NEW YORK, Nov. 15. There have been parallels in the annals of sports for the magnificent comeback victory of an inspired St. Mary's football team here today, but you can find room for all of them on ths head of a pin.

Two touchdowns behind, the third quarter almost half over, seem Ingly hopelessly beaten, the Gallopjng Gaels began a thrilling last- minute drive that netted three Montana 27, 15. rAm Via wVifal pmintrv inH utnn CARDS' PASSES BROVELLI GAELS' TOWER HOUSE' touehdowns and a triumph over a previously unbeaten Fordham eleven.

Ieaky heavens and sodden, sloshy footins in no wise detracted from the program furnished by the Pacific Coast Breeders Association in the premiere of their 25-days meet. Excitement was high; the competition of the kind to induce fevered brows and the options calculated to induce that pleasantness of feeling that comes from inflated "pokes." Hand to Hand racing under the silks of Jack Atkins of the Pasadena stable, snagged the Inaugural Handicap, feature gallop of a mile and senenty yards, by the slender and quivering margin, of. a whisker from the veteran campaigner, Rip Rap.

Q'CJara From their deadly Poly rivals, by a score of 7 to 0, came the first defeat, in two years for Mission Hifrh's Bears at Kezar Stadium yesterday. And consequently there is no local prep champion today for the Bears and the lads from the Sunsei school are now tied for leadership in this A. A. A. race and it will take a return battle between them to name the 1930 titleholdcr.

The lone touchdown yesterday called out the very best that Is In Henry Decia, Poly's great running halfback, and a tine hit of acting; and deception by the entire. Poly backfield besides. PASS INTERCEPTED. It was in the middle of the first quarter after Ken Harper intercepted Schreiber's pass and brought it to the Mission 30-yard line that things began to happen. Decia scooted outside the left tackle past the sprawling Mission linemen, darted over toward the southern side line, eluded several pairs of groping hands and dashed to the one yard mark for the first real threat of the game.

But the whole affair took on a vastly different aspect when Decia lost one yard in two tries at the line. And Poly's young quarterback, Red Gibbcrson by name, remembered a stunt that various prep outfit? have executed with varying success for many lc years. OLD PREP CUSTOM. The Sunset lads came out of the huddle and lined up for a desperate bit. of strategy.

Challis, the fullback, moved over from his position to talk things over with Gibberson. presumably to tell his quarterback that the intended play would not work. The interruption was enough to cause the whole. Mission line to re- period, he emerged in the clear and alone after a slow moving play through left tackle. Action had all but stopped with a pileup on Nevada's forty yard line, when out of the mass Lefebvre broke, 20 yards straight up field, then out for the left goal line corner as Sheldon Potter, California safety, who drive of the last-place Boston Braves of 1914 to a pennant and a world's championship.

It was Tunney getting off the floor to save his title and Washington and Jefferson battling the great Golden Bears to a tie all in one. It was amazing, stupefying, dumbfounding, an uphill fight so fast and spectacular that it left forty thousand spectators breathless with excitement. It was the most thrilling game seen In this ptr of the country In years and year. BROVELLI STARS. (Continued on Fage 10, Column 2) By Sid Mercer NEW YORK, Nov.

Irresistible force met the Immovable object today at the Polo Grounds and the immovable object moved. Which is another way of telling you that the Galloping Gaels from St. Mary's College, away out there in California, just naturally up and kicked Fordham's winning streak In the slats. The score was 20 to 12 and what made, the operation all the more it cold. Three points to nothing.

That was the margin by which the Hol-lingbery express steamed into the conference title in a game which sent 42,000 fans home with sore laryngeal muscles, if that's what results from cheering all the livelong afternoon. EARLY TALLY. It came fifty-eight seconds after the initial whistle, did the Cougar goal from placement. The hoy friend was just arranging the blanket over Betty Co-ed's knees when the "break" happened. It was a fumble of the opening klckoff, with the brilliant Merle Hufford as the, unfortunate offender.

Two plays, just like that, and then while you were rubbing the sleepers out your eyes, there was AA'tskell leisurely hoofing one between the cross bars, wet ball and all! And that was the day's scoring. Surprising their most ardent admirers, the Huskies spent the rest of the afternoon making suckers out of the gamblers who were picking the W. S. C. to win by two and three touchdowns.

Oiitcharging the mm of HolMng-bery on the line and laughing at the power plays of their far famed hacks, the Huskies fought traditional rivals at even terms throughout the other 59 minutes- of the game. Not once did the running attack that smothered California and beat the Trojans of IT. S. C. reach the proportions of a touchdown drive.

For two years Bill Simkins, the Stanford Cardinals' dependable combination quarter and fullback, has been itching to pass as he did in the big game two years ago. His ambition was fulfilled here this afternoon when he threw the ball approximately 600 yards, half of which connected for yardage, and set what should be something of a record in helping to defeat California. Terh 57 to 7. Only nine Cardinal passes- connected out of the twenty thrown, but they reached the fearsome total of 293 yards and eight first downs, which is an average of 32 yards to the toss. Never since Brick Muller filled the stadium with footballs in the last quarter of his last big game has anything like the Stanford passing attack been seen here.

It is true that after the initial clash the Engineers were hopelessly outclassed, but the Cardinal passes were spectacular enough to keep the handful of customers in their seats despite a driving drizzle that kept a slick paste on the ball. Simkins was on the throwing end of four passes that went for touchdowns from 16 to 45 yards out and three others that terminated in scores good for 35, 42, and 54 yards. Coach Warner never had to put in a first string man except Simkins, who is more or less an alternate with Rothert.
