The score war knotted at 14-all with 10 minutes to go when lightning struck the Murray team.

Miami drove 65 yards to score the third Redskin touchdown. The tally was made oa- four plays as Dick Ens- mlnger, great Miami fullback, plunged over from the II yard line. The try for extra point wag made by Quinn. It failed. With only six more minutes to play, the Redskins struck again.

After the third score, the Miami team kicked off and Murray tried pass on the first play. It was Intercepted and another Redskin score was chalked up from the 27 yard stripe. Quinn again failed to convert. Murray's comeback came In the opening minutes of the third stanza as Bob Smith scored from the three The play, was set up when White recovered on Miami's 26. Murray, on two passes by Smith, advanced to the six.

A line play took the Horses to the three. Fink, right tackle, kicked the extra. The second Murray marker was the result of Halfback Bill Hanes plunge from the one yard stripe. The play came about when Fink inter cepted a Miami pass on his own two. Fink lumbered to the Redskin 26 and was knocked down.

Then Smith passed to Burke on the 10. Smith's wicked line plunge carried the ball on to the one, where Hanes took over. Fink's kick was score-knot ting. Just before Murray scored Its second marker, Miami used three laterals on one play to get down to the Kentucklans one yard line from the 26-stripe. Murray held and took over the ball on downs.

Smith tried to pass from behind his line and it was Intercepted. On the next play Miami tried the pass that big Fink intercepted.

Quinn passed to Carboy for the extra point.

Miami scored again in that stanza as Murray fumbled the kickoff and the Redskins recovered. Enzmlnger scored from the six-yard line.

Murray's Bill Slater, end who once played for Southern California, was the standout in the Murray lineup. Enzmlnger took honors for the Redskins. Ring also sparkled for the Seahorses. Murray State Pos. Miami McCarty LE Carboy Shaughnessy LT Fuchs B.

Sl-tfV- Those somewhat terrific Bucks from Ohio State bounced off the ropes tn the fourth quarter today to ram over three touchdowns and hand the Great Lakes Naval Training Station a 26 to 6 defeat before a tremendous outpouring of 73,477 fans. It was Ohio Bute's fourth straight victory and the first setback of the season for the Bluejackets who were coached by Lt. Paul E. Brown, head coach at Ohio for three years. After completely dominating the game in the first half, the Bucks sagged tn the third quarter to let the Bluejackets tie the count six-all and when the final period started Ohio State to all Intents and purpose was well on its way to fade out 1 Then came the deluge.

Starting from his own 33, he whipped a 24-yard pass to Jack Dugger and then reeled off 34 more yards by himself to give Ohio a first down on the Great Lakes five- yard line, and it was Horvatn who finally scored the touchdown from the one-yard stripe. That was all the Bucks needed. Fighting desperately with passes, Great Lakes dusted off the old Statue of Liberty play and Dick Jackson, reserve Ohio State end, swiped the ball out of 31m Youel's hand at the Bluejacket 40 and ran back to the 19 before he was brought down from behind. Just four plays later Ollle Cline went through the middle like a runaway freight train to score from the six-yard line, The rapidly tiring Youel still didn't give up on his passes, how ever, but the Buck linemen were all over him and Great Lakes gave up the ball on downs at its 25.

Horvath went into action again and the clock showed just one second to go when he battered over from the two yard line. Ohio State almost got touch down on its first offensive play of the game, Dick Flanagan running 62 yards to the Great Lakes eight- yard Liston "-Takes Issue With Phog In Gaming Case LAWRENCE, Oct. 21 W) Sharp Issue with Dr. Forrest C.
