contest The final score was Utah 33 Denver 21 and few wilder offensive gridiron battles have ever been seen in the bowl The docile and down-trodden Redskins who were humiliated by Oklahoma A two weeks

who didn't drop a toss all day as he drove the Denver secondary crazy It was an offensive football game from start to finish and the story of the ball game was a series of long touchdown marches topped off with a bizarre finish that resulted in two more touchdowns after the fans figured the game was all over GALLOPIN' GAY GETS AWAY FOR ANOTHER GAIN AGAINST OUTPLAYED PIONEERS despite the
