Nebraska Conquers
Champion Sooners
To End Second
Cops Two Long Drives
With Scoring filings
In l3-to-7 Victory
BY the Associated Press.

LINCOLN, Nebr., Nov. 25.-Ne-
braska climaxed two long drives
with touchdown passes, turned back
three of Oklahoma's four scoring
threats and came out with a 13-to-7
victory for second place in the Big
Six Conference football campaign
here today.
1t was a cold, raw day for the
defending champion Sooners, but
the 36,500 spectators had little time
to think of the chilling they got.
Missouri's 20-to-0 victory over Kan
sas gave Missouri the conference
title and dropped Oklahoma to third
place.
Nebraska Drives 79 Yards.
Midway in the first period Okla
homa punted out on the Nebraska
81, from where the Cornhuskers
reeled off five consecutive first downs
in a 79-yard drive for touchdown
four minutes after the beginning OF
the second period.
Herman Rohrig tossed to Roy
Petsch for 10 yards and the score
Petsch f1elded the ball with no one
near him and stepped over the goal
line just inside the flag. Rohrig's
place-kick for the extra point was
wide.
Rohrig and Petsch Repeat.
Five minutes later Nebraska put
over another touchdown on a drive
OF As yards in nine plays. The same
combination accomplished it, but
this time Rohrig's pass to Petsch
was good for three yards. Petsch
took the close pitch so quickly he
was thrown off balance and stumbled
over the final marker. Rohrig made
good on the try for the extra point
and that ended Nebraska's scoring
In the fourth quarter, Oklahoma
got the ball near midfeld. The
Sooners came up with three con-
secutive complete passes and q
touchdown.

EVANSTON, ILL.,, Nov. 25.-Iowa' S
miracle team. the sensation of 1889
football, saw a share of the Western
Conference championship slip away
in the chill and darkness of Dyche
Stadium today as Northwestern S
fighting Wildcats battled the cou-
rageous Hawkeyes to a 7-to-7 tie.
With Ohio State defeated, vic
tory for the Hawkeyes would have
finished their most spectacular
drive in 10 years, giving them a
share of the title with Ohio State.
Northwestern, however, outplayed
the tired and badly battered Hawk
eyes and only the worst kind of
breaks prevented the Northwestern
eleven from winning.
Kinnick Forced Out by Injury.
The gallant pack of Hawkeyes,
however, with victories over South
Dakota, Indiana, Wisconsin, Pur-
due, Notre Dame and Minnesota,
closed their amazing season before
10000 spectators with a glorious
performance, although handicapped
by the loss of their brilliant all
around star, Nile Kinnick, playing
his final collegiate game. Kinnick
went out of action in the third
period for the first time in seven
games. A shoulder injury forced
him to trot sadly to the sidelines,
and he never came back, although
he had played AZ minutes before
the injury.
An examination subsequently re-
vealed Kinnick had suffered a shoul-
der separation. He was tentatively
scheduled to appear in a charity
game at Omaha Thursday, but the
apparent seriousness of the injury
precludes further grid activity this
season.
The Wildcats in the closing Sec
onds of the game opened up with
furious forward passing attack
In an attempt to break the dead
lock, but it failed.
The tie was a bitter one for the
Hawkeyes, for it left them in second
place, with Ohio State holding un-
disputed claim to the championship

McGowen, shining light of Au-

Even before the game was over,
California students were attacking
the goal posts. They tore them

to finish the match.
Usually orderly undergraduates of
both schools battled for pieces of
the goal posts, exchanged punches
with abandon and generally
rounded out nearly half a century
of competition on the gridiron with
the best free-for-all scramble ever
seen here.
The game itself, which gave STAN
ford undisputed possession of last
place in the Pacific Coast Confer
ence, was a one-sided affair with
California holding practically every
advantage.
The Bears rushed over two touch
downs in the second period, scored
two more in the tI~cl and one more
in the last quarter.
Held scoreless three periods, Stan
ford countered with a desperate
passing and running attack in the
last quarter for two touchdowns.

The statistical edge went to the

The Gators scored with their most
brilliant offensive play of the year.
With the ball on the Tech 40, Tom

q lone scoring opportunity today to
nose out Indiana, to 6, in their
annual Old Oaken Bucket football
battle, but it was Indiana that put
on the hair-raising finish which left
the 5000 fans in Mysteries at the

Purdue was leading, 7 to 0, at the

extra point went wide.
Then came the games high ex-

Indiana Misses Field Goal.
After an exchange of kicks Indiana
started at its 33. Six times Hursh
threw passes. Three were completed
and one was ruled good because Of
interference. That put the ball on
the Purdue 10. A 5-yard penalty for
too many times out set Indiana back
to the "a with 40 seconds remaining
and fourth down coming up. Hursh
tried for a field goal from the "a
but the dropkick was wide and In
diana's chances for victory were
blasted.
Purdue's touchdown came in the
third period when the Boilermakers
staged a drive from the opening
kickoff that carried them across
from their &c. Lou Brock took the
ball over on an end sweep and Fred
Montague kicked the point that
eventually meant the ball game.
That was Purdue's only scoring
threat.

Herbert's try for the point after
Tuffy Brooks scored Indiana's S touch

tell on which side the ball hits.

1t also will be explained to lines

that there will be reason to change
their decision.

some are in the habit of calling)
