mites. In between, Guglielmi
made the break that set up the
first Irish touchdown.
Dick Miller, No. 2 Texas quar-
terback. attempted a long pass.
after first overthrowing to Char
lie Dollar when he was by him
self in the end zone. Guglielmi
picked the ball out Of the air
and raced Al yards to the Long
horns 80. This was the first
time Notre Dame had the ball
in Texas territory and the Irish
made the most Of it.
The sophomore right halfback.
Jim Morse, dug for a short gain.
Guglielmi missed Shannon in the
end zone with long pass. then
hit the end with a shorter aerial
and Shannon, who had gotten
behind Bill Quinn, raced for the
first touchdown. Don Schaefer
kicked the first Of three extra
points to make it TO.
Despite the score. it was Texas
that continued to dominate the
attack. The invaders went down
to the Irish 20 before this thrust.

was dulled by a 15-yard penalty.
Still, they were pitching for a
score until a long pass by Brewer
was intercepted by Guglielmi on
Notre Danes 2 as the half time
ended.
Brennan's 1954-model Irish
eleven, featuring widely separ-
ated linemen on many plays, be-
gan to get down to business at
the start of the second half. On
the first play after receiving
the kickoff, Guglielmi passed to
Morse for 81 yards. Another
aerial to Joe Heap was good for
81, moving the ball to Texas 10.
Guglielmi kept the ball for
gains of 9 and yards, handed
off to Heap for a 2-yard gain.
and then sneaked across from
yard out to boost the score to
14-0.
Again the Texans roared back,
conf1ning play to Notre Dame
territory. After a beneficial ex-
change of punts, the Longhorns
got the ball on the Irish 80 and
ground down to the 9-yard line,
where Fullback Don Maroney
fumbled and ackle Ray Lemek
recovered for the Irish. Texas
now had missed opportunities
from the 7, Is, 20 and 9-yard
lines, with a lesser chance re-
naming to be kicked away from
the 80 yards out in the final
period. ...
Pressure Tells on Texas.
The evidence was that Texas
was feeling the increasing pres
sure, because the Longhorns
twice mishandled the ball in the
final period, giving the Irish the
bail each time. The first time.
Halfback Chet Simcik fumbled
a punt and Notre Dame recov-
cred. This was the only occasion
upon which the Irish failed to
capitalize on a break.
They got another shot at q
score a few moments later, how
ever, and made good. A clipping
penalty had pushed Notre Dame
back to its one-yard line and it
seemed certain the Irish were
trying only to control the ball
as long as possible on straight
running plays and settle for a
14-0 win.
When they finally had to kick
from their 19, however, Maroney
fumbled Schaefer's kick after
calling for fair catch. and VAR
richione recovered for Notre
Dame on his own A. Now, out
in the open, Guglielmi did It
again.
A 27-yard pass to Morse put
the ball on Texas 26 after a
short ground gain by Dick Fitz-
gerald. Then, with Guglielmi
taking beautifully, Schaefer
picked up % on a delayed trap
to Texas 3-yard line. On the
next play, Guglielmi easily scored
after sliding off to his left and
it was 21-0.
Fourth Win Over Texas.
It swas the 416th victory
against IS losses and "a ties for
Notre Dame since 1887 and the
fourth time in five meeting they
have conquered Texas since 1913.
The only Longhorn victory came
just 20 years ago by a 7-6 score
when another new and young
coach, 30-year-old Elmer Lay
den, made his debut in charge
of Notre Dame.
There was none of Layden's
heartache today for Terry Bren-
nan, thanks chiefly to Guglielmi,
and so a new era was begun. APP
propriately the coach whom
Brennan succeeded, Frank Leahy,
was in the stands with Mrs.
Leahy and the eight Leahy chill
dren.
