Quarterback Emery Nix, 175-pound football dynamo, passed for two touchdowns and scored one Ifimself Saturday, to lead the unbeaten, untied Texas Christian Horned Frogs to a 21-to-0 victory over the Pensacola Naval Air Station before a crowd of 5000. The Frogs also received plenty of aid and comfort from 154-pound Dean Bagley, reserve quarterback, whose 34-yard punt return preceded the second touchdown drive and was constant threat to the Navy the entire time he was on the field. The initial Teas Christian touchdown came with startling suddenness. On th: first offensive play for TCU early in the first period Nix faded back from his own 47-yard line and tossed a deliberate pass to Fullback Ralph Porter who raced across the goal line untouched. The Frogs struck again in the second quarter when Bagley's punt return took the ball to the Navy 40.

Nix and Halfback Sam Weatherford made a first down. Weatherford made nine at left end and took a pass from Nix for eight more. Nix then tossed a 10-yard pass to End Drummond Slover for the touchdown. A fumble by Sal Lococo of the Navy gave Texas Christian its next chance. Dee Ezell recovered on the Navy 35.

Passes from Bagley to Slover and from Nix to End Bruce Alford, plus a six-yard run by Bagley, took the ball to the Navy 16 and a roughing penalty pushed the Goslings back to their 1. Nix took it over in two tries. Guard Clifton Patton place-kicked the extra point after the first two touchdowns and Tackle J. C. O'Neal booted the third one.

The Navy marched to the TCU 39 in the third quarter, and to the 24 and the 3 in the final period but couldn't Keep its plays clicking in pay territory. Jim Blumenstock, former Ford-ham star, was the spearhead of the Navy offense but couldn't shake loose for a touchdown. Despite the score, the Navy was very much in the game most of the way. The Goslings made only seven first downs to 11 for TCU but held the advantage in gains by rushing, 100 yards to 81, the Frogs gained 129 yards by passing to 72 for the Navy.

Texas scored in the first and second quarters and didn't allow the" Owls a single first down. At halftime the crowd of 28,000 was reconciled to an easy Texas victory. Then things started happening. Rice drove to a touchdown with a magnificent surge with five minutes to go and was menacing the Texas goal line again at the finish.

Texas, scored the first time it got the ball, parading from its 22 with Roy (Workhorse) McKay and again the difference for the Longhorns Ken Matthews and Walton Roberts leading the charge. From the Rice 2-yard line, Roberts circled wide around right end to score standing up. McKay missed the point. The second Texas touchdown was on a sensation pass which Joe Schwarting took while falling down across the Rice goal line. McKay pitched the pass, a looper that gained 24 yards.

saw the game, the same number as last year, which left the war- riddled Mississippians with one triumph a warmup game thus far in their campaign. The Rebels had it all their way in the first half and the Razor-backs in the second, but the difference lay in the toe of Felice Cialone who booted the all-important placement. Charles Conerly, the spearhead of the Rebel attack throughout the night, set up Mississippi's touchdown in the second period. He booted his mates out of trou ble after a i Arkansas threat and, with four minutes remaining in the period, did the work that produced the marker. Britt recovered an Arkansas fumble on the Razorbacks' 41 and from there Conerly swept right end to reach the one-yard line where he was forced out Jerrell Jones took the ball across and the Razor- backs blocked the try from placement.

Max Sailings, Arkansas' senior wingback who vied with Conerly throughout the game for individ-. ual honors, shared the third- quarter spotlight that produced the winning touchdown. A short Mississippi punt, good for but 15 yards, gave the Razor- backs possession on their 44. Cialone reeled off 18 of the 23 yards that carried to the 33. Sailings hit the line there and went to the 15 where, tackled, he lat eraled to Jay Lawhon who was stopped on the 5.

Mississippi was penalized to the one for holding and Forte went over from there for the payoff. Cialone's placement was good. Mississippi came back with a beautifully consistent bid to re cover the lead but fell snort oy Inches of gaining a first down on the Arkansas 10. Conerly led the running as sault that carried to the 48, passed to Ray Poole to reach the Arkansas 34, where 'the backfield joined in the attack. But the Razorbacks held with their backs to the wall and took over late in the period.

The fourth quarter failed to produce serious threats by either team and the game ended with Arkansas in possession on the Mississippi 15 after a Rebel pass, had been intercepted. Arkansas Tibbitts Wynne Paladino Pos. Mississippi Thorsey Bernocchi Webb Wood Britt H. Jones R. Poole J.

The powerful Cadets started with a furious burst and the Crimson appeared to have run out of its famed defenses as Naval Comets Mustangs Become Clicking Machine On Shaw's Playing Dallas, Oct. 24 (AP).

They pushed the Navy around easily in the third period, but didn't break loose until the fourth. Johnny Collings, the 01-ney speedster, hurled from his own 45 to End Grady Martin on the Navy 29. A minute later he passed another to Jack Moncrief for a touchdown and Green again converted. The final Mustang touchdown came late in the final period with substitute Abel Gonzales leading the way.

On an exchange of punts the Mustangs took over on their own 45. Two line plays failed, then Gonzales tore around left end behind good blocking for 55 yards and the final score of the day. Green kick was perfect. Proceeds of the game went for Navy Relief. The Comets big show, besides the constant threat of Franck in the open field, was Cadet Peter Sachon from Catholic University.

All day long he backed the Mus tangs up with long, zooming punts, several carrying for more than 55 yards. The Comets however lacked a sustained offensive and in the first half crossed the midfield stripe only once when Franck scored. SMU's showing gave new hope to Mustang fans.

A Georgia Tech football team which used every formation in the alphabet and added the be-whiskered Statue of Liberty play out-speeded and out-maneuvered a Navy eleven Saturday, 21 to 0. Three plays were the ball same, and in each instance it was the middle secondary which allowed the i to sift through. The remainder of the time the Middies brought cheers from the crowd of 20,000 by the fine defensive stands, or brief, and for the most part feeble, offensive thrusts of their own.

Baylor took by surprise early in the fourth period, pass ing the ball from their own 20 after Jackson Webster's try for a field goal was hurried, wide and low to the right.

The Aggies were not looking for a pass. Bill Coleman threw 40 yards to tall Tom Johnson who had to reach high, but he snared it and had lumbered down to the 11 before Willie Zapalac caught up with him and threw him down. Coleman then faked, finally handing the ball off to Travis Nelson who was run out of bounds on the Aggie 1. But it was a first down for Baylor and Coleman rammed it across the line. Gardner McCormick's try for point by place kick was low.

Again Baylor threatened after big Milton Crain barged 30 yards off -tackle to the Aggie 9, a few minutes later. The Aggies defense was invulnerable and took over on downs and brought the game to a close with a drive downfield from their own 6 all the way to the Baylor 3. It was their ninth and last chance, the clock was ticking off the last seconds. Speedy Cullen Rogers of Mart was stopped in his tracks, but Leo Daniels connected with Bobby Williams on the 3. On the next play, Baylor's great center, Boyd Gatewood and Olan Runnels swarmed across the Aggie line and once more stopped Rogers.

Last pass of the day was broken up by Baylor's defenders. Baylor ambled two plays and the game was over. Baylor's iiomecomers felt better than they did after the 48-to-0 smearing at the hands of last year. Poi. Baylor Henderson LE Bailey Stout LT.

A surprise dropkick by Bill Garnaas, Minnesota quarterback, with nine seconds to play in the first half was the Gophers' victory margin, as each team made two touchdowns. The defeat was a bitter disap pointment to Michigan which has not beaten a Minnesota team since 1932, and which, on the basis of the early season records, appeared to have it's best chance in years to upset the Gophers. With Garnaas recovered from an injury and back in the game for the first time since the sea son's opener against Pittsburgh, the Gophers flashed the power which carried them to two straight, national championships before losses this year to the Iowa Naval Cadets and Illinois.
