Merriman, a 200-pound ex-Navy fighter pilot who runs like a scat-back, scored three touchdowns and engineered a 72-yard drive that staved off the 5-1 underdog Broncos in the final period.

(P) Tennessee derailed Alabama's high riding Red Elephants four times in the shadow of the goal today and put together two sustained drives to dump the Rose Bowl champions from the unbeaten ranks, 12-0, before a capacity crowd of.40,-000.

For Coach Bob Neyland of the it wa3 the 36th straight regular season victory, which started before he went into the Army in 1940. Neyland's crew, with Bob Lund, a substitute tailback in a starring role, drove 46 yards to a tally in the second period and then stopped an Alabama drive in the third period at the 32 and drove back 68 yards for a second touchdown.

Lund scored both touchdowns on short plunges, the first after he had accounted for most of the yardage. MEMORIA STADIUM, BERKELEY, Oct. 19. Great runs of 78 and 43 yards by Jerry Shipkey and Jack Myers, two of the Bruins' snaking giants, saved the, day to give U.C.LA. a 13 to 6 victory over an unexpectedly strong, stubborn California eleven here today before a crowd of 65,000.

rt was a costly victory over a team that had been regarded too lightly by the Uclans, for Cal Rossi, swift little right halfback who had sparked the team in its three previous conference wins, was carried from the field with a fractured right ankle. In the final analysis the Bruins made enough mistakes to fill a season of play and Coach Frank Wickhorst's alert, hard-driving squad took full advantage of the errors. California recovered five1 of the Uclans' seven fumbles, and blocked three kicks. Glad It's Done "I'm glad we have that one out of our system," said Coach Bert LaBrucherie with a great sigh. "California, has a mighty good team." Myers set up the first Bruin touchdown in the first period with a quick break through right tackle for 43 yards to the 19-yard line.

Rosi slid through the left side and went to the 6 on the next play and from there Myers smashed across. Skip Rowland I went in and kicked the The Bruin supporters leaned back in their seats, prepared for another scoring carnage. But it never came off. Before the first period was over the Bears were right down there on the Bruin 13, threatening to score. While the Bears did not threaten again during the first half, neither did the Bruins.

Ernie Case, who suffered a broken nose in the final period, western had seized the upper hand, 14-7, in a bitter struggle. Wildcats Held The break came after Michigan had held Northwestern on the Wolverine 21-yard line. Quarterback Don Burson's fourth-down jump pass was intercepted on the 12 by Wiese, who swept downfield to the right and later-aled to Elliott on the Michigan 40, from where the speedy back sprinted 60 yards down the sideline for a touchdown. Elliott also scored the Wolverines! first touchdown late in the first period when he caught a 37-yard pass from Bob. Chap-puis in the corner of the end zone.

"Automatic Jim" Brieske converted for both of Michigan's vital extra points. Moses Chaves, took advantage of after the Bruins lost the ball again on a fumble and this time the Bears drove to the 10 before they lost the ball on downs. If there ever was a time when the Uclans needed a lift it was then, and the 215-pound right halfback gave it to them. He circled right end, stuck that great stiff arm of his in the face of three Golden Bears who folded up like empty sacks under that right hand. And, having disposed of those determined gentlemen, Tarn to Page 6, Column 4 Stanford fumbles and wild passes to set up three Bronco touchdowns.

Soon after the start of the sec ond quarter Troy drove 69 yards Tnrn to Page Cofnmn 3 One spectator who la going to regard this football game this afternoon between the Los Angeles Rams and the Detroit Lions with mingled emotions is a cattle rancher from Kansas. His name Is Jess C.

Harper, and if that fails to register in your memory, let me say he played quarter and halfback for a coach named A. A. Stagg at Chicago back in 1904 and 1905. For the record it could be further stated that he coached a couple of rather famous players named Knute Rockne and Gus Dorais at a chool called Notre Dame. accounts for his in today's contest and if Jess should lean more toward Gus' Lions I am sure Adam Walsh, who also played a little football at Notre Dame, will understand.

HARD WAY Harper takes pardonable pride in Coach Dorais because Gus and Rockne first used the forward pa3 with 'great dexterity against an Army team back in 1913, to revolutionize the game and pull the Irish from the category of being Just another midwestern team to national, prominence. "Gus and Knute," says Harper, "truly were a pair of coach's players. Although roommates and the closest of friends they differed in many ways. Everything Rock accomplished was hard earned Nothing he ever did came naturally to him. "And that includes his speaking ability.

Rock used to hate to make speeches, but he drove himself to do it and by hard work accomplished that famous polish that so many of his players sought to pattern after when they went into coaching," Jess chuckled. "Why, I used to duck luncheons just to make Rock get out and talk. BEST PASSER "Everything Gus did came a lot easier to him. His passing was remarkable and he got to know Rock so well that he could hit him almost every time with his throws. "Throwing the ball came naturally to him and I must say that he was the best passer I ever saw." Jess fedmits, however, that he has been sticking close to his ranch in the last 'several years and so he hasn't had a chance to see recovered fumbles deep in Indian territory.

Dark Horse Tallies Frank Kelly, a Bronco halfback who wasn't even listed in the line-up, also scored with a 57-yard drive over tackle behind beautiful blockine. Read 'Em and Weep 1: Michigan. 14. North Carolina. 21: Navy, Yale.

A 45-yard drive on a series of such passers as Sammy Baugh, Sid Luckman and Bob Water-field. He might change his mind after seeing today's game, although Jess just naturally has to cherish in his heart the greatness of Rock and Gus. Fred DeLano, Dorais' publicity director for Detroit, asked Harper if he ever knew about the pranks and means of making money that these two rough and ready roommates used to get credit for around the campus. One solid source of revenue required little expense. Rock and Gus had hinges put "on the ground floor window of their room and they used to charge other students so much a head for letting them in after hours when the good fathers in charge of the dormitory had locked the front door for the night.

They also tell, the 6tory about Rock keeping the room smelling like a sheep-dip factory trying to brew a creosote concoction designed to restore his hair. PLAYED FOR PAY Jess said he guessed Rock and Gus had a few special methods of making a little money to pay their way through school, but he allowed as how he wasn't much for checking up on those things in those days. After all, Harper explained, he had to resort to a subterfuge or two himself at Chicago, playing a little outlaw base-ball for a few dollars to tide him over the cold winters at Chicago. "There always was a strong rivalry between certain small towns in Iowa and Illinois in those days and these towns were willing to pay a good player a piece of change if he would join up and bolster their club for a game here or there. You always looked around like a thief, to see if anyone might recognize you, before you played.

NOT THAT YEAR "To show you how sharp Stagg was, though, I had a chance to go to Green Mountain, for the summer to play a little ball for $200 a month and expenses. That was I going to be real dough. "But one day Stagg called me in and said, 'Jess, you were not by any chance planning to go to Virginia this I assured him I had no intention of doing so. Wrhlch was the truth because I had changed my mind as of right then and there naturally. "I don't think Stagg was too sure, though, because he asked me if I wouldn't let him know where I was when I got my job for the summer, which I did." P.S.: So Harper had to be content with a $12-a-week job working in a meat packing plant that summer.
