11 The Little Brown Jug went back to Minneapolis where- it has been since 1934. The University of Minnesota football team earned the right to take it back by virtue of trouncing Michigan soundly, 20 to 7, in the Stadium here this afternoon before 64,945 spectators. It marked Minnesota's sixth straight victory over the Wolverines. It also waa Michigan's second Big Ten setback in a row and gave the team a record of two victories and two defeats in conference competition. Michigan hopes had been high that the Wolverines might wrest the Jug from the Gophers today, because until this afternoon Minne.

sota hadn't won a game since tho opener with lowly Arizona. But the Gophers, steadily Improving though losing to Nebraska, Ohio State and Northwestern, and tying with Purdue, hit a new 19.19 high for morale, blocking, tackling and running with the ball. Van Every, Franck Star Minnesota presented several halfbacks who were just too much for Michigan. They were Harold Van Every, senior triple threat Gopher, the signal caller and the Minnesota man who put the Gophers out in front in the first quarter with a touchdown. The other was George Franck, a Gopher track star and an excellent punter and punt handler.

Minnesota led Michigan, 7 to 0, at half-time, and then Franck cut Inside the Michigan left end and ran 58 yards to a second Gopher touchdown early in the third period. Then Bruce Smith, a Minnesota sophomore back who already has the earmarks of a typical Gopher line-smasher and open field runner, personally conducted a 74-yard Minnesota power parade through Michigan's line. He State Harriers Finish Santa Clara Defeats O'Rourke started his firing midway in the opening period with a five-yard aerial to Vito Ananis that set the stage for the opening touchdown a few moments later, Ananis going inside right guard for the score. Aerial Decides Game t'nrly In the second period, O'Rourko tossed a 14-yard aerial to End Gene Goodreault In the fnd zone for a touchdown. Then just after the final period opened, he put the game on ice with a pass to Ananis in the end zone.

The Titans put up a valiant battle. Twice they came from tchind to tie the score and with a little luck in the final period would have gone ahead. When the Eagles invaded the Udium they brought with them powerhouse attack that had arned them an average net gain M. S. C.

Eighteen thousand fans, sitting In almost summer-like weather, saw a contest which opened practically as a rout end up as a bitter struggle.

The Badgers, fighting to the last second, made a gallant final period bid which carried them to the Illinois one-foot line just as the final gun exploded. It was Smith who made the game-saving tackle. The lone scoring play came with startling suddenness, Illinois being in possession at its own 18 after taking a punt.

On the first play Smith faded back to pass. Unable to find a receiver, he ran towards the sidelines. There he apparently was trapped by four Badgers but, with a brilliant exhibition of twisting, dodging and sidestepping, he broke away Into the open and then outran every one on the field, crossing the goal-line 25 yards ahead of his closest pursuer.
