deluge of 10 touchdowns and an almost complete disregard of defensive football embattled TCU rallied for three touchdowns in the second half to earn a 33-33 deadlock with underrated Oklahoma AMA here Saturday night An estimated crowd of 18000 yelled itself all but speechless as the Frogs apparently hopelessly beaten stormed back in the game last hectic minutes to wipe out a 33-14 Cowpoke advantage It was a stunning reversal of the form chart which insisted that the eretolore defensively powerful Frogs would win by two or more touchdowns TCU supporters fell silent as the Cowboys' brilliant passing Quarterback Jack Hartman to End Don Van clicked for a 19-0 lead in the games first 25 minutes Aggies Boost Lead It wasnt till then that the Frogs got a rally going clicking off two quick touchdowns that reduced the Waddie advantage to 19-14 But the comeback died when Oklahoma scored again in the final 20 seconds of the first half and again after the third-period kickoff for a 33-14 lead Eight minutes had expired in the third quarter before TCU finally got another and the Cowboy edge was pared down to 33-27 late in the same period It became 33-33 when the clock had run around to the games last five minutes when Lindy Berry this night a tremendous passer clicked on a 35-yard touchdown aerial to Jack Archer The Frogs made one last desperate bid for a deciding counter in the final three minutes but couldn't cope with a swift-running timepiece Taking over on the TCU 43 after a punt good for only 5 yards TCU slashed to the 2 before finally surrendering It was a drive propelled by Berry's passes to Morris (Snake) Bailey George Boal and Johnny Dunn First he pitched to Boat on the Cowboy 39i clicking Off 18 yards Then he shot an 8-yarder to Bailey on the 31 Then to Boat for 6 and a first down on the 25 Bailey made another spectacular catch nn the 18 then Berry Caught bailey again on the 3 One Vard Short That seemingly provided the situation the Frogs had been chasing all season With the clock showing just 20 seconds Berry sent John Morton into right guard and the Cowboy line reared up to hold him to one precious yard Morton tried the same spot on the games
