The Other Six
Cyclone hopefuls, who kept
dreaming of previous tight Illinois-Iowa
State football games,
are now being told to relax.
There will be no element of
surprise on the side of the invading-
Biff Seven team when it
faces the Biff Ten and Rose
Howl champion at Champaign
this Saturday, A quick look at
history would serve to warn the
IUinl as apparently it has
that the Cyclones have had a
habit of being- "up" for the
game.
In 1927 the two teams fought
to a 12-12 draw, in 1930 It was
7-0 for Illinois, and in 1949 It was
20-20.
Definite proof of the desire
of the Illinois coach Ray Eliot
to overlook nothing in his vic
tory plans for his team came in
the press box at last week's
57-19 Cyclone win over South
Dakota State. Present were Leo
Johnson, one of the nation's
shrewdest scouts and by all odds
the greatest propagandist among
them, and Doug Mills, director
of athletics at Illinois.
Nor did either waste a moment
in beginning the buildup by which

Both pointed out how dangerous
and tough the cyclones scemea
to them and what a definite disad

There's sad news in Philadel
phia today. Little Bobby Shantz,
Philadelphia's answer to a thirty
game winner, suffered a broken
wrist in the A's game with Wash
ington, Tuesday. Shantz was up to
bat in the third inning when
pitcher Walt Masterson hit Bobby
on his pitching arm wrist.
Shantz, who left the game in
the third with a 3-0 lead, fin
ished the season with a 24-7
win, loss record, and that record
was compiled with a fourth
place team.
This could have an effect on the

Stuber, himself, was serious

Cyclones made and re-affirmed
his feeling for the need of a lot
of work this week. Improved

Indian Chances
For Flag Slim
Only the Cleveland die-hards
will still give the Indians a chance
to win the American League pen
nant. With New York rained out
yesterday at Boston the Indians
had a chance to gain one-half
game on the Yanks, but the hand
of fate grabbed Cleveland and
they received a whipping from
Chicago, 10-1.
Mike Garcia, one of Cleve
land's big three pitchers, was
rapped out of th box in the
fourth inning after the Chisox
had hit him for five runs. Wilks,
Gromek, and Brisse followed in
that order in an attempt to stop
the White Sox attack.
Cleveland has only three games
left while New York has six re
maining. All the Yanks have to do
is split their remaining contests
while the Indians are forced to
win all of their games to stay in
competition.
Dobson went all the way for
Chicago to get the win while
Garcia was tagged with the loss.

Big Seven
Rate High
By BART BROWN
Sports Staff Writer
Big Seven teams served notice
that they were to be feared on
a national basis Saturday. Out of
tne six Big seven teams tnat
opened their seasons, Missouri was
the only team to lose, and that
loss was experienced at the hands
of the team many sportswriters
picked to be tops in the nation,
Maryland.
The Tigers from Missouri
were edged in the final minute
on s pass by Jack Scarbath,
1 who passed for both Maryland
touchdowns. Missouri scored Its
touchdown in the second quar
ter when Tony Scardino passed
to Buddy Makin. Paul Fuchs
converted for the extra point.
-With a minute remaining in the
first half, Fuchs shot a 13-yard
field goal through the uprights,
thus the vastly under-rated Tigers
assumed a 10-0 half-time lead.
Early in the fourth quarter Scar
bath pitched to Ralph Felton for
the first Terp score. In the dying
seconds of the game Scarbath
spotted Lloyd Colteryann on Mis
souri's 26 yard line and hit him
for the winning touchdown.
The combination of an air
tight defense and former Army
star Gil Reich's passing led
Kansas University to an impres
sive 13-0 win over highly re
garded TCU. TCU's greatly
feared spread formation never
received a chance to function
properly against a hard charg
ing KU line. Kansas Coach Jules
Sikes was highly elated with
the defensive end play of Don
Bracelin and Morris Kay, which
he termed near perfect.
Gil Reich spurred the KU of
fense by his running and passing.
Early in the first quarter Reich
shot a pass to John Konek, who
scored, and in the fourth quarter
he passed to Bob Brandeberry,
who scored the second KU
counter.
Colorado scored a lack-luster
win over San Jose State in a
close 20-14 game. It was a
costly game for the Golden
Buffaloes, for pint-sized scat
back Woody Shelton received
injuries that will keep him out
of the crucial Oklahoma and
KU contests. Colorado couldn't
stop State fullback Dick Stults,
who scored both touchdowns
and ground out 177 yards in 22
plays. Hero of the game for
-MP-'; -ft
threw three passes complete to
average for pass completions
Gridders
in Motion
Colorado was Frank Bernardl,
who scored the winning touch
down on a 53 yard punt return.
Quarterback Dick Mann and
fullback Stan Cozzl each figured
jn three touchdowns as Iowa
State ground out a 57-19 win over
out-classed South Dakota State.
Mann passed for three touch
downs, while Cozzi rammed for
three Cyclone touchdowns on the
ground.
A stiff Kansas State defense
gave up only 76 yards to Bradley,
as the Aggies scored a 21-7 win.
Bradley succeeded in gaining only
33 yards rushing and 43 passing
against a determined Wildcat line.
Carl Albacker, 'Cat quarterback,
scored two touchdowns on short
sneaks over the goal line.
Nebraska's next foe, Oregon
University, proved itself sur
prisingly tough as UCLA ral
lied to win 13-6. Oregon's lone
score same when quarterback
Hal Dunham passed 38 yards to
halfback George Shaw to as
sume a 6-0 second quarter lead.
Standout player for Oregon was
big Emory Barnes, who was
playing his first college football
game. Time and time again he
stopped the UCLA attack single-handed.
In other top games of the day,
Villanova upset highly regarded
Kentucky 25-6, Georgia Tech
trounced the Citadel 54-6, Arkan
sas squeaked by Oklahoma A&M
22-20, and mighty Texas rapped
LSU 35-14.
Marciano
Wins Title
Rocky Marciano knocked out
Jersey Joe Walcott Tuesday night
to win the world heavyweight
boxing title. He floored the aging
champion in the 13th round of a
scheduled 15 round bout.
Marciano, who took severe
punishment from his larger op
ponent, was knocked to the can
vas in the opening round. He got
up to dish out plenty of hard
blows to Walcott, however, and
win the title. The new champ was
an 8-5 favorite to win the match.
