4. The crunching power and slithering peed of New Hampshire'! ground attack brought the Wildcat a 21 to 7 victory over Connecticut here today and with It the champlon- ship of the Yankee Conference, They were an eager bunch, these lads from Durham who have yet to Jose a football game in six starts this season. They, were talented and durable and clever and some times thye were rough. They spotted me uujnn team a touch down in the opening minutes of the game, evened the score- exactly 30 seconds later and then pro- ceeaca to hatter their courageous opponent into submission with dazzling display of hard-running rootpau. Slippery mm a Groaned I'lr It rained from start to finish and the ball was as slippery as a greased pig but the Wildcats lived up to their nicknames and that bow they won the game.

There was animal-like fury in their attacks as they cut through Connecticut's determined defenders for total of 364 yards by rushing Ana aerensiveiy they were even better, limiting the Huskies to 106 yards, a good portion of which was yielded in the late moments of the fourth quarter with New Hamp- nire leading by two touchdowns. Fists were thrown and words wen exchanged in anger all through the rugged encounter but the ensuing penalties hurt New Hampshire more than Connecticut. Once the Wildcats reached the Uconn three-yard line only to be turned back ytwo successive pen alties and lose what appeared to be certain touchdown. The score was still tied at 7-7 late in the third quarter when two more penalties set the New Hampshire lads back 30 yards. They had the ball exactly on the 50 yard line, first down and 40 yards to go and they made the first down.

They made it on sheer grit and determination against a Uconn team that was so weary and bruised, it could hardly rise io meet the assault. Wavering- Line Of Defense The Wildcats went on to score the tie-breaking touchdown, and then added the clincher several minutes later on four staggering mssnes into Jonnecticut a waver lng line of defense. Somehow the Huskies gathered enough strength after these two knockout punches to put together pair or serious threats in the waning minutes of the game but both of these fizzled out mainly because the sting had been ripped out of their offensive. Dick Doming, 'a low running piledriver with sufficient speed in his legs to outrun Connecticut's secondary defenders once he got into the did most of the damage. Jack Bowes, another slippery line smasher, and Bob Du-rand.

an outside runner who set up the second New Hampshire tally, helped out Immeasurably when Dewing wasn't on the rampage. Fancier Accurate Connecticut didn't have much of an attack actually. The Huskies were on the defensive most of the game, fighting desperately to noia off the persistent and damaging Wildcat thrusts. Only in the fourth quarter when Dom Rosa and Joe Bettencourt broke loose on a pair of scintillating conns give their supporters reason to cheer. It was almost too wet to pass but.

Unable to gain consistently on the ground, Connecticut tried 15 aerials. That they completed even or these is a tnbute to the accurate throwing of Irv Panciera and the glue fingered catches of his receivers. The game was only two minutes and 10 second old when Connecti cut had a touchdown. It came with stunning suddenness when three hard charging Uconn line men broke through to block Walt Keany's attempted punt on the New Hampshire 31 yard line. "The ball bounded high into the air and sailed into the end zone where Dick Maslar fell on it for the tally.

Matt Johnson came into the game to boot the extra point and give the Huskies a 7-0 advantage. Dewing Breaks Loose The equalizer came immediately after the ensuing kickoff which was run back to the New Hampshire 41. A 15 yard penalty on the play placed the ball on Connecticut's 46 and then the dynamic Dewing took a handof slid through a tiny opening at left guard burst into the secondary and outran everybody into the end zone. Amos Townsend's conversion tied the score at 7-7. i For the remainder of the first half, New Hampshire pounded away relentlessly at the Connecti cut line, ir Dewing and Bowes weren't ripping off yardage through the middle, Durand was campering around the ends.

But the penalties were numerous and the Wildcats found themselves thwarted time and again. However, late in the third quarter the Durham drivers asserted their superiority. They took over on their own 31 yard line and in nine jarring, crashing plays found themselves with a first down on tha Uconn 20.

American International College of Springfield, an up-and-coming New England gridiron power tutored by probably the youngest head coach in the nation, beat the Cardinals, 25-7 in the mud and the rain and did it in a fashion that spelled complete superiority in every department of play. The Bay State squad coached by Tommy 'Chip' Gannon, a. Harvard back as recently at two years ago, generated tremendous power out of its single wingback attack and marched up and down the field to notch Its fifth successive victory in the wake of a season-opening setback.

It was Wesleyan third setback against one win and two ties and was inflicted before only a few hundred hardy partisans of the two schools Last fall when Wesleyan's amaz ing post-war winning streak came to an end, the Cardinals were twice defeated by larger margins than today score, but neither was as decisive as the Springfield squad's today. The conditions, of course, favored straight power and the single wing-back style with a minimum of ball- handling. But the heavier visitors had to run against an 8-3 defense and they. did.v They also passed, although one aerial effort was turned into Wesleyan's score, and their kicking, what little they had to do. was also superior.

Wesleyan, vastly inferior in manpower, couldn't move the ball at all until the last period, yet held a 7-0 lead until the first play of the second period. The brief ad- Herb Johnson Recovers Fumble, Steals Pass As Philadelphia, Nov. 4. (Pi An unsung defensive halfback, Herbert Johnson, set Army's football offensive in motion today and the nation's No. 2 football team ground out a 28 to 13 victory over Pennsylvania to run the Cadets unbeaten streak to 26 games.

Johnson recovered a Penn fumble to pave the way for the first touchdown and made the first interception of a pass by Francis (Reds) Bagnell this season. Bagnell ran his streak of non-interceptions to 88 before Johnson spoiled things. Pennsylvania battled Army oh even terms through the first two periods, trailing only 7-6 'at half time. Then Army struck explo. sively for two quick touchdowns, one on a short pass thrown by Blaik and the other on a 29 yard run by Eugene Filipski.

After Penn rallied for a sec ond touchdown, Filipski put the game on ice in the fourth period with a 73-yard gallop. An almost capacity crowd of 78,000 saw the game in alternat ing' sunlight and gloom, it was the biggest day of the year here and the first at virtual capacity since the 1943 Army game. Penn sylvania, a video pioneer, televised the game as it has done all its games since 1937, Penn Drive 83 Yard Johnson, a little 170-pounder, played a terrific game on the Army defensive squads as did Ray mond Muiavasl, the sensational Army sophomore making his first appearance or the season. John son intercepted two of Bagnell's passes, and Don Beck pulled down another to smear the Pennsyl vanian's record with a vengeance Bagnell's mark of 88 passes with' out interception in a season, how ever, is a national collegiate rec ord. Johnson recovered Glenn Ad ams' fumble on the 42 yard line in the first period to spark Army after a slow start.

Frank Fischl passed left handed to Dan Fold berg for 24 yards and then made 16 yards at tackle to put the ball on the one yard line from where Vic Pollock carried over. Penn came back with a vicious 33 yard drive right through Army's line the second period, Alan Corbo carrying over from one foot away after bearing the brunt of the march. This, too, was started with the recovery of a fumble Allan Power picking the ball up after it squirted out of Jim Cain's arms. The game had been widely her alded as Army's second real test of the year the first having been the Cadets' 27-6 victory over Michigan. Pennsylvania, ranked fifteenth nationally, had only lost one game, and that to powerful California 14-7.

Although Army was master throughout, its margin was close. Penn made 12 first downs to Army's 10, one good index of a Army, however, bottled up Penn sylvania's sensational Reds Bagnell. Johnson spoiled his streak of non-intercepted passes, and the big Army line limited him to only 63 yards rushing and 32 passing. Bagnell completed three out of 11 passing attempts and three were lruercepiea. isy way oi contrast, he set a national record of 490 yards rushing and passing against Dartmouth last month.

Penn earned the distinction of scoring 'as many touchdowns against Army as the Cadets' combined opponents have done all year. The Quakers made their second and last tally in the fourth period after Louis Roberts recovered Gil Stephenson's fumble on Army's 46 yard line. Corbo did yeoman work on the march and Bagnell lunged over from the five. Up to now, only Michigan and Penn State have scored on Army. Al Pollard, the husky Army sophomore who is heralded as the successor of Doc Blanchardi had rough going all afternoon but made four faultless conversions.

His best gain was only eight yards. Filipski, a comparatively unknown substitute, was the offensive star for Army. His 73 yard gallop in the fourth period started harmlessly at right tackle but he burst into the clear quickly and wasn't tackled until he reached the goal. Filipski had the astounding mark of 118 yards in five tries at the ballr-almost a 24 yard average. Indiana mieicpyiea iwr tjunu-jf aerials, two being picked oil Alan Keich.

He also set up the final touchdown by racing 48 yards to the Wesleyan 25, but then retired exhausted and Buto-va crashed over, to cap the advance from two yards out.

And the visitors were headed goalward again when the game ended. Because of the rain and mud Wesleyan gambled on an 8-3 defense for the most part and occasionally shifted to a 7-diamond setup. AIC's single wingback attack blasted the 8-3 alignment because its line was vastly superior and, once beyond the line of scrimmage, Salvucci, Butova and company went for distance against the weakened secondary.

STATISTICS such a miserable day as this when his running game was moving slowly but surely toward the Yale end zone. was the spot Clayton selected to call his first pass, his only one and the last play he was to pull from his nimble brain in the Yale Bowl. He faked to eligibles moving to his left but flipped out to the flat toward Yale's left, where Vince Marriott, the gentleman of Verona (N.

had caught Bob Spears out of position. was the 15-yard gainer that took Dartmouth to the Yale four-yard line. When the play was over, Johnny Clayton was still on the ground, where a rushing Yale defender had pinned him, and after he got up he limped around painfully. Obviously he was hurt too badly to continue. He limped off the field, and that was almost the end of Johnny Clayton's fruitful football record against Yale.

CLAYTON HURT ELIS EVEN ON WAY OUT Before he left, however, he stopped for a word with Bob Mc-Craney, who was taking over the quarterback Job. He pointed toward the Yale team, plainly making a suggestion. McCraney called his first play, a drive at Yale's left tackle.

Yale may not have been keyed to the pitch Dartmouth achieved, but the Elis fought doggedly and were a well-coached unit playing sound football against a superior foe.

It was just that Yale did not have quite enough. There was no one wearing a blue jersey who could throw a football as accurately as John Clayton and no back with enough speed to run around the concrete and steel structure of the Big Green line. Red Rolfe, an old Dartmouth man, must have understood Yale's position better than most. That's the way it was with his Tigers, too. (Concluded on Page i.
