1 kca wo Huskers Smother MU Title Hopes By Dave Lipman Of the Post-Dispatch Staff LINCOLN, Oct. 31--Missouri won the toss today, but, unfortunately, that was all in a football game as close as the flip of a coin. Against an unbeaten Nebraska team that struck late with a vengence that had to spring from desire, the scratching and clawing Tigers found that frustration was spelled Mizzou. As a result, Missouri had Big Huarfe Pitches 3 TPs Irish Bomb Navy, 40-0 (Picture on Page 4) PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 31 (AP)-Unbeaten Notre Dame, ranked No.

2 among the nation's college football teams, rolled to its sixth straight victory today, a 40-0 romp over Navy that included three touchdown passes by John Huarte. The score equalled Notre ft ST. LOUIS Summaries Dame's 1949 rout of the Middies, i 1 1 .1 io me must tupMucu in uie oo-gamc series. Jack Snow, Huarte's favorite target and his summer pitch-and-catch pal at Anaheim, grabbed two scoring passes. The fleet split end caught seven passes, tying Jim Kelly's Irish season record of 41 receptions.

Coach Ara Parseghian's Irish shut out Roger Staubach, last year's All-America quarterback, who- has been handicapped by an injured left heel. However, Staubach completed 19 of 36 for a Naval Academy record. Notre Dame struck quickly in the second period for three touchdowns after a scoreless first quarter. Huarte tossed a screen pass to Nick Eddy, who went 74 yards behind a covey of blockers that' included everybody but Parseghian. Then Huarte hit Snow with a 55-yard bomb.

Bill Wolsku crashed over from the one after a 44-yard Huarte-to-Snow pass set up the score. The Irish stuck to the ground most of the way in the second nawKs op rlStOnSTOr Third Win By John J.

Last-Second Tackle Seals Buckeye Victory Eight title hopes and a string of 22 games without failing to score snuffed out by the Cornhuskers, 9-0. Frustrating? Why, it was one of those days on which 01' Mis-sou if it had been given the coin after winning the flip would have found it had come up with a lead half dollar. The Tigers were so close, yet so far. A knockout punch early could have made the difference against these bulky but quick Cornhuskers who have rushed to seven straight victories this year and 14 in a two-year period. Hitting on any one of three missed field goals before Nebraska broke the ice with a fourth-quarter safety and then a 37-yard touchdown pass might have altered the game.

Or maybe a fourth-and-inches plunge by Gary Lane that was stopped for no gain on the Nebraska 21 in the second quarter might have turned the tide if it had been successful. Mizzou, the only Big Eight team that has defeated a Corn-husker squad coached by Bob Devaney in his three highly successful seasons here, lost not by score, if you will, but by inches. Don't sell the defending Big eight champion Huskers short, though. Those few inches of difference measured mighty big today, especially when you consider that their No. 1 quarterback, Bob Churchich, nursing a sprained ankle suffered Wednesday, did not come into the game until the start of the second half.

Then, with Churchich in the driver's seat which he had assumed in Nebraska's third game this year when No. 1 quarterback Fred Duda was lost for the sea son with a broken leg the Husk- nest tolal detensei ana tne Die circus play. The defense has to be given credit for holding off Mizzou until earlv in Hie fnnrth neriod. And it was the defense that sud denly put the first points on the scoreboard. With second and nine from his 13 after a ferocious Mizzou defense led by Rich Bern-sen stopped Nebraska on the Tiger 13 Lane faded to pass.

The intended bomb blew up in his face. Defensive end Langston Coleman crashed from the right. Nobody hit Coleman. But he hit Lane on the blind side and Lane fell just across the goal line by inches for a safety. Nebraska led, 2-0, with 12 minutes- 34 seconds left in the eame.

It looked like that might be it on an afternoon when frustration killed what Tiger boss Dcvine called Mizzou's greatest effort in his seven seasons with MU. But then the circus came to town. Nebraska put a punt into play on its 41. Ripping Kent McCloughan, a 9.6-sccond sprinter in the 100-yard dash who tore at Mizzou all day but never quite broke away early, smashed for three yards.

The gents who decide the point spread must have been playing a hunch. -r This defeat was, at any rate, decidedly upsetting to the Illini.

The Hawks began slipping the ball to Cliff Hasan when there was a shooting opportunity and Cliff responded with pot shots into the net.

The Hawks went ahead on a driving shot by Beaty in the opening minute of the second period and although Detroit regained the lead briefly a few times, St. Louis gradually took charge.

Chico Vaughn sank his third field goal midway in the period to make it 44-37 in the Hawks' favor.

St. Louis had just a two-point lead when Len Wilkens came down the court just before the end of the half.
