about two full teams were working out behind the clock. The the Tigers scored one touchdown in the first period, two in the second and three in the third while each team managed one tally in the final period.

After a fumble stalled the Tigers on the Southeastern 20-yard line, the Bengals came back to rack up their first touchdown the next time they- gained possession of the ball. Carl Wettergreen recovered Lee Hedges' fumble on the Southeastern 30, but the Lions failed to make any progress and Kenny Konz took Noel Wilkins' punt on the midstripe and returned to the Southeastern 30-yard line. Billy West picked up 4 yards over right tackle and Hedges found a big hole in the middle for a first down on the Lions 17. Charlie Pevey threw a pass out of bounds and West drove down to the Lions' 8, then with the game about five minutes old, Billy Baggett took a pitchout and went over left guard to score standing up. Carroll Griffith converted, giving the Tigers a 7-0 lead.

Jimmy Roshto intercepted a long heave from Gene Simmons to take the ball away from the Lions after the kickoff, but another fumble thwarted the Bengals after they had driven down to the Southeastern 22-yard marker. West fum bled at that point and Robert Morse recovered for the Lions on the 21. Jerry Zimmerman quick-kicked the Bengals into a hole after two running plays, Roshto taking the punt back on the LSU 21 and returning to the 24. Then the Lions took the offensive and threatened Tiger goal when Manuel Dugas intercepted Griffith's pass on the LSU 40 and returned to the Bengal 21. The interception came on the first play of the second period.

The Lions drove down to the Tiger 5-j-ard line, a pass from Simmons to Wilkins moving the ball from the 21 to the 7-yard line eating up most of the yardage. However, the Tigers stiffened when the Lions had a first down on the 7 and took over on downs on the LSU 5-yard line. The Tigers punted after failing to get an offensive rolling and then took over the ball on downs on their own 31-yard line, from there they marched to their second touchdown with three and one-half minutes left in the first half. The drive was highlighted by a 22-yard run around left end bv "Bubba" Field that gave the Ti gers a first down on the bouth-eastern 21-yard stripe. Field added two yards through the middle and after LSU was penalized 5 yards for offsides, Sam Lyle caught Pevey pass, but he was out of the end zone.

However, Billy Barton raced around right end to the Tigers' 3, from where Van Buren carried it across. Griffith again converted. The Tigers started again after Noel Wilkins had punted out of bounds on the Tiger li-yard line. A long aerial from Pevey to Charlie Gaudin gave the Tigers a first down on the Lions' 48-yard marker, and another moved the ball to the 19. Then after two incomplete passes, Billy Baggett tore wide around left end for the third Tiger tally, which came with only 10 seconds remaining in the half.
