Football

Negro Oze Edward Simmons, son of a Fort Worth janitor, arrived at the University of Iowa on a freight train, enrolled in the class of 1937, worked his way by washing cars. As a freshman, he ran through the entire Iowa varsity six times in one afternoon of football practice. As a sophomore, he was the star of an Iowa team that sometimes gave him half-hearted support. Last week, speedy, swivel-hipped, elusive Oze Simmons snaked through Illinois for a 71-yd. run & touchdown in the second period. Captain Dick Crayne made two more in the last, kept Iowa undefeated, 19-to-0.

The best Notre Dame team since Knute Rockne gave Navy a businesslike beating, 14-to-0.

Army's triple-threat. Charles ("Monk") Meyer, played through the full 60 minutes, ran for one touchdown, passed for the other that beat Yale for the fourth year in a row, 14-to-8.

Leading 21-to-0 four seconds before the game ended. California, unscored on this season, tried to punt behind its own goal line. Southern California blocked the kick for a touchdown, 21-to-7.

Alabama's Rose Bowl champions got started when Center Kay Francis intercepted a pass, rallied to spoil Georgia's undefeated record, 17-to-7.

Rated 1-to-10. Indiana popped across a touchdown in the first three minutes. Ohio State's Joe Williams trotted into the game, helped get the situation under control, 28-to-6.

Cornell's chances of winning a game this season grew slimmer against Princeton, 0-to-54.

Major game in the Southwest Conference was Rice v. Texas at Austin. Between halves, Jesse Jones, Governor Allred, Elliott Roosevelt put on sweaters to lead a snake dance. Distinguished by frantic forward passing, long penalties for roughing, clipping and slugging, four touchdowns in the last quarter, it ended 28-to-19, for Rice.

Two field goals by Stanford's James ("Monk") Moscrip in the first quarter upset Washington, 6-to-0.

Still up to the record of last year's super-team, Minnesota rallied in the last half when a substitute halfback named "Tuffy'' Thompson made two touchdowns against Northwestern, 21-to-13.

Almost as strong on defense as it is weak on attack. Harvard made one first down to Dartmouth's 17. lost 6-to-14.

In San Francisco, mortgage bondholders on St. Mary's College, which has been largely supported by its football team, talked gloomily of foreclosing. A 13-to-0 victory against University of San Francisco made it look as if this year's team may draw enough to help pay the interest, keep St. Mary's going.

On a steamy field under a sweltering sun, Chuck Cheshire of University of California at Los Angeles: 1) caught a shovel pass and ran 43 yards to a touchdown; 2) tossed a pass to Funk for another; 3) ran 81 yards for a third through the entire Oregon team. The U. C. L. A. rooting section, which had spent the half-time making card-formation pictures of a bear eating a duck, went home feeling sure that nothing in the rest of their schedule will keep the team out of the Rose Bowl if they can beat California this week. U. C. L. A. 33, Oregon 6.

After three scoreless periods, a forward pass for a 70-yd. gain redeemed Carnegie Tech's record, spoiled Purdue's in the week's biggest upset. 7-to-0.
