From Undefeated Ranks, 49-6 I 'Ar fit'' -n fii 1 fix Ti T7 Jm2A Up 10 First Downs By POTTS BOSWELL COLLEGE STATION, Texas. Oct. 23. JP) North Texas Agricultural college, little brother of Texas A. wr in the statp'a affricultural college system, uncovered a vicious defense to battle the Cadets to a 0-0 tie at Kyle field Saturday.

Smothering each Aggie drive before it could reach full development, NTAC clicked in spots to roll off 10 first downs to the Aggies three, and mustered a threat in the fourth quarter which failed only after McMinn, taking a long heave from Pete Stout, dashed across to be called back when the pass was ruled illegal. Perfect Record Marred The result left Texas A. Sc M. among the nations' unbeaten teams but marred a record perfect through four games before Saturday. Long and fancy kicking by Red Maley, the former Southern Meth-gdist star, for NTAC, and Stanley Turner of the Aggies; an 88-yard dash across the goal line by Bond of NTAC, called back because he stepped out of bounds; and Deere's "38-yard dash after intercepting an NTAC pass, featured first half play.

NTAC pushed the play to mid-field consistently in the third period and as the fourth quarter opened James Batchelor, McMinn and J. J. Gibson on plunges and passes moved for two successive first downs. Pete Stout, the 200-pound former Texas Christian freshman, out most of the game, came in to dash 25 yards for NTAC but net only 12 by stepping out of bounds. Pass Ruled Illegal Hard rhareinff Afieies chased Stout back some 30 yards on the next play and he heaved a long one to McMinn, who took it on the Aggie 35 and sprinted over the tmat ime Rnt the nass was ruled Illegal and the ball came back.

But that brief flash was all. NTAC took over, ran a few plavs, kicked and tne game ended with the Aggies firing two long, incomplete passes. Maley's longest punt was 76 yards, the longest by Stanley Turner was 74 and Maley also boomed one for 71 yards. James Reed, a former Texas lecn player who started at guard on the VTAC line on defense: Burnie Smith, former Southern Methodist ineman, at tackle, and Crosson, also a Texas Tech product, at end, put ip strong defensive games in the N'TAC line.

(P) Tulane's spirited Green Wave struck with two lightning touchdown plays here Saturday to whip the Mus- tangs of Southern Methodist, 12 1 to 4 before 22,000 fans.

The Greenies got their first touch-! down midway of the opening period on tailback Billy Jones' 18-yard pass to end Aubrey "Snake" Bailey. The play climaxed a drive that started from the Mustangs' 47-yard line. Bailey's try for point after touchdown was wide. Shiver Stars Jim Shiver, freshman transfer Auburn, got the second Tulane touchdown in the fourth period on the most sensational play of the game. Shiver intercepted Bob Stewart's long pass nthe Tulane 43, cut to his right then reversed his field and scampered 57 yards for the score.

Shiver missed the extra point try, but the Greenies' lead appeared safe with less than six minutes remaining in the game. Following the second touchdown, Leon Cunningham returned the kickoff 15 yards to the 41 and from that spot the Mustangs drove for a touchdown. Fullback C. D. Allen finally crashed over tackle for the score on fourth down after S.M.U.

had made it first and goal to go on Tulane's 3-yard line. Shaws try for point was blocked by McMillan. Buddy Gatewood, Tulane center who made all-Southwest honors at Baylor last year, and tailback Lloyd Parker of the Mustangs were the outstanding performers of the game. Ponies Threaten Southern Methodist made one of their most serious early scoring threats in the second quarter with Parker, Cunningham and Gipson alternating in advancing the ball from their own 38-yard line to the Tulane four, where the Greenies held. Both lines played fine defensive games.

Southern Methodist made 75 yards rushing, net and Tulane 56, and the Mustangs got 121 yards passing to 63 for Tulane, Starting lineups: S.M.U. Croft, le; Holt, It: Shaw, Ig; Cloud, Hill, rs Pool, rt Levy, re MeClintock, qb Parker, ih Walling, rh Allen, fb. Tulane Bailey, le: G. Jones, Bour. leois.

SchroiU. Athaa. Shiver, Little. Fechon. Army Defeats Yale, 39 to 7 By WILLIAM D.

CLARK NEW HAVEN, Oct. 23. (UP) Army thrilled 38,000 fans Saturday by smothering an underdog Yale team 39-7. with the Eli-men gaining the sole consolation of being the only eleven this season to violate the Cadet goal line. The Army played a fast and furious first half, ringing up 13 points in each of the two periods, while Yale was powerless to stop the hammering thrusts of Glenn Davis, Carl Anderson and George Maxon, who gained almost at will on every plunge.

Anderson Catches Pass In the onenlnff threai mlnnton Tommy Lombardo heaved a 22- yara aerial to Anderson in the end tone, and then George Maxon dashed over from the six after long ground gains by Davis and Jack Minor. Maxon and Minor paired to rush the ball earlv in thi iprnni tn Yale's 30 from where Davis passed to aot MacKinnon in the end zone for a third touchdown. Then, with a minute before the half ended. Bob St. Onge took a 55-yard pass irom uavis on Yale one foot line and George Troxell bucked over.

Rav (Scooter) Scussel snarltprl Yale to life in the third period wun a yard run to Army six and passed to Al Mahoney over the goal line for the Elimeri's only tally. Bob Strype converted. Almost immediately, Army bounced back on a 45 yard pass, Davis to Ed Rafalko for its fifth score. Then Came Thrills The fourth period provided the thrills for the 38,000 chilled spectators. Boh Chahnt'n kirk- frnm Valo' 26 was blocked by Jack Prychlik wno rumbled.

Faul walker scooped up for a recovery. Scussel then nassed into thi pnd 7nn Hall intercepted for a touchback. Army opened a artve which carried to Yale's 2 where Lombardo tried three times without surwss to go over. But in the closing five seconds, and on fourth down, Charlie Daniel skirted end for another tally and Lombardo barely converted as the whistle ended the game. Using a knockout nut to remove a rear wheel of your auto is certainly not advocated, even though the idea so often works.

ANN ARBOR, Oct. 23. (UP) With Bill Daley and Elroy Hirsch leading the way, Michigan blasted Minnesota from the ranks of the nation's unbeaten football teams Saturday by overwhelming the Golden Gophers 49 to 6 with a withering display of offensive power before 45,000 spectators.
