University of Cincinnati Bearcats and Miami university's Redskins yesterday used the same script Notre Dame and Ohio State originated in their thrilling classic, as they left more than 28,000 spectators limp with excitement in their golden inniversary football battle here in perfect weather.

West Point's other motive may be in the direction of defeating Navy by a bigger score than the 28-0 count rolled up a month ago by Notre Dame over the Midshipmen. Word from West Point has it that Coach Red Blaik really put the tent on his fellow Daytonian, Trainer Kol Bevan, to get the in- jured Cadets in shape for this contest. The "Heaver" delivered.

In the Penn game two Saturdays ago, Arnold Tucker, great quarter, back, suffered a sprained ankle; Shelton Biles, tackle, left with a strained leg ligament, and Tackle Coble Bryant came out with a badlv cut hand. All will be ready. So will Herachel (t'g) Fuson, big blocking back, who missed the Notre Dame game because of a severe shoulder separation.

vertised, wound up in a 13-7 victory for the Bearcats. That decision now makes their 60-game series even. Each team has won 22 and six have been tied. In a nutshell, here's the pitch: Heavier Cincinnati, the favorite, got off to a 6 to 0 lead in the first quarter, hut the plucky Miamians fought their way to a 7-6 edge in the fourth quarter. With almost certain defeat staring them in the face, Coach Kay Nolting's' battlers whipped up a touchdown pass and snatched victory from the time-keeper.

With only 28 sec-onds left to play, and with only ono down left, Cincinnati eked Meanwhile as Aimy'i squad pre pared to leave West I for the climatic came, Coach Karl Blaik reported his entire squad was in out the win with a pasa over tha goal line. i It was a bitter dose for the undcrdou Miami team that fought its heart out, but perhaps it wag only justice prevailing, because Cincinnati had the ede in just about every statistical item. The defeat, however, did Bot wreck Miami's chances of playing; in the Will Rogers Bowl gam at Oklahoma City on Jan. 1. Only a Continued on Page 39 excellent physical trim and that most of the players who have been on the Injured list will be back in action against the Middies.

9 THE OUTLOOK was not quite as optimistic on the part of Navy's coach as Hamilton announced that Joe Bartos, regular right halfback, who has been on the injured list, SATURDAY'S other big ones are the Georgia-Georgia Tech game win definitely be out or the game. In addition, Hamilton said it is very doubtful either Bill Hawkins or Bob Van Summern, Navy's other backs, will see action. They are recovering from leg injuries surrered earlier games. The Middies rested up overnight at Pine Valley (N.

Then the Cadets will return to the down south and the renewal 01 the isotre uame-souinern camornis rivalry at South Bend. The Georgia classic bag the biggest stake nf them To the winner will go the Sugar Bowl assignment at New Orleans, with its sugary "take" of $75,000. Georgia hasn't lost a game. Tech hasn't lost since its 13-9 setback at the hands of Ten.

nessee. It would strike me that Tech is more the unit type of team than Georgia is. Georgia'a offense and its publicity have been built around one man the great Charlie Trippl. It should be quite a contest in every way. And it's a little difficult to understand why the networks have passed up the game.

As for the South Bend struggle, it is loaded with stirring re. suits in the past. Some of the Notre Dame-L'SC engagements have been decided by a point or two. The seriea has been loaded with controversies of one kind or another. Because the war cut out intersections! football warfare, the Irish and the Trojans haven't met since 1942.

That game, won by Notre Dame by a 13-0 count, ended in a controversy over the Qffi-riating. Seventeen penalties were called; four players were ban. Ished by the officials. At one stage, the referee threw Bob McBride, Irish guard, out of the game for roughing Bill Seixas, a Trojan guard. A moment later, Seixas approached the official and spoke his piece: Referee, I don't know why you put that Notre Dame boy out.

He was only blocking me the way he'd been taught. 1 don't think he did anything illegal." Know what the referee did? He threw out Seixas, too, for talking hack to an official!

But it looks like too difficult an assignment. The Irish may not be in a class hy themselves, but at least they're in a class with Army and those two stand out far above the rest of the field. The Turkey Day Dailies THANKSGIVING DAY produced some interesting football. In three of the biggest games of the day, the issues involved departing coaciifs, Texas won its finale under old Dana Bible and Colgate did the same against Brown for old Andy Kerr. Young Ed McKeever, whose departure so far ia the mystery of the season, saw his Cornell lada malte a tremendous comeback against favored Penn, only to fall six points and a couple of yards short in the final minutes.

Biggest game out thia way was Cincinnati's 137 victory over Miami. Cincinnati's passing offense was a little too much for the Oxford Indians. It listened like a great game and it had a tremendous finish, as Cincinnati, trailing 7-6 in the last-minute of play, threw a touchdown pass with only 28 seconds left to win the old ball game. Neither team suffered any loss of prestige in that one. Nor did either coach.

If there are any better young mentors around than Cincinnati's Ray Nolling and Miami'a Sid Gillman, I have failed to spot Ihem anywhere. Six crown. Each team has four victories and. one defeat. In the Southern Conference, William and Mary trounced Richmond 40-0 to gain the runner-up spot to North Carolina's champions and win the Virginia state title.

At Long Beach, Cal 30,000 witnessed a quarterfinal playoff for the state cham- Sionship between Alhambra and ordan high. A crowd of 28,000 was reported one that Ld McKeever, who is leaving Ithaca after two seasons, can point to with pride. The husky Penn forces were expected to trample McKeever's crew, but Cornell drew first blood, scoring the first -time the Red' put the ball in play from scrimmage and adding two more touchdowns in tha final period after the Quakers thought they were out of danger. By losing, Cornell lost the mythical Ivy league title.

The championship now goes to Tale which has a 4-1-1 record. The Texas Longhorns presented the venerable Dana X. Bible with a going-away gift in a 24-7 victory over Texas A. M.
