triurQph over stubborn Southern California to give absent Irish Coach- FraVik Leahy his first undefeated season since 1941 before a capacity crowd of 56,000 at Notre Dame stadium today. As slashing and explosive as the "coachless" Irish were in piling up their eighth victory against a scorless tie with Army season, they couldn't stTM the inspired Trojans from scoring the first touchdown against Notre Dame's first stringers and making it 13 to 6 ball game until the final period. 'McGee, whose first name Leahy couldn't recall for sports writers in early practices, streaked 11 yards for the 'first Irish score in the second quarter, seconds after he gallopped 50 yards on another break-away, Longview, fireball, a 13-point Irish attack in the final period with an eight- yard payoff jaunt around end. With Leahy at home bed-ridden with a cold and "nervous exhaustion," the Irish ploughed to 26 first downs against Southern California's nine and an amazing 517 yards by rushing against 108.

Forty-five thousand spectators, attracted by the renewal of a bitter state rivalry, either held their breaths or roared for more as Don Fortier, 24-year-old Tulane freshman, threatened to pull the game out of the fire with a skillful- blend of passing and running.

He passed for three touchdowns and scored another on an 18-yard jaunt. The powerful LSU homa, unleashing ground and aerial earned them better than a point a minute, smothered the Oklahoma Aggies 73-12 today.

Scoring two touchdowns in the second quarter and one more in the final period, the Uclans finished the 1946 schedule with 10 straight wins, no ties, and a tota' of 113 points to 72 for their opponents. Thus the slate was clean for UCLA's clash in the Rose Bowl New Year's Day with the. University of Illinois, whose scouts saw little new in the free-wheeling Bruin machine today. Coach Bert Labrucherie used his best speed burners, and the Bruins rolled up yardage by the mouthful against a stubborn Corn- husker squad that never surrendered until the end. Three times the Huskers stopped the Bruins inside ten yard line, once on the one, but they could never mount a sustained drive and crossed the midfield stripe themselves but twice --the farthest to the Bruin 46 yard line.

The Uclans put on three marches that paid off. The first was good for 54 with Quarterback Ernie Case topping it off with a 25 yard pass to Left End Burr Baldwin in the end zone. The second game on a 29- yard thurst, with Fullback Jack Myers going over from the two. A 73 yard parade, with Halfback Al Hoisch going for the final five, concluded the scoring. Case had a bad day converting.

The only reason the impossible didn't happen because the "Monster and' his playmate" Doc Blanchard and Glenn Davis--set off all their sizzling fireworks in the a and the Middie kicking toes couldn't hit the bulleye. From the start of the second lalf it was Navy's ball game, as the up-to-now meek Middies, mauled and manhandled in seven straight starts up to today, the Cadets the fight of their ives.

It was a slashing, smashing aattle these fiercely fighting future Admirals put up--a fight that saw them dug in on Army's five yard line and still rolling when the clock ran out of time to put an end to what appeared the makings of one of the most amazing upsets this game of moleskin mayhem has ever NEW ORLEANS, Nov. 30-(AP)--Georgia's unbeaten, untied Bulldogs will meet North Carolina's Southern Conference champions in the' 13th annual seen. It left the 102,000 spectators hanging on the ropes and gasping as the Middies stopped B. and D. to a slow walk in the final two periods and sailed down-field for two touchdowns on their own.

President a the former artilleryman who is strictly neutral in this brawl every year, sat in his 50-yard line box on the Navy side of the field through the first half and saw the Black Knights of the Hudson pull the customers out of their seats as Davis dashed 13 yards for the first score, Blanchard bulled his way 52 yards for a second and then Davis hit Blanchard with a 27-yard pass in the end zone for a. third to give A a 21-6 edge at the a Jack Ray, the Teaxan with the threat-a-needle toe, booted the point after each one of these in Sugar Bowl football game here on Jan. 1. Officials of the Mid-Winter Spp.rts Association announced the pairings late today after some long-distance telephoning whicR followed Georgia's 35-7 thumping of Georgia Tech and the Carolina Tarheels' 40 to 14 victory over Virginia; The match had been freely predicted as the most likely Sugar Bowl combination if both teams won their games today. The game will feature a duel between two of the country's most spectacular tailbacks--Georgia's Triple-Threat All-America Candidate Charlie Trippi and North Carolina's 160-pound freshman Charlie Justice.

Georgia's Bulldogs, rated No. 3 Behind Army and Notre Dame in ast week's Associated Press poll of college football teams, is the country's only unbeaten, untied college eleven besides UCLA. Some critics have pointed to soft spots in their schedule, but today's manhandling of Georgia Tech's powerful engineers should be proof of excellence. North Carolina's Tarheels are champions of the Southern Conference, with a season's record of eight victories, one tie and one defeat. The only loss was 20-14 to the Tennessee Vols--and this was somewhat discounted by a victory over Wake Forest, which had beaten Tennessee.

Virginia Tech tied the Carolinians in their season opener, 14 to 14.

tallies. The Middies drove 82 yards between Army's first and second touchdowns for one'of their own, that put them behind only 7-6, with the second quarter started. Then they clawed and dug and inched their way 78 yards more in the third period, and finally, capitalizing on a queer quarterbacking by the usually errorless Arnold Tucker late in the third period, they clicked for 35 yards in a hurry for their last marker early in the fourth. In Reaves (Base) Baysinger, tall, slim Syracuse, N. quarterback who never did any signal-calling before the Notre Dame clash three weeks ago, and.Bill Hawkins of Richmond, fresh off the hospital list, they had the scoring punch.
