LOS ANGELES, Oct. 5 Ohio Stage's rebounding Buckeyes wrecked he University of Southern California 21-0 today with a fullback irvho scored three touchdown in their intersectional classic before 80,047 fans. Joe Whisler, a 207-pound mass of shoulders, took the Trojans apart aut his methodical teammate, Johjh Stungis, added the extra pointairthat completed a miserable afternoon for the defending champions of the west. The renewal of the Buckeye-i Trojan rivalry, suspended since 1942 by wartime restrictions, put! U.S.C. down jn the heap for later Rose i Bowl selection and raised once-tied Ohio State as a national grid power.

Bucks Look Like Bearcats. The Buckeyes looked more like bearcats (-hen they began ripping the U.S.C. line almost from the opening kickoff. Five quick first downs paid off in exactly 12 minutes, Before the afternoon was over the Ohioans had 12 first downs and twice the Trojans net yardage. Whisler bumped across for the first touchdown from the one-foot line and Stungis converted.

U.S.C. was baffled by the tricky Ohio StateJ 10-man shift and couldn't muster a first down in the initial period. From this unhappy showing the Trojans battled back in the second period with more of their old power. Substitute Halfback Don, Doll a consistent groundgainer but was unable to find a scoring punch. Pa Blunder Aids U.S.C Both teams had the ball mainly in their own territory until half time.

Neither team clicked initial ly in the third period but U.S.C.'s Quarterback Mickey McCardle blunderedta pass into the hands of Ohio's Tom James on the Trojan 45-yard line and James reeled on to Troy's 24. Within seconds Wilis ler scored standing up. Stungis converted again and that practic ally was the ball game for the Buckeyes. The Trojans gave their supporters a futile thrill in, a 45-yard for ward and lateral passing attack to Ohio State's 36, then last the ball on an intercepted pass The Buckeyes promptly crashed their way to Trojan three at the end of the th'lrd period and on the first play of the fourth Whis ler rolled U.S.C. back with his shoulders for another score The steady Stungis kicked the extra point and Ohio settled down with second and third stringers, BUTLER SCORES IN LAST SECONDS TO SNATCH WIN By Awociated Preae.

MINNEAPOLIS, Minn, Oct 5. Indiana's defending Big Nine football champions staged a sec ond-half demonstration of power and passing technique to outplay Minnesota for a 21 to 0 decision today before R3.640 fans in Me morial It was the first victory of the 1946 season for the Hoosiers and the.

opening conference game for Minnesota. Fumbles played an important part in the Gophers' ability to hold off Indiana in the early stages. They recovered five of six Indiana fumbles in the first half and managed to keep the ball well within, the 20-yard lines. But with the opening of the second half, Indiana turned on a running and passing attack that the Gophers could not stem. A pass set up the first score, Ben Raimondi heaving to Pete Pihos to put the ball on the Gopher three-vard line.

Finos plunged the needed distance and Charles. Armstrong kicked the point, the first of three from his toe. A recovered fumble midway In the third period boomeranged on Minnesota and gave Indiana its next tally. Bill Bye, I substitute right half, recovered a Hoosier fumble on the Minnesota three-yard line. The Gophers attempted to punt out of danger but the kick was blocked and John Golds- berry fell on it for the score.

Bo McMillin's "pore little boys clinched the victory with the third score early in the fourth period Howard Cowan and Harry Jagade, sub backs, teamed to move the ball from midfield to the Minnesota one-yard line from where Jagade went over. Minnesota never seriously threatened to cross Indiana's goal line. A rmy Wins But 11 Held Lead Briefly By Aanoclated Preea. WEST rOINT, N. Oct.

Tribune SporU Editor. Well, Notre Dame beat Pitt In the horn opener In the stadium yesterday afternoon, 33-0, "but don't let that score fool you.

As 50,368 sweltering ana will tell you, the Irish power, speed and drive, so noticeable in the rout of Illinois, 26-6, the previous Saturday, wad kept under such control by an aggressive, hard- charging band of young Panthers that Notre Dame's vaunted attack couldn't get under way at all in the first quarter, which ended 0-0, and Johnny Lujapk, in desperation, had to take to the air for his points. The first touchdown came early in the second quarter on a 24-yard pass from Lujack to Bob Living stone; the eecond, which was scored on a aix-yard smash through the line bv Terrv Bren nan, was set up by two passes which covered a total of 36 yards, while the third touchdown, com ing early in the second half, resulted when Luiack hit Jim Mella with a beautiful pass near the goal line as Jim eluded the Pitt secondary. Go 99 Yards In Hurry. The fourth touchdown, scored late in the third quarter, started from Notre Dame's own one-yard line, and in four plays the Irish were over the Pitt goal. Two passes ate up 63 of those 99 yards, Mello sprinting 29 yards on a quick opener for the score.

Mello'a run was a beautiful piece of work on his part. With the regulars and most of the stringers out for the day, Notre Dame scored again in the fourth quarter on a 47-yard ground drive, Brennan getting the score on a 25-yard run, aided by a beautiful down-field block by Bob Skoglund. Until Notre Dame's tremendous supply of reserves finally wore down; Pitt's scrappy youngsters, the using a 5-4-2 defense throughout, made the Irish run-nine altflrlr look barl rnptrllv. The ground game of the home boys was so ineffective, In fact, that Notre Dame threw no less than 25 completing 10, two of them for the aforesaid touchdowns, and had two Intercepted. Receivers Miss Passes.

The tlc-ht Pitt defense made the Panthers vulnerable for a passing attack and that's one of the reasons Lujack threw so many. The Notre Dame receivers were somewhat less than sensational on many: occasions, however, when they dropped well thrown balls or failed by a step to catch up to good shots by the quarterback. In I first downs, Notre Dame made 19 to onlv four for PitL whose attack was completely throttled by Notre Dame's powerful defense. The Panthers didn't make a first down in the first half. Notre Dame got 257 yards by rushing to 211 by air for a total offensive gain of 468 yards, but againj don't let those fieurea fool you too much, as a whole lot of these yards 'were eaten up after Notrej Dame's reserve strength had worn down the visitors.

Pitt's total yardage for the day amounted to 42 of which 34 was by rushing and eight on passing, the Panthers throwing 10 and competing oniy one. Fitfs Attack Nil. Pitt got into Notre Dame territory! only once in the first half, and then Only to the Irish-49 before being' hurled back into their own territory immediately. They didn't! get into Notre Dame ground at all in the second quarter, while in the third they reached the Irish 31 on a 15-yard roughing penalty. The deepest they got into enemy territory in the fourth period was to the Notre Dame 47.

Obviously; Pitt at no time was a threat in the scoring column, buti its defensive play was easily better! than that of Illinois the previous Saturday. The visitors proved that a courageous, hard-charging line and line backer that won't be licked simply won't be licked. Frank Leahy will have Conrtnaad a pace three, tea.

Five running plays from1 there produced-the score, Brekrus going from the two-yard line, i Stamper's 25-yard slash through right tackle featured Washington's next touchdown drive in the same period.

8. Picks Up Seven Yards. 1 V-. sr a vaaaaa 1 w. 1, I y-- BY 1AVE GALU'P.

Trlhtine Sportd Writer. Washington Coach George Bas- ker gave the floor to his reserves Saturday night, and they re sponded wnth ail but six of the points that beat John Adams, 31-6, in an intra-city and conference; game at School field. The rantners secona xeam started the game, and. along with the third and fourth stringers, put in most of the time thereafter. The regulars were not used at all until the third quarter, and then mostly on defense.

i It was not until late in the last period (that Coach Basker decided to giveihis No. 1 boys an offensive fling. They promptly scored a touchdown, with Bob Robertson, the elusive halfback, streaking around right end for the last 24 yards. Robertson also played a big part in setting up the score by slashing through left tackle for 37 yards and a first down on the Eagles 27. Leroy Wrydzynskl, Bill Stamper, Dick Brekrus and Ray Ewald were the second-string backs who made most of the noise for Washington last night.

They functioned like old timers behind a shock troop forward wall that wasn't in the least timid about breaking a path. Eaglea Stubborn. Adams proved stubborn for a while in the first quarter, but the Tanthers finally got some momen tum up and drove 40 yards for their first touchdown. Stamper shot through left tackle and zigzagged his way over the goal from the Adams 11-yard line on the touchdown play. Quarterback Phil Kulczak then kicked the evening's only extra point.
