DALLAS, Nov. o.-Irrepressible
John Alec Kimbrough and the ma
rauding Texas Aggies blew through
the mud, the rain and Southern
Methodist today to nail down their
18th successive football triumph,
1877.
Just as advertised, the Methodists,
unbeaten themselves until this
afternoons spectacular scrap. didn't
give in until the final 4 minutes
when the Cadets wrapped up their
ball game with a sorely-needed third
touchdown.
Old No. 80, the runaway AL
America fullback, and a spindly
legged kid named Bill Conatser beat
back the Methodists. First it was
Kimbrough, then it was Conatser
as the Aggies inched on towards
football Immortality before 27,5O0
fans.
Kimbrough Gains 1903 Yards.
Twenty-Five times this giant from
the West Texas cattle country bur-
rowed through the Methodist line,
gaining 103 yards and personally
accounting for the Aggies' second
of 80 yards on eight consecutive
carries.
Conatser's incredible kicking of
a dripping ball, his punt returns
and burst through the Methodist
line for the first Cadet touchdown
filled in when Kimbrough wasn't
on center stage.
Power was the weapon the Aggies
used. Only five times did they pass,
and only two of them we're complete
for % yards. 1t was the I'll yards
by ground that hurt.
Seven muddied Giants, the cast
iron Aggie line that rates as the
Nations best, charged Methodist
backs for go minutes and caused
them to end the day minus % yards
by rushing
Ray Mallouf was the Methodist
menace, throwing 80 passes that
netted 166 yards. 1t was the air or
nothing for the Methodists.
Out in front, 1877, but threatened
continuously. the Aggies settled
everything on two breathless breaks
in the last four minutes.
Aggies Score on Break.

tigia'S plunge from the 2
yard line for the first score of
the Georgetown Maryland
game was only the beginning
of a busy afternoon for the
Hilltoppers who crossed the
Terps' goal line six times be-
fore the final whistle. The
Hoyas' 4l-0 victory was their
third straight over Maryland
and gave them the edge in the
seven games played in the
modern series. 1t also forged
another link in their unbroken
chain of % games without
defeat extending over a g.
year period.

amateurs, today headed COLTS list OF
money winners as O result OF cap
turing the Los Angeles open cham
pionship.
OF course It was the first tourna-
ment Of 1910, and the former U. s.

try club links yesterday, brought
him home with O 72-hole total Of
282 TO capture the top $4,000 prize
OF the $4,000 purse. This Is almost
as much as Little has won In any
year since he Joined the play for

with $2l06. He didn't even reach
the $4,000 level last year.

leading the tournament for two

Almost unnoticed from the start
and beginning the final round trail
ing by Ave strokes, Little played al
most alone while the crowd followed
Heather and the other leaders. But
when he reached the turn after
touring the flrst nine three under
the tough SO par, his gallery began
to pick up. He was still trailing
Heather by q stroke yhen he started
the final nine, but he picked 1t up
on tho 10th when his wood shot was

his fourth birdie. Meanwhile, Heaf-
ner was sticking right to par and
