It was Big John Hoffman, appearing before a hometown crowd 17,000, who provided the winning margin.

Midway of the final heat he gathered In a Rice pass on the Owl 32 and By HAROLD V. RATL1FF Dallas, Nov. 9 (P). The rough, tough Texas Aggies were tight in the clinches Saturday to halt repeated Southern Methodist thrusts and come out with a 14-0 victory that put them back in the big middle of the Southwest Conference football race. The Cadets cashed in on a blocked punt for one touchdown and were aided by a hard south wind that did things with Methodist punts to hammer to the other, then threw up a defense the Mustangs couldn't puncture for the two quarters S.

M. U. was continually moving to the shadow of the Aggie goal line.

The mighty Marshall Mavericks chalked up their eighth straight victory of the season and fourth conference win by mauling Texar-kana at the May's stronghold. The Border City boys threw a scare into Marshall's fans early in the game when Jimmy Goff plunged for a touchdown after a 70-yard drive sparhed by the Texarkana ace's Marshall retaliated with a scoring spree which netted them six touchdowns with four stellar backs, Billy Ray Clark, Shields Mitchell, Gahlen Dinkle and Bubba Field, leading the way.

Louisiana State University used all its power to outplay Alabama in the early stages Saturday and then withstood a final period rally led by the great Harry Gilmer to defeat the Crimson Tide, 31 to 21, before an estimated 43,000. The still powerful Alabama squad showed flashes of last year's brilliant playing which carried the tide to the Rose Bowl, but was stopped cold during most of the game by an alert and hard running Tiger team.

Tittle, Louisiana State quarterback, was able to hit his receivers repeatedly, and Dan San-difer, Tiger right half, brought the crowd to its feet twice on long runs, one on a lateral from substitute end Jim Loflin which was good for 82 yards and again on a 61 -yard pass from Tittle. 7 84 21 2 SMU Cloud Wilson Hamherger Cook Wright Iwis llalliday Ramsey Page Richards McKissick Gary Higgins Dickey Statzenberger Overly Moncrief Howell Daniels Welch Pickett Foe.

The Palestine Wildcats proved themselves contenders in the Piney Woods flag race by beating Nacogdoches, 21 to 0, Friday night. Responsibility for knocking Conroe down to a prospective tie now lies with the Wildcats, who held Lufkin to an 8-to-0 win a few weeks ago.

The Lufkin Panthers, District 12-AA's real pacesetter, took their recent disappointment out- on a hapless Greenville team, running up an astronomical 61-to-0 count Friday night. Lufkin had beaten Conroe, 26 to 0, before they discovered that an ineligible Panther had seen service. The Panthers were led in their top-heavy victory by James Mott and Kenny Hallmark. In District 11-AA play this Friday the Tyler Lions will entertain the Kilgore Bulldogs, who now have two wins and two losses in conference competition. The Long- the Tigers.
