GOLDEN COPHERS WALLOP HUSKIES BY 15 TO | SCORE
Minnesota Outplays West erners Whose Fum-
 bles Are Costly

MINNEAPOLIS. Minn., Sept. "A. -Minnesota's Golden Gophers smothered University of Washing tons Huskies at Memorial Stadium here today by a score of 15 to O. The Gophers scored a field goal in the second period and a touch down in each of the third and fourth periods.

 Neither team could score in the opening quarter. With one and one-half minute to play in the second, Faust. Gopher back, booted a field goal from the westerners 22-yard line.
 Midway in the third period after fhe Huskies had carried the ball on a varied attack from deep in their own territory to the shadow of the Gophers goal posts, pass by Jimmy Johnson, Husky hali- back was intercepted on the 5-yard line by a Minnesota linesman who galloped 80 yards behind perfect interference and crossed the Husky goal line standing up. The try for point was missed This ended Wash ington's best scoring bid.
 In the final period Minnesota blocked a punt by McAdam, taking the ball on the Husky 30-yard line and powered it across the line Tor the second touchdown, Buehler car rying the ball over the line. The try for point was blocked.
 Washington missed it's first grand chance to score in the first quarter when it recovered a Minnesota tumble on the latters thirteen yard strip, but immediately fumbled it back to the Golden Gophers.
