Vanderbilt scored a 3 to 0 upset

field goal by Zack Clinard in the

MINNEAPOLIS, Sept. 27-Min-
nesota opened its 1947 football
season with a 7 to 6 decision
over Washington today, with luck
having a large part in a game
played in a rain which prevented
anything in the way of fancy foot-
ball. Fumbles were frequent and
Minnesota's lone tally came when
Bud Grant, Gopher end, grabbed
a loose ball in mid-air and raced
19 yards for the touchdown:

out on defense along with quar-
terback Gene Glick, halfback
Lynn Chandnois and end John
3ilnan.
Chronologically the TD's went
something like this:

their hands on the ball the Wol-

plays with Weisenberger's two
long runs and a two yard pay-dirt
plunge highlighting the drive.

Syracuse Wins Little
World Series Opener
SYRACUSE, Sept. 27-(P)-By
the margin of a run which was
forced in on a base on balls in the
eighth inning, the Syracuse Chiefs
took the opening game of the Lit-
tle World Series from the Mil-
waukee Brewers here tonight, 7 to
6.
Playing in 38 degree tempera-
ture which didn't deter a fine
turnout of 9,222 fans, the Chiefs
had to overcome their own field-
ing lapses as their usual smooth
style of defense deserted them in
the big eighth, when the Brew-
ers counted .five runs to take a
temporary lead.
Dutch Mele, who drew the big
pass with bases loaded that
broke the tie and won the game,
got two of the Chiefs' 12 hits off
an assortment of four Milwaukee
pitchers.

CHICAGO, Sept. 27-(IP)-Ben
Hogan of Hershey, Pa., missed a
difficult $1,000 putt by inches but
fired a seven-under-par 65 which
equalled the course record and
gave him a three-stroke halfway
lead in the $5,000 i;nternational
Golf Tourney today.
The 36-hole, winner-take-all
match among eight title-holders
winds up with 18 holes tomorrow.
Runner-up at the 18-hole mark
was South African Bobby Locke,
who matched Hogan's three-un-
der-standard 33 on the first nine,
but came back over wind-swept
Tam O'Shanter course in 35 for
68.
A stroke behind with 69 was De-
fending Champion Sammy Snead,
who opened with a torrid 32, four
under par, but staggered over the
back nine in one-over par 37.
