Nov. (Choo Choo) Justice, the Asheville flyer, sparked North Carolina to a 21-0 victory today over its arch athletic rival, Duke, dispelling the gloom of a rainy, cold day here before 56,500 fans in Duke Stadium, North Carolina alumni all season have been waiting for Justice to gallop, and today the Tar Heel aggregation got Its reward double. Not only did Justice go for a brace of touchdowns, but he also flipped a touchdown pass to end Bob Cox, subbing for Mike Rubish, for a third. That did the old grads good, but they got a big boot out of seeing a Carl Snavely-coached team partially avenge a Wade-coached triumph of 25-0 In 1935. That year the Blue Devils dispelled bowl hopes of the Tar Heels with a rousing upset posted under much the same as today's weather conditions: rain, cold, and mud.

There was no denying the Tar Heels their triumph today in spite of inspired play by a crippled Duke West Virginians Win Over Temple After 4 Losses MORGANTOWN, W. Va, Nov. 22 West Virgin University pounded Temple into submission here today 21 to 0 with the hard running Rex Bumgardner and Walt Malyk, coupled with the bullet-like passing of Tome Keane clicking in a winning combination. The victory before 10,000 spectators in Mountaineer Field, ended a four-game loosing streak and wound up West Virginia's home season. Putting up an almost Invincible defense that held Temple to net gain of 16 yards.

West Virginia scored touchdowns in the first, sec-end and fourth periods and never was seriously threatened by the Owls. Bumgardner personally engineered "the first starting from Temple 29 midway in the Initial frame. Bob Fought intercepted Joe Nejman's forward on the 34 and returned to the 24, but a penalty for too much time moved it back to the 29. Bumgardner carried the ball on six straight plays, the last time plunging through a big right tackle hole for the touchdown. Dick Hoffman came in to boot the first of three perfect extra points.

Jfotre DameSwamps Tulane Green Wave Under 59-6 Maelstrom Before 57,000 1 WILLIAMSBURG INDIANS TAKE OHIOANS, 20-0 WTIXIAMSBURG, Nov. 23 T) William and Mary's bowl-hopeful Indians failed to display their usual bone-crushing efficiency this" afternoon but they still had enough to flatten Bowling Green Univer sity's onenslve-ineifective Falcons, 20 to 0, for their eighth triumph of the season. A thoroughly chilled, sparse gathering of 2,000 looked on as the rough, tough Braves, paced by hard-running Buddy Lex, of Newport News, tallied in the first, sec-, ond and last quarters to defeat the visiting Ohloans, who never offer ed a serious offensive threat. Bob Steckroth, William and Mary's spectacular end, stumbled over for the first Indian marker as the first quarter ran out. After taking a bullet pass from tailback Jack Bruce on the five-yard strip, the Braves increased the margin to 13 to 0 shortly after the second period began with a 24-yard skirt of left end by wing back Henry Blanc.

The contest was stowed away in the third when Lex swept around right end from the three. Rough On DefeflM Bowling Oreen, though unexpectedly rugged on defense when the chips were down, never mangled to crack up its attack and penetrated William and Mary territory only three times during the afternoon. The handful of spectators, who braved the wintry breezes in the expectation of seeing the Indians further their bowl aspirations with lopsided victory, had to wait a disconcertingly long time before they got what they came for. Coach Rube McCray's team, perhaps a little over-confident, had a rough time finding the answer to the stout defense thrown up by the Falcons and the opening pen riod was almost history when they finally huffed and puffed within hailing distance of the pay window, but when they did start rolling, it was something to watch. Taking over on their own 21 after a quick kick by quarterback Russ Maples, the Braves took Just eight plays to move the rest of the way, with tailback Jack Bruce accounting for 38 yards of the distance on end sweeps.

The ball was on the 16 when Bruce flipped his payoff- pass to Steckroth, who 6nagged it on the five, pulled away from one tackier and fell across the goal line. Stan Magdziak. booting from the 17 after the In-r dians had been penalized for hold- ing, made the point good and that, as subsequent happenings proved, was the ball game.

22 Michigan's Big Nine champs cli maxed their first unbeaten, untied football campaign in 15 years with three smashing touchdown marches today to beat a determined Ohio State eleven, 21 to 0 for their ninth straight victory of the season. Five times in the first half the Wolverines pushed inside the Buck eyes' 25 yard line but only did they maintain the drive to score and highly-favored Michigan led by only 7-0 at half time before turning on the power in the last half for two more touchdowns. But the power that had swept the Wolverines, through twelve straight victories since mid-season last year netted a first period score on Chalmers (Bump) Elliott's four yard end sweep and halfback Bob Chappuis, the Toledo, Ohio, pass-pitcher, and fullback Jack Weisen-burger crossed the last white stripe once each in the last half on short runs. Michigan Dominates Play Alt.hnuch the Buckeves rose UD on defense at key points to keep the score down and avert a "widely expected rout, Michigan was a run away winner on statistics, grinding out 24 first downs to the Buckeyes' nine and gaining 450 yards running and passing to Ohio Slates u. channuiji.

the crowd of 11,000 that braved a raw, at times moist, afternoon was rewarded by a whiz-bang offensive battle that crammed all the scoring into the first three furous periods. After a 62-yard drive was stalled by a stubborn Auburn defense in the opening minutes, Clemson broke into the scoring column, propelled by the magic in Gage's arm. He leatured a 43 yaroTdrive with a 17-yarder to end Hank Walker, his favorite target, and then connected for 26 and a score as wlngback Ray Mathews gathered in the ball.

22 Ph Washington and Lee University uncorked a final Deriod 43- yard touchdown drive to win a see-saw 18 to 13 victory over a fiehtinsr University of Delaware eleven today before 7,500. Paced by Brian Bell, a nam plunging fullback, and Dick Working, who did some brilliant passing, the Generals took a two-touchdown lead in the second period, momentarily lost the lead when the hens struck back in the third and final periods and then marched for the pay-off six-pointer. Washington and Lee drove 61 yards after receiving the opening fickoff as Bell and Jim Stark completely befuddled the Blue Hens with a dazzling display of off-tackle running. The Generals ground out four first downs before Bell crashed over from the two yard line. Delaware was held for downs on the one after Fred Sposato recovered a W.

L. fumble by Charlie Harrington on the 18 in the closing minutes of the first period. In the late part of the second quarter Washington and Lee traversed 32 yards to the end zone after taking over following a punt by Joe Coady from his own 6 yard line.

A 28 yard pass from Mariano Stal-loni to Ernie Mettenet moved the ball to the 30 from where a series of running plays in which Stal-loni and Bill-Nash provided most of the distance to the goal line.

Stalloni bulled across, from the one and Stan Bilskl booted the extra point. With two minutes of the quarter remaining Bob Glisson grabbed a Harrington fumble on the Generals' 36 from where Muhlenberg scored on the third play of the final period. Stalloni again cracked over from the one on fourth down. Bilski's place kick again cracked over from the one on fourth down. Bilski's place kick was wide but the blue hens moved ahead 13-12.

The Generals required only 12 plays following the ensuing kick-off to sew up the victory. An important play in the drive was a 22-yard pass from Bell to Jim Carpenter for a first down on the 11 and the same paid also engineered the scoring play from the four. Delaware could not move out of its own territory for the remainder of the game.

Tar Heels Score A few minutes later in the period the Tar Heels struck again, this time from 59 yards out. Walt Pupa flipped a 20-yard pass to Art Welner who lugged the ball to the Duke 16. On the next play, Jim Camp took a reverse to the Duke one-yard line, and then Justice rifled a chest-high pass for a touchdown to Cox, standing in the end zone. The third touchdown came early in the third on some nice running by Justice after he had helped pace his teammates for 59 yards. The drive opened with an 18-yard flat zone pass from Pupa to Justice who was knocked out of bounds on the Duke 41.

Justice passed to Cox for a first down at Duke 30, and then Jim Camp, on a reverse, ran to the ten yard line. Two line plays by Justice gained four, and one pass by Pupa fell incomplete. Then Pupa drilled a short behlnd-the-line pass to Justice who eluded three would-be tacklers in racing for a score, The final score, a 14-yard place-kick for a field goal by Cox, came after a 44-yard march In the third. Justice set the stage by ramming his right tackle for 18 yards. Art Welner, on an end around, ran to a first down at the Duke 12.

Justice made four at guard, and Welner lost a yard after taking a Justice lateral. A pass from Justice to Winer was incomplete. Field Goal Added Here the Tar Heels were penalized five yards for delaying the game as they deliberated in the huddle on their next and fourth-down play. Apparently his strategy was sound, for Cox, a Memphis (Tenn.) flanker, calmly booted a field goal with Walt Pupa holding. Cox, usually a splendid extra-point artist, today failed In three efforts, but his field goal points compensated.

Today's victory also marked the third time that a North Carolina football team has beaten Duke in the Blue Devils' stadium. The first came in 1929 by 48-7, and the second by a Ray Wolf-coached team, 14-6, in 1937. The victory clinched the Southern Conference title for William and Mary, beaten by the Tar Heels, 13-7, In Williamsburg, Va earlier this Conference title in 1946 with a 22-7 season.

Coach Jim Tatum's Terrapins, rated In pre-game predictions to lose by at least two touchdowns, took command from the start and were never headed. They completely outplayed the Commodores until the last 15 seconds of the final qualter when Coach RedT Sanders men put over their lone score. It is estimated there are 65 million people in the French colonial empire. CHARLOTTESVILLE, Nov.

22. WV-Until today, Virginia's Caval- iers had ft dream of stacking up their finest football record In a long, long time. Today, they found out that was all they were doing just dreaming. For today, North Carolina State's vastly-improved Wolfpack reached Into the cold haze that shrouded Scott Stadium and plucked a 7-3 victory over the Virginians, previously defeated only by vaunted Pennsylvania. The end came with exactly six and one-half -minutes remaining in the battle.

A fumble apparently the break the Wolfpack had been waiting for did it. The 20,000 fans had more or less relaxed to the thought that the Cavaliers were going to roll after George Grimes, a Virginia halfback, had raced wide to the right and scooted 18 yards after breaking away from three would-be tacklers. Coach Art Guepe Inserted Bruce Bailey Into the lineup In place of Grimes, and the first thing the long-striding Calif ornlan did was to fumble. Freshman George Musser sprawling on the leather for State on the Cavalier 38. Virginia Immediately drew a five-yard penalty for delaying the game With Oscar Bozeman and Gwynn Fletcher alternating at lugging the pigskin, the Wolfpack needed only five plays to go the remaining 33 yards.

Fletcher punched out the last three yards, and fullback Leslie Palmer split the uprights with a placement for an unnecessary extra point. The Virginians had moved ahead in the bitter struggle midway in the third chapter when Cavalier end Bob Weir, of Maplewood, N. pounced Into the State backfield to knock down Palmer, who had gone back Into punt formation behind his own goal and was scanning the dreary atmosphere for a pass receiver.

J. B.

Proctor, a passer de luxe, and Hal Llttleford, a runner of note, teamed up with some excellent support from all their mates to ruin what would have been Kentucky's best record since 1909. Llttleford, a sophomore, maneuvered in the muddy going for a 20-yard scoring masterpiece late in the final period to break a second-half stalemate and give the Vols their 12th straight win of the series. Proctor had engineered both scoring drives with bulls eye passes, the first having come in the second quarter to lock the score at 6-6. The Vols marched 76 yards for the touchdown, but Hubert Becker, Proctor's replacement, tossed the payoff heave to Alan Fielden from the Wildcat 15.

The touchdown came on a screen toss to Jack Harris who scored from the Tennessee ten.

A tie with Rice, 7-7, in ln-tersectional play, was th eonly blot on their record. Notre Dame remains on the schedule, but the outcome will have no bearing on the Conference Rose Bowl selection.

Monk Moseley, Gilmer's sub, ran 46 yards or a Bamba tally shortly thereafter.

SOUTH BEND, Nov. 22.
