Loyola Edges Pacific, 35-33, in Wild Battle BY JACK GJ3YER Time Staff Representative STOCKTON, Oct. 21 Loyola University's football team had its finest hour here tonight when a gutty little quarterback named Don Klosterman picked the lions up and carried them on his back to a last-minute 35-33 victory over favored College of Pacific The 30,000 fans who saw the heart-stopper, including Gov. Earl Warren, had better stop going to football games. In the first place, their hearts couldn't stand another one like this and in the second place, they'll never see another as thrilling. Earned Honor To Klosterman.

a 20-year-old junior, went the deserved! honor of winning the ball game. With just 34 seconds left, the little gamester let his heart out another notch and dove into the line from the 1-foot marker for the biggest touchdown of the night as far as the 1500 maniacal Lovola fans were concerned. Klosterman then moved to the Turn Page 5, Column 1 WHIT University team burned big holes through Notre Dame's line today for a 20-to-7 victory that guaranteed the losers their worst season since 1945, Bobby Robertson, stocky Indiana halfback, scored two of the touchdowns with the help of some of the crispest blocks ever thrown by an IU football team. Irish Sluggish Notre Dame, looking sluggish in comparison with Indiana's prancing Hoosiers, was three touchdowns behind before it showed any of the resilience generally expected of scored-on Irish teams. It was the first time Indiana had beaten Notre Dame since 1906 and the sellout crowd froJ-icked on the gridiron long after the final gun.

It was the first time Notre Dame had lost two games in one season since 1945. Its previous loss this year was to Purdue, another Hoosier Stata rival, 28 to 14. A bit. of irony was noted in Notre Dame's inability to stop the high knee drives of Robert-Turn to Page J5, Column 3 RUN FOR ROSES PACIFIC COAST Navy Slaps 27-14 Upset on Trojans The speedy Big Bed machine i was actually never in the ball game after the first scoreless quarter. The Bruins led, 14-0, at half time, increased that lead to 21-0 in the third period and were not even worried when Stanford finally managed to push across a touchdown in the last quarter.

Two sophomore substitute tailbacks, Johnny Blorenee and Ted Narieski, directed the Bruins to their best win of the year. Each passed to Ernie Stockert for touchdowns and Narieski started a forward lateral, to Bob Wilkinson to Dave Williams, for the other Bruin score. Bob Watson, teeth gritted against the pain of a sprained ankle, kicked all three extra points. South wood Scores Eric Southwood terminated, a 14-play, 79-yard, fourth-period drive by slashing off tackle from the 2-yard line for Stanford's lone touchdown. Gary Kerkorian kicked the extra point.

From a technical point of view Alert Bruins Belt Alert play, high spirit and rock-sock football, with the Bruins rating higher in these departments than Stanford, told the tale yesterday. A fired-up defense was featured by both teams, but when the chips were down the Uclans did their stuff and the Indians failed. both teams were beautifully de-fensed but when the chips were down the belting Bruins came through and the Indians failed their tests. No particular star may be tagged among the Bruins; theirs was a planned, team victory of hard-hitting, spirited individuals welded together into a fighting unit that was completely unimpressed by the odds against them. Puatiag Pbeaoai Several Bruins, however, contributed outstanding efforts.

Foremost among them was Bob Moore, regular tailback who was unable to run because of a leg injury. He could kick, though, and how! Again and again he backed the Indians against their own goal line with his accurately-placed boots. Once to the 2-yard line; again to the 8. Stanford would work out away from that fearful hole where one mis-cue could be fatal, and bang! Moore kicked them back into the hole. Bob Wilkinson played by far his best game of the year, rocking and socking, shaking himself loose to catch important passes.

In that first half he so far out- to Page it. Column 3 BY BRAVES" DYER, Time Staff Representative BALTIMORE, Oct. 21 The unhappy Trojans are looking for their first win of the 1950 season. ILLINl RALLY TO CLUB HUSKIES FROM UNBEATEN RANKS, 20-13 CHAMPAIGN, 111., Oct. 21 Hard-running Illinois gave Hurrying Hugh McElhenny a lesson in rushing, coming from behind in the final half to club Washington's Huskies, from the unbeaten ranks, 20-13, before at Memorial Stadium today.

Dick Raklovits, who scored two Illinois touchdowns, and Johnny Karras, who tallied the other, keyed a pulverizing ground attack that crumbled the Huskies, winners of four straight. McElhenny, ranked high among the nation's ball carriers, did his yeoman's best, including spearing a third-period touchdown pass from Don Heinrich to give Washington a 13-6 lead. But Hugh's best, along with "minn SHORT Heinrich's. two-touchdown passing, wasn't enough before the relentless IUini attack, which had to overcome deficits of 7-0, 7-6 and 13-6 and break a 13-13 tie in the final period. Karras smashed 383 yards' in 25 tries and Raklovits 81 in 20, compared with 72 by McElhenny in 20.

In all, Illinois cruised 388 yards on the. ground to 183 for Washington. i Washington scored first in the second period. Halfback Bill Earley grabbed a 25-yard pass In the end zone. Jim Rosenz: weig added the point and Washington led, Just before half ended, IJlinois slammed 71 yards in 10 plays to score, with Raklovits driving over from the 1-yard gains 5 yards in smash Navy center, reaches for They bad hoped to get it here today but a fired-up Navy team which also had no victories before the first whistle, outplayed our lad? while scoring a 27-to-14 triumph.

On a beautiful autumn day, before 24300 witnesses, the Middies rallied after a shaky start and got so tough in the first half it looked for a spell as if they might run the Trojans right into Chesapeake Bay. Poor Passing But Jeff Cravath's men pulled themselves together, much as they did at "Washington State, and but for an almost complete collapse of their passing game might have won or tied. In the final analysis the better" team on the field today won the game. The Middies had an edge in all statistics and there was nothing fiuky about any of their scores. Navy scored twice in the second quarter, got two short field goals by Roger Drew in the third and added a final touchdown 57 seconds before the game ended.

Jim Sears and Wilbur Robertson bagged SC's tallies, both in the closing stanza.

A 38-yard jaunt by Kar ras to Washington's 6 was the clincher.

Don Engels, a quarterback, made his first home appearance in the third quarter and prompt ly threw a pass intercepted by Earley on Washington 44. Six plays later the Huskies scored on Heinrich's 23-yard pass to McElhenny, who made a sensational catch in the corner. This time Rosenzweig missed and it was Washington, 13; Illi nois, 6.

But the Middi had other plans, took the next kickoff and never gave up the ball until they'd snagged their clinching teedee. The Midshipmen in the stands, 3500 of them, were so tickled when the final gun popped that they stormed on the field and carried both players and coaches to the dressing room.

Weak TJne Eddie Erdelatz, in his first year as head coach, said it was by far the best game his team has played this season. You can't say the same thing for the Trojans. Their line leaked like a sieve at times and none of the passers could come within yards of receivers, three of whom were wide open in the end zone. Don Clark, former Trojan captain, gets the lion's share of credit for the fine line play. He is Navy's line coach and personally scouted his alma mater in two games this year.

After repulsing two Trojan threats in the, first quarter the Middies got tough offensively and left the field at half time with two big touchdowns to their credit.
