Maroons to a cmsh inf 19. victwry over Mississippi Unl versity her today before 25,000 fans. It was the largest crowd ever to witness a football fame in Mississippi, gathered in expectation of a close game between two of the country' outstanding teams. But from the time State took the opening kickoff and arched to a touchdown in the first minute, the issue was never in doubt. State's charging line which opened yawning holes for the backs frustrated the Oie Mm nmnng ttteck and bottled up the famous scoring boya, Mwle Hapes and Junior Hovious.

Not until the final period, when State was 19 points to the good, did Ole Mis get past the Maroon 40 yard line. Then Hovious passes and a 56 yard cutback off tackle by Hapes took the oval to the State 24, but pass interceptions ended both threats. Besides the scoring marches State drove many times deep Into Ole Miss territory but a stiffening Rebel line ad failing passing attack kept the score down. Buddie Elrbd at end and Hunter Cor hern at guard led the State line. Elrod's blocking opened up many of Johnson's off tackle gains, Corhern cleared the way for Tullos and both the linemen were constantly in the way of Rebel backs.

State got 17 first downs, gained 224 net yards rushing and 88 passing. Ole Miss made eight first downs and, thanks largely to the last period attack, made 108 yartfs on the ground end lit through the air. Each team intercepted three passes. Two long kick off returns help State to touchdowns. Walter Craig's 55 yard run back started the drive to the first and Wilbur Dees opened the second half with an 83 yard return to tlie Ole Miss six.

Craig's run placed the ball on the Rebels' 39. Johnson hit right tackle for five, then went through the same spot for 23. Tulloa picked up three, Johnson got six and then Tulle rammed left guard for the last two yards. Wilbur Dees place kicked the extra point. Bob Price, sub center, intercepted a pass by Hovious to give State the ball on Ole Miss' 42 and start the second touchdown maxh.

Three running plays and an off sides penalty brought a first down on the 29. and after a clipping penalty had nullified long pass from Johnson to Granville Harrison, Harvey cut back off right tackle for 73 yards to the four. Johnson was held at left tackle. Billy Jefferson went into the game and after smiting right guard for yard passed to Blond Black on the goal Lne. Dees' place kick tailed.

Tullos fumbled the second half kick off on State's 18 yard line but Dees picked up on the 11, and as his mates put vicious blocks on the Rebels he ran down the east sideline until John Pivaimik caught his shoulders and brought him down on the Ole Miss six. Johnson bit right guard for half the distance, then right tackle for the rest. Lake Roberson blocked Dees' attempt to place kick, A light rain, which fell steadily for much of the last three periods, hampered both teams in passing. v. Lineups: Mississippi Pee.

The high flying Eagles, wnose supporters were lamenting the absence of Gene Goodreault, their great right end, from the lineup for the first time in his collese career, found ample cause for reioirintf in the perform ances of Charlie Rourke and Frank Maznickt in the Boston becgfield.

Rourke gave another convincing all America performance as he spark ed two Boston touchdown drives witn his bullet like passing and his tricky running. He scored himself on the niftiest piece of running of the afternoon when he cut back sharply throueh tackle and tallied from 15 yards out, feinting several Auburn de fenders out of danger along tne rome. Maznicki scored twice, first on the receiving end of a 41 yard pass from O'Rourke, which he took over his shoulder as he romped across the Auburn line with the nearest defender three yards away. His second came on the first play of tfie fourth period, a routine six yard off tackle dash after the Eagles had marched 41 yards. Rourke i score came at the close of spectacular march from kick off in the third nertod.

It required just eight plays and four minutes to com plete and it KourJte stuiea nis steel spring arm to prove that he was great running back by covering 50 of the TO yards personally.
