Knn.M ftrnrinc: TnarhiliaM H.m. Brandelrrv, Convmluni kunrk LAWRENCE, Kan, (U.R) The football power that is Okla- homa smashed Kansas, 42 to 20, Saturday with crafty Quarterback Eddie Crowder calling a near-perfect game. The charged-up Kansans, boasting perhaps one of the best teams jin their history, battled valiantly after jumping off to a quick 7-0 lead. Oklahoma, which has yet to lose to a Big Seven Conference oppo- nent in six years under Coach Bud Wilkinson, hammered Kansas into near helplessness as the game wore into the final periods. WHILE KANSAS was brilliant in spots, Oklahoma rolled along the ground and flashed through the air with deadly method.

All-America Center Tom Catlln was everywhere on defense, while Crowder was baffling Kansas defenders and 40,000 fans with his mastery of Jhe split T. Oklahoma led at half time. 21 to 13, and Kansas held some hope. The Sooners raged back to trade touchdowns with Kansas in the third period and then added a crushing pair of touchdowns in the final period. Bruising Buck McPhail and scampering Billy Vessels shared Oklahoma's offensive load with Crowder when Buddy Leake left the game with an ankle injury.

8 Fumbles Help Irish Jolt Purdue Continued from First Sports Page from the Purdue 7 early In the third quarter after Purdue's second kickoff fumble. The miss looked serious after Flowers pulled down his second touchdown pass to cut the Irish lead to 6 points. But Worden's fourth-quarter one-yard touchdown plunge after the Carey-Hunter pass took off the pressure. Purdue no longer could win with a touchdown and extra point. Purdue had time for seven attempted passes, on two of which Evans couldn't get rid of the ball.

It wound up in mid-field at the final gun. STATISTICS I.

(JP) A 95-yard downfield march and a spectacular punt blocked by Sophomore Guard John Zlek pro vided West Virginia with the spark to roll over Washington and Lee by a 31-13 margin in a Southern Conference game. 15-0.

Then it was Billy Wells, ten. Follow with Wayne Bens son. 4-0. Bolden became the Spar tan's only scoring repeater, 41-0. b-uore Bert Zsgeis racked up the last one to give State its 4S points.

THE SPAKT.WS scored so rapidly that the boys in the press box didn't have a chance to eat their apples from Spartan orchards. But the Spartans on the field didn't go huncrv. Thev ate up yardage and Syracuse nt the same time. Syracuse had its own rooting section, 500 stronjj. Their fans had a long ride for so few cheers.

The wearers of the Orange had pumpkin head gears, white shirts and orange pants. The way Spartan tacklers were up- ending their ball carriers, they looked like orange popsickles most of the time, 9 BACK IX THE 1920's, a show titled "The Boys from Syracuse" was a smash hit as a musical comedy. The 1952 revival had too many sour notes for any rave notices. It took Syracuse 19 minutes to make a first down. They liked the feeling.

They promptly made three more in a row as they rolled 43 yards for their, longest drive of the day. The crowd started chanting "we want Willie." They meant Willie Thrower. They got him with one minute and 63 seconds left In the first hair. He raced the clock down to eight secoqds on three runs and two passes before his second 4 ss was Intercepted on the nine. Willie came back in the third period.

He handed the bull to Bolden on the first play. Zip 29 yards another touchdown. GUESS YOU'D really have to say that Michigan State is slipping. Last week, the Spartans clobbered Texas A. M.

48 to 6. This time it was 48 to 7. Those 06 points by State, incidentally, gave Coach Biggie Munn the biggest total score in two successive games since he came this way back in 1947. It c7in't be said that Biggie tried to run up Uie score on Syracuse where he coached in '46. He used 61 players.

That is exactly 20 more men than Notre Dame has on its entire roster. THE' SPARTANS were in a generous mood early in the second period. Syracuse was back in its own territory and the Spartans refused exactly 20 yards in penalties against the Orange although the ball.finally wound up on the 15-yard line. Hardest time the Spartans had scoring all afternoon came at the end of the third period. They had to "go" exactly 98 yards although the ball was on the Syracuse two-yard line.

The hike was brought about of course, by the fact that the gun made them change goals. In their last two games, the Spartans have slashed out an awesome total of 641 yards on the ground. They made 283 rushing last week and then added 358 Syracuse. more here against Good Record CHAPEL HILL, N. C.

Holy Cross battered Brown with touchdowns in every period as it extended its unbeaten streak with a 46-0 victory before 7,500 fans in perfect football weather at Fitton Field. The powerful Crusaders, rated the strongest team In New England, cut gaping holes In the feeble Crown line for a nifty assortment of runners and huckers and opened the way for the aerials of luickln' Charlie Maloy, their All-Amerlcan candidate quarterback.

It was the fourth successive win for Holy Cross and the third defeat in a row for Brown which was no match for Holy Cross' experienced linemen and talented array of backs.

With the ball on the Syracuse 17, Detroiter Dick Panin drove 14 yards and Leroy Bolden picked up the last three for the touchdown. Munn came out with his remi- lars again at the start of the mira penoa. rney picked up a quick touchdown on a 60-yard march, with Wayne Benson hammering over from the 13-yard line.

That boosted the score to 34 to 0 and marked the last appearance of the regulars. DON KAUTH, sophomore end, recovered one of Syracuse's seven fumbles to provide the next scoring chance. He pounced on a bobble by Bill Moll on the Syracuse 29-yard line. The elusive little Bolden needed only one play to eat up that distance. He scooted around right end, picked his wav clear of the secondary and raced untouched to the goal line.

The Spartan's last touchdown seventh and came when ARKANSAS MOWED Bill Powell Jimmy Sears Paul Cameron Don Ht'inrich Those are the names in the headlines on the Pacific Coast where all favorites ram through Saturday with these victories: California ever Santa Clara, 27 to Southern Cal over Oregon State, 28 to UCLA over Stanford, 24 to 14, and Washington over Oregon, 49 to 0. POWELL POWERED for three touchdowns as California remained undefeated. It took the Bears just three plays for the first one, and he carried every time. In the fourth period he ran 17 and seven yards for the others. Johnny Olszewski, Cal's All-America eandidate, got the other tally.

Simla Clara, whose stubborn forward wall was chiefly responsible for California's most unimpressive showing of the year, ripped through the Bear first-stringers to score In the third period. Jack Kaplan scored to make it 14 to 7 a that point. Sears, Who usually plays on defense, popped up on Southern California's offensive platoon enough to score one touchdown and pass for two others against Oregon State. BUT SEARS was the goat at first. He fumbled the opening kickoff and Oregon State scored on the second play when VVally Johnson ran the last 14 yards.

Then Sears went to work. lie hit George Bozanich on a 51-yard pass play for a touchdown and sprinted five yards for another before the first period ended. In the third stanza he tossed an 18-yarder to Ron Miller in the end zone. Cameron pitched three touchdown strikes as UCLA defeated Stanford before 80,617 fang for the Bruins' fifth in a row. IKE JONES caught two of Cameron's scoring tosses one foi 43 yards and the other for two to make it 14 to 7 in the first period.

Minutes later Cameron hit Don Stalwick on an eight-yard TD throw for the clinching points. Hcinrich and his Washington aerial circus set two Pacific Coast Conference records while riddling Oregon. Three of Heinrich's throws went for touchdowns to bring his col-1 lege total to 27, three more than! the old mark which he shared with UCLA's great Bob Waterfield. The victorious Huskies also set a record for pass interceptions by pulling in nine Oregon tosses. The old conference record was seven.

Munn had a backfield composed of Willie Thrower, Bernie Ra-terink, Bert Zagers and Slonac in operation. Another fumble recovery by Kauth gave Michigan State the ball on the Syracuse 29. Mixing Thrower tosses and clever running by the other three backs, the Spartans moved to the one, from where Zagers slammed over. SYRACUSE'S lone touchdown came early in the fourth period It climaxed a 74-yard drive, but had a flukey climax. With the ball on the Spartans' 28, Stark passed to Mark Hoff man, who fumbled the ball.
