Jayhawkers Lose,13-0 In Defensive Struggle
A strong UCLA defense and two costly Kansas fumbles enabled the UCLA Bruins to gain a 13-0 victory over the Jayhawkers in Los Angeles' Memorial Coliseum Saturday.
Actually, it was the two fumbles deep in Jayhawker territory which set up the UCLA touchdowns. After the two teams played to a scoreless draw in the first half, fullback Homer Floyd dumbbled midway in the third quarter and Dick Wallen, Bruin end, recovered on the KU 13.
Even then the Jayhawkers stopped UCLA for six plays before the Bruins finally scored. Kirk Wilson, sensational Bruin sophomore punter, went across from the one to score. Fullback Don Duncan, another sophomore, converted to make it 7-0.
The other costly fumble came in the fourth quarter. John Francisco bobbled the ball on his 24 and Bruins Dave Peterson and Don Shinnick both pounced on it. Wilson skirted 12 yards around end for the tally.
No Ball Control
Floyd was the big gun in the KU ground attack, making 60 yards in 14 carries. Kansas compiled 135 yards on the ground to UCLA's 138. The Jayhawkers completed only one pass in nine attempts for a total of 45 yards, while the Bruins snagged three out of 16 aerials for 29 yards.
These two fumbles, plus four pass interceptions, kept the Jayhawkers scoring attack stymied. The Kansas club outgained the Pacific Coast team 180-167.
The game produced one of the greatest punting exhibitions ever seen on the West coast. Wilson, a 207-pounder, boomed three kicks for an average of 62.7 yards. His longest was 71 yards. The ball sailed from the UCLA five and rolled dead on the KU 24. Actually, he was five yards in his end zone when he kicked the ball. His other two punts measured 59 and 58 yards.
Jayhawkers Try Late
The biggest KU scoring threat came in the fourth quarter. The Jayhawkers started a drive on their own 18. With Francisco, Floyd, and halfback Charlie McCue carrying the load, the Jayhawkers moved to the UCLA 17. On a fourth and one situation Esker Harris nailed Floyd for no gain and the Bruins took over.
During the drive the KU line opened wide gaps in the UCLA line enabling the backs to run for nice gains.
Except for the two fumbles that resulted in UCLA's touchdowns, the Bruins had trouble gaining the stout Kansas defense. The closest UCLA came on another threat was the KU 30, just a few minutes before the final gun. Even that was made possible by the UCLA defense. End Pat Pinkston picked off a Wally Strauch pass and returned to the Jayhawkers 35. Kansas held and took over on its own 30.
For Kansas, defensive stalwarts included little Don Pfuztenreuter,

Pete Goes Home For NU-OU Tilt
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — (UP) — Pete Elliott, who apparently has done a tremendous job in his first year as Nebraska coach, celebrates a homecoming of sorts when his Huskers play at Oklahoma this weekend.
Nebraska wasn't exactly a down-and-out club when Bill Glassford resigned last fall, but few expected—or even hoped—that the Huskers would be in third place in the Big Seven at this stage of the campaign.
Yet, Elliott's crew did it by whipping two of the stronger clubs, Missouri 15-14 and Kansas 26-20, and adding a win over Iowa State. 9-7.
While Elliott has little chance of upsetting his old boss, Bud Wilkinson, he could still entertain hopes of ending the season in third place. Only Missouri, which dropped out of third last weekend, has a chance of regaining the spot in a final game with Kansas Dec. 1. Kansas, at best, could gain a tie for third.
Coffeyville In Race For 'Little Rose Bowl'
LOS ANGELES — (UP) — National Junior College "Little Rose Bowl" Assn, spokesmen today said choice for the Western representative to the Dec. 15 game was still in doubt following Coffeyville, Kan., Juco's 19-19 tie last week with Northeastern Oklahoma.
Nebraska, at worst, could end up with a .500 conference season. Missouri could rise to the .583 mark with a win over Kansas, and otherwise would drop out.
Colorado, which backed into the Orange Bowl when Oklahoma beat Missouri, 67-14 Saturday, ends its regular season in a game at Arizona. Iowa State is at Villanova while Kansas State takes on Michigan State. Kansas and Missouri both take the week to prepare for their game at Columbia Dec. 1.
However, the "Jones Boys" from Jones Junior College, Ellisville, Miss., appeared the heavy favorites for the eastern bid to the post season classic at Pasadena, Calif.
The games this weekend all but close out the football season. Besides the Kansas-Missouri clash, Oklahoma is at Oklahoma A&M on Dec 1, the date most basketball teams swing into action.
