Tex John Crow, a churning giant with a football, led Texa.s to a 19-6 victory over ever threatening Southern Methodist Saturday night to keep the No. 1 team atop the Southwest Conference The mighty Crow blasted the SMU line for 44 yards in a 6 yard Aggie drive that put them ahead in the third period to give its eighth straight triumph of the season. Crow gamed 89 yards running with the ball, played a brilliant defensive game, intercepting a pass to stop last desperate effort, and all in all was probably the outstanding player in any conference game this year.

A crowd of 28.000 that sat in 54-degree weather cheered the great Aggie halfback and enjoyed it when Crow kicked the extra point after the final touchdown. Loyd Taylor had failed on the previous first misses of the season in the try for conversion. Don Meredith, the brilliant sophomore, put up a terrific battle against the mighty Aggies and it was his passing and running that kept the Methodists in the game until the final minutes.

The fourth-ranked Spartans out- rushed Notre Dame by 221 yards as they scored five times in the final three periods after the first period was scoreless.

Michigan State stayed on the ground all the way as it marched 46 yards for the first score of the game in the second period.

They scored two more touchdowns before the pe -1 rnxi ended and recovered a fumble at the Notre-Dame 19 on the last I play of the period to set the stage for their final score. 82-Vard Notre Dame averted a shutout in the closing minutes when quarterback Bob Williams took to the air in a 82-yard march and finally plunged a foot to score after his aerials had set up the score. After touchdown, Notre Dame marched to the Spartan 15 before fumbling. Michigan State recovered and six pley.s later, Johnson broke through the middle and sprinted .50 yards for his second touchdown of the game. Two plays later, Kowalezyk recovered a fumble at midfield.

A penalty moved Michigan State back but Ninowski passed 59 yards to 1 Sammy Williams at the Notre Dame 5. Blanche Martin earned over on the next play.
