There was a groan from the L. S.

U. supporters among the crowd of 0C0 when Y. A. Tittle, the Tigers brilliant quarterback, limped off the field after the second half kickoff. But Charlie Pevey, the sophomore ball-handler who has had little opportunity to play because of endurance, proved more than adequate.

He threw a 40-yard pass to Abner Wimberly for Louisiana first touchdown midway of the third period, and games seen here tivs year. During the first three quarters the play hinged principally on the kicking of Tulane's Leonard Finley and Billy Parker. Neither team had noticeable trouble getting deep into the other's backyard, but once there they appeared to lose interest in the situation. The fourth quarter was horse of a different garage. rumors the Ivy League lias been asked to squelch, but does anyone really believe that no athlete at those respected institutions of learning ever gets financial id outside his own family? It seems hard to believe, though this writer can state only two certain facts on the subject: (1) That not one of the numerous requests for contributions received in 20 years as a Princeton lumnus ever has carried the faintest suggestion of And that a friend in the coaching fraternity has said repeatedly that all the Ivy colleges, including the one at which he served briefly, are on the subject of aid to athletes.

Tiie game had been postponed from Friday night because of a severe rain storm. The invading Bengals showed a classy offense sparked by Perry Fisher, Robert Nelson, and and a stellar line, le Joe Love, Stevens, and ing opportunities. Neville resorted to trickery to get their first touchdown when McElroy got away on a fake punt to pay dirt, but they hammered the Lions into submission to get the last three, one by Fisher and two by McElroy. Lafayette kicked off to start the game, and the early part of the quarter was strictly a punting duel and a testing of line plays with neither club gaining an advantage until midway of the period when McElroy dropped back into punt formation, faked a kick, and raced 42 yards around right end to score. Bucky McElroy, Tommy Phillips placekick for the point by Dnvid Kahn, failed.

The dueling with punts continued in the second quarter until Lafayette finally started moving and powered to the Neville 25 only to lose the ball nn a fumble. Sam Shepard, Tiger end, then got away for 24 yards on an end-around sweep. McElroy passes twice, to Shepard and Sioney Smallwood, to put the hall deep in Lafayette Gardiner territory, but then the Bengals lost the ball on a fumble and the half ended with the Tigers leading, 6 to 0. Lafayette took the kickoff opening the second half, was held to a standstill by the fard fighting Tiger line and had to punt out with Phillips returning the kick 15 yards to his own 48. Perry Fisher, who was unable to show anything much in the first half, finally opened up in the second and cutting sharply toward the sideline, stepped on the gas for a 46-yard trip to 14.

On the first play from scrimmage Forbes picked up another yard, then Doug Belden hit End Joe Chesser with a touchdown pass. Lazarous Lewis kicked the point. The game was tied and the fans were fit to he. On several occasions in this heated windup of what began as a listless contest, the players became interested enough to incur unnecessary-rough ness penalties. Standout lineman of the contest was Tom Bishop, who played a topflight game on both defense and offense and remained in the Tulane secondary so consistently that observers expected him to he invited in for at least one Tulane huddle.

A1 Herbet really hooked the Tarpons. He ran 79 and 64 yards for touchdowns, and set up another score with a 56-yard jaunt.

The rain held off until the end of the third period, and by then it was too late to help Fortier. The weather wasn't so accommodating at Bogalusa, where the home team nipped Lstrouma, 12 to 6, in a thriller. The field was so wet that the markers were obliterated, and officials once had to use the chain to measure from the goal post so that they could tell whether Bogalusa actually scored a point after touchdown on a running play. Most of the 7,500 spectators refused to be driven home by the downpour and they had their reward. A1 Burr scored the first Bogalusa touchdown cn an 82-yard run.
