EVANSTON, ILL.,, Nov. "a. Up
Hap Murphy, a fourth string half
back, blasted a University OF ILL
nois forward wall to bits today and
spanked Northwestern's Wildcats
to a 1877 victory as the two clubs
closed their 1915 Western Confer
ence football seasons.
Ed Parsegian, sub for Dick Con-
ners, scored the first touchdown
for the Wildcats, going over from
the two yard line after Murphy
had spanked a 71-yard drive in the
second period. Jim Farrar convert
ed from placement. Murphy scor-
ed the second counter with five
minutes remaining in the last peri
cd after gaining most of the ground
in a SIS yard touchdown drive.
A break in the game set up the
Illinois touchdown play. The Him
had punted and a clipping penalty
was called on the Wildcat Al yard
line early in the second period. The
ball was in the air at the time o.
the penalty, and was awarded to
Illinois on the Al. On the first play
Pierce broke through an opening
off left guard and sprinted to the
goal.

VIRGINIA KNOCKED
FROM WIN COLUMN

WASHINGTON, Nov. 24.-(RH
Maryland University staged rous-
ing finish today, scoring two touch
downs in the final period to knock
Virginia out of the unbeaten foot
ball ranks, 1913.
Don Gleasner, 6-foot-4 senior end
from Wilmington, Del, pulled in a
45-yard pass in the last minute for
the points that posted Virginia's
first defeat in its last Is games.
Bill Polling, 160-pound 18-year-old
freshman from Athens, Ohio, team
ed with the towering Gleasner on
aerial plays for both of Maryland's
last-quarter scores.
After Virginia had taken a 1876
lead in the third period, Polling
made a leaping throw from the IL
yard line to the long-armed Gleas-
ner in the end zone with five
minutes gone in the closing quarter.
But Polling missed the conversion
that would have tied the score and
Virginia held 1912 margin.
That slim edge looked like the
winning difference until Poline
stood near the midfield marker
hurled the ball with all his might
and Gleasner caught it as he fell
over the boaI.

Alabama's RoseboWl-bound Grim
son Tide rolled to an overwhelming
SIS to 0 victory over the Pensacola
Naval air stations Goslings today
before scant throng of 1000 chill
ed fans.
Coach Frank Thomas allowed his
regulars to roll up 21-0 lead ir
the first period, and used them
sparingly thereafter, but the sec
ond and third teams continued to
outclass the Goslings and scored
twice in the second, once in the
third and twice more in the fourth
period.
The Tides star halfback, Little
Harry Gilmer, handled the ball
only five times, carrying it three
times for 21-yards and passing
successfully once, for 12-yards, in
two attempts. The unsuccessful
toss hit his receiver, who dropped
the ball.
Bama'S running attack rolled up
306-yards and accounted for most
of l8 first downs for the Tide.
Three completed passes in four
attempts were good for 63 more.
The Goslings were helpless #
fensively except for 79-yard

By BARNEY BALLARD

LEXINGTON, KY, Nov. 24.-B-
Tennessee's Volunteers defeated
Kentucky, $40, here today in the
41st annual gridiron game between
the two schools.
A crowd of $4,000 shivering fans
saw the two teams battle on even
terms during the first half, with
each threatening once to score. The
Vols pushed over a touchdown in
the third period and another In
the final quarter for the only tai
lies.
1t was Mark Major Tennessee
fullback, who registered both touch,
downs and it was Casey Stephen

than the score would indicate, al
though there was little doubt as tc
the winner after Tennessee regis
tered it's first touchdown. Each
team collected nine first downs.
A soggy turf, left over from
rains and melting snow earlier ir
the week, tempered the running at
tack of both elevens and the Will

for most of their gains. Tennes'

but dangerous, especially in the
second half when the Vols scored
their touchdowns.
With George Blanda tossing mos

Vols amassed 159 yards on the
ground to only SO for Kentucky
Tennessee opened it's first scoring
drive in the third period, taking
possession on its own 81 after ar
exchange of punts, with Buster
Stephens 47-yard sprint on fake

Except for their brief moment
at the start, when they capitalized
on two lucky breaks to jump in
to a $40 lead and send most of
the crowd of 10000 into spasm
of joy, the Tigers were complete
