Clipping Hurts Seconds earlier, Iowa had an ap parent winning to uchdown snatched away when officials detected a Hawkeye clipping on Earl Smith's 81 yard sprint into the en1 zone on a punt run back. The penalty shoved Iowa back to the 3 and an offside infraction sent the Hawks to the 1.

Iowa tried two running plays which pro duced negligible yardage before Relchow tossed to Vincent. It was a game of swiftly shift ing fortune, bannered by McNa mara's two long touchdown gallops and the deadly end sweeps of Vincent and Smith.

13 (P) Quarterback Jack Conway, 195-pound sophomore, led the Wichita Shockers to an upset 13-0 football victory today over previously unbeaten Cincinnati, which was unable to plow past the Kansans' 26-yard marker. By MIKE SOFFIN Aaaeelate Fresa SporU Writer Minneapolis, Nov. 13 must have made a million yards," coach- Forest Evashevski said dejectedly after his Iowa team dropped a 22-20 heart-pcundlng game to a flred-up Minnesota team here today. Across the way Gopher coach Murray Warmath, carried off the field on the shoulders of his victorious Gophers appeared almost exhausted in the dressing room. "This Is the happiest moment of the year," he said.

"I'm awful glad we don't have to play them tomorrow." Iowa, which fought back three times to tie the game with touchdowns and lost on a third period safety, picked up a net of 398 yards rushing and passing against a tough Gopher defense. Evashevski, downcast as he walked along a back aisle of the quiet Iowa locker room, said his team "moved the ball better than in any other game this season." "Minnesota showed us nothing we didn't expect," he added. Bob McNamara, the Minnesota captain who scored game's first touchdown on a 36-yard burst and then ran an Iowa klckoff back 89 yards for another score, said the victory was "sweet revenge." Georgia Tech Raps Alabama Atlanta, Nov. 13 P) Tiny Jim my Thompson, smallest man on the field, and his speedy sophomore teammates sliced the nation's leading defense to shreds today and hauled Georgia Tech to a 20-0 football victory over Ala bama. The lightning-fast Tech attack, paced by the 5-foot-6, 150-pound Thompson, consistently bewildered the igger, slower Alabama defenders, Thompson, Paul Roten-berry, George Volkert, and Johnny Menger all sophomores-treated a sellout crowd of 40,000 and a nationwide television audi ence to one of the better offensive shows of the season.

Thompson, from Bessemer, Ala' and rubbing it in on his home state for passing him up, scored two touchdowns and twisted and squirmed his way for the major share of Tech's yardage in the one-sided Southeastern conference victory. Rotenberry raced 45 yards for Tech's first touchdown with the game scarcely a minute old. He was sprung loose on the "belly play" with the help of brilliant faking by fullback John Hunslng- er. The victory was USD's fifth this season against three losses and gave them a 3-3 mark In NCC play. Their only remaining game is against Austin College in Sherman, Tex.

next Saturday. Johnson, sensational Milbank right halfback, perhaps the highest-scoring back in USD history, roared for four touchdowns in the first half and added another tn the third quarter as the Coyotes rolled to their highest-scoring total of the season. Johnson's final touchdown gave USD a 33-20 lead. Rover Scores Two After Johnson finished his scor-big, fullback Fred Rovere, one of five seniors playing his final home game, shredded the Aggie defense for 13 and 8 yard touchdown runs and soph Wayne Simons exploded for 52 yards and another TD to complete the rout. Two of Johnson's first half touchdowns came on 46 and 60 yard touchdown passes thrown by quarterback Mick McDowell.

Be sides gaining 106 yards on pass re ceptions, Johnson gained 99 yards rushing in 16 attempts. He thus completed the NCC sea. son with 66 points scored and has rushed 508 yards both league-leading totals. In all games Johnson has scored 98 points and has rushed 847 yards. It was an easy victory for the Coyotes after they toyed with the Bison the first 16 minutes and held only a 7-6 lead.

Johnson scored USD's first tally midway in the first quarter on a ore-yard smash after he broke loose for a 29-yard run to the four only to have his own man knock him down. Haaklnson's kick was ood.

The defeat virtually ended Georgia's hopes of winning the SEC title but Auburn emerged from the game as a fine candidate for a New Year's Day bowl trip despite three early season losses. Auburn scored on four of the first five times it got the ball, with Childress, a battering fullback, and speedy halfbacks Dave Middleton and Fob James doing the damage on the ground. Quarterback Bobby Freeman's passes to Pyburn, an all America end hopeful, kept Georgia defenses honest Stanford Upset by I San Jose State 11 Palo Nov. 13 (ZD-San Jose State threw a bevy of shifty backs and a hard charging line at Stanford today and beat the Indians 19-14 for the first time in the history of their rivalry.
