There may have been something "crucial" about the University of Virginia's football game with Virginia Tech I in Roanoke's Victory stadium to- i day, but the Cava-i liers of Coach Art Guepe never; found out what it was.

Warwick (or call them Morrison if you care we're neutral) made six first downs to Fredericksburg's 12. The lone score for the locals came in the second quarter with the first team in, after Fredericksburg, operating well from a formation, had moved into a two touchdown lead and had appeared headed for a rout. The Farmers' scoring drive started when Doug Petty returned Hall's punt to his own 37. From there, Warwick drove down to the Monroe 11, with a 29 yard gain on a pass by Petty to Matth- ews providing a Dig nunic oi tne yardage.

Three tries at the line from that point gained but six yards, and then Petty's fourth down 'pass connected to Matthews in the end zone for the score. The first Fredericksburg counter Mississippi Takes Win Over Gamecocks Memphis, Oct. 4 6TV- University of Mississippi matched touchdowns in clusters today to overwhelm South Carolina, 33 to 0, for its third straight victory in a contest played In a drenching rain before 12,000. The slippery football was no deterrent to rifle-armed Charlie Con-erly, who passed for three of the markers. A sub-end, Jack Odom, sprinted 87 yards for another and the final counter came in the fourth period through the sweat of eager third-stringers.

"But that doesn't mean he might not be traded some time in the fu- ture," he said. Newspapers here carried front page stories today reflecting fan re- to the proposed disposal of Boudreau, and virtually all of them felt this way: keep Boudreau. Veeck explained his position: "Anyone can make trades involving second stringers.

I am trying to get established, day-after-day first stringers. And how can I get them? I can trade Boudreau or I can trade Bob Feller.

Yale Gridders Down Cornell New Haven, Oct. 4 lP) Yale's footballers, aroused by the rough treatment given their ace Ne gro back, Levi Jackson, unleased two long marches to pulverize scrappy Cornell, 14 to 0, in the bowl today.

It was a rough, tough Ivy league battle. More than fifty thousand fans saw the Ells avenge the loss of Jackson, their ebony express, who suffered a head concussion the first time he took the ball early in the opening period. His was a three-yard gain, but It spurred the Yales on to complete a savage 68-yard sortie for the Army Scores At Will To Club Colorado 47-0 Austin, Oct. 4. (P The University of Texas turned on the heat to smash North Carolina 34-0 today.

A crowd of 47,000 saw the Long-horns combine the accurate passing of quarterback Bobby Layne with the power and speed of fullback Tommy Landry, right halfback Randall Clay and left halfback Bry-on Gillory to win their third victory of the season. Texas' first tally came on a 44-yard pass from Layne to Gillory, who got in behind the Tarheels' good for oo yards and Virginias final touchdown. Coach Jimmy Kitts Gobblers' used what many regarded as their best offensive weapon of the 1946 seasonthe blocked punt to avoid a whitewashing. In the fourth, Lynch burg's Cordell McGraw slashed through to block one of the fifth team's punts on, the Cavalier 32, scooped-up the leather and never looked back. Tackle Ross Orr's place pick was good.

Blaik 6ent a total of 46 players into the game, including 18 backs. Most of them gained ground through and over the bulky Colorado line, which was able to stop the Cadets only once. Elwyn (Rip) Rowan, who Is try ing to fill Doc Blanchard's place at fullback, was the only Cadet to score twice. He did it In the first quarter, when the Buffaloes still were putting up strong resistance, on a long pass from Bill Gustafson.

He repeated in the fourth on a 12-yard end run. Other touchdowns were made by Amos Gillette, Bert Aton, Bobby Stuart, Winfield Scott and Karl Kuckhahn. Jack Mackmull converted five times in seven attempts. Gustafson, the first-string quarterback in the formation, was used sparingly and Arnold Galiffa was given a strenuous workout at that position. For the most part, Army used only two sets of linemen and after the first quarter they were able to handle the big but green Colorado forwards.

At the outset, Army's first drive was stopped a foot short of a score and the Cadets didn't ring up their first six points until Gustafson hid the ball behind his leg until he could heave, a 32 yard pass to Rowan, who ran the last four. After that, the roof slowly began to cave in on Colorado. Pos.

An air-minded Jefferson senior high school eleven from Roanoke, skillfully operating from a winged formation, handed the Blue Comets their first conference defeat in three years. The score was 13 to 6. It was no fluke.

The Magicians, after spotting the Granby team a touchdown in the first minute of play, came back to clearly outplay the Comets and stun a crowd of 9,000. With a record of 32 straight wins, the Comets last Christmas fell to Lynn, 21-14, in Miami Orange Bowl.

Layne, on a cutback around his left end trav eled to the four.

But North Carolina stopped Texas on the one on fourth down.
