V-'i I A 's 'J I- -tv i 1 r. til 'v i VNj Bob Cousy Leads Celts To Victory BOSTON, Nov. 3 (UPI)-The Boston Celtics, triggered by Bob Cousy, produced a third-quarter scoring barrage tonight to over-come the Detroit Pistons, 125-114, in a National Basketball As-sociation game at Boston Garden.

Cousy, in his thirteenth and last NBA season, broke a 55-55 half lime tie with a foul shot and then set up Sam Jones and Tommy Heinsohn twice each within a three-minute span. This was Boston's sixth victory In seven starts and Detroit's seventh consecutive loss. The Pistons have yet to win a game. Heinsohn and Detroit's Ray Scott shared scoring honors with 21 points, while Cousy, who wound up with 15 assists, eight of them in Boston's big third quarter, had 14. Piston forward Bob Ferry sat out the second half of the game In the stands dressed In his street clothes.

A team spokesman said Ferry had injured his leg, but thera was a report that a rift had developed between the former St. Louis star and Detroit coach Dick McGuire. The Pistons denied there was any friction between them. LOCAL Principla Poly College 42, Rose William Jewell 30, Washington U. 6.

The Tigers won, 16-7. i Oppose Zephyrs By John J. Archibald A pair of teams who will be battling each' other for a western division playoff spot later in the season, the Hawks and the Chicago Zephyrs, tangled in a National Basketball Association game at Kiel Auditorium last night. Cliff Hagan operated under the basket with effectiveness in the opening quarter, flipping in six field goals from a variety of angles. He added three free throws to total 13 paints In the first 10 minutes.

After drawing his third foul, he was benched for the remainder of (he half. Coach Harry Gallatin again made extensive use of his personnel, with few men playing more than 12 minutes in the half. After one quarter, the score was 35-24 in the Hawks' favor. An entirely different crew from that which started kept the pressure on the Zephyrs in the second quarter. Len Wilkcns sank four field goals and Barney Cable three.

At one stage the Ha- ks led by 17 points, 51-34, but a succession of good shots by Chicago rookie Terry Disch-inger enabled the Zephyrs to pull closer. Dischinger had seven points. In the first period and 12 in the second for a halftlr.ie total of 19 points. Walt Bellamy had 13 points. At the half, St.

Louis led, 60-50. Danie Slops DeJohn MIAMI BEACH, Fla Nov. 3 (UP1) Newcomer Billy Daniels scored a technical knockout over the more experienced Mike De-John in 10 seconds of the 10th round in their nationally-televised fight tonight. Daniels, 187, unleashed a leather blitzkrieg that knocked DeJohn down four times during the fight, caused him to stumble three other limes and had him shaky from almost the beginning to the end of the scheduled 10-rounder.

Linemen Sparkle By a Special Correspondent of fhe Post-Dispatch LAFAYETTE. Nov. 3 Undermanned Illinoils threw an Inspired defense and the daring passes of Mike Taliaferro at favored Purdue and upset the Boilermakers today, 14-10. Taliferro also got fine running from Ken Zimmerman and his other backfield mates as the Illinl ended a 15-game losing streak, the longest ever by Big Ten team. Illinois had lost 15 straight games, including non-conference matches.

The Big Ten record for consecutive defeats in league games is 17, set by Northwestern in 1913-15. The loss. Purdue's first in conference play, badly damaged Purdue's championship hopes and ruined homecoming crowd of 45,496. The last-place Illinl, hardly a chance against place Purdue, cashed in for a given third-on a blocked punt and an intercepted pass for the only two touchdowns they needed to break the Boilermakers. Then, with Purdue fighting back in the closing minutes, the Illinois defense held.

How Illinl Scored. Illinois' Taliaferro passed 23 yards to Thurman Walker for one touchdown, set up by Rich Callaghan's recovery of a blocked Purdue punt. Zimmerman went 30 yards for the other touchdown on the first play of the fourth period. A pass interception by Bill Pasko on the last play of the third period set up the final Illinois score. Jim Plankenhorn kicked both extra points.

The irrepresible Illinl who hadn't won a game since the 1960 season, threatened twice more in the fourth period. But both drives stalled and Plankenhorn missed on a pair of field goal tries. Purdue got its sputtering offense going midway through the fourth period. Ron DiGravio passed to Tom Bloom on a play that carried 66 yards to setup the lone Boilermaker touchdown. Two plays later DiGravio passed 14 yards to John Greiner for the score and Skip Ohl booted the extra point.

The Illinl were unable to move the ball after the kick-off and Purdue began a last-ditch drive with DiGravio throwing long passes. Despite a pair of long losses when he was trapped, Di Gravio got the Boilermakers to the Illinois 12. But he was forced to run on a fourth down with seven yards to go and the Illinois defense hsld. Purdue had threatened the first time it got the ball, but Don Pike intercepted a DiGravio pass on his own 4 to end the threat. A short kick and a penalty against Illinois for interfering with a fair catch gave Purdue possession on the Illini 15.

Three plays moved the Boilermakers to the 10 and Ohl kicked a fourth down field goal from the 16. Purdue led for the Only time in the game. Praise for Illinois. The Boilermakers got a break late in the first half when Don Paltani intercepted a Taliaferro pass on the Illinois 22. But three DiGravio passes fell short, including one which end Don Brooks dropped in the end zone.

"I'll take the blame for that loss," said Purdue coach Jack Mollenkopf. "It was a case of rotten planning. They deserved to win and they played well. "We just didn't have any pass defense and it wasn't all the backs' fault. Our line did not rush Taliaferro and he threw a little better than I thought he could.

Of course, he had all day. No, Illinois didn't surprise us with anything. They just beat us." Illinois-Purdue ILMWIM IF Vtalkrr, l'U. I. 1' askr, Srhuinarhfr, I llpllrr.

The Tigers, despite flashes of thunder by Bill (Thunder) Thornton, stopped the Nebraska offense, fourth best in the country before today, and forced the Cornhuskers into damaging fumbles. Mizzou got its first touchdown, a 46-yard sprint by Johnny Roland, on a reverse trap. A field goal, a booming 45-yard boot by sophomore Bill Leistritz of St. Louis, came after savage Tiiter tackles had jarred the ball loose from Nebraska backs within striking distance of the Corn-husker goal line.

The Tigers' third TD, a one-yard sneak by Jim Johnson which stretched their 10-7 third quarter margin to 16-7, also followed a recovered fumble. This fumble came on a punt and was recovered on the Nebraska 26 by Paul Underhill. And so Mizzou, a two-point favorite, passed a big but not final hurdle in its race for a conference championship. Sooners, Jayhawks Ahead. Two future Tiger foes still remain in the title scramble.

Oklahoma, which defeated Colorado today, still is unbeaten in Big Ligiit play. Kansas, a winner over Kansas State, has only one loss. Missouri now has six victories and a tie and a 4-0 conference mark. Oklahoma is 3-0 in the Big Eight. Nebraska also remained in the title picture, although the Cornhuskers" dreams of their first unbeaten season since 1915 turned into a nightmare and the road to their first conference crown since 1040 became more perilous Nebraska fans, thinking of the glory days of the '30s, gathered here hoping to see the Gm-hukers' seventh straight victory, but instead they saw their boys absorb their first defeat.

But they had some solace. After Mizzou had taken its 7-0 first-quarter lead and appeared on its way to an ea triumph, (he Cornhuskers struck paydirt for the first time in five games against the Tigers. And the play as sensational a one as homecoming fans or television viewers could wish-seemed to turn the tide for a while. You could almost say Martin's touchdown sprint climaxed a Mizzou, not a Nebraska, sure toward the goal line. Russell's Acrobatics.

The Tigers, nursing their TO lead built on Roland's TD, went nto action on their 37 when Andy Russell, who had two big interceptions for the day, made a diving one-handed catch of a pass by Nebraska's Dennis Claridgc. In six plays, the Tigers we-e on tne Mebraska IB, The big gainers were a 33-yard scree. pass from Keith Weber to Roland, whose path was cleared by a battering block by Jerry Wallach, and a 16-yard sprint by Roland. Then Roland, who had some trouble holding the ball in the first half, tried a pass. The ball was batted bv t-Hi Kirby into the arms of Nod Martin on the 12.

Martin, a whom Nebraska coach Bob De-vaney wasn't overly interested in before the season started, made his coach happy he was around. He cradled the ball on the 12, fell in behind what seemed to be a cast of a thousand blockers and fled untouched down the sideline for the touchdown w'th five minutes left in the half. John Faiman's extra point kick tied the score and the way the Cornhuskers were jumping you almost figured they were on their way toward reaping a victory. After the game, one wag said to Devine, "That was a nice herein pass." Devine answered, tongue in cheek, "Yes, it set up Nebraska's only Then, in a more sober mood, the Tiger boss, whose team cut Nebraska's lead in this series to 28-23-3 and ran up its sixth straight victory over the Huskers, added: "That was a bad mistake on our part, but it's a good lesson when it doesn't cost you a game." It didn't and the victory had hoped to reap after the touchdown turned into nothing but headaches for the Cornhuskers. It was the Tiger defensive line led by Jim Vermillion, Wallach, Conrad Hitchler, Tom Hertz and Gene Oliver and the defensive backs, recovering fumbles and Continued on Page Col.

St. Louis has a 6-0 mark in league play. The undefeated Bills have won two and tied one in non-league games. After a scoreless first half with Wheaton, Gerry Balassi counted twice in the third period. He scored on passes from ill The Missouri Collegiate Ath- letic Union champs trailed after the first quarter, 6-2, but dominated the remainder of the game to post their seventh triumph of the campaign and to hand the Battling Bears their first home defeat of the season.

When Buschmann wasn't gnawing at the flanks behind a wave of blockers, It was Fisher up the middle on the fullback spinner. The Washing-' ton U. line, which played hard football all the way, wasn't whipped as much as It was bamboozled and outrun. The Cardinals rolled up a whopping 404 total yards while holding the Bears to 177. After giving up a safety In the first two minutes on a mix-up in the backfield compounded by the season's longest center snap a 27-yarder which sailed over and out of the end zone the bears put together a 47-yard touchdown drive.

Halfback Bud Mepham vaulted into the end zone from the one. But. for the Hilltoppers and the 5200 partisans who watched, the game went as stone cold 4 4 By a pol-DIiatch PhotnitrRiJicr. I as the bleak, gray day after this bit of first-quarter cheer. Buschmann, the 9.8 sprinter from Ritenour High, scored two touchdowns his seventh and eighth of the season and rolled up 130 yards rushing to swell his game average, which already was 108.

Most of his rambles came in key third-down situations. Fisher didn't score, but It was his threat up the middle that brought the Battling Bear cave- in at the flanks. The 190-pound senior from Kansas City gained 68 yards in 10 attempts. The Cardinal defense was also a prime factor. The fleet Jewell secondary sucked up Bear running and passing bids like a giant vacuum cleaner.

It was a snowballing frustration that contributed to Washington helplessness in the second half. The Battling Bears fooled the Cardinals early with an inside reverse which shook halfbacks Jim Powers and AI Ilucnfeld loose on gains of 14 and 7 yards to pave the way for Mepham's touchdown. Arnie Edwards's pass for the 2-point conversion hit end Don Fitzgerald in the end zone, but his cold hands couldn't hold it. Ends Jim Swain and Denny Benassi were cutting down Cardinal blocking waves beautifully and stopping the outside stuff early, but here came Fisher up the middle. He raced 37 yards on his first explosion to set up two Washington U.
