(U.P.) Kansas State college marred the University of Wichita's homecoming celebration Saturday by lacing the Wheat-Shockers, 15-0, in a game that produced numerous threats but little scoring. K-Staie first scored in the second quarter when Jim I'n-gles hit center for 25 yards to the five, where he fumbled. Bob Mooney grabbed up the loose ball and pounded over for the touchdown. A fumble on the attempted conversion spoiled the extra point try. Wichita came back 59 yards on three passes, but the threat faded on K-State's 14.

Kansas State rolled the Wichita line again late in the third quarter and when the fourth period opened HALFBACK RONNIE WEBSTER SCORED FROM THE 29. The conversion try was good.

PHILADELPHIA, PENN. UP) Hard-running- Michigan churned Franklin Field Saturday with end runs, line smashes and forward passes and in the process buried Penn under a 41 to 19 score before 48.000 awed spectators. In chalking up their sixth victory in seven starts and handing the Quakers their worst defeat in George Hunger's n-y ear coaching regime, the Wolverines operated to perfection behind a 'T" formation that piled up a net of 376 yards from rushing compared to Navy's 227 yards against Penn last week. Penn showed Itself particularly weak on lateral passes that resulted lit wide end runs the Ann Arbor lads piled up a 34-0 half-time edge and then relaxed as the Quakers tallied three second-half touchdowns against second stringers. Although minus the services of Bob Wiese and Bob Nussbamer.

who sparked the WolVerines to an upset over Purdue last Saturday, Gene Derricotte, Ralph Chubb, Don Lund and Joe Ponsetto formed a capable backfield with Joe Weisenberger and Warren Bentz two first-class subs. Penn's goal-line stand thwarted Michigan's first bid for a score, but Chubb's 34-yard wide end run set up the first touchdown midway of the opening period after a Quaker punt. He scooted over from the four for the first of the six Michigan touchdowns and Ponsetto converted the first of his five extra points. Four second-period scores routed Penn. Derricotte went over from the four on the second play of th period.

f4ter Ponsetto hurled a 47-yard aerial 1o Art Kenner for the third touchdown and Howard Yerges flipped a 25-yard pass to Bruce Hilkene for the fonrth. Both Renner and Hilkene were In the clear as they caught the ball for easy six-pointers. An intercepted pass led to the fifth score, Charles Wahl ran 27 yards with the misdirected aerial and Weisenburger plunged over from the four. Sparked by Andy Gordon's passes, one to Jack Rosenthal for 15 yards and one to Skippy Minsi for 26, set up Penn's first touchdown in the third period with Harry Edenborn bucking over from the three. After Minisi got loose for a 63-yard touchdown run early in the fourth period to make it 34-12, Michigan's first stringers returned and drove 75 yards for a score, Chubb running wide around end 23 yards for the touchdown.

Penn's third touchdown came on four plays that covered 67 yards In the closing minutes. Gordon passed twice to Wayne Helman for 32 and 31 yards before Glenn Engleking smacked over from the two. MICHIGAN tl. PENN 19. Hilkene L.

(U.P.) The "on again, off-again" University of Missouri put on a second-half drive Saturday to upset Michigan State, one of the nation's previously unbeaten teams, 13-7, before a crowd of 4,500. Quarterback Paul Collins, THE GOAT OF TWO MISSOURI LOSSES this season, was the hero, sparking both touchdown drives and plunging for the scores. Michigan State, led by their star fullback, Jack Breslin, scored on the first play of the second quarter on a 25-yard pass from Breslin to Left End Don Grondzik.

Pete Dendrino kicked the extra point. The 185-pound Spartan Hn held Ihe Tigers to 33 yards from rushing during the first However, the Tigers, playing after the first half without the services of their star left halfback, Bill Dellastatious, who suffered a sprained leg late in the second quarter, never were stopped after Dendrino kicked off to Collins to open the last half. On the sixth play of the period, the Missouri quarterback took a lateral from Max Riley and went 25 yards to the Michigan seven. Three plays later he plunged for the score. Jim Kekeris' boot was wide.

Running attacks by both teams had bogged down midway in the period when Riley intercepted Breslin's pass on the State 35. A clipping penalty sent Missouri back to the midfield stripe. Bob Hopkins, Dellastatious' substitute at left half, flipped a five-yard pass to Bob Eigel- berger, left end, who reversed his field and went to the Spartan 27 as the quarter ended. Collins hit center for 12 yards on a quarterback sneak. Four short runs carried to Michigan State's three-yard line and the 22-year-old Collins, the only senior on the Missouri squad, went over on two plunges.

Kekeris kicked the point. Breslin, who is being groomed for all-America honors by State, made 50 yards on 14 runs. The Tigers' Dellastatious carried eight times for 36. MISSOURI 13. MICH.

UP) Cornell used passes, plunges, end-around plays and interceptions Saturday to score touchdowns against an outmanned Columbia team, the Big Red coming from behind for a 25-7 victory as the Lions absorbed their third loss of the campaign. Columbia scored in the first minute and 20 seconds when George Gilbert, end and captain, snatched a Cornell fumble on his own 45 and raced 55 yards for a touchdown, aided by a fine down-field block by end Bob Heller. That was the last time Columbia was in the game, however, for the Big Red came storming back for two touchdowns in the same session. The first march carried 49 yards, winding up with a 4-yard scoring pass from Allan Dek-debrun to Don Somers. Alex Drogin missed the placekick, and Columbia still led, 7 tp 6, but not for long.

Columbia, pinned down on its six yard line by a classy punt off Dekdebrun's toe, attempted to pass its way out of trouble, only to have Francis Snavely, sub halfback, intercept the ball in the flat and scamper 28 yards for the touchdown that won for Cornell. Cornell marched 62 yards for a marker at the start of the third. Dekdebrun hit Drogin with a 25-yard pass carrying to Columbia's four to feature the drive, and then Dekdebrun faked a pass and ripped through center for the score. Paul tallied the final Cornell touchdown in the fourth period on an end-around play. (ok.vcu as.
