 Marquette elected to receive, drove out to the Purple's 45 before Harrison and Aldrich dumped Buivid for a 10-yard loss and forced a punt by Cuff that was killed on the Christians' 14. The lone Avalanche touchdown followed quickly when Baugh kicked on first down to Art Guepe, one of the most elusive runners seen here in months and probably the best back Marquette had on the field. Art took the ball in on his own 40, swung to the left, got some blocking help at the start and then was on his own with plenty of yardage and obstacles yet in his path. Speeding down the sideline he whirled and side-stepped his way into the clear and outlegged the Purple secondary to complete a 60-yard return for a touchdown that erased the early Christian lead. Cuff's place-kick try for the seventh point was wide and it again was the Texans' inning to bat.
+Here's how quickly they made a home run. Montgomery returned the kickoff 20 yards to his 22. Roberts, McCall and Montgomery carried for 4, 4 and 5 yards to make it first down for T.C.U. on its 35. Roberts lacked less than a yard of first down on a quick opener through the middle, then made the distance for first down on the 45 after Meyer had dropped a dazzling, whirling pass from Baugh. Marquette here went into a 5-1-2-2-1 defense as a guard against the vaunted Frog aerial attack, managed to stop Roberts on a ground play for no gain and then — Sam went to slinging again. Little Dutch Meyer, who scored all the Christians' points, raced down the field, got behind Art Guepe and made a magnificent, leaping catch of a beautifully timed 31-yard throw from Baugh and raced the remaining 24 yards for what proved the winning touchdown. He also place-kicked the extra point and the score was 10 to 6.
+The last touchdown came late in the second quarter, when the Frogs put on a 62-yard drive from their own 38-yard line, where they went into action after a 22-yard return by Baugh of one of Cuff's punts. Two quick openers through the middle, which the Marquetters seemed utterly unable to solve, saw Roberts pound out a first down on the Purple 49. A reverse by McCall got 5 and a right end sweep by Montgomery made first down on the Marquette 40. Roberts waded through the middle again for 10, and after McCall picked up 6 more on a reverse inside left end. Donkey splashed center for first down on the visitors' 18. The Goldshirts were staying with their five-man line defense despite the steady progress of the Lone Star Staters. Here the Frogs pulled a clever bit of strategy that crossed up the Northerners when Montgomery went back to pass instead of Baugh and whirled a long one over the goal line to Little Dutch, who plucked the leather between two defenders, juggled and finally tucked it to his bosom. This time Reif broke through and blocked Meyer's extra point kick to leave the final score 16-6.
+For the rest of the half the Wisconsin lads were trying desperately to close the gap with an aerial offense of their own but it was hopeless. The vastly superior Purple line charged through repeatedly to rush Buivid off his feet. He had no time to get set or hunt receivers but could only peg wildly and try for long yardage, a mistake S.M.U. made a year ago in the Rose Bowl.
+Throughout the third period the Christians maintained the upper hand, keeping Marquette at a distance except for one rally featuring a pass from Buivid to Cuff when the invaders drove into T.C.U. territory. This offensive wilted when Aldrich intercepted a throw while standing on his goal line and fought his way out 34 yards. A speedy back doubtless could have turned it into a length-of-the-field touchdown run.

-Here's how quickly they made a home run. Montgomery returned the kickoff 20 yards to his 22. Roberts, McCall and Montgomery carried for 4, 4 and 5 yards to make it first down for T.C.U. on its 35. Roberts lacked less than a yard of first down on a quick opener through the middle, then made the distance for first down on the 45 after Meyer had dropped a dazzling, whirling pass from Baugh. Marquette here went into a 5-1-2-2-1 defense as a guard against the vaunted Frog aerial attack, managed to stop Roberts on a ground play for no gain and then — Sam went to slinging again. Little Dutch Meyer, who scored all the Christians' points, raced down the field, got behind Art Guepe and made a magnificent, leaping catch of a beautifully timed 31-yard throw from Baugh and raced the remaining 24 yards for what proved the winning touchdown. He also place-kicked the extra point and the score was 10 to 6.
+Throughout the early stages of the fourth quarter the Purple reserves furnished most of the show. Once David O'Brien whirled a pass to Pat Clifford to complete a first down on the Marquette 19 and McClure plowed for three more paces but the drive went awry when Cuff stepped in to intercept one of the former Woodrow Wilson High star's heaves. There was not another serious threat by either side and the game closed with the Cowtown Christians on top of the gridiron world with victories in the last two starts over a highly touted Midwestern power and a previously untied, unbeaten eleven that only Friday was surprise winners of the Sugar Bowl spectacle.
