Vanderbilt scored in less than tlx minutes after the opening kickoff with a 72-march and the Gators never quite recovered from that early assault.

Eleven plays were required for the Commodores to cover those 72 yards. Most of it came on blasts off the Florida tackles that rocked the Gators back on their heels.

King and Horton, another Florida native from St. Petersburg, hammered out all the yardage.

Earl Jalufka came in to kick the extra point that made it 7-0 with only five minutes and 38 seconds elapsed. Jackie Simpson, forced to sit out over half the game with a charley horse, got the Gators started after that touchdown with a punt return to the Vanderbilt 39. Aided by a roughness penalty, Florida moved to the 19 but a clipping penalty against the Gators killed that threat. Immediately after that, Vandy rolled again from its 20 to the Gators six before being halted King hit his right guard for the touchdown. Jalufka again kicked the point.

The Gators dominated play through the remainder of the first half and came dangerously close to scoring in the late stages- Starting from Vandy's 47, Lance directed a drive to the 24 with Rountree and fullback Bill Bolton grinding it out on the ground. when the Florida line braced long Allen entered the game with enougn to take over on downs.

(iP) Florida sportswriters yesterday signed a resolution questioning part of the Florida Board of Control's reasoning in directing the University of Florida and Florida State University to meet in football next year. The Board of Control at a Tallahassee meeting Friday ordered the presidents of the two state universities to make arrangements for a football game in 1956. The sportswriters, here to cover the Florida-Vanderbilt game, telegraphed their resolution to Fred Kent, Jacksonville, Board of Control chairman. They said: "We challenge the accuracy of the board's findings on two counts: "(1. That no progress has been made toward athletic relations between the two schools in the two years since the board ordered this to be done.

Actually, meetings have been arranged in all sports except football and and basketball and solid offers have been exchanged by each side on the latter two sports.

Schultz, a 177-pounder with the drive of a fullback, scored two touchdowns and performed superbly on defense to steer the Minnesotans to their third victory against six setbacks. He received hefty support from a quick-charging Gopher line and another sophomore, fullback Dick Borstad, whose pile-driving gave tbe Badgers no chance to set for Schultz.

Ralph Jordan, head football coach at Auburn, last night would neither confirm nor deny a published report that he has been approached concerning the head football job at the University of Florida. The Birmingham News, in a story by Zipp Newman, Sports Editor said Jordan has been offered a longtime contract at Florida at $21,000 a year.

Presumably he would replace Bob Woodruff, who has another year to serve on a seven-year contract a $18,000 a year, Newman wrote. At Mobile, just before returning to Auburn after the Tigers' 21-0 victory over Clemson yesterday, Jordan said, "1 am very happy at Auburn."
