blasted Illinois forward wall to
bits today and spanked Northwest
ern to a 1877 victory as the two
closed their 1945 Western Confer
ence seasons.
Murphy, who came in as a sub
stitute for Bill Hunt, played almost
the entire game. He carried the
ball 80 out of 63 rushes and gained
total of 154 yards.
Ed Parsegian, sub for Dick Con-
ners, scored the first touchdown for
the Wildcats, going over from the

sparked 71-yard drive in the
second period. Jim Farrar con-
verted from placement.
Murphy scored the second counter
with five minutes remaining in the
last period after gaining most of
the ground in a 55-yard drive.
A break in the game set up the
Illinois touchdown play. The Illini
had punted and a clipping penalty
was called on the Wildcat 41-yard
line early in the second period. The
ball was in the air at the time of
the penalty and was awarded to
Illinois on the Al. On the first
play Pierce sprinted to the goal.
The Wildcats marked up 81 first
downs to 10 for Illinois, and rolled
up total of 30l yards to 2O4 for

ATLANTA, Ga, Nov. 24-Clem-
sons Tigers spiked Georgia Techs
passing at opportune moments and
unleashed a powerful running at
tack to upset the Jackets today, 21-7.
The attendance was estimated at
10000.
The Tigers got the Jump on Techs
second team with 65-yard scoring
march in the first period and then
repulsed the Jacket regulars the
rest of the way.
Before the half, Clemson drove 10
yards to a second score and after
Tech went 78 yards to tally in the
fourth period, came back rs yards
for clincher touchdown on five
plays.
The quick-kicking and running
OF Marvin Butler was the deciding
factor. Besides setting the Jackets
back on their goal with long rolling
punts time after time, he scored
twice, both times standing UP.

Episcopal 10 Finish
Perfect Season
BY ANN CLINE.

Woodberry Forests high-riding
football team wound up its season
undefeated and added its 18th con-
secutive victory by trouncing Episco-
pal High of Alexandria, 1886, yes
terday on Hoxton Field. The victors
have yielded only three touchdowns
this season while compiling ITO
points.
Dean Davidson, 196-pounder, one
Of the outstanding high school backs
in Virginia, engineered the Wood
berry attack as he raced 60 and 40
yards for two touchdowns and
helped set up Woodberry's other
two with bulldozing drives through
the line and around end.
The Foresters moved into an early
lead. They took over on downs on
their own % and after Jimmy Muir
ply crashed for 7, Davidson went off
tackle on his 60-yard romp. Ted
Tullis booted his first of four ex-
ira points.
Davidson earned his other six
pointer early in the second period
When Episcopal kicked Davidson
slowly retrieved the ball on the
Alexandrians' 40, gained momentum
as he cut across to the right side
line and tore down the border, stiff
arming several tacklers before
breaking into the clear. Tullis con-
verted.
The big fullbacks contribution
to Woodberry's third touchdown was
a 16-yard run-back of kick, soon
after his second touchdown, that put
the ball on Episcopal's "a. He moved
it up IA yards on line smash, and
then on reverse Charley Peterson
rounded left end into pay territory.
Tullis again converted.
Undismayed by Woodberry's 21-0
advantage, Episcopal hit top form
in the fourth quarter, when Rufus
Barkley started clicking with his
passes. After a sustained drive had
advanced the ball to the Foresters'
IS, Barkley completed three passes
that resulted in the Episcopalians'
lone tally. His first heave was to
Bill Daniel, who carried to the Is,
and after line attack gained moth
ing, he fired to John Dilweg, who
reached the g. Another Barkley-
to-Daniel aerial netted the six
points,. The conversion attempt
failed.
Woodberry struck again shortly
after Episcopal completed its scor-
ing. After three plays had failed to
make a first down, Davidson moved
into punt formation, but instead of
kicking rounded right end to the
Episcopal Al for a first down. On
the next play, Substitute Bill Hor-
ton skirted end for the tally. Tullis
kicked the extra point.

Kirk Leads Eli Drive
That Erases Tigers
Early Advantage
By the Associated Press.

PRINCETON, Nov. 24.-Recover-
ing from the shock of two quick
Princeton touchdowns in the first
S minutes Of play, a superior Yale
eleven came back to stage three
long scoring drives of 70, 6s and As
yards and defeat the Tigers, 20 to
IA, in their 68th meeting today.
With Van Kirk, a shifty, hard
running back, shredding the Prince
ton defense, the Ellis paraded for
five straight first downs and 68
yards for the winning counter in the
third quarter, with Kirk plunging
across from the 1-foot line.
Except for their brief moment at
the start, when they capitalized on
two lucky breaks to jump into a
14-0 lead and send most of the
crowd of 10000 into a spasm of joy,
the Tigers were completely out
classed and only for three firm
stands deep in their own territory
in the closing period they would
have succumbed by much higher
score.
S oatNAaoc opPoSttlUhs
The one-sided story was told In
the figures. Yale piled up % first
downs to the Tigers one, gained
283 yards rushing to Princeton's net
OF four yards and completed six
passes for 68 yards. Princeton did
not complete single aerial. There
was never much doubt of the
eventual result once the Ellis got
their running game to rolling late

yards to score early in the second
period.
But still the de-emphasized boys
from Nassau Hall managed to throw
at least a temporary scare into the
favored bulldogs before they sue
cumbed.
The game was barely under way
when Don Williams, rangy Tiger
end, blocked fourth-down Eli
Kick and the ball went to Princeton
on the 2. John Weber smashed it
over and Williams added the point
to send the Tigers out in front, 7
to 0.

to the Blues 3, where the busy
Williams boy fell on it. This time

Yale Drives to Victory.
Bill Penn ploughed across from

72-yard march in which he alter
mated with Kirk in ripping off the
Tiger tackles.

eled As yards. with Art Fitzgerald
passing 26 to Kirk on the goal line

Taking the second-h kick off

1t was the seasons finale for both

outcome from almost the opening

Redskins and Eagles, Eyeing
Juicy PIum> on MettIe Today

of the corner of one eye at the East
West championship duel that prom
ises to be the richest in professional
football history.
Clevelands Municipal Stadium,
with its 10000 seats filled at IS
throw, plus radio rights, would reap
more than quarter million dollars
for the players. 1t could amount to
something like $500 a share for the
champions-a full seasons pay for
some players. Neither the Redskins
nor Rams can be blamed for think
ing about that item.
Thus today's game may produce
the finest brand of team play the
Redskins have shown all season.
No one player will carry the burden
alone. 1t won't De Baugh's passing,
Bagarus' broken field running, the
off-tackle slants of Frank Atkins and
Merlyn Condit, nor the wing g-skirting
of Bill De Correvont. Nor will the
oftense as a whole decide the issue.
The line will have an important
role today. If Joe Aguirre, Doug
Turley and the other ends can bottle
up Steve Van Buren, If Fred Davis
and Johnny Adams can discourage
Roy Zimmerman's passing, and if
Al Lolotai. Zip Hanna, ct al, can
punch holes in the Eagle line to
get the Redskin backs through, the
Tribe can win. If any one of them
fails 1t could be disastrous to the
teams hopes.
Eagles Desperate, Dangerous.
Philadelphia is ready and the
Eagles will be desperate and danger
GUS. Last year they were rated the
outstanding team in either division
Of the circuit, but the Chicago Bears
knocked them out of the title pic
ture late in the season. This year
again was supposed to be Greasy
Neale's year, and again the Eagles
see their championship hopes van
ishing. Defeat today would be the
coup de grace and nothing will be
left undone in an all-out bid for VIC
tory. The Eagles have everything
at stake. everything to gain and
everything to lose. and It will take
"a good, fast. tough and aggressive
team to beat them.
The Redskins seem to be that
team.

Against Ithacans

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 24.-Penn
took 1t out on Cornell today. Mauled
by Army, 81 to 0. a week ago, the
Quakers bounced back to run up a
record 59-to-6 score, ON the Big
Red in the SD renewal of their
traditional football series.
A crowd of $1,000 that sat in
wind-swept Franklin Field during
35-degree temperature, saw the
Quakers quickly sweep to a 200
lead the first three times they got
the ball and 60 on from there for
the worst rout Of the series, started
in 1893.
The victory also gave Penn,
beaten only by Army and Navy,
the Ivy League championship and
a season record of six victories
against two defeats.
Piling up 239 yards by rushing
and 80 yards through the air, Penn's
attack made thousands wonder how
in the world Army managed to score
such a convincing triumph. Penn's
big line held Cornell to a minus two
yards in rushing and it was only
through the air that the Big Red
threatened at all. 1t gained l56
yards in this respect.
Penn Scores at Start.
Bob Evans started PENIS touch
down parade in the first minute
by returning punt to the Cornell
"A. He slashed off tackle to the 36,
then passed to Frank jenkins on
the 10. On second down, Don
Schneider, a thorn in Cornells side
all afternoon, raced over on a re-
verse.
Two more touchdowns followed in
rapid succession as Penn capitalized
on two Cornell misplays. Bob Spo-
naugle recovered a missed pass from
center on the Cornell 8, and Evans
tipped a fourth-down pass over
the line to Carmen Falcone for the
score. On the first play after the
succeeding kickoff, Hillary Chollett
fumbled, and Joe Dickerson fell on
the ball for Penn in the Cornell end
zone.
Two long passes from Allan Dek-
debrun to Jim Cotter and Chollett
set up Cornell's lone touchdown
early in the second period after Penn
had lost the ball on the Big Red
goal line on Schneiders tumble. A
penalty put it on the Penn l, and
on fourth down Clint Laux plunged
over.
Quakers Go to Town.
After that Penn added three more
touchdowns for 1916 half time
lead. Falcone, Bobby Deuber and
Charley WEIGH went over on a quar-
terback sneak, a 7-yard reverse and
6-yard pass. In the closing min
utes an intercepted pass and a re-
covered Cornell tumble set up Penn's
last three touchdowns. George Opel,
