Big Leon Hart took in two of Layne 's scoring passes and Doak Walker snared the third. The Packers put on a stretch drive for the 18.800 chilled fans with two last period touchdowns, but Layne had two up his sleeve for the same quarter.

Wisconsin Wins In Final Minute Game Played Under Blizzard Conditions Madison 1ST The Wisconsin football team, 6-0 victor over Indiana Saturday in a Big Ten thriller marked by snow, wind, subfreez-ing temperatures and a last-minute pass that paid off, today began priming for its intersectional battle with Pennsylvania. The Quakers, who travel to Camp Randall Saturday, defeated the Badgers, 20-0, last year at Philadelphia. In the Indiana game, Wisconsin's top passer, Johnny Coatta, connected on a 36-yard toss to Bill Hutchinson with 58 seconds left for a hard earned victory.

A near-capacity crowd of 51,000 braved temperatures in the 20s, driving snow and 25-mile-per-hour winds. The victory gave the Badgers a record of three wins, one loss and one tie in conference play this season. "Shot in Dark" Coach Ivy Williamson, commenting on the winning play, said, "I suppose you could call it a shot in the dark." Pleased with the way his offensive brigade operated on the snowy turf, Williamson added, "we must have been getting awfully good blocking in front to pick up 267 yards rushing. But our fumbles hurt. Many of them came after we made good gains." Wisconsin fumbled 10 times, with the Hoosiers recovering five.

Ivy praised Capt. Jim Hammond, senior from Appleton. "Jim is quite a boy," he said. "He did a great job on offense, picking up 86 yards and his punting was especially good in the second half." Hammond averaged 36 yards in seven punts. The Badger defense held Indiana to 91 yards in 41 carries.

Williamson expects Pennsylvania to be one of the toughest defense challenges. Indiana Line Tough "Pennsylvania will have some fine front line operators and a good all-round team." he said. Before Coatta and Hutchinson came through with their final desperation pass. Wisconsin had completed only two aerial attempts. The Badgers threatened -often with a powerful ground attack despite the slippery gridiron, but fumbles and a stubborn Indiana line that held when its goal was threatened pre-j vented a tally.

The Hoosiers got beyond midfield on only three occasions and their greatest advance was to the Badger 42 early in the game. They were pulled out of trouble frequently by the fine punting of Florian Helinski, freshman from Hurley. Field Goals Fail Bill Lane. Wisconsin defensive back, gave the Badgers the break that resulted in the touchdown. He received Jerry Ellis' fumble on the Indiana 31 with one minute, 13 seconds to go.

Wisconsin tried two field goals in the second half. Coatta's first effort from the 11 in the third period was wide to the posts. His second try from the 26 in the final period was high enough but hit the goal posts. Williamson said the team members suffered only the usual bumps and bruises.

Sunday Lima, Peru Antonio Frontado, 168, Peru, knocked out Enrique Jo-ver, 166, Buenos Aires, 7. Freshman Joe Homing of Maryland thrilled a homecoming day crowd by reeling off a 101-yard run after intercepting a Missouri pass. He caught the ball, took one step into the end zone and took off for the other end zone. His effort was only a little longer, however, than that of Val Joe Walker of Southern Methodist. Walker also sprints on th Mustang track team and he mult have heard a starter's gun yesterday when he caught a Texas punt.

He started fast and kept going for 92 yards with the Texas team a distant "second." They should call it the "Hall of Rain" game at New Brunswick, N. next year instead of Hall of Fame. Saturday's ceremonies in connection with the Hall of Fame ceremonies there drew plenty of rain, just as last year's first Hall of Fame game. Rutgers Coach Harvey Harmon doesn't care, though. His boys beat Fordham Saturday, 13-7, and Brown by 15-12 in last year's rain.

was outstanding in thwarting Washington's offensive. His fierce line charging broke up Washington's running and passing attack. He also recovered a fumble, place kicked three conversions and passed for another extra point as Oregon State romped, 40-14.

Three times he produced coffin-corner kicks, punting once to the six and twice to the three.

Brad Myers, Bucknell, halfback scored three of his club's four touchdowns to bring his season's total to 13. He performed brilliantly on a muddy field as Bucknell defeated Temple, 27-7, for its 11th straight victory. Paul Giel, Minnesota, halfback galloped 61 yards for one touchdown, plunged three yards for another, booted a pair of conversions and chalked up 179 yards on the ground as the Gophers battled Iowa to a 20-20 deadlock. Bill Reichardt, Iowa, fullback spearheaded his team to a 20-20 tie with Minnesota. With Iowa trailing, 20-0, going into the fourth period, he racked up two touchdowns and two extra points.

He tops the Nation in yardage gained with 1,279 yards in 185 carries for a 6.9 average and he also heads the collegiate scoring list with 17 touchdowns. Lawrence Is Sure of Tie For 1st Place (By the Associated Press) Lawrence bucked a snowstorm for one touchdown Saturday to beat Monmouth, 7-0, and snare at least half of the Midwest Conference football title. A victory over second division Coe in their season finale next Saturday will give the unbeaten Vikings from Appleton the complete championship.

Ripon remained in contention for a first place tie by whipping Carle-ton, 13-0; Knox beat Coe, 6-0, and Grinnell edged Cornell, 7-6, in the other Saturday games. Lawrence punched out its touchdown the second time it got the ball. Bruce Bigford, Carl Shields and Carl Stumpf collaborated in toting the pigskin from the Vikes 26 to Monmouth's 34. From there Bigford whipped a pass to Charles Cianciola who skittered through the Monmouth secondary and scored. After that the game was an exchange of punts on the snow swept gridiron at Monmouth, 111.

The Viking defense didn't let the Scots penetrate deeper than the Lawrence 44-yard line. Ripon pulled its victory out of a snowstorm, too. Tom Potter caught an 11-yard touchdown pass from Glen Butters with nine seconds to go in the first half. In the fourth quarter fullback Bill Brennen plowed over from the two for the Red-men's second tally. When Notre Dame defeated Detroit in football recently it marked the first time the Fighting Irish had played a night game in 63 years.

night, the Boston Bruins licked the Chicago Blackhawks, 4-2, and took over second place from the idle Toronto Maple Leafs.

Hank Lauricella, Tennessee halfback tallied two touchdowns, passed for another and set up a final score with a pass against North Carolina, as Tennessee rolled to a 27-0 victory. Gerry McGinley, linebacker was a defensive stalwart, despite his team being upset by William Mary, 20-12. Taking part in at least one-half of Penn's tackles, he also recovered a fumble to set up Penn's first touchdown and his pass interception led to the other score.

Jim Cordial, Oregon State, end rinehurst, N. C. The crating job Arthur Lacey, non-playing captain of Great Britain's Ryder Cup golf team, had hoped to have done on the international trophy has been postponed. Uncle Sam's professionals saw to that yesterday when they ran off with six of the eight singles matches and tied another to clinch the two-day competition by a xz to 2V2 score, second highest margin since cup play began in 1927. When the English arrived in the country two weeks ago Lacey said they had brought the best-balanced, finest conditioned squad ever to cross the Atlantic.

This was to be the year they'd break the 16-year spell the Americans had held over them in this biennial test. But U. S. Captain Sam Snead touched off the winning spark with a flurry of bridies and pars and his tournament-tested mates quickly fell in line with some strong play that made a shambles of the competition. Snead Cards 67 Snead handed Pinehurst Country Club's 7.007-yard course's par 72 a five-stroke lacing with a morning 67 to shoot four holes ahead of Max Faulkner, British open title-holder.

In the afternoon Sammy was one under for 15 holes to close out the match, 4 and 3. Hopping on the band wagon for the United States were Open champion Ben Hogan of Fort Worth, Jackie Burke of Houston, Jimmy Demaret of Ojai, Lloyd Man-grum of Niles, 111., and Stewart (Skip) Alexander of Lexington, N.

(Dutch) Harrison, who was stopped by a heavy cold, lost to Arthur Lees, 2 and 1. It was Lees, teaming with Charles Ward, who gave the invaders their lone foursome victory over Oliver and Henry Ransom of St.

Andrews, 111. Alexander Wins Hogan was a 3 and 2 winner o-ver Ward in Ben's initial appearance as cup singles performer. Burke, at 28 the youngest player on either team, won 4-up from Jimmy Adams. Demaret raised his personal cup score to six victories without a setback after a 2-up struggle with little David (Dai) Rees, a veteran of the 1937 British team. Mangrum, the year's leading money winner, battled long-hitting Harry Weetman and a 102-degree temperature, coming off the winner, 6 and 5.

Alexander, regarded as a gamble in view of the badly burned hands he received in a near-fatal plane crash over a year ago, won by the largest margin, 8 and 7, over John Panton. Rangers Hold True to Form, Blow 2 Leads (By the Associated Press) The New York Rangers today were buried deeper in the National Hockey League cellar and all because, they can't hold a lead. The Rangers have been playing good hockey all season, but usually for the first two periods. Then they weaken and go down. That's how it was again last night, as the Detroit Red Wings won out over Neil Colville's New Yorkers, 4-2.

The Broadway Blues took the lead twice on goals by Wally Her-gesheimer and Hy Buller. But the Wings tied it up each time on tallies by Marty Pavelich and Fred Glover. Then, Vic Stanziuk slammed home a goal for the Wings at 11:07. Finally, Gordie Howe poked another one through in the last minute of play with the Ranger goal unattended. In the only other game of the is the big one.

Still, no school has completely stopped Johnny Karras. so there is no reason to think that Ohio State will. The weather bogged down operations for the offensive minded II-lini Saturday and as a result they, had to settle for a 7-0 victory over defending Michigan. The score came on a pass from Tom O'Con-; nell to Red Smith in the final 65 seconds. Before that, Illinois did not advance inside the Michigan 22.

Stanford halted Washington State. 21-13. In the Southwest Conference, where they're in their annual merry muddle for the Cotton Bowl spot on New Year's Day, the team to beat this week is Texas Christian. From Texas, to Southern Methodist, to Baylor to Texas Christian. Sounds like a triple play, but that's about how the favorites have come and gone.

Rough Road Ahead Uneasy is the head that wears the crown in the Southwest Conference, as Baylor found out Saturday. TCU whipped Baylor, 20-7. and now the Horned Frogs are the only undefeated team in the conference, though they've lost to outsiders. But TCU still has to play Texas and Rice, so there's no reason to get excited. Texas showed it was not ready to throw in the towel by hanging a 20-13 defeat on Southern Methodist, while Arkansas upset Texas A and 33-12.

Rice and Texas each have lost only one conference game, which makes their games with Texas Christian all the more important. Rice beat Pitt. 21-13. in a non-league game Saturday. port Roundup BY HUGH FULLERTON JR.

As might be expected, low scores abounded. Scoreless ties included River Falls vs. Milwaukee and Olivet vs. Ferris. Lehigh and Muhlenberg came up with one of those "pitchers' battle" scores.

Lehigh won, 3-2, on Walt Trillhaase's field goal. Those three pointers also provided the victory margin for Ohio State 3-0 over Northwestern), Alabama (16-14 over Georgia) and Mississippi State (10-7 over.
