Falls, 25-0, In Big Ten STATISTICS Much the same type of game was Wildcats coming back twice and half. But the Webfoots had too much in the second half. THAT NATIONAL LEAGUE situation sort of sneaked np on the nation this past week. For months Brooklyn had been considered a shoo-in, and even after the Giants began making threatening gestures and whittling steadily on the big margin, most observers wrote them off as having started too late and wouldn't it have been a wonderful race if the New Yorkers had gotten off to a better start? The American League had the race.

But the Razorbacks got the scare o. the season when they found themselves trailing by 13-6 count at the end of the first half.

The Sun Devils from Arizona played a beautiful game in the first half but simply were over powered in the second, THE RAZORBACK defense was unpenetrable in the second half. ASC was limited to three yards net rushing and 13 yards net passing while Arkansas backs ran and passed for 21 points and picked up three more on a 29-yard field Razorback captain Pat Summerall goal by All-America end and In the first half statistics were almost even with the home team having a slight advantage in their ground game but fumbles cost them the ball and the Sun Devils capitalized on every break. Although the Devils fumbled seven times in the game, they did not lose possession. Coach Larry Siemering ex pressed satisfaction with the show ing of his underrated Sun Devils. ARIZONA STATE shocked some 14,000 Arkansas fans by breaking into the scoring column 'early in the first period after Arkansas fumbled twice with both fumbles being recovered by the Devils.

A Harold Self to John Allen pass was good for eight yards and the first TD with six minutes gone. Tom Sanson neatly booted the ex tra point. The Razorbacks came roaring back in the opening minutes of the second quarter and a "Lamar Mc-Han to Summerall pass was good for their first marker. The conversion failed. ASC played Arkansas on even terms the remainder of the quarter and drove well on the ground to the Razorback 11 where Harley Cooper knifed over tackle for a 13-16 lead.

THE FIRST half ended with a McHan to Bill Jurney pass com plete on the Sun Devils' two-yard line but a sharp tackle by Gene Mitcham ended play right there. In the third period the Razor- backs kicked off to the Sun Devils who eouldn't go. They punted and with only 3-30 gone Mecham threw to Jurney for 15 yards and a TD to climax a scoring drive in five plays. George Thomason converted for the tie. Summerall's field goal put the Hogs in front 16-13 and they really turned on the steam.

It was McHan who got in Arizona State's helmets the most. He's a shifty runner and a smooth passer. SAM DUCA, Keith GunviUe, Mitcham, Bob Lutcke, Earl Put-man, and Alford shared tackling duties with Duca and Gunville knifing through to nail backs for possibly not until a three-game playoff after that. THE SUGGESTION FROM CHANDLER that the NSC men's Softball champions play the women's champions for the true world crown met with disdain from Spott Willis, catcher for the Flke's Plumbers who went to the men's finals here. "In years gone by," he writes, "the same thing has come up about women against men in softbalL THE LAST GAME LOCALLY, TO MY knowledge, (matched) Clark Smith's Autos against the world champion Jax Brewers, 1948.

Kenny Law really cut his first pitch loose and Freda Savona refused to continue the game unless Kenny eased up. We won the game easily, with our whole team playing around. "If there is any question as to who would win, we would be glad to get a team together and play any of the local girls teams for charity for any organization. "I will admit," says Willis In conclusion, "that our girls play the best girls ball in the But he can't resist a PS. "But they are still girls he adds.

Tucson Edges Thunderbirds In 7-6 Clash TUCSON, Sept. 29 (AP) Tucson built a recovered fumble into a fourth quarter touchdown and a 7-6 victory over West Phoenix In a Class A grid clash before 5,000 fans Friday night.

Sam Kavathas's conversion after Joe Favara had smashed over the goal line from two feet out gave the Badgers their margin of victory. The Thunderbirds had nursed a 6-0 lead from the opening minutes of play and appeared to have the Badgers well tamed until disastrous fumbles in the final frame. The Thunderbirds had taken the initial kickoff on their own 12-yard stripe. Wayne Haley, the game's outstanding offensive player, whished around right end, broke into the clear, outran his pursuers, and went 78-yards for a touchdown after two minutes and 25 seconds. Bill Howell's attempted conversion missed.

Morenci Offense Tips Miami, 33-27 MIAMI, Sept. 29 (Special) Morenci won a purely offensive football game from Miami here Friday night, 33-27. For the Vandals Joe Gomez, Bill Bailey, and Damon Shelburn turned in a good game. Billy Mais, and showing something new John Olszewski as a touch down tosser, struck through the air for four of their five touchdowns and ground out the other in a 44 yard march which required only seven plays. Big Don Robison scored two of the three touchdowns for the Golden Bears, one on a seven-yard drive and one on a 30-yard pitch from Olszewski.

Mais threw the first touchdown, a 59-yard beauty to Bob Beal, and reservists Ray Wlllsey and Dick Lee threw the others to Johnny Pappa and Hal Ellis, respectively.

Both teams scored three touch downs in the first half. Then Arizona sagged, while Oreeon sailed along at the touchdown pace.

Twice the winners came from behind. They trailed 7-6 at the end of the first quarter, and 21-20 at the half. Mixing passes and ground plays, they went ahead to stay in the third period, and add ed two insurance touchdowns in the final quarter. IT MIGHT have been a runa way victory for Oregon, but for a tendency to lose the ball at im portant moments. Five times they fumbled the ball away, and Ari zona converted one into a touch down.

Another Arizona score fol lowed a pass interception. Alert play by two Oreeon freshmen swung the play to Ore Yearling end Dick Davenport hauled in two touchdown passes, one of them in the fourth quarter. That was a 20-yard toss from halfback Tom Edwards, and Daven-" port legged it 37 more yards to the score. He also caught three other passes and wound, up gaining 147 yards for his team. Another freshman, quarterback George Shaw who played on defense, saved Oregon three times with pass interceptions deep in Oregon territory.

All followed Oregoii fumbles, and came' when Arizona was driving for a score. One interception was on the 13, the other two inside the 10-yard line. OREGOX TOOK the initial lead on a 69-yard march, only to see Arizona forge ahead on a 59-yard drive, climaxed by a 11-yard pass from quarterback Eddie Miller to end Leo Brandt. Guard Jim Do-narski kicked the first of his three conversions. Oregon tallied next on a short ground march, and quickly fol lowed with a 42-yard aerial thrust from quarterback Hal Dunham to end LeRoy Campbell for a touchdown.

With only two minutes left in the first half, Arizona broke out with two touchdowns. One came after an intercepted pass in Oregon territory. Halfback Ken Car- della swept end for the final two yards. The other followed recovery of an Oregon fumble on the! Oregon 13. Quarterback Bruce McCauley passed to end Dick Christiansen on the one, then Cardella bucked it over.

Sept. 29 (AP) Michigan State's hard-run ning Spartans brightened their national grid rtputation here Saturday with a lopsided 25 to 0 Victory over Michigan's Western Conference champions. THE SPARTANS showed the sellout throne of 97.239 fans largest football crowd in the nation a vastly improved outfit over the one that made a shaky 6 to 0 debut over Oregon State last week, and handed Michigan its worst beating since Navy won a 33 to 7 victory in 1945. Rated No. 2 in the Associated Press pre-season poll, the Spartans broke over the Michigan goal line in the second period on Quarterback Al Dorow's sneak.

Then the efficient Michigan State machine added two in the. third period and one in the fourth over a Michigan team that could not cope with the lightning thrusts or organize any sustained drive of its own. The Spartans rolled 79 yards for their first score. Jim Ellis, a speedy sophomore safety man, took the third period kickoff 78 yards to set up the second Michigan State touchdown. Don McAulif fe smashed over four plays later.

The Spartans rolled 92 yards for the next counter, with Leroy Bol a freshman flash from Flint, racing three yards for the counter. THE FINAL touchdown came on a three-yard plunge by Vince Pisano, veteran right half, to cap a 46-yard drive. Bob Carey converted only after the second touchdown. With Pisano, Fullback Wayne Benson, McAuliffe and Dorow Zipping through and around the Michigan defense, the Spartans completely dominated a Michigan team that had only one real scoring chance. Knights Take Advantage Of Listless Foe St.

Mary's High opened its 1951 football season Friday night with a shocking 12-2 City League decision over a listless pack of Phoe nix Union Coyotes before 6,000 fans at Montgomery Stadium. Flaunting, a diversified offense in the first half and a stubborn defense in the second, the Knights took advantage of the breaks and showed a strong desire to knock off the club that had been touted as this year's state Class A power. THE COYOTES, apparently un certain as to how to go about stopping Coach Chink Coleman's spread offensive, found little suc cess trying to halt the running of the Knights' George Resendez, Gene Orabuena, and Ruben Madril and the passing of Madril and Jim Easter. The Coyotes appeared to have little appetite for what usually is a rock-em, sock-em intra-city tussle and resorted to ineffectual neck-tie tackling throughout the first half. They failed to threaten the" Knight goal line in the first half, but passed up two beautiful opportunities in the second half, getting to the four in one drive and to the five" in another.

RESENDEZ SCORED both TDs for the winners, each on one-yard bucks. The Knights took charge from the outset, Orabuena intercepting a pass on the Coyotes' first play after the opening kickoff. Easter, engineering the Green Grenadiers beautifully from his quarterback post, guided the Knights straight to a touchdown, Madril accounting for most of the yardage, either on hard-driving runs or accurate bul let passes. The drive carried 56 yards. Madril's first attempt at point-after was good, but a second try was forced by a penalty was missed to the right of the goal posts.

Only 3 rlO remained the first half when the Knights took ad vantage of a Phoenix Union mis- play to score again. Snowflake Wallops Round Valley, 44-14 SNOWFLAKE, Sept 29 Snow- flake outs co red, Round Valley easily, 44 to 14, here Friday night in a game featured by long runs, Carver Rips Mingus, 35-7 Carver High overpowered the Mingus High School Rams from Jerome and Clarkdale, 35-7, here Friday night, but the score should have been bigger. Clipping penalties and fumbles handicapped the Monarchs in the first quarter which went scoreless. Carver came to life in the second quarter to score three times and take a 20-0 lead at the half. A PASSING combination, Lafayette Winrow to Charles Christopher, accounted for two of the TDs.

One of the passes was good for 20 yards and Christopher outran the Rams secondary for 36 more and the goal line. The Rams played listless ball as a whole and didn't penetrate the Monarch's defense until the fourth period when they scored on a Tony Martinez to Jerome Deaz pass against Carver's second string. Winrow played a fine ground game and scored twice. The other Carver tally was made by BurrLs Brooks on a two-yard plunge. Conversions by Carver came by plung-; ing, passing, and a kick from placement THE MONARCHS caught Deaz behind his goal line for a safety in the third quarter.

Standouts for the Rams on defense were Albert Rodriquez and Julian Borjan. For the Monarchy Will Martin, and Douglass Engram played a good game. Nogales Beats -Douglas, 27-14 NOGALES, Arlz Sept. 29 (AP) The Nogales Apaches took advantage of Douglas fumbles Friday night to score a 27-14 Class high school football victory here. Right halfback Butch Bachelier figured in three of the four Apache touchdowns.

An alert Mustang eleven turned back Mesa Friday night, 20 to 14, before 5,000 fans at the North Phoenix High Stadium. It was a terrific early season contest in which both teams flashed brilliantly, with North capitalizing on the breaks and playing a smarter hi and of defensive football. Mesa's newest Jackrabbits, attempting to carry on the unbeaten skein of the 1950 state champions, fought back from a 20-7 deficit in the third period and moved within nine yards of a tie halfway through the final period. However Coach Cecil Coleman's Hosses rose to the occasion and took over on their own 23 yard line to avert the last desperate threat of the defending titleholders. COLEMAN, SERVING as head coach for the first year, led his rebuilt charges to one of the North's Yuma Thumps Calif ornians YUMA, Sept.

29 (Special) The Yuma Criminals, with Bob Araza starring, ran over Notre Dame of Los Angeles, 33-21, here Friday night. Notre Dame got two of its touchdowns against" the second string Criminals. Araza set up the first score on 55 and 14' yard runs, then went oVer from the four. He ran a punt back 57 yards for second tally. Araza also passed to Charley De-Lintt for a touchdown.

The Criminals outplayed their big city foe all the way. The Penn one thrust was in the second period but for the remainder of the game it was a march by the westerners, who led 21-0 at the half. The final two touchdowns in the last period came with the second squad on the field. The winners began the victory parade in the first' period with a gorgeous picture pass from Mais to BeaL The ball traveled 34 yards in. the air and Beal raced all alone fop the final 25.

Two more touchdowns blossomed in the second period, one from an interception in the final half minute of play. The second score came when California marched for 44 yards with Mais giving a handoff to Robtson for the final sevens the lone setback on the log of the Mustang's great 1950 machine. It was truly a team victory, although Gene Prock was a sensational play er on defense, and Don Lusk and Bob Vance were the main cogs in the offensive performance, It was Lusk's beautiful 65-yard punt return that led to the second North touchdown, sending the home team ahead to stay at 13-7. Lusk, fleet veteran back, took the Mesa punt on his own 23, started up the left side, reversed his field and came down the middle, skirting to the right sidelines as he crossed the midfield stripe. He was finally hauled to earth by Jim Magnus- son on the Mesa 12.

From here Charley Ralston, a workhorse for North drove to the six, Vance made a first at the three and then crossed the final stripe for the first of his two touchdowns. Vance added the extra point on this one and in all made 14 points. MESA SHOWED a versatile attack that featured a terrific sophomore bajl carrier in Sterling Bonner, long-legged youngster who was hard to bring down all night. It was Bonner's running that produced the first touchdown after George Simmons recovered Lusk's fumble on the NP Lusk had romped 12 yards on the" first running play of the game, but was hit hard by big Ted Rhoton. Bonner had two runs of six yards each, another of 10 and finally scampered over from nine yards out behind huge hole opened by big A.

D. Stewart. Melvin Nichols made it 7-0 with his placement. Bonner returned the favor to North later in the opening period when he fumbled Lusk's kick on his own 32. Vaughn Patterson, who called an excellent game as quarterback recovered this fumble for North and tlien drove the Hosses to a touchdown.

Lusk bit off chunks of five and four and Patterson sneaked for a first at the 22 Ralston and Lusk got two apiece and Laverne Prock tossed a perfect pass to Patterson on the one-foot line. On the next play Patterson went over. Vance missed the conversion and Mesa still led 7-6. Explosions, Benson Take Grid Spotlight BENSON Sept. 29 Patagonia rapped Benson, 49 to 30, in a six-man game marred by two damaging explosions of floodlights here Friday night.

Then, when Penn passed from deep in their own territory, Sammy Williams intercepted on the 30. On the first play, with 26 seconds left, Olszewski passed perfectly to Robison who made the catch at the goal. The rout was completed in the final period with the California secondary in action. Pete Mering set up the score with an interception and return of 32 yards to Penn's 24. The west coasters marched to the one and on fourth down, Willsey passed to Pappa.

Plumbers Here Tonight Hornsby To See Veeck Today, Others Later CHICAGO, Sept. 29 (AP) Rogers Hornsby, who will confer Sunday with Owner Bill Veeck of the St. Louis Browns presumably about managing the American League tail-enders said Saturday he also has appointments with "two other mejor league club owners." He declined to name them, and told newsmen "there is nothing definite to report at this time." In St.

Louis Veeck announced "there was a possibility" that he and Hornsby will discuss the managership of the Browns, now held by Zack Taylor. Hornsby, once one of the greatest righthand hitters of the game, managed the Browns from 1933 to 1937. The Rajah, who has managed pennant winners at Beaumont in the Texas' League and Seattle in the Pacific Coast League in the past two seasons, said he would fly to St. Louis to fill an appointment made with Veeck some time ago. 61,000 See GaMornia Wallop Penn, 35-0 Sunday night starting at 8:15 o'clock at Phoenix Softball Park, the hammer and tongs struggle between the rival clubs will con- tinue with Saturday night's winne in position to salt away, with one more scalp, the Phoenix Women's Major League championship for 1951.
