But that is now ancient history, so far as Coach Pappy Waldorf and his Bear gridmen are concerned. Starting today they are concentrating on the U.C.L.A. game in Berkeley next Saturday, and please don't mention the Rbse Bowl.

Marinos Johnson Star In Kezar Win Wolfpock Tok-si Lead -T-wico; John Htnry Scores Three Times By BILL DUNBAR If they want to get past their next opponents, the Galloping Gaels from St Mary's will have to play some sharp football and play it rough. Putting on a slipshod performance for too much of the game, the Gaels finally got an offense together and subdued an injury-riddled underdog Nevada team, 25-14, at Kezar Stadium yester- Although the Nevada Wolfpackr was supposed to roll over and; play dead when the Gaels walked on the field, 6276 fans watched in amazement as the Pack dashed to a score in the first two and a half minutes of the game. "If my players don't perform any better against San Jose State next Friday, they'll be whipped by 46 points," thin- linped Gael Coach Joe Rueti said after the game. Fortunately, St.

Mary's had a man named John Henry Johnson. Playing his first game at left the former Gael full-hack scored" three of the S't. Mary's touchdowns and intercepted a pass and ran 43 yards to set up the other one. OFFENSE ERRATIC The offenses of both teams moved in an erratic manner. The Gaels would smash off considerable yardage and then bog down.

The Wolfpack, with an excellent passer in Quarterback Pat Brady and a fine receiver in End W'ally Graf, showed dangerous spurts; through the air but didn't have the ground power to sustain many drives. The vaunted Gael safety Johnson and Sam Bombiani didn have much chance to operate asj the Nevada kickoff men skidded' A-rollers along the ground and aimed for the sidelines on punts. Ruetz tried a two-platoon offensive backfield for the first time, but had to break up the platoons as some of the backs weren't running too well. His best unit had Johnson and John Ambrose at halfbacks and Tom Fletcher at fullback. After falling behind when Nevada scored early in the game, the Gaels were able to wear down r28-Tnan-WolrpaclrstniadHmd- Jump into a 13-7 halftone lead.

The Pack went ahead again In the third period on their best sustained drive, but a Gael touchdown three plays after the following kickoff put St. Mary's into a 19-14 lead. The Gaels' fourth-quarter tally was just good insurance. NEVADA SCORES Despiit his fine performance en both offense and defense, it was Johnson who made the bob-bit which set up the first Nevada score. Taking the opening kick- off, which was bounding around tha Gael 20-yard line, he went; up to the 30 before being hit He fumbled there and Graf covered on the St Mary's 36.
