Georgia for four straight periods,
inflicting the worst defeat OF their
tradition stepped so year rivalry.
The most crushing setback pre-
viously was Techs 1870 triumph
in 1905.
Eddie Prokop, one-man machine
hurricane on the loose, scored three
touchdoWns one of them a 66-
yard return of a pass interception.
He booted six extra points.

that although he accepted the Sugar

Georgia led by it's freshman run,

cancelled out that score, and more
besides.

heightened the lead to $40 at the

team humbled the University Of
Virginia today by margin Of 81 to
Z before a crowd of $4,000.
Employing the single wing, the
Tar Heels relied almost entirely on
straight football to score two touch
downs in the first period, touch
down and safety in the second, a
touchdown in the third and then
turned on the pressure to tally four
touchdowns in the final quarter.
Finding early in the game that
their opponents heavier line was
nearly inDregnable, the Cavaliers
went aloft from their T formation
in an effort to reach pay dirt
Though the Virginia passing attack
failed to pay off in touchdown div,
dends, the Cavaliers had the salts
faction of narring the Tar Heels

Virginia completed Is passes out

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 27 --LPl--
The UCLA Bruins tried to out-fable
the University of Southern Californ-

failed to stop the Rose BoWl-bound
Trojans, who came out on the long
end of a 26 to 13 score.
Forty-five thousand spectators
howled as Trojans and Bruins pull
ed one miscue after another - IA
of them altogether - and then went
away convinced that Southern Cali
fornia would be a NCetty fair foot
ball club, IF it could only hold onto
the ball.
Just as an illustration OF how
Weried the game was, note this:
In the fourth quarter the TroJans
registered first down on UCLA's
seven. Two tries at the line took
the oval to within few inches OF
the goal. There, Quarterback Jim
Hardy tried quarterback sneak,
fumbled and recovered. Undaunted,
he tried it again. He fumbled again.
