Football

The Harvard Lampoon and the Princeton Tiger got out a joint issue. Over the stadium at Soldiers Field a plane wrote in smoke: "H. vs. P. Good friends." After the game, the two squads dined together. Accompanied by such amenities, the first Harvard v. Princeton football game in eight years found Harvard just where it was in 1926, when Princeton's Jake Slagle ran wild and his teammates were accused of using seal rings. A recovered fumble gave Harvard's Fred Moseley a chance to reach Princeton's 49-yd. line in the second quarter. That was the only time Harvard had the ball in its opponent's territory. A versatile Princeton backfield--Kadlic, Levan, Sandbach, Constable--used ground plays in the second period for one touchdown, switched to passes in the last for two more, 19-to-0.

Stalled for the first half, Minnesota's steamroller started rolling in the second. A homecoming crowd of 59,000 at Minneapolis saw Pug Lund spiral passes that averaged 44 yd., Stan Kostka batter Michigan's line to bits, Julius Alfonse scamper 76 yd. to a touchdown. Minnesota 34, Michigan 0.

Police reserves were on hand to prevent a riot by Communist students who threatened to break up a pre-game homecoming parade at University of California at Los Angeles. The only riot Los Angeles witnessed was started by Stanford's Grayson who gained 129 yd., made two of the touchdowns that smashed U. C. L. A., 27-to-0.

At Lexington, Alabama scored touchdowns in every period but the third, overwhelmed Kentucky, 34-to-14. At New Orleans, Tulane scored in every period but the second, won a hard-fought game from Mississippi, 15-to-0. Leading candidates to represent the South in New Orleans' "Sugar Bowl" game Jan. 1, Alabama's "Crimson Tide" and Tulane's "Green Wave" do not play each other this year.

Jinxed against Yale for 50 years, Dartmouth was nonetheless favorite last week. With the score 7-to-2, Yale's defense suddenly grew taut when Dartmouth reached Yale's 13-yd. line. When the whistle blew it was still Yale 7, Dartmouth 2.

Rice, unbeaten Southwest Conference leader, kept its slate clean by defeating Texas Arts & Industrial, 27-to-0.

A light, alert team with a superb back in Les Lindberg, Illinois blocked an Army kick in the first quarter, then settled down to defend a 7-point lead. Army got two chances to score, missed both. On a field so muddy that he had to dry the ball and his boot every time he wanted to kick. Lindberg's punts went where he wanted them. Illinois 7, Army 0.

Oregon State's Red Franklin threw a pass. Washington's Chuck Bond caught it, scuttled 36 yd. for a fourth-period touchdown. It gave his team the game, 14-to-7, a chance to settle the Conference title with Stanford this week.
