EATTLE, September 26.—Still on S a triumphal rampage, the Uni- versity of Minnesota opened its 1936 foot ball season today with its eighteenth emashing Washington Huskies, 14 to 17, before =« capacity throng of 37,000 in Wash- ington Stadium. consecutive victory, | the touted University of | The big intersectional battle was a toss-up until the final period, when the Minnesota warriors, making their own breaks and taking advantage of them, put over the winning touch- | down on a perfectly executed pass. Just when it looked as if Wash- ington might forge ahead, with the ball in possession of the Huskies on the Minnesota 20-yard line, big Earl Bvendson came from nowhere to in- tercept a long pass and the national shampions were off to the races. They punted, hoped for a break and got it. Byron Haines, Washington's cracker-jack triple-threater, fumbled s punt and Ray Antil recovered for Minnesota on the Washington 30-yard e. Taking to the air for the first time, Clarence Thompson wasted one pass, but the next, Julius Alphonse to Charles Wilkinson, clicked for 20 yards to carry the Gophers to Wash- ington’s 10-yard stripe. Unable to Stop Pass. ‘HE Huskies knew another pass was < coming, but it was screened so well they couldn't do a thing about it. Halfback Andy Uram, who played a8 a substitute, shot the ball over the goal line and Ray King, an end, hauled it down in the clear. ‘Washington never did get the up- per hand, although the Huskies made twice as many first downs as Minne- sota. After the Huskies had marched 65 yards to Minnesota’s 25-yard line be- fore the Gophers got their hands on the ball in the opening period, & fiz- gling lateral halted the drive. Jimmy Cain gave Willlam Matheny » chance to get away for the longest run of the day, a 31-yard dash around right end to the Washington 22-yard 1ine, and the Gophers kept going until ‘Whitman Rork scored at the start of the second period. Alphonse and Matheny took turns eracking the Washington line and they got within three yeards of the goal line before the first period ended. Starting the second Uram bucked for one and Rork plowed through center for the first touchdown. WASHINGTON came back with & \YY vengeance in the third after it got the advantage on another break. Matheny fumbled the kick-off and Writz Waskowitz recovered for the Huskies on the Minnesota 27. Three d@owns made little or nothing and Was- Xowitz whipped a pass to Elmer Logg for a first down on the Gopher 10. The Minnesota gridders dug their eleats into the turf and held Haines and Waskowitz to 4 yards, but they failed to fathom the following pass ‘which Haines heaved to Dick Johnson in the end zone, and the Huskies had matched the Gopher touchdown. Johnson caught the aerial shot go- ing away from the opposition. All three try-for-points were converted, Wilkinson booting the two for Min- nesota, and Logg one for ‘Washington. The Huskies lost their chief line splitter in the first period when Cain was injured on the lateral pass he fumbled and he was carried from the field. Minnesota also lost Rork for a time when he was hurt in the second. The game was played under ideal eonditions. A bright, warm sun was shining and the turf was dry and springy. Continues Long String. E triumph safely protected the t Gophers' undefeated record of three successive years. Minnesota rolled up a record of 25 straight games without defeat, but four ties were mixed with victories in 1933. Since the last tie, the Gophers have won 18 in & row. Coach Bierman said after the bat- tle that he was well satisfled with the work of his gridders, and that he was #tickled pink” over the victory. Coach Jimmy Phelan of Washing- n commented that breaks led to all ree touchdowns. “If it hadn’'t been for these breaks ® the two teams probably would have pushed each other up and down the feld for a deadlock,” he said. a (14).

ACED by Minnesota's unchecked Gophers and Duke's Southern Conference champions, the Nation's college foot ball for- | mally opened the 1936 campaign yes- | terday with an unprecedented array of big-time games and the usual scat- | tering series of surprise finishes. | Minnesota, undefeated through its | last three full seasons and rated by many experts the country’s greatest | team last season, turned back Wash- | ingtrn’s formidable Huskies, Pacific | Coast Conference favorites, 14 to 7. in a sensational battle fought at | Seattle before a capacity crowd of | 37.000. A fumble by Byron Haines, Washington’s great back, gave Minne- sota its chance in the fourth quarter, and the Gophers put over the winning touchdown on a pass from Uram to King. Meanwhile, at Durham, Duke out- played Colgate’s Red Raiders by a wide margin, although Eric Tipton's touch- down plunge at the end of a 66-yard drive in the third period represented the only score of the game. A crowd of 26,000 saw this victory for the South in intersectional warfare. Brown, Lafayette Marks. FROM the standpoint of “form.” the chief upset victims of the opening day were Brown and Lafay- ette in the East and Mississippi in the South, but at least a half dozen other favorites were hard pressed to win. Brown and Lafayette supposedly were on the way up the foot ball lad- der, thanks to good sophomore ma- terial, but the former was trounced by Connecticut State, 27-0, and La- fayette was beaten by Muhlenberg, 19-6. Tulane, operating under a new coach, Lowell (Red) Dawson, upset a favored Mississippi array, 7-6. Much of the day’s excitement was concentrated in the Far West, where Stanford’s Rose Bowl champions, wrecked by graduation of key stars, bowed to Santa Clara, 13-0, and Southern California showed a return to former power in crushing Oregon State, 38-7T. In the South, Clemson, North Caro- lina and Virginia Military checked in with Southern Conference victories. | Clemson topped Virginia Poly's vet- eran team, 20-0; North Carolina just lasted to beat Wake Forest, 14-7, and Virginia Military outpointed South Carolina, 24-7.

OS ANGELES, September 26.— Fred Perry of England, amateur tennis champion of the worid, and Donald Budge, American titlist, won the right today to meet each other for the men's singles championship of the Pacific South- west tenmis tournament. The red-headed Oakland player downed Jack Tidball, Los Angeles, by the lopsided scores of 6—2, 6—1, 6—2, and Perry defeated Frank Shields, Hollywood, 6—3, 6—3, 8—8. Shields, former American Davis Cup player who has turned to a cinema career, made a game fight of it in his comeback attempt, but Perry relent- lessly bombarded his vulnerable back- hand. ~ Rallying in the final set, Shields came from 3—S5 to tie the set.

OLLEGE PARK, Md., Septem- ber 26.—A trio of clever soph- omores, Charlie Weidinger, Jim Meade and Fred Hewitt, | led the University of Maryland to a 20-to-0 victory over St. John's Col- | lege of Annapolis today. | A crowd of about 4000 fans saw the game, first of the season for both teams. ‘Weidinger, subbing for Charlie El- | linger at quarterback, led Maryland's so-called second-stringers into the field in the second quarter and gained the offensive for the first touchdown, | ‘| netted on a pass from him to Bryant. Early in the fourth, after his| heaves to McCarthy and Bryant put | the ball on St. John's 6, the soph | quarter personally accounted for !he“ third tally of the game on a line buck. ‘ Ellinger, back in the line-up dur- | ing the third, together with most of | the frst string, scored after a 45- | yard touchdown drive engineered by | Meade and Coleman Headley in straight line plunges. | Gets 21 First Downs. [ MARYLAND rolled up 21 first downs to three for the John- nies, for a total of 345 yards through the line. St. John's gained 51 yards | by rushing. The Terps, largely due | to Weidinger, picked up 95 yards by aerials to St. John's 13. | Maryland seemed frequently jittery |and suffered numerous off-side pen- | alties. | | The first period was a total loss for | Maryland. Coleman Headley, Who | played a consistently brilliant game, | | did virtually all the leather lugging. Three times the Johnnies held and he was forced to kick, with Lambros returning the punts for good gains. Weidinger's shock troops, with an- other sophomore, Fred Hewitt, jam- ming his way through for penetrating yardage, started their second-penodI scoring march from their own 20- yard mark. | On wide end runs Hewitt advanced the ball to the 39, and Egan went off tackle for 13. A pass, Weidinger to | Bryant, picked up 25 yards, and a series of line bucks put the ball on {the St. John's 18. Weidinger heaved & long one to Bryant, who caught it on the 2-yard mark, and went over for the score. Meade hit his stride later in the same period, ripping off- one gain of 27 yards.

By the Associated Press. PROVID!NC!. R. I, BSeptember 26.—Connecticut State, meeting Brown for the first time in 51 years, ran roughshod over the home team today, winning 27 to 0. Lashing out with an attack that swept Brown off its feet, Connecticut scored twice in the second and fourth periods. Material rated by Tuss McLaughry as the best of the 11 years he has been at Brown was helpless before the drive of the invader.

BY FRANCIS E. STAN. OE McCARTHY and the Yankees gave the Nationals a preview of potential American League pitching in the world series yesterday at Griffith Stadium and it was both impressive and costly. With Lefty Gomez and Bump Hadley divid= ing the New Yorkers' pitching, Wash- ington made only three hits. and in losing & ball game by a 3-1 count, possibly lost anywhere from $500 o $1,000 simoleons per man. The defeat sent the local firm top- pling back into fourth place behind the Chicago White Sox, who overcame a one-game deficit with something to spare by drubbing the Browns in a double-header. Among other incon- veniences the pasting involved was the removal of all mathematical chance of finishing second, the snap- ping of a three-game winning streak for the team, and the breaking of Earl Whitehill's five-game pitching string. Giving all he had in his venerable left wing, Whitehill held the Yanks to four hits and no runs going into the seventh inning. Then, in one of those typical New York uprisings, they shoved across all their runs to win the ball game the Washingtons wanted above all others. Out in Cleveland the Indians had whipp>d the Tigers and by winning yesterday the Griffis could have retained a chance to finish second, but the Yanks' seventh inning queered that. Nats’ Run Luck-tinged. THE Nats made one dying bid in their half of the seventh inning to shove across a luck-tinged run. Ben Chapman, leading off, sent up a pop fly to short right and got a two- bagger when Lazzes, Selkirk and Jack Saltzgaver, who relieved Gehrig, gave it the “how-do-you-do.” Johnny Stone was sent to bat for Jess Hill, but Hadley breezed a third strike by him and Joe Kuhel made it two out when he went down swinging. Fred Sington broke the monotony at this point to double legitimately to left field, scoring Chapman, but Travis grounded out. The six remain- ing men went out in order. Gomez, who started for the Yanks, held the Griffs to one hit in the four innings he worked, but he walked six men and an error by Frank Crosetti helped Washington to another op- portunity. The Nats, however, could cash in on none of these chances, leaving eight runners stranded on the bases in those four frames. Hade ley did the rest of the pitching and, if anything, he was tougher than Gomez, despite the run he permitted. ‘Whitehill, in the meantime, was in trouble frequently but he always man= aged to squirm out of it. He was stingy with hits but, like Gomez, Earl had trouble getting the ball over the plate and he walked seven men. ’ Lazzeri Starts Trouble. IT WAS a walk that started the Yanks off in the seventh. Tony Lazzeri got it to lead off the inning and Hadley laid down a sacrifice. Crosetti then banged a single to left fleld, scoring Tony, and when Red Rolfe grounded to Kuhel and the first baseman threw high to Travis in an attempt to force Crosetti, both runners were safe and the rally was given new impetus. Di Maggio took the cue and singled to left, scoring Crosetti and pushing Rolfe to second base, and Saltzgaver bumped a hit over second to score Rolfe with the final New York run. A double play on Joe Glenn, who had relieved Bill Dickey, ended the inning. Shanty Hogan, the thin man, was the only other National besides Chap- man and Sington to get a hit. Fure thermore, Shanty earned the distinc- tion of being the only gent to hit Gomez, nicking the lean southpaw for a harmless single in the fourth. It was, in all, an expensive peek at possibl® the next world champs for the Washingtons. e NEW CORNELL TEAM OFF WITH A GALLOP Sophomores Lead Way as Eleven Touchdowns Are Registered Against Alfred. By the Associated Press. THACA, N. Y, September 26— Cornell's “New Deal” in foot ball protiuced a flood of 11 touchdowns on Schoellkopf Field today, as Coach Carl Snavely's first big Red eleven, with sophomores setting the pace, defeated Alfred, 74-0. From Dick Baker's first touchdown run of 52 yards on the fifth play of the game Cornell commanded the play. Forty-three Red players saw action as the Ithacan's equaled the total points scored in seven victoryless games a year ago. Sophomores dominated the play, with Baker slashing the Iine and skirt~ ing the tackles; Brud Holland, a Negro, turning the ends short on reverses; Ollie Gildersleeve, second string quarterback, hurling bullet passes to receivers, and George Peck, another substitute and the fastest man on the squad, turning in long returns of punts and smart broken-field running.
