Penn State Air Game

In Cotton Bowl

DALLAS, Tex. Jan. 2:-Pennl
States Nittany Lions took their time
In providing the evidence, but the
Southern Methodist Mustangs and
Southwest football fans today areI
convinced the undefeated Lions
rugged forward wall and bruising
ground attack are extra. extra good.
The Ynannel In which Penn State
collected well-earned 13-to-13 tie
with the champions Of the South
west In yesterdays 18th annual Cot
ton Bowl game was ample proof.
The big Pennsylvania team looked
easy for the Mustangs the first 28|
minutes, but got back In the ball
game by travelling 65 yards on three
passes In the last 90 seconds Of the
second quarter and then returned
in the second half to all but wreck
the Methodists' undefeated record.
Bob Higgins Eastern aggregation,
after making only two sustained
first-hah drives, was In all but COM
plete control the last two periods
and permitted the Mustangs toI
enter Nittany territory only once.
Walker Sparks s. M. u.
The Mustangs great Doak Walker
had sparked the Dallas team to q,
13-to-0 lead, but the strong come
back by Penn State not only tied
the score, but kept the final out
come in doubt until the final gun
sounded.
Penn States Dennie Hoggard. Just
as the gun exploded, was leaping|
into the air In the s. M. u. end zone
and all but succeeded in gathering
in a 37-yard pass from Elwood
Petchel, who earlier had chucked
two touchdown aerials.
The Lions opened and closed the
first half with long drives, but
otherwise made little progress
against the Mustangs.

Georgia Tech Smashes|

As Still S Passes Click
BY the Associaisd Press

MIAMI, Fla, Jan. IA spectac-
ular passing assault, generated by
lanky Jim Still, and a tumble re-
covery on the l combined to give
Georgia Tech a hard-earned 20-14
victory over Kansas in the 14th
annual Orange, Bowl football classic
yesterday.
A record crowd Of $4,000 shirt
sleeved spectators saw the game.
Six-foot, three-inch Still threw the
three passes which gave Tech its
three touchdowns. a
The first came in the second
period when a 26-yard pass play
from Still to Jim Patton gave the
Yellow Jackets SO lead. Allen
Bowen's conversion was good. The
second Tech touchdown came in the
third period when Still fired a short,
sizzling pass to Billy Queen. Bowen
again converted. The third came
only few minutes after the second
when Still hurled a low, fast pass
into the arms of Patton. BoWen's
kick was wide.
Kansas, making its first Bowl
appearance and figured a 9-point
underdog, never conceded defeat
until the gun ending the game was
sounded. A tumble by Quarterback
Lynne McNutt may have cost the
Kansans a tie or victory.
After recovering Tech tumble in
midfield, Kansas drove to within
yard of scoring, With only seconds
remaining in the game, Techs 183-
pound guard, Rollo Phillips, dived
on bad pass from center to end
the Kansas threat and put Techs
seventh bowl appearance on ice.
AS predicted by both Kansas Head
Coach George Sauer and Techs
Bobby Dodd, it was grueling, hard
fought, wide-open game. Both teams
took to the air 19 times. Tech
clicked for IL competitions and Kan
sas connected with 10. The winners
chalked up 129 yards gained from
their aerial barrage and 100 on the
ground. Kansas gained 127 yards
from rushing and 158 yards in the
air.

n Maryland marched rs yards for its

their hands on the ball only twice
| In the third period but both times
they scored. Nice generalship by
Vic Turyn brought them 70 yards to
the enemy 1-yard line, from where
Gambino plunged for the 6-pointer
that gave the Terps a 1877 edge.
A tumble paved the way for
Maryland's final tally. McHugh re-
covered a tumble by Wayman Sell
lers, Georgia end, on the Bulldogs
40, and Joe Baronis 24-yard pass
to Gambino, straight down the
middle, climaxed the subsequent
drive. i
Georgia threatened twice before
punching over its initial score.
Rauch's> pass to Bill Henderson
caught Maryland's secondary nap
ping and was good for 81 yards be-
fore Vernon Seibert caught him
from behind. The Terps repulsed
this threat on their 13-yard line,
throwing the foe back to the Is
on fourth down. The Bulldogs were
back on Maryland's 1-yard line as
the half ended, after Tucker had
intercepted one pass on the Terp 18
to halt another drive.
The Bulldogs took the opening
kickoff of the second half and went
68 yards to score, Rausch going over
from the l after Umpire Freddy
Sington had called pass interference
on Maryland at that point. Georgia
travelled 58 yards for No. 2, aided by
an unnecessary roughness penalty,
with Geri bulling over from the
,5-yard mark.
A break set-up Georgia,s tying
touchdown when it took the ball on
Maryland's 80 where Earl Roth's
attempted punt was foiled by the
wind. Rauch hit Donaldson in the
corner of the end zone for the
6-pointer after a couple of shorter
aerial gains.

Breaks Are Against Maryland
AS Georgia Ties in Gator Bowl

game remaining, was followed by
Joe Geri's boot to tie the game. Ad-
ditional heaves from Rauch carried
to within the shadow of Maryland's
goal as the game ended.
Georgia Streak Snapped.
Maryland's coach, Jim Tatum,
was greatly disappointed by the
outcome. The Old Liners carried
a 20-7 lead into the final quarter,
but there they sort of petered out,
not rushing the passer as much as
they had earlier in the game and
allowing the Bulldog line to man.
handle them. 1--WE certainly should
have won," was Tatum's comment.
II still think we've a much better
team, although they have the ex-
perience on us, We were just popped
in that last period and I'm mighty
sorry it happened that way"
Georgia's coach, Wally Butts. also
was dissatisfied at the finish. This
is the first bowl game his Bulldogs
didn't win tthey previously had cap
tured Orange, Rose, Gil and Sugar
Bowl tilts) and they were 7-peint
favorites to take this one. Butts
had word Of praise for the Old
Liners. 'They gave us q good battle,
and I thought they had us there
until the final" he said. "Gambino
was as. good as they said he was.
We just didn't have the boys to stop
him. But I certainly would have
liked to have gained that last touch
down"
The game was fairly close in the
statistics column, with what edge
there was going to Georgia. The
Bulldogs got 10 first downs to the
Terrapins' is and outgained them
in total yards, 406 to 374. Georgia
was best through the air and Mary
land best along the ground, which
was just about the way the game
figured in advance.
Terps Full of Fight.
But Maryland seemed to have an
edge in many ways, particularly in
the fight and spirit it displayed in
turning back two serious Georgia
threats in addition to the one at the
end of the game. They made two
marvellous goal-line stands in the
second period that helped the Old
Liners carry a TO lead into the Sec
ond half. The Bulldogs tied it up
right away in the third
period, but the Old Liners bounced
back to push Gambino across twice
in that frame and take seemingly
good lead of 20-7 into the final IS,
minutes. 1t was then the Bulldogs
staged their mighty comeback.
The Terrapins stirred up two
minor drives in the opening period,
getting across the middle stripe, but
not much farther, and 1t was Geor-
gia that made the first serious bid
for a score early in the second pc
Rod. From deep in his own terri
tory, Rauch uncorked an aerial to

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Jan. D.
University OF Maryland's football
team brings back a tie-a disap-
pointing one to the players and
coaches, but acceptable enough to
TeTapin supporters-from its first
trip to a gridiron bowl game. 1t
was a 1920 standoff against Geor-
gia's Bulldogs in yesterdays third
annual Gator Bowl brush here; a
standof earned by Georgia with a
great rally for two touchdowns in
the final period after Maryland
seemingly had the game locked UP,
In fact, there was a touch OF
luck connected with Maryland IS
coming away with a tie, as time
ran out with the Bulldogs going
strong and on Maryland's 8. That
was about all the luck going Mary
lands way in the game, however.
Georgia really had. a lock on the
rabbit foot department with two
penalties leading to two Of its
scores.
The near-capacity crowd Of 10000,
a Gator Bowl record, was treated
to an exciting game all the way,
and also a lot of weather combi-
nations. 1t was cloudy at times
and sunny at others, with the tenn
perature around 10, and there were
a few half-minute rainfalls and
several occasional hard gusts of
wind that did queer things to the
football. Twice these sudden wind
gusts contributed to bad breaks for
Maryland.
Gambino, Rauch Sparkle.
Lu (Twinkletoes) Gambino was
the games individual standout,
scoring all of Maryland's touch
downs-one in the. second period
and two in the third. In between
he gained ground all over the sta
dunn, finishing with total of 165
yards in 20 rushes. That's an
average of rs yards a crack, a hair
better than the figures he ran up
during the regular season.
Old Twinkletoes he's 24) easily
was the best player on the field and
received the unanimous vote as such
from sports writer's covering the
contest. For that he gets a right
handsome trophy. His touchdowns
were his 17th, 18th and 10Th this
season, raising his point total to ia.
Georgia's star quarterback, John
ny Rauch, also did better than
okay, completing IL of 20 pass at
tempts for 187 yards, despite Mary
lands use of a five-man line most
of the time. He would have COM
pleted more except for several but
ter-fingered receivers, but as it was
he was constant source of irrita-
ton. He tossed for one touchdown,
scored another himself and the
threat of his passing kept the Ter
rapins jittery all the way.
