Lexington, Nov. Big Blue football team pushed across two quick touchdowns in the second period; added another on a blocked kick in the third, and defeated the cpurageous Flying Cadets, Southeastern Conference football game played before 12,000 here today. The Cadets scored in the third period on a forward-pass play which covered 80 yards. Devils Lose Darnell. It was a costly victory for the Blue Devils.

They lost Leonard (Dinky) Darnell, star junior end from Winst Darnell sufbroken left arm during the fourth period, and he'll not be able to play footbal, again this year. The to Darnell was the second to 'a Duke regular in two weeks. In last Saturday's triumph over Georgia Tech, Eaves suffered a fracture of a small bone in his right leg. That ended the college football career of Eaves, a senior. Eaves, blocking back, the Duke field general.

made another dangerous threat by completing a second long pass in the third quarter. Burns, McAfee Watch. Two Duke aces, Center Burly Burns and Halfback George McAfee remained on the sidelines but it is doubtful if they could have helped Blue, so determined were the Cadets that they were not going to absorb a one-sided licking on this, the day of days for the Institute. Let it be said right now: The Blue Devils were not able to take it easy for that classic with Carolina next week. They were giving all they had.

and the only reason Burns and the elder McAfee did not play was simply that they were hurt in the game with Georgia Tech last week and could not play. And those people of Duke who came up here to see this ball game could get little satisfaction out of the fact that V. M. I. completed 10 of 16 passes, for a total of 142 yards.

Robinson Does It. Roger Robinson set up Duke's first tally of the game with a brilliant deceptive play. Faking reverse to Swiger, he made a half-spin; faked handing the ball to Lach, who was coming by from his place in deep punt; made the rest of the spin, and went wide around left end for 31 yards to the V.

Iowa City, Iowa, Nov. fighting iron men toppled proud Notre Dame from the ranks of the country's undefeated football teams today. The durable Hawkeyes, eight of whom played the full 60 minutes, snapped Notre Dame's six-game winning streak by a 7-6 score in an exciting, pulsetingling game that had 46,000 fans standing for the last four minutes of the battle. Durable Nile Kinnick, who completed his fifth straight game without relief, sent the Hawkeyes into a 7-0 lead with a four-yard touchdown plunge and a successful dropkick for the extra point. The touchdown came with seconds remaining in the second period.

Iowa had recovered a fumble to get the scoring chance. The Hawks fought off Notre Dame until late in the third period. The fighting Irish climaxed scoring surge with Milt Piepul's cutback through center from the four-yard line for a touchdown on the second play in the fourth period. Lou Zontini dropped back to try for that big extra point that would mean a tie. He took careful aim but the big halfback, whose points after touchdown beat Southern Methodist and Carnegie Tech, booter the ball to the left of the posts.

"Breather." That was all for the Irish. The game they had scheduled for a "breather" backfired to end Notre Dame dreams of its first undefeated season since Knute Rockne's last Irish team won the national championship, in 1930. The Iowa victory also duplicated the performance of the 1921 Hawkeye eleven which whipped the Irish, 10-7, to crack a 20-game winning streak. It was a terrific break that set the stage for Iowa's touchdown but the fighting Hawkeyes, who had only one scoring opportunity, beat back every drive except for the quarter thrust. This Settled It.

Just when it appeared that the first half would result in a scoreless tie, Kinnick tossed a long pass into the end-zone. Steve Sitko, the Irish safety, intercepted the ball, raced back into the playing field, and then apparently tried to lateral when he saw that he was cornered by the onrushing Iowans. He was cracked hard by Bruno Andruska and the ball went aflying. Alert Dick Evans and Floyd Dean pounced on the oval, and it was Iowa's ball the Irish four-yard Kinnick and Dean tried the stout Notre Dame line but were piled up without gain. Then Kinnick, shifting over to right halfback from his customary left-half slot, hit over Notre Dame's right tackle for the touchdown.

Iowa backfield star dropkicked the extra point. Change in Color Helps. Notre Dame, which between halves switched from black jerseys! to Irish-green, drove 59 yards way in the third period but saw its scoring threat choked off when husky Al Couppee, Hawkeye quarterback, tossed Harry Stevenson for a yard loss after the Irish had reached 16-yard line. Notre Dame couldn't recover that lost ground. Kinick knocked down Stevenson's pass on the next play.

tried a field goal from the 30-yard line, but it was far short. The Irish, however, weren't through. Getting the ball in midfield a few minutes, later, they opened their touchdown drive. Stevenson hurled a pass to Bill Kerr, who was downed on the Iowa 23. Piepul, the hard-driving fullback, and Stevenson pounded to the Hawkeye 10 as the third period ended.

the first play in the fourth quarter, Stevenson cracked off Iowa's left tackle for six yards. Piepul followed through with to touchdown crash. Hopes for a tie, however, went glimmering when Zontini missed the try for extra point. Notre Dame never got into scoring position again, although they tried desperately to meneuver into position throughout the remainder of the quarter. At the end, however, the Irish were deep in Notre Dame territory trying frantically to get off a long successful pass and stave off defeat.

The victory gave Iowa a record five triumphs in six starts. The Hawks have beaten South Dakota, Indiana, Wisconsin, Purdue, and Notre Dame. They lost to Michigan. Notre Dame had knocked off Purdue, Georgie Tech, Southern Methodist, Carnegie Tech, and Army before today's battle. MARQUETTE CHALKS UP WIN OVER IOWA STATE Milwaukee, Nov.

University subdued a fighting, but outclassed Iowa State eleven, 21-2, today before a crowd of 15,000. Marquette threatened seven times. The team connected, however, a score in the first period and then smashed two more touchdowns in the final quarter to insure a win. Grid Scores STATE. Duquesne 7, State 0.

the strong right arm of Edgar (Special Delivery) Jones, the Pitt Panthers sailed through the air to a 6-0 victory over Carnegie Tech today, and avenged the 20-10 setback handed their "dream team" last year. The game drew 55,000. With than two minutes to play, inaded from the coal regions far back to 45, wriggled away from two tacklers, and uncorked a mighty heave into Bob Thurbon's arms in the Carnegie end-zone. An exchange of kicks gave Pitt the ball on Pitt's 31, setting the stage for the touchdown drive. Jones, who replaced Dick Cassiano midway in the final period, slipped through for seven.

Thurbon added 8, then broke away for 15 to the Tech 39. Then Jones went into action, after seemingly being trapped for a huge loss, and the Pitt stands thundered approval. As Carnegie Tech tried desperately to connect with a tying pass, Jones and Thurbon contributed sparkling interceptions. Jones dashed 45 yards deep into Tech territory with one, but Pitt was offside on the play. A moment later, Thurbon ended the Tech threat by intercepting a pass and dashing 15 yards to the Tech 38.

VANDY SCORES VICTORY OVER SEWANEE TIGERS Nashville, Nov. high hopes that Sewanee's Tigers held for moving from the Southeastern Conference football menagerie into the big top were shattered today by Vanderbilt's Commodores, long a top-billed act although this year they have been anything except headliners. The score was Vanderbilt 25, Sewanee 7. and that meant that Coach Ray Morrison finally. had seen a conference foe fall his boys this season.

Sewanee's record of not having won a Southeastern conference contest remained intact. Finding the men from the Mountain easy for his first-stringers, Morrison began his preparations for the tussle with Tennessee next week by experimenting with the Commodore lineup. The finds possibly were Gene Harlow as a line batterer and Charlton Davis as a distinct threat to anybody's team if blocking is available. Vanderbilt counted four times, with Harlow scoring the initial touchdown before the game was three minutes old.

Two high-geared Southern Conference football machines fired all their offensive fireworks nere today in a spectacular battle which saw the Clemson Tigers gain a 20-7 victory over the Wake Forest Demon Deacons.

A Clemson homecoming crowd of 12,000 saw the more their resourceful Tigers demonstrate by halting the famed Deacon running attack and rolling up three touchdowns. The big scoring orgy came in a wild second-period, after the Tigers had given ground constantly during the first quarter before the hard and elusive running of Red Mayberry, John Polanski, and Tony Gallovich. Blalock Scores. After Mayberry quick-kicked out of bounds on the Clemson 21, Banks McFadden, the brilliant Tiger triplethreat, leaped into the air and fired a bullet pass at Joe Blalock. Blalock juggled the ball, which bounded high, but snatched it as he staggered past.

Mayberry, the Deacon safety regained his balance, and burst into a dash that carried him across the Wake Forest goal-line. Shad Bryant added the extra point with a perfect placement, and the score was Clemson 7, Wake Forest 0. Deacs Tie It Quickly. The lead was short-lived, however, for four plays later the Deacons tied the score. Polanski took the Clemson kickoff on his eight-yard line, found a slot down the middle, and raced to the Clemson 13 before Bryant pulled him down.

The return was 79 yards. Bryant fought off a Deacon blocker to get Polanski, the charging fullback carried him for several yards before stopping. Polanski slashed right tackle for six yards, and then scored on a sevenyard dash around right end on a fake reverse. John Pendergast dropped back from center and placekicked the tying This Won It. The Tigers came right back to take and hold the lead.

They got the kickoff on their 35, and McFadden, Bryant, and Charlie Timmons reeled off 28 yards to the Deacon 37.

-Cornell, by converting two points-aftertouchdown while Colgate did it, today beat back the season's most determined assault on its untied record, and won by 14-12. Resourceful Mal Baker, whose passing and running illuminated the ponderous Cornell attack, made sure of the first Cornell extra point after he had tallied the touchdown. Recovering when opening, Nick Drahos' placement try was blocked, he skirted right end for the precious point. When Mort Landsberg had scored the second Cornell touchdown ia the ensuing Colgate offside gave Cornell periother chance at the extra point Drahos' placement was low. On the second try, Baker ran around end for the point.

Colgate lashed back immediately after the Cornell second score. It required only two passes, both from Wally Davids to Ed Donnelly, to turn the trick. One went for 25 yards. the other for a total of 55, with Donnelly carrying the ball the last 25. Davids' placement try was wide.

A fumble covered on the Cornell 31 set the stage for the Red Raider's next score, in the final session.

Winston-Salem, Nov. 11. (P) Undefeated North Carolina's aerial circus, tuning up for a showdown with Duke next week, taxied along the ground for three touchdowns and then took off for two in the air as the Tar Heels defeated Davidson, 32-0, here today.

With General George Stirnweiss and Jim (Sweet) Lalanne at the controls, the Flying Tar Heels smothered the Wildcats. It was Carolina's seventh victory in eight starts and its fifth straight Southern Conference. The game was played before 11,000 specators in Bowman Gray Memorial Stadium. Three complete Tar Heel teams shared honors. Stirnweiss marshalled the ground attack, and Lalanne operated the air forces.

Sanders, Washington and Lee. 1 Duquesne's Night Riders of foot. ball still are undefeated and untied -but they're glad their battle with State's Wolfpack is out of the way. The boys from Pittsburgh, highly favored to bowl the Techs, barely squeezed through with a 7-0 verdict although they gained a net of over 250 yards and dominated play through most of yesterday's contest in Riddick Stadium. The Night Riders--so named because they play nearly all their home games in the evening -tallied on a 25-yard pass, after six minutes of the second quarter.

The scoring play climaxed an advance begun at State's 45. An 11-yard gain by Allan Donelli, brother of the Duquesne head coach, featured the advance to the 25. And that same Allan Donelli pitched the touchdown pass. His 11-yard run had put Duquesne at the 29. Three line plays netted only four yards.
