On the first play of the game White ran 65 yards for a touchdown. Later in the quarter he stepped off 43 yards for another score. NE17 FALL HATS less season's football record here today by pounding out a hard fought 27 to 14 victory over the University of California at Los Angeles. In a grueling battle in which long runs and spectacular passes were a dime a dozen, the Rose bowl bound Bears scored 4 touchdowns against 2 for U. C.

L. A. to remain one of the few undefeated, untied teams in the nation. The Bears presented an all star aggregation, headed by rambling Victor Bottari in the backfield and Capt. Bob Herwig, center, in the line.

Time after time, however, the smooth efforts of the big California team almost were stalemated by the individual brilliance of Kenny Washington, giant Negro U. C. L. A. halfback, plus fighting teammates, inspired by a homecoming crowd of 50,000.

When Washington left the game in the final period after a 28-yard The ball carrying ability of elusive Bud Seelinger provided the punch for the Great Falls Bisons to overcome a 7 to 6 first "half disadvantage and emerge victorious over a Missoula high school aggregation 19 to 7 in their last home football struggle Saturday night. The locals lacked the fight and versatility shown in previous contests this year but Seelinger's flashy performance in the ball toting role more than made up the difference. Scoring all 3 touchdowns for the Bisons, one of which was a 66-yard run, the speedy backfield ace retired from the contest late in the third quarter. His first scoring run came early in the initial period when Pew fumbled a punt and MacPherson recovered for the Bisons. Seelinger smashed through tackle from the 18-yard line on the first play to score.

As the belated second half started, Seelinger took the ball on his own 34, sped down the sidelines for some distance, then cleverly eluded a lone Garden City player to cross the pay stripe. Late in the same quarter he intercepted a Missoula pass on his jwn 42 and raced to the opposite 19 aefore he was downed. On the next play, Seelinger went through the center of the line and plowed through three Missoula secondary men for another goal. Great Fallswas unimpressive during the first half. Coach Eddie Chinske of Missoula started his second stringers against the Bisons and they clearly outplayed them.

Time and again they opened wide gaps in the Great Falls line through which backs galloped for considerable yardage. On defense, Missoula stopped the locals' attack completely in the first quarter, except for Seelinger's touchdown run. In the second period, however, the Bisons penetrated the visitors line with more success. The Garden city second team culminated a 47-yard march to the goal when Roberts plunged over from the 2-yard marker for a touchdown in the second stanza. After taking a Great Falls punt on the locals' 47, the visitors utilized a deceptive running 'and passing attack to reach pay dirt.

Pew made 6 yards through tackle and then added 3 more on a wide end run. Roberts hit center for a first down on the Bison 37 and then passed to Hoffman for 3 yards. Two line plays and another pass from Roberts to Hoffman was good for a first down on the 26. Pew sneaked through tackle for 9 yards but a 15 -yard penalty for holding put Missoula back on the 34. Pew made 5 yards on the next play and Roberts passed to Tuxbury for a first down on the 3 -yard line.

Two plays later Missoula scored and Roberts kicked the extra point. First Team Enters At this point Coach Chinske sent his first team into the fray. Great Falls received the kickoff and made 2 first downs in a row to drive down to the Missoula 45 before they were forced to kick. The visitors took the kick on their own 20 and worked it back to the 28 before punting to the Great Falls 32, where Seelinger made a 17-yard return. On the first play Hilman intercepted Seelinger's pass and brought it back to his own 43-yard line.

Missoula tried 2 plays and kicked out of bounds on the Bison 23. Trailing, the locals opened up a passing at ST Tribune Photo. Recovery of a muffed punt early in the first quarter gave Great Falls its first and only scoring opportunity of the initial half of the game against Missoula Saturday night but the Bisons vere quick to take advantage of the "break" and sent Seelinger (No. 25) off for a run of 18 yards and a touchdown.

California scored her initial touchdown early in the opening period when Hal Hirshon, U. C.

L. A. halfback, dropped a perfect pass from Washington in midfield and the Bears recovered. Bottari was unstoppable on a touchdown drive of 11 plays. He packed the ball on 10 occasions and threw a pass to Halfback Sam Chapman for a first down enroute.

Bottari scored from the 1-yard line and Chapman converted from placement. Washington started a U. C. L. A.

drive shortly after the Bear score when he tossed a long pass to Wood-row Wilson Strode, Negro right end, who was standing on the Bear 21-yard line. Four smashes and a 5-yard offside penalty gave U. C. L. A.

first down on the California 9 and on the first play of the series Hirshon skirted his right end for the touchdown. Billy Bob Williams, fullback, made a place kick for the extra point. Beavers Hold Stanford to Scoreless Tie Oregon State Misses On 3 Chances to Score his opinion scarcely changed, Buhler was shifted to the backfield. Then things began to happen. His last year in high school found Buhler scoring all cf his team's touchdowns except one.

Meanwhile Buhler was getting in physical buildup by working summers as a farm hand. A sophomore last year, when he made 6 Gopher touchdowns, Buhler has one year of varsity competition remaining at Minnesota. Last year, in the Texas game, Buhler hit the line, broke through and, losing his interference, knocked 3 Texans in a row to the ground. Then he galloped 93 yds. to a touchdown.

Now he's no longer a funny man; he's learned to synchronize the action of those mighty legs and arms and the way he uses his frame to powder opposing lines is what the boys call poetry of motion. Just top that off with the fact Buhler is one of the fastest men on the squad, and you know why Coach Bernie Bierman classes him with the versatile Andy Uram as a key man in his backfield.

In high school Buhler much preferred baseball, basketball and track and it was only upon Insistence of Les Pulkrabek, his coach and a former Gopher player, that he tried out for football.

Bernard Magnusson at quarterback starred as usual for the home team, both in passing and running.

Utah State challenged often but its only score came at the start of the second half. The home squad went down the field 66 yards after receiving the kickoff, Magnusson scoring in three plunges from the 9-yard line, and adding the extra point. A penalty cost the Colorado Aggies a touchdown at the start of the game. Nicholls, Colorado Aggie end, set the stage by blocking Magnus-son's punt on the Utah State 25, and recovering the ball 1 foot from the goal line. The ace flankman of the invaders crossed the goal line on an end around sweep, but the play was called back when the Colorado Aggies were held to have been offside.

A pass over the goal line was knocked down, and Magnusson kicked out of danger. Modern fabrics often contain as many as five or six different fibers. Pitt Rumbles Over Groom Your Dog Regularly to keep its skin end hair in condition. Use Our Dog Brushes 25c and up. Dog to $1 Blankets $1 Dog Beds.

ft A. I i i yf, h- In Tilt on Muddy Grid PALO ALTO, Oct. 30 (U.P.) Stanford university's Cardinals and Oregon State's crange-clad footballers battled to a scoreless tie before 25,000 fans here this afternoon in a game that started in the rain and ended in semidarkness. Rain, which fell through most of the first half, made the field slippery and the ball hard to handle, slowing up the wide open attacks on which both teams had been depending for scores. What little advantage there was rested with the Oregon Staters who had three chances to score to Stanford's one.

But the defenses, digging into the sodden field, turned back each threat, and at the end the teams were battling around midfield, sparring for openings that never came. Most of the game was a superb punting duel bet ween Duncan of the Staters and Bill Paulman and Fay of the Cardinals. Despite the wet ball, the kickers got off long placed boots that kept the enemy bottled up in its own territory. Only once was there a punting bobble, and it almost led to an Oregon State score. Set back on his 1-yard line by a clipping penalty.

Bill Paulman stood in the end zone to kick Stanford out of hole in the third period. Left Nihil broke through and parti: blocked the kick, which rolled out of bounds on Stanford's 13-yard line. Aroused by this break against them, Stanford's defense charged in fast to throw Oregon State back 22 yards in 4 plays. One of them was a pass attempt on which Johnny Higgins slipped to drop 10 yards. Once in the first period, when an intercepted pass by Duncan and a ground attack by Gray and Kolberg carried the ball to Stanford's and again in the fourth when Duncan, set to punt, crossed Stanford and ran 13 yards for a first down on Stanford's 37 and Halfback Bob Alexander moved it to the 27, Oregon State had scoring chances.

But a pass interception by Jimmy Coffis spoiled the first drive, and Hutchins missed a placement goal attempt from the 32-yard line to end another. Stanford's lone chance came in the second period when Fullback Jim Groves intercepted a pass on Oregon State's 47. Off tackles smashes by Groves and reverses by Fay carried the ball to the 11 -yard line, where Stanford lost it on downs. Goodman Is Winner In First Round Play Of Mexican Tourney MEXICO CITY. Oct.

30 (JP) Johnny Goodman of Omaha, U. S. amateur champion, opened his defense of the amateur golf championship of Mexico today by routing Morris Norton of Wichita Falls, 6 and 5 in a first round match. Goodman, who was exempted from the qualifying round played earlier in the day, was 1 under par for the 13 holes he played.

Baylor Beats Frogs WACO, Oct. 30 Undefeated Baylor beat Texas Christian 6 to 0 in one of the most hair raising grid classics ever played in the southwest today. Bill Patterson passed Baylor to a first period touchdown but little Davey O'Brien had his Christians on the 4-yard line when the final gun sounded. on to victory. Missoula received and after trying 3 plays, punted to the Great Falls 33, where Seelinger made a 28-yard return.

The Bisons lost the ball on downs a short while later and Potter punted out of bounds on the Great Falls 34. Seelinger took O'Mahoney's lateral and ran to the goal on the first play to put the Bisons ahead 12 to 7. Later in the period Great Falls marched to the Missoula 19 before their attack was halted. Missoula Passes With the Bisons, in the lead, Missoula opened up with a threatening passing attack late in the third quarter. Roberts passed to Potter for a first down on his own 48.

Another pass failed and then Seelinger intercepted a third aerial thrust and ran to the 14 before he was downed. Seelinger scored on the next play and O'Mahoney went through center for the extra point. The fourth quarter offered little in the way of action. Whenever the visitors got possession of the ball they attempted to pass but, for the most part, were unsuccessful and were forced to punt. Not once did they reach Bison territory.

The game ended with Great Falls in possession of the ball on their own 26-yard line. For Missoula Pew was the outstanding ground gainer. Several times early in the contest he dashed through the Great Falls line for gains. The visitors' much touted passing attack was not counted upon very much until late in the game. Statistics the game showed Great Falls made 7 first downs to 5 for Missoula.

The visitors attempted 9 forward passes, completed 4 and had 2 intercepted. The Bisons tried 10 aerial thrusts, completed 3 and had 2 intercepted. Great Falls lost 35 yards on penalties, while Missoula lost 25. The lineups: Great Falls Pos. Missoula Talcott LE Tuxbury Anderson L.T....
