M.U- from pay nre. Nov. 24 (UP). Southern California's streamlined Trojans served a smashing bid for the western Rose Bowl invitation today riddling a bewildered UCLA football team 42-7 and cementing a tie with Cali fornia of Berkeley for the Pacific Coast Conference title. Wink Defeats Pecos, 37-13 Victory Makes Highly Touted Oilbelt Team District Champs.

(Special to The Times) Pecos. Texas, Nov. 24. Wink Wildcats went on a last quarter scoring rampage here this afternoon to chalk up an additional 18 points, put their conference game with the Pecos Eagles on ice and win the District 7 crown for the seconc successive year. Score was 37 to 13.

It was a heart breaking finish foi a Pecos team that had roundly out' played the highly touted Wildcat! for three quarters and twice during the game had enjoyed a one point lead. Donezell Out Of Game. Donezell, high scoring halfback of the Wildcat eleven, was on the side lines with a wrenched knee and Wink's burden fell chiefly on the capable shoulders of J. R. Callahan.

Easily the outstanding man on the field however, was Frank Medanich, who played the most brilliant game of his career. Consistent throughout the year Medanich really shone for the first time and was the sparkplug of a Pecos eleven that never gave up fighting. Wink scored in the opening minutes of play and again in the closing minutes and in the interval chalked up another touchdown in the second quarter, a third in the third quarter, and two more in the fourth. Callahan Rips Line. Callahan ripped through the line on a 20-yard jaunt in the opening period for six points but the lead was short lived.

A 25-yard pass, Medanich to Griffin, put Pecos back in the ball game soon after and Medanich booted the ball squarely between the uprights to give his Seventy thousand persons watched in amazement as what was expected to be a slam-bang battle between two bitter city rivals turned into a rout. The triumph gave USC and California identical records for the season with six victories and one defeat apiece, and threw the New Year's game bid into the lap of the 10 conference members. The conference vote on a Rose Bowl standard bearer will be called Monday. The Trojans gained their triumph after spotting UCLA a Viciously they fought off the stunned Cadets, pre-game favorites by a touchdown or two, until the last 20 seconds. And then they practically presented the Aggies with their touchdown by fumbling back of their own goal line.

The fight that had carried them up to the game's end lasted for the crucial try-for-point Over the center of the mountainous Aggie line waded Roy Baines, Texas center, to block Dick Todd's conversion try. By a quirk of fate, Texas scored its upset on the first try for point it had negotiated all season a failing that had cost them a possible victory or two and a tie. Only a few days ago the Texas freshmen licked their big brothers because of the varsity's failure even in practice, to boot the extra point. First downs were even at 10 and 10 and the Longhorns actually gained less ground on rushing and passing plays than the Aggies, but the payoff came to drives that counted and Texas sat in the first row there. So stout was the Texas defense that the Aggies could try only three running plays for the first 22 minutes of the game, the Longhorns keeping them backed deep in the danger zone that forced kicks on first downs.

Not until late in the third quarter did the Aggies penetrate as far as the Texas 17 yard line the'ir best march. Gilly Davis, Wallace Lawson and Wes Boyer, standouts in Texas' aroused backfield, blasted to the Aggie two-yard line in the first period but Lawson fumbled and Britt, Aggie end, recovered. The Davis-Lawson combine started another drive a few plays later. Davis took Todd's kick on the Aggie 45, handed it to Lawson, and the big fullback streaked down the sidelines to the eight. The drive failed when Lawson couldn't get over from the one-yard line.

The Aggies kicked meekly to their 25 and Texas started again. Peterson took one of Lawson's passes for 12 yards and Davis wiggled to the three. The Aggies stiffened and took over. After an exchange of punts, the Aggies marched to the Texas 17 on their deepest invasion mainly due to Todd and Kimbrough. But Jack Rhodes, fiery Texas captain and guard, intercepted a pass.

After an exchange cf punts, Texas negotiated a 46-yard drive for its touchdown. From the Aggie 46 Lawson shoved off on a line battering spree that took him to the 29. There Beefus Bryan took up with an end sweep that carried to the 17. Limberlegged Puett dashed into the game and quickly spun over his left tackle on a reverse to the Aggie three. On the next play, he repeated the dose to score standing up.

Lawson kicked perfectly the one and only Texas conversion of the season. rDDIE MILLER, New Mexico State's triple-threat quarterback who sparked the Aggies J-1 to their 13-9 triumph over Texas Mines in their Thanksgiving Day gridiron classic, slashes off tackle (above) for a three-yard gain.

UCLA counted first on a 10 yard STORY OF AGGIE VICTORY pass from Left Hal 'back Kenney Washington to End Woodrow Strode after the Trojans fumbled the Bruin kickoff and an intercepted pass deep in their opponent's territory. The rest of the period showed an advantage for UCLA with no scoring threats than USC pushed over twj quick touchdowns Cornell Fights Scoreless Tie gain.

Three minutes later End Al Kruegcr Intercepted Washington's forward pass on the mid-field stripe and galloped 50 yards to a touchdown.

Gas-par's kirk was good. Southern California took the ball Philadelphia, Nov. 24 (UP). Cornell's "Big Red" machine, favored to win as it pleased, was held to a scoreless tie today by an inspired Pennsylvania eleven, but the deadlock did not prevent the boys from Ithaca from winning the mythical "Ivy League" championship. Defeated only by Syracuse in one of its best seasons of the last decade, Cornell couldn't click today and at the bark of the final gun it was the sturdy Penn team that was hammering toward Cornell's goal.

In swift, line-shocking plays, thwarted or.ly by a 15-yard penalty, the Muckers, paced by Hcineman, drove upfield to the 17. On the next play, as the Aggies apparently stood rooted to the ground, Heinemsn dashed through a corridor of tacklcrs to the six-yard line. He socked right tackle for a yard and a half, and Barrett responded on the next play for three more yards Then, using the same wide play that scored against the Arizona Wildcats and Tempe, Heineman dashed around right end to score standing up. His kick for the extra point was good, and the Muckers led, 7-6, by a slim one-point margin. It looked like the slow-starting Muckers wore returning to form a few minutes later as they scored a safety.

But Rancy came charging in and downed the Aggie star, knocking him off bnl-ance, and he fell into the end zone. The half ended, 9-6, in favor of the Muckers.
