Almost strictly from a lack of re fctraint, but also from an Inability to hang1 on to the prolate spheroid at critical times, University of San Francisco Dons today still need that seventh victory to com' plete their greatest year in foot ball. One of the eager Dons went offside just as three other Dons tossed a Villanova back for a 3 yard loss on fourth down. San Francisco was penalized and the Wildcats went on to score the touchdown that gave them vic tory 21-19. It is awful to be so unrestricted this late in the season, and poor By PRESCOTT SULLIVAN Speedy apprehension of the culprits who picked Stan" ford's pockets in last Saturday's Big Game was promised yesterday by the Palo Alto police. From 8.5,0(10 witnesses they had good descriptions o( the two men invohed.

One was described as being about 5-11 in height ami of husky build. The other was said to be somewhat shorter, about 5-9, and weighing about 1G0 pounds. Both wore blue jerseys, gold britches and leather hats. Fingerprints found on the ball, tallied with those of two men known to be residents of Berkeley. Police named the larger man as Jackie Jensen and the smaller fellow as Paul Keekley, football players for the University of California.

The pick-up order already has been broadcast. "Ought to nab 'eni before nightfall," the gendarmes declared. Tt was a daring crime. Here is an account of it taken from police files: "Less than three minutes of the Big1 Game remained to played and Stanford, ahead 18-1 1, was on its way to the greatest upset victory of the season. "Then Jensen and Keekley came In.

Might have known they were up to no good. But they acted to avert suspicion and at the moment they were unobserved. "That was what they bad hoped for. AH of a sudden Jensen made his move. He threw the ball 13 yards to Keekley.

Keekley caught it, run another 65 and the awful deed was done. Final score: California 21, Stanford 18. Early arrests will be made." A more detailed report of the game-winning play came from another source. Pappy Waldorf, the California coach who probably lost thirty; of his original 260 pounds watching Saturday's thriller, supplied ad ditional information. He appeared only too pleased to do it, and his tone indicated! that he sided in with Jensen and Keekley whom he described as "mighty fine boys." Brimming with good-nature, Old Pappy said: "That play was the one we designate as 31-X.

"Prior to last Saturday Ave had used it three time and it worked twice. "We employed it first in the Wisconsin game, only that time Jensen threw to Cunningham instead of to Keekley, who was open. It got us a touchdown. "In the USC game we tried it again. But Keekley was too deep and the pass was intercepted.

"The UCLA game saw it click for 1i yards. On that occasion, though, it was C'elerl who passed to Keekley. "My heart was in my mouth when I saw the boys drag it out again last Saturday. "I thought at first that Jensen was going to pass to Cunningham who was in the clear, not far from our bench. "Then I saw him turn, and I knew then that it was Keekley to whom Jensen was going to throw.

"The ball seemed to be in the air for half an hour. I thought it would never get there. Actually it was thrown low and short and I'm still wondering how Keekley made the catch without falling. "He did stagger and stumble but somehow he managed to keep his feet. I couldn't see much of the remainder of his run.

"Our fellows were making like cray and they blocked my view. But from their screaming, I knew that Keekley was doing all He certainly was. Coach Ed "Tex" McKeever is al most beside himself.

Army beating Navy by the identical score by which Cal beat Stanford, 21-18. That was a stunner all right. Navy was supposed not to have as much as a ghost of a chance. Yet it fought Army to a standstill and missed a tie only by the margin of three conversions.

Stanford's fight against California might have been even more epic. Navy had taken a sorry record into its struggle with Army but it HAD won one game that from Villanova. Stanford hadn't won a single heat. Even Idaho had whipped the poor Indians. Eight straight larruping plastered their ragged wretchedness.
