Fired by the driving tailback's
offensive genius, Minnesota
dominated the game to a start
ling degree not even reflected by
the decisive score. The Gophers
narrowly missed seven other
touchdowns and threw up a
defense which never gave the
Wolverines a chance to move.
The Gophers slammed to their
first touchdown less than three
minutes after the kickoff. Dick
Balzhiser fumbled on the Mich

cred. Giel was over in four plays,
the last from six yards out.
The Gophers travelled 81 yards
10 minutes later and Giel fought
his way over from the two. Giel
fired a pass nine yards to Bob
Rutford for the Gophers' third
touchdown in the third quarter
Balzhiser's tumble in the end
zone gave the Minnesotans' a

Giel outfought, outwitted and
outpowered Michigan tacklers on
virtually every running play. His
unerring passes continually

He carved up both sides of the

The CommodoreS merely

It was particularly satisfying
to Guepe, who was the Virginia
head coach for the seven previ-
Gus seasons.
Virginia partisans can take
some consolation from the fact
that the Cavaliers were very
much in contention until a
tumble late in the third quarter
and a pass interception in the
fourth shattered their hopes for
an upset.
Vanderbilt, which had lost to
Penn, Alabama, Mississippi and

Tom Fool Sets Record

BALTIMORE, Oct. 24.-Tom
Fool, the 1858 handicap cham
pion, made another claim to
greatness today by winning the
18th running of the $50,000

on the list of all-time money
winners.
Atkinson said he tried to make
each quarter of the race in "a
seconds. The famed "Slasher"
said he wasn't waiting for any
challenger and that he had Tom
Fool well in hand all the way
That was obvious. Atkinson
was standing in the irons and
had tight hold on the colt going
to the first turn. He eased the
hold only slightly through the
back-stretch.
After they turned for home,
Ted took a quick look over his
shoulder to guard against any
surprise, showed Tom Fool the
whip once and settled down for
an easy stretch run. Atkinson
didn't appear to turn the horse
loose until they reached the six
teenth pole. At that point. Tom
Fool was flying.
The fractions were 234s, 47A,
1:11A, 1875 and 1858.
