; Beat Duke 7-3
ly Pass Attack
93,000 Pferaona Stand
As Southern California
Stages Last Minute Rally
By Henry McLeinore
United PH-sk Correspondent
ROSE BOWL, Pasadena, Jan.
2—With fewer seconds left to
play than a breath can be held,
Southern California's Trojans
struck magnificently through
the air today to defeat an inspir-
ed buke eleven 7 to 3 before 93,-
000 persons in the Rose Bowl.
Duke went into the last min-
ute of the final period with a
three to nothing lead, scored on
a perfect field kick eaHier in the
game.
You could have written your
own ticket on the Trojans when
with the game almost over,
they took one of Tipton's boom-
ing pUrtts and faced the Duke
goal line, Bl yards away.
If it was Nave who climaxed
the winning drive, it was Lan-
sdell who set it off. Running
beautifully, he charged to two
first downs and then faded back
to Whip a pass to Peoples on
Duke's 34.
There was little more than
a minute to go now, ahd Duke
still seemed safe. Then Nave,
who lacks 100 minutes of hav-
ing enough playing time to earn
a letter this year, trotted on to
the field. He must have been
behind the stadium, in the bull-
pen, warming up his chunking
arm because he came out hot-
ter than a burglar's pistol. He
| | was a combination of Sammy
> > Baugh, Davey O'Brien and Lefty
Grove. He took the football in
his hands and threw four per-
ls feet strikes to Krueger, the gal-
loping boy who wrecked Notre
Dame.
The first strike was good for
1; eight yards.
He eluded the Dukes who

NEW YORK — (UP) — The
great Don Budge will reveal to
the sports world tonight whe-
ther he is a man or super-man
as he faces one of the sternest
tests ever to confront any tennis
player.
On a brilliantly illuminated
green canvas court in Madison
Square Garden, this slender, red-
headed lad from Oakland, Calif.,
will make his professional de-
but against Ellsworth Vines, rat-
ed by some experts as the most
formidable racquet wielder of
all time.
Budge, king of the world's
amateur courts and America's

hailed as a super-man indeed if
he can triumph over the lanky

Utah Lambasts
New Mexico By
26-to-0 Score
Utes Swarm Through
New Mex. Line Almost
At Will In Sun Bowl
EL PASO — (UP) — A pow-
erful university of Utah foot-
ball squad riddled New Mexi-
co university's line almost at
will in the annual Sun Bowl
game Monday and piled up a 26
to 0 score.
It was a heavier line— almost
nine pounds to the man—that
gave Utah its advantage. The
Utah forward wall opened gap-
ping holes for halfbacks Tom
Pace and Fred Gehrke and full-
back Ray Peterson. Utah scor- j
ed twice in the first period and j
once each in the second and j
fourth.
The game was played before
a near-capacity crowd of 13,- j
050 under bright skies and a hot J
sun.
Coach Ike Armstrong's Utes
piled up 379 yards from scrim-
mage to New Mexico's 179. Not
only was the Ute rushing at-
tack far superior, but the Red-
skins stopped New Mexico's
touted passing attack.
Coach Ted Shipkey's men
completed seven passes for 59
yards, and lost four more on
Utah interceptions. Utah com-
pleted three for 18 yards.
New Mexico did not threaten
to score. Utah first showed its
power in the middle of the
first quarter. Irwin Crandall,
fullback, and Pace went from
their own 42 to the Lobo 15.
Ten Ray Davis lateraled to
Pace, who skirted right end
for the counter. Capt. Barney
McGarry converted.
Near the end of the quarter,
Peterson intercepted a New
Mexico pass from Finley Mae-
Gillivray, Lobo halfback, and
raced 60 yards to a touchdown.
No one got close to him.
In the second, Utah again
showed its power with a 57-yard
drive. Peterson plunged over
from the six-inch line. B. Mc-
G:rry failed to add the point.
Pace starred again in the
third with a 06-yard run through
the New Mexico line. The Lo-
bos, however, showed defensive
strength for the first time, and
held Utah on the 1.3.
Gehrke led Utah's touchdown
drive in the fourth quarter.
Five plays took the ball from
Utah's 38 to the Lobo 10 before
Gehrke skirted right end for the
score. Leonard McGarry failed
to make the extra point.

Gaels Defeat Red Raiders 20-13 But After Leading By
20-0 In 3d They Are Almost Beaten In Final Period
COTTON BOWL, Dallas —
(UP) — St. Mary's Galloping
Gaels galloped over and around
Texas Tech's aerial Red Raiders
and won the third annual Cot-
ton Bowl football game, 20 to
13.
For three periods the superior
power of the Gaels kept them
in control of the game and en-
abled them to score their touch-
downs. But when the Raiders
took to the air in "the fourth
quarter the 36.000 fans were lift-
ed bodily out of their seats
and a series of passes gave
the Texans two touchdowns and
barely missed another.
Looked Like Cinch
For 45 minutes the game
looked like a cinch for Slip
Madigan's Gaels from Califor-
nia, but when Cene Barnett
started heaving his long pas-
ses, nobody knew until the
final gun just how the contest
was going to end. It was a
fast finish for a routine ball
game but the most powerful
team won.
The game was only four min-
utes gone when Eddie Heffern-
an scored St. Mary's first touch-
down. "Hellzapoppin" is Hef-
fernan's nickname, and the Red
Raiders found out it was a good
one.
The Gaels got their chance
when Ralph Jack intercepted a
Texas Tech pass giving St.
Mary's the ball on Tech's 37
yard line.
The Gaels hit the line with a
couple of feelers that picked
up six yards. Then Mike Perrie
got away for a 15-yard gain. Lou
Rimassa was held for no gain
on the next play, but on the
following play Heffernan shot
around right end, galloped to
the goal line and crossed it
standing up. Perrie converted.
Mike Klotovich, the spark-
plug of the Gaels famous sec-
ond team—which is sadly mis-
named, since it has outscored
the starters all season—made
the second touchdown, in the
second period.
Intercepted Pass
St. Mary's opened the period
with the ball on Tech's 18-yard
line. The Californians were held
for three plays, but on fourth
down Klotovich scampered
around right end for a 14-
vard gain. Harry Aronson hit
the line for variety's sake and
to throw Tech offbalance. Then
Klotovich shot for the right end

Trail At Half
Game, However, lielunged
To Christians From The
First Passing Play
TULANE STADIUM, New Or-
leans (UP)—Little Davey O'Bri-
en passed a gallant Carnegie
Tech football team dizzy Monday
to give Texas Christian univer-
sity a 15-7 victory in the fifth
annual Sugar Howl game, play-
ed before more than 50,000 per-
sons.
The 150-pound quarterback,
unanimous choice for All-Ameri-
ca honors, lived up to every ex-
pectation as he hurled one
touchdown aerial, set up an-
other with a pass, and then
put the game on ice with a
field goal.
It wasn't T.C.U.'s game all
the way. The fighting Tartans
from Pittsburgh were leading
7 to 6 at. the half.
T.C.U., southwest conference
champion which rolled through
a tough 10-game schedule unde-
feated and untied, was a 2-to-5
favorite to win and it didn't
disappoint backers. The Horned
Frogs outplayed the Techmen
in every department".
Outweighed by T.C.L'.
Outweighed almost 25 pounds
per man, the easterners out-
fought the Christians in the
first half, but the Texans' su-
perior weight took its toll in
the second half, and Carnegie
only could go down fighting.
The first time T.C.U. got the
ball it put on a sustained drive
to Tech's 13-yard line, but Car-
negip held and batted down one

of O'Brien's passes to take the
ball on downs and punt out of
danger. Carnegie never got more
than six yards inside T.C.U. ter-
ritory in the first period.
T.C.U. opened up the scoring
in the second session when
O'Brien set up touchdown with
a 16-yard pass to Earl Clark
that carried to the Tech four.
O'Brien ducked off tackle to
the one and Fullback Connie
Sparks smashed over center for
the score. It left the score 6-0
as O'Brien failed lo convert.
Carnegie Comes Back
Carnegie came right back to
take the lead, Merlyn Conuit tak-
ing the kickoff on the 12 and
running back to the 36 to start
a drive across the goal line, lie
thre<V a 22-yard pass to right
end Ted Fisher. George Muha
gained four, then after both
teams had suffered five-yard
penalties, Pete Moroz, substitut-
ing at fullback for Jack Lee,
pitched a 35-yard aerial to Mu-
ha, who caught il oil the two
and stepped over. Muha convert-
ed to give Carnegie Tech the
lead.
Two perfectly executed pass-
es gave T.C.U. its second touch-
flown ■early in the third period.
Taking the ball on the 20, alter
Gondii had punted across the
T.C.U. goal line, O'Brien pitch-
ed a shoulder-high pass to
Connie Sparks good for 35 yards.
After one running play failed to
gain and one pass fell incom-
plete, Davey loosed another aer-
ial that Horner caught on the

The west's first touchdown
was executed by Patterson anel
Coughlan on the first play at
the start of the second period!
Coaches of each eleven had sent
in two new teams and the west
had the ball on the east's 39-
yard for a first down.
Patterson faded back and sent
the ball spinning through the
air on its way toward Coughlan
deep in the east's territory.
Coughlan snared it. on the sev-
en-yard line, pivoted away from
the east's defenders and went
over the goal. Hulchins convert-
ed.

THE ENGLISH SPRINGER SPANIEL (above) is speedy, agile. He has
a highly developed nervous system. In fact, it's remarkably similar
to our own... complex, sensitive. But, unlike so many humans, this dog
doesn't ABUSE his nerves. Nor does any dog. When a dog feels tired,
he rests INSTINCTIVELY! We humans often let our will-power
whip us on, deaf to the warning that nerves are getting frayed. Yet
how much more pleasant, profitable life can be when nerves are
rested now and then. Try it...break the tension...LET UP—LIGHT
UP A CAMEL! You'll welcome Camel's mildness—rich, ripe flavor.
Smokers find Camel's costlier tobaccos soothing to the nerves.
YOU CAN TELL by Carl Dossey's big smile that while he's resting his nerves
— letting up and lighting up a Camel —he's also enjoying the mildness and
rich flavor of a supremely enjoyabl'.- cigarette — finer, MORE EXPENSIVE
TOBACCOS! Carl says: "Camels lead with cow-punchers."
