Scoreboard

P: For the first time in twelve years. Navy's football team was better than Notre Dame's in virtually every department. The middies smothered the green Irish squad, 33-7. Oklahoma's national champions took a long while to get started in the thin air of Boulder, Colo., finally whipped Colorado, 27-19. Minnesota needed a last-minute field goal to remain undefeated and beat Pitt 9-6. In the Ivy League, Columbia made retiring Coach Lou Little a present of his last home game by upsetting Cornell 25-19.

P: Lingering doubts that America's track and field team was in top form for the Olympics were dispelled in a final practice meet at Los Angeles. Burly Parry O'Brien (240 Ibs., 6 ft. 3 in.) sniffed an ammonia ampule to get a little relief from a head cold, whirled across the ring and tossed the 16-lb. ball 63 ft. 2 in. to better his own unofficial record. The mile relay team went the distance in 3:07.3, to break another world record. High Jumper Charlie Dumas broke his own unofficial world record with a 7 ft. f in. practice jump. Husky Hal Connolly threw his 16-lb. hammer 244 ft. 10 1/2 in. to break the world record.
