White, president of the Wisconsin State baseball league since Its organization in 1939, an nounced Saturday that he will not accept reelection as head cl the circuit when club owners meet at Appleton Nov. 15 for their annual fall meeting. White, who has also headed the Northern league since It was form ed in 1935. explained that press of other business has made it necessary to give up the reins of the Class circuit.

He has advised club owners to seek, other candidates for the post. Press of work in directing operations of the White Machine Works, handling the affairs of the Northern league, and serving on the ex ecutive committee of the National Association of Minor leagus prompted White's decision to relinquish the State league post. White has tried to give up the Badger circuit leadership in previous years, he said, but had been persuaded to keep the position because of problems within the league and problems created by the war. Now that baseball has returned to normal and the league is on its feet with a good financial balance. White decided that it was time to step down.

Unlike the Nortnern league where he can dp some, supervision by remaining at home and seeing games played by the Eau Claire club," White must travel to Wausau, Wisconsin Rapids or farther to watch State league games.

As usual, it was Bobby Layne's good right arm! that set the Texas scoring machine in motion, but hard rushing by the Owls forced the Longhorns to stick to the ground for most of their gains.

Spectaclular defensive work by Longhorn Left End Max Baum-gardner helped Texas immeasurably and Baunigardner was the lad who took Layne's pass to lunge across for Texas' first marker on a play good for 18 yards. The Longhorns picked up steam again in the final period with Right Halfback Jim Canad? and Fullback Tom Landry piling through the line for short, steady gains. The payoff came on a three-yard drive by Can-ady over his right tackle to score standing up. Layne used the speed of Left Halfback Byron GUlory and the hard driving of Canady and Landry to give the Longhorns 167 yards on the ground, against 96 for Rice. He connected on five of 14 passes for 60 yards.

Twice during the up-and-down battle, Mississippi matched Arkansas Touchdowns and went ahead on the proficiency of Bobby Oswalt's point-converting toe. But with six minutes remaining and the Razorbacks trailing, 14 to 12, Scott unleased a 41-yard pass to End Oug Canada to reach the enemy's 26. Then he sallied 23 yards to the three. Stacey Looney plunged over.

Kenny Holland kicked the extra point. The Irish line though gave evidence of the improvement promised two weeks ago by Coach Frank Leahy. Both ends, Martin and Leon Hart, guard Marty Wendell and tackle Ziggy Czaroboskl were -pouring through the Iowa line at will. They kept the Hawkeye's ace passer, Al Di Marco, on the run all afternoon. Iowa, as its passes stopped, made only four sorties into Notre Dame's territory.

Once, after Emlen Tun-nell romped 65 yards to the Notre Dame 10. the Hawks offensive died on the Irish two. Otherwise, the nearest they could approach the goal was the Notre Dame 20.
