Mzrr Tnr Awesome rm 1 "TTK T1 II 1 ft luisa siireas rroua Cincy Defense, 49-6 iftt 1 'bTEtt! I'M? ts I BY BILL FORD Of The Enquirer Staff TULSA, Okla. Bill Anderson, the golden-armed quarterback University of Tulsa retained only to pitch pass defense on the practice field, mercilessly paralyzed Cincinnati with six touchdown strikes Saturday and ran for another in a fantastic one-man show that blitzed the bewildered Bearcats, 49-6. A sun-bathed crowd of 24,867 blinked in amazement as the slender senior from Ferris, completed 32 of 55 pass attempts for 451 yards that flogged Cincinnati with its worst defeat in 10 years. Not since Hardin-Sim-mons ran up 53 points in 1955 had a Bearcat team been subjected to such demoralizing humiliation. But decided his son, Glenn III, had the better skill to quar-back the team, had thrown four touchdown passes by halftime when the Hurricane bolted into a 27-0 lead.

He ran for a score himself in the third quarter, then capped his spectacular afternoon with two more TD bombs in the last period. The Bearcat defense, well aware of the tremendous skills of favored receiver Howard Twilley, loaded up on him for one half. But Anderson, piloting the Hurricanes since the start of the season when an injury forced out Dobbs, selected halfback Neal Sweeney as a principal target. Sweeney, the nation's fourth best receiver, caught the first three TD passes, covering 13, 12 and three yards. Then when the Cincinnati defense was forced to do something about Sweeney, Anderson alertly began to pitch to Twilley.

Twilley caught two touchdown throws in the fourth quarter for 43 and 13 yards and en route broke a National Collegiate Athletic Association record and equalled another. His 11 catches for 226 yards gave Twilley a record 2679 yards for his career, toppling the 2453 by Washington State's Hugh Campbell in 1960-62. Con jar Jars USC Notre Dame fullback Larry Conjar is shown scoring three of the four touchdowns he racked up against South-em California Saturday. Top, he goes over with 6:46 left in the first quarter; middle, he scores again in the opening quarter with 1:55 remaining; and bottom, he hits pay dirt with 9:13 to go in the second period. He added his fourth TD in the third quarter.

Anderson, forced to play for two years behind Tulsa's 28-7 BY DICK FORBES Of The Enquirer Staff CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. Heggie Ferreira, a native Brazilian who learned the art of accurate kicking playing soccerball, kicked i two field goals, the last with only 40 seconds to play, and a point-after touchdown Saturday night that provided the difference as University of Chattanooga upset Xavier's stunned Musketeers, 15-14, before 8000 fans at Chamberlain Field. Ferreira, a 5-9, 150-pound freshman at a school where the frosh are allowed to play on the varsity team, ran up to the ball sideways and kicked it unerringly with the side of his foot from the 34-yard line that ended the five-game Musketeer winning streak and hopes for an undefeated season. It was the fourth time Chattanooga had beaten Xavler in as many tries, preserving a Moccasin jinx but play that really cost the game occurred eight minutes earlier as the Mus-kies attempted to punt out of trouble on their own 24-yard line. The center snap sailed far over would-be kicker George Wilson's head into the end zone.

Wilson ran back, picked up the ball and scampered out of the field for a two-point safety that narrowed Xavier's lead from 14-10 to 14-12, setting up Ferreira's winning kick. Jim Davis' fumble of a Moccasin punt after he signaled for a fair catch set the stage for Chattanooga's touchdown late in the first period. The Mocs recovered on the Xavier 29 and scored in four plays, aided by a personal foul penalty to the 10-yard line. Quarterback Don Shaver scored on a 10-yard gallop around right end, Ferriera converted on a soccer-ball kick, and the Mocs had a 7-0 edge. They never seriously threatened again in the first half.

Bob Zalena ran 32 yards around the right side, and on the next play Williams hit Anthony on a touchdown pass to give the Muskies their first lead. Danek kicked the point for a 14-7 score with 10:56 left to play. The Moccasins fought right back with a march to the Xavier 36, quarterback Larry Elmore running the club in the absence of Don Shaver, who had been injured. Chattanooga had to punt, but then held the Muskies and on fourth down a center snap sailed over Wilson's head into the end zone. Wilson ran back, grabbed the ball and simply ran out of the field for a safety, and Xavier's lead was now cut to a dangerous 14-12.

Soon after the Mocs were again on the march, starting in Muskie territory after a Xavier kickoff from the 20. But on third down, Jack Evans blitzed Elmore and threw him for a huge loss, and the Mocs had to punt from their 35. Wade's boot rolled out on the Xavier five. Xavier couldn't move the ball, and Wilson got a great return punt off that rolled dead on the Moccasin 45. Two of Elmore's passes were completed for 10 and 18 yards to McGuire and Tucker, and Chattanooga reached the XU 28-yard line with 1:03 to play.

The shattering onslaught, in an awesome demonstration of line charging and backfield drive that chewed off steady pieces between the tackles against eight and nine man Southern California barriers, piled up 18 first downs and 308 yards rushing. This was doing it the hard way.

Without much of an aerial attack, the Irish marched 45, 32, 68 and 67 yards to their four scores. Conjar plunged over from the four for the first with With time running rapidly out, Xavier finally came up with the big play. Cap-poni blocked Wade's punt on the 32 and O'Connell recovered on -the 20. On the first play Williams, after running all over the field, spotted Abramo-wicz in the end zone, and hit his favorite target for a touchdown with 1:58 to play. Dankel kicked the tie-ing point, and that's how it stood at the half.

Chattanooga pounced on Davis's fumble early in the second half, and took over on the Muskie 24, but four plays later the Mocs were back on the 39 and had to punt. Starting on their own 17, the Muskies then marched to the Chattanooga 25. But on fourth down, Dankel's field goal attempt from the 36 was far too short, and the Moccasins took over. Chattanooga then started a march from its 20, and after reaching the Moccasin 43, Shaver hit Meads on a pass down the middle and he ran to the Xavier 14. The Mocs went to the six on two plays, then Gregory dropped a pass on the goal line.

On fourth down, Hegi Ferreira, a Brazilian soccer-ball kicker, booted a 25-yard field goal and Chattanooga led, 10-7, with 12 minutes, 34 seconds left to play. Immediately after Junker returned the kickoff 45 yards to the Xavier 46, giving Xavier good field position. Williams hit Abram-owicz for a nine-yard pass, get on the board with a consolation marker in the third period. (See Lou Smith's Column On Page 6-E) Smashing more holes in the Southern California line than there are on a punch board, Conjar tied a modern Notre Dame record by scoring all four of the Irish touchdowns. Bob Kelley set the modern record In 1944.

Neil Worden scored four times in 1951 and Johnny Lattner duplicated his feat in 1953. The all-time Notre Dame mark of five was set by Red Maher in 1923. Completing only two of seven passes, once -beaten Notre Dame smashed and blasted away through an afternoon of unending drives over the soggy turf, as their wild-cheering students chanted "remember remember 329 days The overwhelming victory left the Hurricane with a clear-cut shot at the Missouri Valley Conference championship with a 2-0 league record. Cincinnati 2-1 with just one conference game remaining on its schedule. The Bearcats, pitifully hounded by the monstrous Tulsa line which averaged 239 pounds a position, crossed midfield only once in the first half and averted a shutout when fullback Jack Rekstis caught a pass from third -string quarterback Mike Flaherty on the five and stumbled into the end zone.

The play, with 2:19 remaining, covered 29 yards and was set up by a 25-yard run by Rekstis that carried to the Tulsa 29 yard line. Four plays later Flaherty zipped the payoff pitch. But Tulsa long before had wrapped it up. As a matter of fact, the scoring pass with which Anderson hit Sweeney early in the first quarter followed by Twilley's successful conversion from placement was enough to clinch it as matters un-folded. (See Picture On Page 9-tJ Anderson, now with 1864 yards in six games, drove the Hurricane for long distances.

The seven touchdown parades covered 64, 56, 91, 56, 54, 66 and 51 yards In that sequence. The Bearcats, boasting the nation's best rushing defense and ranked fourth nationally in total defense, saw their stingy figures blown to smithereens by the scintillating throws of Anderson. Totaled, the Hurricane amassed 534 yards in stinging the Cincinnatians with their third defeat against as many victories.

Notre Dame's pulverizing power ground Southern California into the Notre Dame Stadium turf Saturday, 28-7, in rain, murk and fog before an overflow crowd of 59,235.

Ara Parseghian's masto-donic lads were brutal in their unremitting pressure on the stubborn but out-manned Trojans in avenging last season's 20-7 defeat that knocked them out of the national championship. They socked and rocked and blocked. They powered out yardage when needed. They anchored like Gibraltar when it counted. For three quarters it was all Notre Dame.

The fighting Irish, led by the bulllike rushes of fullback Larry Conjar, scored two touchdowns in the first quarter, and one each in the second and third periods, before permitting the Trojans to 6:46 remaining to be played in the first quarter, and with 1:55 remaining in the initial stanza, bulled over from the three for the second. He had to go less than a yard for the third TD in the second, and went over from the one-foot line for the fourth and final Irish tally in the third. Kenny Ivan's unerring foot added the extra point after each Irish touchdown. However, the real heroes of this dreary day were the Notre Dame linemen, who carved huge wedges in the shifting Southern Cal defenses. Defensively, one of the outstanding teams in the country, Notre Dame yielded only 74 yards on the ground, while doing a great job of stopping the Trojans' great halfback Mike Garrett, a stickout Ail-American candidate, that was until today.

Garrett was held to a net gain of 43 yards, with only seven of this total coming in the first half. Garrett carried the ball 16 times. In the Trojans' previous five games he had reeled off 140, 154, 172, 175, and 205 yards in becoming one of the greatest running backs in the history of West Coast football. Some idea of the unrelenting defense put up by the Notre Dame lines, led by Tom Regner and Dick Arrington, can be gained from the fact that until they marched 76 yards for their third-period touchdown, the Trojans had failed to cross the midfield stripe. In fact, their own 34-yard line were as far as they could get in the first half.

Also very much in the victory spotlight for the Irish was Tom Rhoads, former Cincinnati St. Xavier star. Playing right end on Ara Parseghian's defense unit, he repeatedly got through the Trojan blockers to toss quarterback Troy Wlnslow for losses. But Saturday the Tro-jans didn't deserve to be mentioned in the same breath with the Irish, who outplayed them by a wide margin in all departments. The Trojans could rack up only one first down in the one-sided first half, which saw the Irish grind out 218 yards and 13 first downs in scoring three times, and they didn't have to punt once.

Parseghian was elated with the play of his lads. "Spirit plays an important part in any football game, and today we were really up," he said. NOTRE DAME .14 7 7 028 SO. CALIFORNIA 0 0 0 77 Notre Dama Conjar 2, plunge (Ivan kick). Notre Dame Coniar 2, plunja (Ivan kick).
