Scoreboard

> In college football, it was the week of the powerhouses. Texas strengthened its position as the nation's top-ranked team when, sparked by the breakaway running of Halfback James Saxton, it overwhelmed tough and bulky Baylor 33-7. While second-ranked Alabama smothered Richmond, third-ranked Ohio State, its bruising ground attack contained by stubborn Indiana, turned to such innovations (for Ohio State) as forward passes, to win 16-7 and remain tied for Big Ten leadership with fifth-ranked Minnesota, which outrushed Iowa 16-9. Continuing its return to national prominence, fourth-ranked Louisiana State ran over strong North Carolina 30-0. Upsets soured some bowl hopes. Unbeaten Colorado fell to Utah 21-12; ninth-ranked Georgia Tech was surprised by a fired-up Tennessee 10-6. "We'll be home for Christmas,'' moaned Michigan State Coach Duffy Daugherty after Purdue edged his Spartans 7-6 in a jarring battle of defenses. In the east, Columbia, fielding its finest team since Lou Little's 1933 Rose Bowl Champions, beat Dartmouth 35-14 and moved into leadership of the Ivy League as Harvard unseated league-leading Princeton 9-7.

> In the tenth annual running of Washington, D.C.'s $100,000 International Stakes, Veteran Jockey Johnny Longden, on superbly conditioned TV Lark, shrewdly held back until the final turn to challenge Kelso (TIME, Nov. 10), the race's odds-on 2-5 favorite, then dueled down the stretch to come in ahead of Kelso by three-quarters of a length in a surprising 2:26 1/3--nearly two seconds below the race record for the mile-and-a-half classic.

> Bowing to mounting pressure, the Professional Golfers Association finally abolished its 45-year-old rule that barred Negroes and other nonwhites from full P.G.A. membership.

>At Manhattan's National Horse Show, Argentina's sharp equestrian team, led by Dr. Hugo Arrambide, who won the individual championship, trotted off with both top awards. A poor third: the favored U.S. team.
