Runs Mosconi Loyola a ncisco IF' 4 4 (: lit lumbes ti I '-Jr- -Al 'II -trtoWH Dons Outplay Del Rey Grids Bakersfield Halfback Sprints 67 Yards for One Touchdown BV CHARLES CURTIS An item known as psychology and a halfback called Marv Mosconi combined to upset the Loyola Lions yesterday. Psychology and Mosconi were both in the line-up (although Psych's name may not appear in print) of the University of San Francisco Dons who administered a 14-7 spanking to the rather confident Lions before 12,000 fans at the Gilmore Stadium pasturage. BELIED RECORD In all truth, it was no wonder that Loyola didn't get steamed up over the San Franciscans, who had been tied by Santa Barbara State and Hardin-Simmons and shellacked only a week ago by Fresno State. But the record belied the strength of Coach George Mai-ley's lads who beat Loyola to the punch consistently enough to outdo the Lions in nearly every department. In contrast to their last appearance, the Del Rey gang blocked and tackled like a rather, inefficient high school team.

MOSCOM GOES C7 Not too much credit should be taken from the Dons, however, for from the time Mosconi ran 67 yards the first time he had his mitts on the ball San Francisco was the better ball club with superior line charge, better signal calling and a harder-running backfieid.
