Four South Dakota football Saturday in the state but the solutely no effect on the final standings in either the North Central Conference or the South Dakota Intercollegiate Con ference. South Dakota State had wrapped up the NCC crown a week earlier, and Northern State Teacher's College took the SDIC ti i SECOND SECTION victory throne a week before State, In the SDIC, Yankton College Braase Rated 'One of Best' Tackles in Coyote History Vermillion, Nov. 16 Ordell Braase is the coaches' dream of a football player. The hulking 6-4, 210-pound University of South Dakota tackle wound up his collegiate grid career in a glorious finale against North Dakota U.

last Saturday. Two years ago, Braase was picking up splinters on the USD bench, not even rated a top prospect for the future. Today he rates as the top lineman In the North Central Conference, an all-NOC choice last year, a certainty for -the honor this year, and a top prospect for Little Ail-American. USD Coach Harry Gamage calls Braase "a better tackle than Bob Jennings was last year." Jennings was selected second team Little AII-American for his outstanding play. "He's a 60-minute player all the way," continued Gamage, who has coached a long string of outstanding tackles.

"He's a hard worker, a good student, and has great spirit. Braase is the hardest worker I've ever had. He's the best tackle in the league." Line Coach Dan Lennon cited Braase as "among the best we've ever had here. Lennon, in his playing days, was selected the most valuable player in the NCC. "Big Brace," as his teammates prefer to call him, has played 60-minutes of every game this year with the exception of the final two minutes of the romp over Morningside and a quarter against Drake where he banged a knee.

His vicious defense is one reason wny tne opposition seldom runs a play in his direction or gain too much when they try. His blocking is a prime reason for left halfback Ralph Polenz leading the team in rushing. Braase, a Mitchell boy Is no slow. poke on his feet Last spring he won the lntra-mural 100-yard dash with a 10.17 effort with no previous practice. All-conference 'cage selectors probably will have Braase's name at the top of their list after the hardcourt season ends.

Cage mentor Rube Hoy rates Braase as his top performer along with Slim Jim Tays. Braase received honorable mention last year. The State College game this spotted Sioux Falls College two touchdowns in the first quarter, then went on to win with ease, 34-12. South Dakota University lost to North Dakota University, 18- 14 and South Dakota State visited Wichita University and found the Wheatshockers had too much all around speed in 39-13. Mines Ties for 3rd Earlier in the week, on veteran's day, Mines moved into a third-place tie with Southern in the SDIO by beating Black Hills Teachers, 19-6.

And more fans climbed on the Northern State Teachers College bandwagon as the powerful Wolves whipped Valley City Teachers, the North Dakota Intercollegiate champions, 46-0. Two fumbles led to both of. the Sioux Falls College first quarter scores in their game with Yankton College Saturday. Rod Christensen scored the first Brave touchdown and Harry Ballard the second. Then the Yankton Greyhounds went to work as Halfback Bill Ram-lett and End Bill Johnson scored and Dick Monogue kicked two conversions to give Yankton a 14-12 half time lead.

In the last half Jerry Cameron, Minogue and Johnson added three more touchdowns for the Hounds. The South Dakota Coyotes held a 14-12 halftime lead in their final game with the North Dakota University at Vermillion Saturday. Mickey McDowell and Ralph Polenz scored the TDs and Polenz added the extra points to give the Don Bucceroni Fights Beshore Wednesday Night Bout Tops Week's Boxing Schedule New York, Nov. 16 OT Lanky Danny Bucceronl, mentioned as a February title opponent for Heavy weight Champion Rocky Marciano, trains his big guns on Freddie Beshore in a national television ten rounder at Los Angeles Wednesday night. The 6-3, 190-pound Philadel-phian has won seven in a row and shouldn't have too much difficulty with the slow, moving heavyweight trial horse.

Beshore has been thumped by the division's best, including Marciano. The Olympic Auditorium and TV fight is designed to show Buccy at his best. Starting time is 9 p.m., CST. CBS Friday's top fight matches a cou ple of former TV whiz kids who haven't lived up to their raves. The ten rounder at Madison Square Garden sends Chico Vejar, of Stam ford, against Vince Martinez of Paterson, N.J., in a return bout.

-x Vejar, a drama student at NYU, whipped the favored Martinez, a former draftsman, in a ten at the Garden, March 13, 1953. Chico has won his last 11 in a row. Martinez has won three straight. Starting at 9 p.m., CST, the bout will be broadcast (ABC) and tele cast (NBC) coast to coast. The third national TV bout of the week is an interesting middleweight pairing between Pierre Langlois of France and St, Louis teams helped end the season outcome of the games had ab Coyotes their lead.

Hallada Stars But South Dakota couldn't check Cal Hallada, North Dakota's passer, nor Dick Ryan who led the Sioux ground offense. The Sioux scored-the winning touchdown midway in the third period when Lowell Larson went over from the five. The Coyotes came right back and drove to the NDU 12 only to lose the ball on a fumble with about six minutes left in the game. Down at Wichita, South Dakota State showed little respect for Wichita University's line. Wichita had held its seven previous opponents to an average of 160 yards per game on the State racked up 217 yards in rushing, but Wichita got 410 along the ground.

For State Jerry Welch scored from the 16 and Ken Ashmore plunged across from the one both touchdowns coming in the second period. The Jackrabbits fumbled five times with Wichita recovering every time to hurt State's offense. Wichita fed 32-13 at the half.

The Lions defeated She Green Bay Packers 14-7 while the best the Los Angeles Rams could do was a 24-24 tie with the winless Chicago Cardinals. And the San Francisco 49ers bowed to the Browns 23-21.

More than half of the scoring was crammed into the fourth quar ter, which opened with Cleveland leadine 13-7. Groza had kicked a field goal in each of the second and third quarters for the margin. Graham, whose race was Injured in a sideline play six minutes be fore the first half ended, came back and pitched passes of 33 and 34 yards to Ray Renfro in the Browns' first touchdown drive of the final period.

The 49ers promptly drove 81 yards to a touchdown on a 31-yard Dass to Hugh McElhenny. The Browns' answer was Groza's third field goal, a 28 yarder, and that was enough to more than match the 49ers final tally by Y. A. Tittle at the end of an 84-yard march.

By WILL GRIMSLEY Associated Prcsa Sports Writer Chapel Hill, N.C., Nov. 18 JPh Notre Dame and Maryland stood alone today as the only unbeaten and untied powers of college football, snd the argument waxed hot down here in the tall pine country over which is the greater. "Notre Dame goes down in my book as No. 1 until somebody beats them," said Head Coach George Barclay of North Carolina, whose Tarheels bowed to the Irish 34-1 Saturday.

Previously North Carolina had dropped a 28-0 decision to Maryland, ranked second in the Associated Press poll behind the Irishgiving the Tarheels the distinction of being the only team to meet both the nation's leaders in hand-to-hand combat. Barclay's assistant, Bin Edwards, who scouted both teams, said last week he'd have to string along witri Notre Dame because of its, "great power." After Saturday's game, the Tarheels, coaches and players, were mostly of the same mind, but a bit more doubtful. "I like the Maryland backfield better, I think," said Barclay. "It's a different kind of backfield than Notre Dame's. It's fast, sharp and tricky, can do more things and is more liable to hit for the distance.

"But Notre Dame's line is tre mendous and what power that team has. I doubt if it's ever really been put to the test. No telling what it can do." Assistant Coach Jim G11L who has seen Maryland five times, wasn't ready to concede Notre Dame an edge. Maryland is better defensively. said Gill.

"It has two teams, one just as good as the other." North Carolina players, themselves, were divided on the issue but an informal poll of the squad showed a majority vote for the. Irish. "No comparison," said Ken Yar-brough of High Point, N.C., end and captain. "Notre Dame's much better. Their blocking and tackling makes them great, and they never quit hustling." Marshall Newman.

19-year-old sophomore quarterback from Clin ton, N.C., said, "Maryland has a better backfield that is, except lor this guy, Neil Worden." Tackle Francis Fredere from Wilmington, N.C., said he had his doubts that Notre Dame could take Maryland, but there was no lack of conviction for Ken Keller, the Tarheels' shifty halfback from Sa- lina. who declared of Notre Dame: They're the greatest team In tha country.
