Halfback Ralph Moody, individual star of the day, scored on an 82-yard punt return that fired up the Jawyawks for a lively battle.

Five of the Bruins shared in the touchdown making fullback Bob Davenport, halfbacks Jim Decker, Doug Bradley, Gerry McDougall and ponderous Jack Elena, a tackle. Davenport started it off early in the game, going over from one yard out after UCLA had recoverd a Kansas fumble on the 23. And when Decker followed with a 17-yard jaunt, climaxing a 56-yard drive a few minutes later, it looked like the Bruins were out for an almost unimpeded scamper. It looked even more like it when they intercepted a pass and Bradley promptly went over for the third score. But Moody's long punt return and Dick Reich's conversion put new life into the Kansans.
