iJP) Seven Tennessee Wesleyan College students were injured, one seriously, in what McMinn Sheriff Knox Henry described as the explosion of a "large firecracker" in the bleachers at the Tennessee Wesleyan Brevard College football game here tonight. Miss Nadine Claiborne, 18. of Friendsville, was in Foree Hospital here with a serious eye injury and minor burns, hospital attendants said. Also treated at the hospital for minor injuries were Ruth Odom of Bean Station; Dean Bank. Libertv.

Tenn Johnnv Bell, Knoxville; Bonnie Caudell, Frees, Neal Bailey, Tazewell, and Noralee Aaron of estell, Va. Sheriff Henry said he and his deputies were standing "about 20 feet away from the scene of the ex plosion," addisg that his investiua-1 tion indicated it was caused by the rocket-type firecracker. Johnny Hart. Athens photographer, said he saw the missile "while it in the air, and it exploded just over the heads of a group of spectators in the bleachers." The sheriff added that firecrackers had been set off while the band paraded during the half and minutes before the blast in the bleachers. The sheriff said he would order his deputies to maintain a strict ban against firecrackers at future football games.

These are already outlawed by ordinance in Athens, he explained. Informed of the sheriff's statement in connection with the explosion, Mrs. Elizabeth A. Bru-baker, superintendent of Ritter Hall at Tennessee Wesleyan Dormitory where most of the injured students reside, said "it was a bomb that went off in the bleachers a firecracker, even a large one. could not have caused so much injury and damage.

"Many of the injured students received burns from flaming sweaters and one girl received a bad cut on the head which required three stitches," she said. Lexington Triumphs LEXINGTON, Oct. 25.

A') Louisiana State's high-powered but sputtering football team squeaked out a 19 to 13 football victory tonight over a Vanderbilt eleven which found an offensive punch and threatened until the last moment.

Rip Collins saved the game for the Tigers, to the deliht of a home coming crowd of some 40.000 with final-minute kick that travelled 63 yards to go out of bounds on the six. Even then, the Vandy eleven which scorcvi almost as many points tonight as it had put over in four previous games, almost pulled a Merriwell finish on Jamie Wade's passes. The Commodores, who trailed 19 to 6 at the half, had reached the Louisiana 44 when Wade- was dumped for a bis loss on the last play. It was a surprising performance for the Vandy eleven, which A'' ufas and unscored upon previously this year, the Black Knizhts from West Point found themselves helpless tr, stem the light blue once Gene Rossides, Columbia's brilliant quarterback, began throwing bulleyes to an equally brilliant receiver, End Bill Swiacki. Less than seven minutes remained to play when the Lions drove 67 yards down the turf of Baker Field to score their third touchdown and Ventain Yablonski, their fullback, cleaved the posts with a kick for extra point which gave the Cadets their first reverse since Navy turned them back in Novem ber, 1943.

A desperate attempt by Army to drive to a score in the closing minutes came to nothing when Lou Kusserow of Columbia intercepted a pass "by Arnold Galiffa near mid-field. When the game ended and the crowd surged onto the field, the Lions were deep in Army territory again id giving the rattled Cadets no surcease. Rossides, the individual hero of the amazing triumph, gave probably as dazzling exhibition of the passing art as ever was seen on any field. He connected on 18 out of 27 throws and accounted for most of the 2H3 yards gained by the Lions through the air. The Cadets found it virtually impossible to knock down his lonk pegs to Swiacki, who made several diving catches that were something to see.

In all. Coach Lou Little's team completed 20 of 30 passes, and Swiacki caught eight of them for 138 yards. In the decisive second half the light blue completed a phenomenal 13 of 15 aerials while they were putting on their two great scoring drives of 60 and 67 yards. Columbia's total yardage vas 363 to Army 34.. The losers, still badly needing a big league passer to replace Arnold Tucker, picked up only 42 yards through the air on four completions.

The Lions, beaten by Yale and Pennsylvania in their last two outings, scarcely were conceded a chance against Coach Earl Blaik's operatives. The odds-makers had rated the Plainsmen favorites by two touchdowns, though those who had seen Columbia's offense clicking at its best had doubted the Light Blue would be held scoreless. Army made the experts look good at the outset by pushing 55 yards for a score the first time they got hold of the ball. Galiffa plunged it across from the one-yard mark. Later in the first period the Cadets drove down to the Columbia nine-yard line.

Midway of the second quarter the Plainsmen banged their way 47 yards for another score. Rip Rowan going across from the one after Bill Gustafson had unreeled a pretty 27-yard run. Jack Mackmull place kicked both extra points to put Army in front 14-0. It was immediately after the second Army score that the Lions indicated that they were not going to submit tamely. Rossides raced the kickoff back 18 yards, and then began to toss passes.

In six plays Columbia devoured 69 yards, with Kusserow darting five yards right through the Columbia line for me score. The Lions nearly tallied gain a few minutes later after recovering an Army fumble on the latter's fouryard stripe. Kusserow fumbled but went to the one on first down. Joe Williams, had not been ready for the play. Army braced and held on the next three plays, and Yablonski.

missed a field goal try from 15 yards. On the third pla after the Cadets took over on their own 20, Rowan scampered 83 yards during which at one time or another he shook loose from a half-dozen tack-lers and finally fled the last 50 yards down the sideline. It was after this score, which came seconds before the half ended, that Muckmull muffed his third try for extra point and. in the end, brought defeat to his team. At the time, however, there was little thought that the Cadets were heading for trouble.

Their 20-7 lead looked about the right size at the intermission, and during the third period they continued to hammer away. Once they reached the Lions' 15-yard line after a series of fine runs bv Rowan and Bill Gustafson. Just before the close of the third quarter Rossides flashed what the Cadets should have recognized as a warning light. He began hitting Swiacki and Kusserow with his pitches, and propelled his team for 55 yards down to the Army 25 before he lost his touch. But, still, it didn't look like anything serious.

The final period was young when the Lions took possession on their own 4(1 and set sail. Rossides hit Bil' Olson with two throws, and then picked up five himself on a run to reach the Army 28. His next effort was a great pass almost clear across the field and into the end zone, which Swiacki gathered in with a diving catch while hotly guarded by an Army defender. The Cadets were far from sure that the Columbia end had made the catch before his chin hit the grass, but the officials called it a touchdown. Yablonski's kick left the Lions trailing only 20-14.

An extended Army drive intervened before Rossides got another chance to test his marksmanship. The Cadets took the kickoff and, mostly on runs by Rowan and Bobby Stuart, plugged their way down to r-olumbia's 33 before they were halted and the Lions took over. Then it came. Yablonski bulled his way for 13 yards and a first down on the 46. Rossides.

faking a pass, sprinted to hb left and picked 21 more yards and another first down. He tried it again and reached Army's 28. Then he pulled back his right arm once more and spiralled the ball into Swiacki's arms only four yards from the Cadet goal line. Rossides raced around end to the tw-o, and then handed the ball to Kusserow to take va Hearer Rose Bowl BERKELEY. Oct.
