A crowd of some 15.000 saw history more or less repeated, for last year it was a 93-yard return of the second half kickoff by Bernie Snlscak that upset a favored Penn State team in the final game at the Stadium, an interception later adding up to a 14-0 victory for the pantners. For Pitt it was only the tnira victory in a tough 10-game sched ule nnd it broke a six-game losing streak. The touchdown was Pitt's first ln five comes, or since Inst to Notre Dame by a 39-9 score.

The Lions did not go down without a battle. They tnreai- ened several times only to una the Pitt line and ends too tough in the pinches.

Time after time, especially in the closing stages Coach Bob Higgins' passers were thrown back for large losses. Both teams substituted spar- inelv. each using only 19 players Pitts two ends, Leo bKiaaany and Bill McPeak, and George Ranii. the right guard, and Henry Clougherty, the center, played the entire gauie, and so did Ma rino Marchl and Johnny Nolan, the State tackles, and Bob Rut kowski, the Lions' left guard.

State made 12 first downs, nine by rushing and three by passing, and Pitt seven by rushing. Pitt played it close all the way and threw only three passes, completing none while holding State to four completions for 67 yards' ln 20 tries. Pitt gained 131 yards by rush ing and State 103. The kicking was below par, Pitt averaging a little less than 30 yards on 10 boots and State just over 30 yards on eight. The break of the game came following an exchange of short punts with Ventresco finally getting off one from midfleld which Robinson set himself to catch on the 15.

Jimmy's footing slipped before the ball got to him and he had to back up and take it on the 10. He cut to the left sideline, picked up Interference that brushed aside defenders and finally broke into the clear and with his speed could not be caught. Mike Roussos booted the extra point and that was the ball game. State came back menacingly twice before the period ended. It took Pitt's second kickoff and returned to its 36.

Tepsic gained five yards and Cooney broke through tackle for 19 yards and then caught a pass from Ven tresco for a first down on the 14. Another pass, from the 11 on third down, was intercepted by Ed Zimmovan on the one-yard line and run out to the 12. GOAL LINE PASSES FAIL After Pitt kicked away, Ventres co passed to Tamburo, his left end, for 27 yards to the 18, but the ball was lost on downs there when three passes and a line play failed. Once out of this hole. Pitt had no mo-e trouble in the half, keeping play on State's side of the field throughout the second pe riod and marching 45 yards to the 13 before losing the ball when Hal Wertman was stopped trying to make a yard on fourth down near the end of the half.

State made its way to the Pitt 28 before being thrown back to the 47 trying to pass midway in the third period and Just before this session ended Tepslc ran back a punt 48 yards to the Pitt 22, breaking away from three groups of tacklers.

Chuck Taylor Cliff Beckett. Beckett came first. He's the Sudbury (Can.) Slapper who is a favorite with the local fans as a result of a series of crowd-pleasing performances here. Relieved of his wartime job in the Canadian mining country, he's now devoting all of hi time to boxing and want to see how far he can go.

It should be far if he takes full advantage of his capabilities. He boxes Eddie Finnazzo of Baltimore. Next came Kapilow, a young Jewish welterweight of New York, who meets Gene Burton, New York Negro, in the 10-round windup. He had a good word to say for Al (Bummy) Davis, who was killed in a saloon stickup in New York a few nights before. "Al was a good kid," Danny said.

"A little wild, but dead game, and now game dead. He didn't take it lying down when he had only his fists against bullets." Danny is 24 now, served three years in the Coast Guard. He has lost only four bouts in a career of more than 50. One of them was a recent disputed decision in a go with Sammy Angott, the former lightweight champion, in Washington, when all of the newspaper critics gave him the fight, but all of the officials voted for Angott. The New Yorker had only eight or nine amateur bouts before turning pro.

Says he was fighting champions for amateur prizes and thought he might as well do it for money. For a time when he was in service he thought he'd be too old to resume his ring career when he got out, but now he's satisfied that it was all for the best. "I might have been burned out as a fighter by now if I had kept going," he reasons, "but the time off from boxing tnabled me to mature and fill out and I think I'm better off for it." Chuck Taylor an Improved Ringman Taylor, a local product, Is on furlough from Camp Breck-enridge, Ky where he's an athletic director. He's 22, mar ried and has two children. Often erroneously billed from New Kensington, he says his home is in Pittsburgh and he plans to come here to live when he receives his discharge within a couple of weeks.

He's originally out of Coalport, lived in Bloomfield and visited with an uncle in New Kensington for a short time. Chuck's most important bout to date was with Canada's hard-hitting Johnny Greco. He boxed before the late President Roosevelt and former Chief of Staff Gen. George Marshall at Fort Benning, did considerable boxing -in Florida. He's been in the Army more than three years, had to quit boxing for a time because of an appendicitis operation.

Right now Taylor is the apple of the eye of his manager, Jack Laken, who says the fans will see a greatly improved oxer when Chuck steps out against Sammy Andragna, a former soldier, at The Gardens. "He's a fast, two-fisted puncher and smart," says Laken. "I really think he's a title prospect." Chuck won division middleweight and post welterweight championships at Fort Benning and also won the post welterweight title and was the division's leading middleweight at Camp Gordon. He's been boxing instructor, athletic coach and calisthenics leader at every camp to which he's been assigned. The Gardens boxing show, by the way, is the best card of bouts arranged here since before the war from the standpoint of well matched contests.

24. (AP.) Notre Dame's Fighting Irish had to come from behind and wear down an even more fighting Tulane Green wave here today, winning, 32 to 6, before 63.000 spectators the largest crowd ever to see a regular season football game in the South. Tulane, rated by the experts as scarcely capable of giving Notre Dame a hard scrimmage, outplayed and outfought the Irish all departments during' the first- two periods and led, 6 to 0, at half time. Terry Brennan's 47-yard touchdown run early in the third period put Notre Dame into the ball game, and thereafter the Irisn rolled to scores on drives of 25, 41 and 84 yards as the Tulan-ians tired Notre Dame's last touchdown came on' Frank Tripucka's 21-yard pass to John Agrione, after a 15-yard penalty against Tulane. had put the visitors into position.

Short plunges by Phil Colella and John Panelli, and Ratter-man's 11-yard toss to Bill Gom-pers, accounted for the other Irish six-pointers. Stanley Krivilc dropkicked the first and fourth extra points, missing the others. The Hneuo: Po. Notre Dam Tuln L. K.

It wasn't spectacular football Speaking of conservative football, we certainly played that brand today. We had four 60-minute players, and they stood out.

'AP.) Duke's powerful Blue Devils became the Southern Conference champions for the second year in a row today, defeating a surprisingly tough University of North Carolina team. 14-7, before a capacity crowd of 44.000. The win over their traditional rivals also put the Big Blue well up among bowl contenders. i AiaoeUtcal Fraaa Wlfepboto, MICHIGAN leaps into mid-air for an 8-yard gain as the Wolverines defeat the Ohio State Buckeyes in their Western Conference game at Ann Arbor yesterday, 7-3. Michigan rallied in the last quarter to snare the hard-earned decision.

ANN ARBOR, Nov. 24. (AP.) Michigan's dogged Wolverines, coming from behind for a capacity crowd of 85,132 fans, punched over a fourth period touchdown for a 7-to-3 victory over Ohio State here today after Tackle Max Schnittker had put the Buckeyes ahead, 3 to 0, with a 17-yard field goal in the third period. After Robby was taken out in the third quarter because of a chest Injury, which Isn't serious, our offense was mediocre. He's a great boy.

I'm sorry that I couldn't use every boy on the squad, but we couldn't afford to take chances. We'll lose several good boys to the armed forces, Cerrone, a whale of a tackle, and a few others, but we'll have enough back next season to put out a better and more consistent team. Jack Smodio Is Just hitting his stride at quarterback. He'll be gone, too, before next season. Tepsic was the best on State's promising squad.

He really moves fast and runs hard. State, like us, lacks experience. By BOB HIGGINS Penn State Coach Pitt's line deserves a lot of credit. It shapes up as one of the best we've faced all year, including that of Navy. That Mattioll is a terrific ball player.

He time and again plugged up holes after we would complete a couple of successful reverses and delayed bucks. We couldn't gain consistently because of him. Thus we had to fall back on passing, and we're not too strong in the air. I think our Tepsic was as good as any back on the field. How-ever, we lack experience.

We'll have most of the squad back next year. Other than Robinson's run. I thought the game was about even. Rutkowski and Tamburo played well In our line. Tamburo and Herron, our other end.
