THE TERRB HAUTE STAB, MONDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 1965 11 Naughty Words Help Nebraska Remain Among Football Elite By MURRAY CHASS Associated Press Sports Writer Bobby Apisa sparked Michigan State, Bobby Burnett powered Arkansas and Profanity propelled Nebraska. Of these three. Profanity played the most significant role as the nation's top three college football teams remained unbeaten Saturday. Apisa burst for three touchdowns as top-ranked Michigan State crushed Northwestern 497, and Burnett scored twice in them burst. No.

2 Arkansas' over Texas 31-0 victory But third-ranked Nebraska edged Missouri 16-14, and it took a 15-yard penalty for profanity to get the Cornhuskers close enough to win. Nebraska, which trailed at one point 14-0, was behind 14-13 midway through the fourth quarter. The Cornhuskers were on the Missouri 34 with fourth down and about a foot to go. Charlie Winters rammed through the line for two yards, but a Missouri player questioned Winters' forward progress on the play. "I have the forward progress marked here on the sideline," head linesman Glenn Bowles told the unidentified player.

-Aw roared the Tiger. "Fifteen yards," replied the official. That put the ball on the Missouri 17. Four plays later Larry Wachholtz kicked a 26-yard field goal for the victory. The triumph was the Corn- buskers' seventh over-all and gave them sole possession of first place in the Big Eight.

The big three were joined by only two other members of the Top Ten in the winning column. Notre Dame, the fourth-rated team, whipped Navy 29-3 and lOth-ranked Alabama trimmed Mississippi State 10-7. Mississippi trounced fifth- ranked Louisiana State 23-0; Illinois dumped Purdue, No. 6. 21-0; Auburn defeated Florida, No.

Michigan State, 7-0, continued rolling toward the Big Ten title after overcoming an early 7-0 6th and Walnut Terre Haute IONTGOMERY WARD deficit. Apisa scored the Spartans' first touchdown from one yard out, and Clint Jones put ahead Apisa on a four-yard later scored on runs of two and one yard. Arkansas, 7-0, had an easy time holding its Southwest Conference lead.

Burnett, who scored in the second quarter from three yards and seven yards out, gained 81 yards in all in the first half. Navy scored its only points on Chris Hoch's 29-yard field goal before Notre Dame broke loose. Nick Eddy's 55-yard touchdown dash with a screen pass from Bill Zloch triggered the Irish. Sophomore defensive back Bobby Jones recovered a blocked field goal attempt and intercepted a pass in the final minutes of the game, preserving Alabama's victory. Mississippi recovered four Louisiana State fumbles and stole three scored two passes.

Bill touchdowns Cody pass interception and a fumble in Auburn's triumph over Flori- yard touchdown run broke open Southern Methodist's close game with Texas. Outstanding individual performances were turned in by Floyd Little, Bill Andreson and Howard Twilley.

Says Bears 'Greatly Improved 9 CHICAGO (AP) Green Bay Packer Coach Vince Lombardi heaped praise upon the Chicago Bears Sunday and then warned the Bears they have two games to play against Baltimore. The crushing 31-10 triumph, the fourth straight for Chicago since the Bears last loss a 2314 defeat to the Lombardi the Bears have arrived again.

"This club is greatly improved since we last met 'em," said Lombardi. "In fact, they're a lot better team than the 1963 return which turned the tide toward the Bears. "He has great speed, and our ladders kept misjudging said Lombardi. Asked if he thought Sayers was one of the best rookies he has ever seen break into the NFL, Lombardi laughed and said, "I haven'i been in the league that long." Bears who 1 won the champion- Lombard! was quick to point out his Packers are still in first place in the National Football League's Western Conference despite their first loss of the season. "The Bears blocked, passed and ran better than we did," said Lombardi.

"They have "Guys like Livingston and Sayers, Andy Dick Butkus weaknesses, but we didn't exploit them. No, I'm not going to say what the weaknesses are." Lombardi had hig'u praise for Bear rookie Gale Sayers, who scored one touchdown and set up another with a 62-yard punt have glaven the Bears a tremen dous lift. Not only with their great play, but they have beer instrumental in getting some the veterans to play better. Has Ronnie Bull ever had a better season? And look at the way Jon Arnett has been playing And Rudy Bukich." If there was one pleasing fac tor to the Packer coach, it was the running of Jim Taylor, who gained 50 yards in 16 attempts "This was Taylor's best game of the season. The type of garni it turned out to be gave me a chance to see some of our other players in Lombardi Bart Starr said tjuarterbacl suffered rib am shoulder injuries but would be able to play again next week Starr had one of his poorer days, completing 10 of 20 for 102 yards, but three of his passes were intercepted.
