STRUGGLE AND PRAYER

College football siss-boomed into October, drawing vast crowds and regaling them with crunching excitement, as shown below and on the following two pages: a time of wonderful strain and struggle—indeed even a time of prayer

Michigan state Halfback Clarence Peaks gets off punt barely ahead of charging Michigan line that harried State kickers all day. Outplayed in the first half, State came back alert and determined, forced game-winning errors. For details see page 66.

COAST TO COAST: POUNDING FEET, DESPERATE LEAPS, FALLING BODIES

Successful lateral from Dave Doane to Gene Roll helped Missouri come close to upsetting Southern Methodist. SMU won 33-27.

Surrounded by two Pittsburgh ends, California's Joe Contestabile is thrown for 10-yard loss. Pitt attack failed in 14-0 defeat.

Successful pass from Chuck Curtis to All-America Jim Swink helped Texas Christian overwhelm hapless Arkansas 41-6.

Upended by Nebraska's Dick McCashland is Iowa State's Chuck Latting. Last minute field goal won for Nebraska 9-7.

Hard-Charging UCLA line almost blocks kick by Oregon's Jack Morris. Similar tactics caused many Oregon fumbles; UCLA recovered four, one of which led to last-quarter touchdown, played usual ground-control game of Coach Red Sanders, beat Oregon 6-0.

Plowing through Purdue line, Minnesota's Rich Borstad makes first down, later scored as Minnesota came from behind to win 21-14.

Twisting through Wisconsin defense, UCS's Jon Arnett gets down to 7-yard line, later scored in 13-6 victory.

Reaching high, Mike Stewart just misses pass in end zone after eluding Columbia Captain Art Wilson, but Princeton routed Lions 39-0.

Riding high after Pennsylvania beat Dartmouth 14-7, for first victory since 1953, is Penn game hero John T. Wright.
