It was sweet revenge for the soldiers, who suffered a 96 to 14 defeat at the hands of Texas Tech early in the season, and was a tribute to the coaching of Albert Wirz and B.

Buster Melton came into his own in the ball game, and played the greatest defensive and offensive game he has turned in this year. He joined with the Blonde Bomber in slashing to some long gains through the Army line and was a constant threat.

Trade Punches To Jaw A crowd of 20,000 came to Rice field to sec the two Marine squads trade touchdowns, socks to the jaw and most everything else. Once I two members from each squad hooked up in a fist fight on the sidelines. Throughout the game there were numerous roughing penalties. Proceeds from the game went to war relief after expenses were taken out. SLI, which had played only one game prior to tonight, is undefeated and stands a good chance of being invited to the Sugar Bowl.

Representatives of the New Orleans grid classic were in the stands. SLI got tow touchdowns in the I opening period with Virgil Eikenberg, formerly of Rice, crashing through right guard from the one- foot line for the first counter and dark passing to Windell Williams, also a former Rice player, for 41 yards and the next score.

That sums up the whole matter in a nut shell. If you are a devotee to defensive football with very little scoring, you had that in the first half. A whole half of it. If you like to see a team make a sustained drive to a touchdown, using both ground and air attack, you should have seen the first Lubbock touchdown. If you like long runs through a broken field for touchdowns, you should have seen Temple score twice in machine gun order.

If you like deadly aiming passers who can reach out into the distance and pluck one in the arms of a re- eiver for long range scoring mnch, you should have seen Lub- )ock's scoring of the winning ouchdown. That takes care of the scoring. But that wasn't all that the game had for the fans. If you like to see a game bunch of youngsters square off on the goal line for a "Horatius At the Bridge" stand against a power driven machine.that had roared down unstopped to the goal line, you would have seen Lubbock do the trick twice, once in each half. played just a few minutes more than the famed passer.

Irish Punch While Bertelli was in, Notre Dame scored three of its touchdowns. Two in the first period were by Julius Rykovich, Illinois' most promising freshman back last year who now is a V-12 itu- dent at Notre Dame. He took a 35-yard pass from Bertelli on a dead run at the goal line lor one, and plunged over from the four for the other. Bertelli threw seven passes in all and completed five for 83 yards. Reserve Halfback Bob Palladino scored two more Irish touchdowns in the second period to give Notre Dame a 26 to 0 half time lead.

Creighton Miller went 30 yards down the sidelines to score in the third period and Fred Early followed up with a touchdown run. Johnny Lujack made the fourth period marker. The Irish outweighed the Illini in first downs, 25 to 8, and in total yards gained 637 to 162, In- score at the start of the third "period. Parker missed the try for point. Ellsworth a few minutes later swept left end for 56 yards and a touchdown, Parker adding the point this time.

Max Munh ran 29 yards to the Rice one in the same period, and then went over on the next play. Again Parker was good with the kick. A block-. ed Rice punt was picked up by Texas'' Jim Kishi moments later and he ran 9 yards to score. Magliolo missed the point try.
