State Atlanta, Oct. 22 (AP) Georgia Tech unwrapped its passing game for the first time this season today and mixed it with a strong ground attack to trounce ambitious but outmanned Florida State 34-0 in a football mismatch. Tech Coach Bobby Dodd used his first two units to build a 20-0 lead and then emptied the bench to complete the rout before a shirt-sleeved crowd of about 30,000. It was Tech's fifth victory against one loss this year and its third triumph of the season over a Florida team. Toppy Vann, Tech's No.

Some 31,000 homecoming, fans saw Pitt players recover four of the bobbles, throw up a steely screen for two touchdowns by air and gauge the course of the game as early as the second period. Game Is Near Rout At that point Pitt quarterback Corny Salvaterra faked a hand-off, hoodwinked all the Dukes and took his time to loft a 37-yard touchdown pass to end Joe Walton. With Paluck and his beefy cohorts rushing Duke quarter back Sonny Jurgensen "unmercfri fully, the Panthers forced the game into a near rout in the second half, scoring one in the third and twice In the final period. Pitt subs engineered the last score as the final humiliation to the proud Blue Devils, who let their frayed tempers loose with fists in the closing minutes. After the final Pitt score, Duke tackle Bill Konicek, a 232-pounder from Cicero, 111., went into a fist-swing rage and had to be dragged from the field by his teammates.

Paluck Standout The win erased an old scar on Pitt's memory going back to 1938 when Duke defeated one of Jock Sutherland's greatest teams Flyers' errors were less numer u. ous in the second half, but they still lost the ball, once on a pass interception and once on a fum ble. Dayton's only score came in the second quarter on a 77-yard drive, which featured a 45-yard aerial from quarterback Ken Bockenstette to end Ron Finotti. The pass play started on Dayton's own 45 and wound up on the Vols' 11 after the ball was deflected from the hands of fullback Lon Herzbrun into the juggling fingers of Finotti. Dayton scored four plays later on another Bockenstette-to-Finotti pass from the six.
