-Wacoj Oct. 81 (AP)—
Baylor lode high in the ranks
of the nation’s undefeated
teams smothering Texas
Christiaii 40 to 14 with a po
tent offepM and • tight defennc
«t Municipal Stadium Saturday.
Texan . Chrlatlah’a Llndy Barry
' had a bod off day. Baylor’* Adrian
Burk ntid hia pa*a«*natching mate*
Were at their best, and that wa*
the ball game.
* Baylor counted with one touch
down in the first period, three in
a big second quarter, one each in
the third fourth, plus a safety in
the second to r give the Horned
Frogs second setback in South
west Conference plfcy.
A Christian fumble early ip the
game and a recovery by Tackle
'Wesley Roberts led to; Baylor’s
first touchdown. Big Frank Body-
j etun rammed through from the
] nine to score. Frank Dickerson’s
| placement was wide.
Burk Pass Sparks
Baylor drove 67 yards to score
* the next touerdown. It was touch
ed off by a 27-yard pass from Burk
to Dudley Parker, standing clear
in the end zone, gave the surging
t Bruiqa another tally. Burk then
passed^ 42 yards to James Jeffrey
on T C U’s three and Bodystun
N again powered over for the score.
Both tries for extra point failed.
Tackle Rupert Wright tackled
Otis McKelvey of TCU in the end
zone for a safety and two more
' _ points. 1 A pass from Burk to Ison
* and a misled conversion attempt
ran th^. Baylor total to 33.
Bears Hold Margin
That 33 to 0 margin held through
the third period. Baylor was using
many reserve* and the Frogs
,; r
surged back for two
the last quarter. The
44-yard drivel climaxed by r
pass from fl^oy Ballinger
Elliott; Homer I.udikcr’i
kick was good.
Baylor sejond another
down in thg final frame af
covering a^-TCU fumble on
Louis Gajdosik plunged over
Dickerson’s placement was
Then Froggie Marshall Alford
blocked Larry Isbell’s punt and
Keith Flowers ran 34 yards for
a TCU score, with Ludiker’s
placement again perfect for the
extra point.
Burk completed 111 of 11) passes
attempted for total yardage df 102.
Only one of his passes was in
tercepted.

Berry Unsuccessful
■
Berry was able to( connect only
on two of 11 tries fop 16 yards,
but six interceptions of Berry’s
pitches were a tribute to a heads-
up pass defense that throttled the
vaunted Christian attack.'
But it wasn’t all Burk for Baylor.
The air-minded Bruins total yards
gained by aid was 216, and they
powered for 121 oh the ground.
TCU netted 61 yards by passes and
a scant 26 on the ground.
The Christians threatened sev
eral times, but miscues and! just-
missed passes hurt badly. Early
in the game a long heave from
Dan Wilde to Snake Bailey was
definitely off stride.
Bill Moorman blocked a Baylor
kick early in the fourth period,
TCU winding up with the ball on
the Baylor three. The Baylor line
refused to budge in four plays
and that’s the way the ball game
went all afternooni.

Kyle Rote, Southern s Methodist
halfback, luul taken a pass and
skipped to! tlfe touchdown -thatj
tied the score. It waa 6-6. Only)
because Ralph Blakely, Southern
Methodist Wlngman, had crashed
through toi block Ratidall Clay’S
try'for polnii.
Then the hushed throng of 75,♦
000 watched Walker as he stood
theie and aimed at the Texas goal
posts. Back came the hall am
Walker stepped into it. The ova
sailed like a bird between the
crossbars. That was the ball game
although Texas had the crowd iij
hysterics with drive after driv*
that carried deep, deep into South T
era Methodist territory.
Texas Threatens
Texas stqpned and passed, getj-
tirtg to thie Southern Methodist
three yard line with six minute$
to go, but Ray Borneman, key man
in the Longhorn drive, fumbled and
Grover Walker recovered for SMUL
Rote boomed a kick out to the
Southern Methodist 34 and then
Texas stymied in three tries, tried a
field goal. It was a fprlorn effort.
On the 391 yard mark, Ben Tomp
kins but his foot into the ball
but it didn’t even reach the SMU
goal line.
I Southeni Methodist was outplay
ed in everything except the score.
Most of the breaks went its way
and when Texas did get one it

Over Weekend
New York, Oct. 31 <A > i—Pitts
burg, Purdue and Tennessee were
rude guests today and dealt out
shocking college football upeets
to Pennsylvania, Minnesota and
North Carolina.
Pitt, ‘manhandled by a weak
Indiana team last week, bounced
Pennsylvania out of the ranks of
the undefeated, 22 to 21, on a
safety that was scored 38 seconds
before the game ended.
Purdue crushed both Minnesota’s
big ten title and Rose Bowl hopes
with a 13 to 7 victory.
North Carolina was subdued by
Tennessee, 36 to 6. Halfback Char
lie Justice was injured in the fray
but! be contributed mental and
physical errors before he was hurt
that helped the volunteers tri
umph. J
Other Results Expected
At virtually all the other sites
the football form held true.
Notre Dame, leader in the Asso
ciated Press’ weekly poll, cruised
easily past Navy, 40 to 0, with
Ernie Zalesjski the hero this time.
Oklahoma was held scorless for
a period before if settled down to
•destroy Iowa State, 34 to 7, with
five different Sooners scoring
touchdowns.
Army had no difficulty at all
with Virginia Military, 40 to 14,
but Kentucky waited until almost
the last minute to master little
Cincinnati, 14 to 7. Southern Meth
odist just got by Texas, 7 to 6,
with the convalescing Doak Walker
the deciding poiilt.
Fordham Wins Again
But there were some surprises.
Fordham announced its return to
the major ranks with a fourth
straight victory, this one 42 to 0
over a good Georgetown aggrega
tion. The Rams play equally un
beaten Army next Saturday.
Boston University continued its
victory skein with a 46 to 6 con
quest of Scrantoq.
Out in the Midlands there was
excitement galor^. Iowa was trail
ing Oregon, 24 to 6, with only
seconds to go in the third period.
The Hawkeyes unleased a scoring
attack that brought them to a 34 to
31 victory in thl* next nine min
utes.

ing the West Texas Red Raiders
from crossing the Rice 20-yard line
the entire game.

Both Rice first string guards

S. J. Ropcrts 'was kept on the

Hunted Only Once
The Owjls’ smoothly functioning
offense mhde it necessary for Rice

oint to make th<
the extra

m the
added
point to make the scora
20-to-0 with 10 minutes to play ip
the game.
Ags Come Back -
Dick Gardemal got the Ags
rolling after Arkansan' kickoff. Thy
Cadets were able to penetrate t{>
the Hogs' 34 yard line before
Gardemal was thrown for a lobg
loss back to the Hog 49. Arkansas,
after being unable to move the
ball, punted out of bounds on th)»
A&M ll-yard line. •[
! Gardemal dropped {back to pass
bn second down and shot one into
the flats where Porker Billy Bass
gathered it in and daished 18 yard*
down the sidelines for the scor*.
Thornton placed his third convei>
sion of the afternoon straight
through the uprights to make the
score 27 to 6.
Once again the Aggies advanced
deep into Hog territory, getting
as far as the 13-yard line oR
two passes from Gardemal to Whit
taker and a 15-yard penalty. Bqt
again the Cadets couldn’t take aq*
vantage of the situation as Gard^T
mal’s aerial was intercepted by an
Arkie, who snagged! it in the end
zone and raced back to thie six. :
Dugan Makes Run ' ^ j
, From this point tbe longest run
of the game took place as Hog
Joe Dugan, fourth string half
back, knifed his way off right
tackle, picked up his interference,
and raced 79 yards jto the 16-yaM
line before Billy Tidwell came frojn
behind to bring hinfi to the tunf.
After being unable to collect
any points from ground and aerial
attacks, (loach Barnhill sent
Thornton in to try for a :Hqg
field goal. The btdl sailed far
enough but barely missed being
good as it sliced orfito the left,
The Aggies then (ook over froin
their own 20 with only 40 *econd*
remaining In the Goff
swept left end for IP yards.
From thi* spot, they drew a 15
yard penalty for roughness. Aftpr
