SPORTS. . 'Te@pi-ns Bow to Tarheels, 14-0 : Pitt Bowls Over Ohio State, 6- - Ditt Crosses Goal on Each. Meade’s Kicking Stands Out for Maryland. By the Associated Press. HAPEL HILL, N. C., October 10, — Two 26-yard scoring plays with Art Ditt of Leba- non, Pa., doing the tallying both times, gave the University of North Carolina a 14-to-0 victory over Maryland today. The Tarheels outplayed the Old Liners in every department of attack except in return of punts and in boot- ing the ball. In this latter fleld, Big Jim Meade, Maryland halfback, gave a brilliant exhibition of punting to keep Carolina on the defensive most of the first half. Ditt, relief man for regular full- back Jam Hutchins, broke loose for 26 yards through right guard for a touchdown in the third period. Im- mediately before he had contributed a 15-yard jaunt through guard in mid- fleld while a 62-yard Tarheel march was under way. A perfectly executed forward-lat- eral, Crowell Little to Andy Bershak to Ditt, netted the same yardage for the second touchdown. Tom Bur- | nette converted from placement after each touchdown. Maryland Kept on Defensive. AIN held the crowd to 6,500. Only about 2,000 were on hand for the opening kickoff. The rain halted in the first quarter. Carolina’'s tight defense held off the Maryland attack throughout, the Old Liners making only one first down. The Old Liners fought doggedly in the first half, allowing the Tarheels only one real march, but they failed to solve the tricky reverses of the sec- ond half with Ditt, Dick Dashiell, Hutchins and George Watson carry- ing the ball. Maryland was kept on the defensive all of the final half. Carolina got 10 first downs and gained 210 yards by all methods. Maryland netted only 62 yards gained. Bershak's play at end was an out- standing feature of the Tarheels' game while Henry Bartos, 210-pound tackle from Vandergrift, Pa., starred in the line along with John Trimpey, another Pennsylvanian hailing from Somerset, who covered the other tackle berth. Maryland Break Fruitless. IN THE Maryland backfleld, Meade was aided by Coleman Headley, who ran back punts neatly. Mike Surgen* and Charlie Zulick excelled in the Terps’ line play. Maryland got & break near the end of the first period when Meade punted outside on North Carolina’s 3-yard line and Burnette's return kick went back only to the Tarheel 22. On nml down, however, Burnette stood on his 4-yard line and intercepted a heave by Headley. He punted to mid-field to open the second quarter. In that period the Tarheels drove on three successive first downs to their own 43-yard line, where the attack was halted. After an exchange of pints, they advanced to mid-field, but 8ot no farther in the first half. Twice in the last half the Carolini- ans threatened, in addition to the pay-off breakaways of Ditt. Once they | marched from the 43-yard line to the Old Liners’ 15, but in four downs there they could make only 1 yard. Swap Interceptions. ‘JUST before the game ended, an intercepted pass gave Carolina the ball on Maryland's 31-yard mark. But three downs later Meade intercepted & Tarheel toss. In running back kicks the Terrapin backs far outshone the Tarheels, with s total of 139 yards, against 18. Meade'’s punts average 41 yards,| whereas the Carolina Kkickers aver- aged 38. On the ground, however, North Car- | olina left no question of its superiority, gaining 190 yards by rushing, whiie the visitors got only 32. Maryland made 12 yards on laterals. Line.ups and Summary.

IT BEGAN to look to be a scoreless tie until the break in the fourth. Southern Methodist had intercepted one of Fordham's infrequent passes and with Ken Goodson hurling the ball to Billy Dewell had worked down to Fordham's 28. Goodson flung a short one, meant for Powell, but the surprising Mr. Lock stepped in, grabbed the pigskin, sprinted clear of the surprised Mus- tang tacklers and was off for the | touchdown. Southern Methodist lost its only good scoring opportunity in the third when the Fordham line stiffened to cut short a Mustang offensive on the line. i | Marion ) | Kentucky's HE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, D. -G, OCTOBER 11, 1936—PART ONE. —By JIM BERRYMAN SPRANG THE DAYS et atny 2 - KENTUCKY TAKEN FOR BUMPY RIDE Georgia Tech Shows Class of ’28 Rose Bowl Team in 34-0 Triumph.

MISSISSIPPI STATE BOWS TO ALABAMA Kilgrow Dashes 83 Yards for Tally in Second Quarter of 7-0 Battle. By the Associated Press. TUSCAMA, Ala., October 10.— Joe Kilgrow, junior halfback from Montgomery, Als., brought joy to & homecoming crowd of 16,000 and vic- tory to Alabama, 7 to 0, here today in a bitterly fought battle with Mississippi State. Kilgrow dashed 83 yards for the game’s only touchdown midway in the second period. The play, a fake punt, caught the invaders flat-footed and Alabama blockers cleared the patch after deception got the runner far upfield. Aside from this brilliant run, the game featured two stout, hard- lines, with neither team able to punch out first downs consistently. Alpbama had the better of it, however, and a penalty for holding early in the third quarter robbed them of a fine chance for another marker. Line-ups and Summary. Pos. Miss. State (0).

[DRIVES T0 SCORE INFIVAL QUARTER Stebbins Tallies With His 34-Yard Dash—Panthers Outclass Buckeyes. BY ALAN GOULD, Associated Press Sports Editor. OLUMBUS, Ohio, October 10. ~—By the exclusive and con- vincing use of “old-fashioned” foot ball, Pittsburgh’s Pan- thers overpowered Ohio State today, 6 to 0, and took the high road lead- ing toward national championship heights. The climax to & hard-fought battle between two stalwart lines came sud- denly and with dramatic swiftness late in the fourth period as Ohio State’s otherwise resourceful defense finally yielded to the sustained forc- ing tactics of the hard-charging Pan- thers, Harold Stebbins, Williamsport, Pa., backfield substitute, shook loose on a simple off-tackle play. A poor punt into the wind by “Tippy” Dye, Ohio’s | quarterback, had given Pitt posses- | sion of the ball deep in opposing territory. Stebbins cut outside tackle with the aid of good blocking. ran wide to elude several tacklers and completed his 34-yard scoring dash down the side lines untouched. Landon Sees Pitt Win. A NEAR - CAPACITY crowd of 71,714 in Ohio's huge double- | decked horseshoe stadium, including the Republican presidential nominee, Gov. Alf M. Landon, saw Pitts- burgh smash convincingly this year's national championship hopes of the battling Buckeyes. The Panthers, without so much as attempting a single forward or lat- eral pass of any description, domi- nated the play from start to finsh. Sticking to orthodox attacking meth- ods, employing nothing but straight “Warner system” power tactics, Pitt registered 11 first downs to Ohio's § and rolled up a margin in rushing of 251 yards to 77. It was the most conspicuous vic- tory for unadulterated, fundamental methods of offense witnessed in many a moon and noteworthy particularly for the thoroughness with which Pitts- burgh smothered the heralded “razzle dazzle” attack of the Buckeyes. Ohio’s offense, built upon laterals | and trick stuff, simply never had a chance. The Bucks were inside Pitt's | territory only once, and not for long. | JPanthers Far Superior. ITTSBURGH'S margin of superior- ity, in the main departments of | offenze and defense, was more decisive than the score indicated. Twice the Panthers were within 5 | first big chance bogged down when Ohio took the ball on downs, ending a 55-yard Panther march at the start | with Pitt driving hard for a second | touchdown and the ball on Ohio's 4- | yard stripe. | of the second period. The game ended 5 B—7 0 three periods, but there was seldom a stage of the game that did not find Pitt holding the advantage. Despite Ohlo’s sturdy defense, led by Capt. Merle Wendt, and the superiority of the Buckeye booters, Pitt kept the play almost continually in opposing territory. Penalties for excessive roughness were costly several times to the visitors, but the Bucks were un- able to capitalize the few “breaks” that came their way. \ Buckeyes Crushed. BZHWD & line that blocked and tackled with consistently effective results, Pitt turned loose a flock of hard-running backs, led by Bob Larue, Frank Patrick, Marshall Goldberg and the latter’s brilliant understudy, Steb- bins. Not even the reserve defensive power which Ohio mustered to fortify its forward wall could withstand, in- definitey, the power generated by the Pitt blockers and ball carriers. At that, barely six minutes remained through. Larue and Goldberg did the ball lugging for Pitt’s first-half drive that fell 5 yards short of its objective, Four first downs were reeled off late in the first period, but with only 3 yards to go, the attack bogged down against Ohio's stout resistance. Ohio’s lone threat sputtered and died out midway in the third quarter, Tippy Dye, Frank Cumisky and Jim McDonald executed the Bucks' only successful forward lateral, for 8 short gein, then McDonald pounded the line to reach Pitt's 44. Ohio State Drive Checked. ITT blocked Kabealo's attempted quick Kick, took the ball on its own | 32. and thereafter was not threatened. The Panthers got the ball on their own 38-yard line, after Dye's poor kick, preliminary to Stebbins’ scoring dash. Pitt paraded from its own 44 to Ohio’s 4 on a 52-yard drive in the waning minutes of the game. After seeing his puplls whitewashed for the first time since he took charge of the Bucks three years ago, Head Coach Franas Schmidt paid tribute to Pitt as “the most powerful team I have seen.” The setback marked the third jolt to Ohio’s national championship am« bitions over the post-war period. Calie fornia’s Golden Bears trounced the Bucks, 28 to 0, in the Rose Bowl in 1920 after Ohio won the Big Ten title, Last year Notre Dame'’s melodramatic last-period finish upset Ohio. Pitt's victory today, while not to be classed as an upset, was nevertheless a jolt to the Ohioans. It gave the Panthers the edge, with two victories, against one tie and one defeat in four games with the Bucks. Line-ups and Summary. Bittsbursh (6). Ohio State yards of increasing their score.
