Mountaineers Humbled, 27-0 Gambino Scores Three Touchdowns COLLEGE PARK, Nov. 1 (UP) Lu Gambino, a 200-pounder with the speed of a whippet, racked up three touchdowns today to pace Maryland to a 27-0 upset victory over West Virginia. The biggest crowd ever to Jam its way into Byrd Stadium, 16,500. saw inspired Maryland score twice In the first period and then seal victory by converting two last-period pass interceptions into touchdowns. Gambino Stars Gambino broke the game wide open by racing 43 yards oft tackle in the opening period for his first touchdown Maryland's second.

Then, in the final period, he hauled down two scoring passes in the end zone one a 32-yarder from Quarterback Vic Turyn and the other a 14-yard toss from Joe Tucker, Turyn's understudy. The Mountaineers netted only one yard rushing and moved inside Maryland's 20-yard line only twice being held for downs on the 19 in the third period and moving to the 10 in the final seconds of play. Turyn' Tasses Tell Maryland moved 77 yards for a touchdown the first time it got the ball. Turyn completed five passes for five, the last a 10-yard touchdown pass to End Elmer Wingate in the end zone. Guard Tom Mc-Hugh made the first of three consecutive conversions.

Then Gambino roared 43 yards on a quick opening play through tackle to put Maryland safely in front. West Virginia took to the air in the final period in a desperate attempt to pull even. But the strategy back-fired. The Maryland secondary intercepted one pass on its 39 then moved to its third touchdown with Gambino pulling down Turyn's pass. The fourth and final touchdown was a carbon copy of the third, with Mnrylmid intercepting psa on 1U 49 and moving to the Went Virginia 14.

COLUMBUS, Nov. 1 (UP) One lightning stab through the air on a long pass from George" Talia- Jferro to Mel Groomes In the first period paid off for Indiana here today In the form of a 7-0 Big Nine victory over Ohio State. The Hoosiers Negro star from Gary, Indiana, was a forward passing threat who had 75.882 fans In Ohio Stadium on edge all afternoon, but Ohio State's pass defense came through in crucial moments except for that first period thrust that meant Indiana's first Western Conference victory. Pass Taves Way to Score The play started on the Indiana 25-yard line. As Taliaferro faded back, Groomes.

who had just entered the game, floated past the Ohio secondary, took the ball over his shoulder on the gallop, and would have gone all the way if he had not slipped and fallen on the Ohio 12-yard line. The 63-yard gain proved a spark for Indiana. Two plays later Taliaferro slid off left tackle almost untouched for four yards and the touchdown. Rin Grossman kicked the extra point. Buck Runiierit Stopped A rangy, fast-moving Indiana line took over the ball game from there as Casimir Witucki, Center joe Polce and Bob Ravensberg at end teamed perfectly to strangle Ohio State's running game, either up the center or at the The Buckeyes tried to steal Bo McMillins thunder with an aerial attack of their own, and twice in the second half drove into Indiana territory.

In the third period, a pass from Pandel Savic to Jim Hague carried to the Hoosier's 22-yard line, but Groomes intercepted another Savic pass in the end zone and ran it out 30 yards to quell that uprising. Fumble Stops Ohio State Again in the fourth period, after Rod Swinehart rambled 42 yards on a deep reverse to the Indiana eight. Ohio State failed. This time it was a fumble by Ollie Cline that Bill Bartkiewicz grabbed on the 10-yard line, and for the second week in a row Ohio State went scoreless. The game was bitterly fought, so much so that a pile-up in the fading moments ended in a general melee, and a player from each team was thumbed out by the officials.

The victory gave Indiana a Conference record of two defeats, a win and a tie. while Ohio state plunged into the Conference cellar with only a tie with Iowa to show for three starts. Position I.E. I. L.G.

But in the end they went down before the Gophers, who were big, eager and far too numerous, before a crowd of 56,324. Minnesota poured over three touchdowns and added a safety for 23 points in the final period when it was quite evident that Pitt was ready for the coup de grace. Up until that time the Golden Gophers liad all the football they could stomaclL Pur one period at least the second they were outplayed, and the six-point lead they carried for three quarters was anything but comfortable. Same Old Story The Panthers were a sharp team In the first half. They not only held the Minnesotans to four first downs, but generated a scoring threat of their own seconds before the intermission that died only when the clock ran out on them.

But as has been true all season, Pitt couldn't take what it needed with them on the field after half-time. Bill Elliott, a squirmy fullback, rocked through from a yard out in the first quarter for a touch- Pitt Opponents PURDUE. 21: Iowa. O. PENN STATE.

down and Marvin Ilein, Ralph Mc-AlLster and Frank Brown were the scorers in the late upsurge. Don Bailey place-kicked three of the four conversions, his first attempt being blocked by End Frank Capello. Safety Against Rlckards The safety was scored against Paul Rickards when he made an effort to pass from his end zone. The ball was partially fumbled and before he could get it away Rickards was pinned down by Jack Stuhlman, the right end. The Gophers knitted their first touchdown out of a hurried kick by Bill Hardisty and a pair of on-the-target passes by Everett Faunce, who today was by far Minnesota's most dangerous back.

Hardisty had to angle hie punt from the 24-yard line in order to by-pass a pair of wouM-be blockers and the ball went out of bounds on the Pitt 42. Faunce Sparks Drive Faunce took up rrom there. squirtinK a pass to Larry Halenkap for a first down on the 21 and another to Bud Grant on the 12. He then drove left tackle for seven yards, after which the scoring was left to Elliott. Pitt held him twice, but he burst through on the third plunge.

That was the payoff for the Gophers for a long time. They threatened, however, in the last minute of the first quarter and the early part of the second. A fumble by Capello alter he had taken a pass from Jimmy Robinson for first down on the Pitt 30 was covered by Jim Malosky for Minnesota. They went relentlessly down to the 10 where Sub Halfback Don Johnson obliged by dropping the ball Into Wib Forsythe's lap to enable the Panthers to wriggle out of their dilemma. Hardisty's Punts Help The Panthers promptly ground out a pair of first downs to reach their 37, only to be halted by a Louie Cecconi bobble that he recovered, but for a seven-yard loss.

Hardisty then began a kicking exchange with Elliott and McAlis-ter and had the better of it. On the first the Panthers reached midfleld on the strength of hard running by Carl Depasqua and Bobby Lee and a short pass to Lee by Robinson. They traded kicks once more and Pitt found itself on its 40 with time running out. Depasqua faded to pass, found an alley to his right and raced 15 yards to the Gopher 44. A DePasqua-Cecconl flip added six and when the Gophers failed to rush Cecconi, little Louie ran through for 21 yards and a first down on the Minnesota 17.

Rickards Has No Chance There were nine seconds left when Paul Rickards tried to pass but he never had a chance to raise his arm, for Halenkamp roared in from the wing and buried him under nil his 205 pounds. The Gophers gave a hint of what was to come when they barged out to start the second half. Before Pitt could cool them oft they had crossed the 50-yard line and were on the Panther 35. Billy Bye was the detonator of tills explosion as he shredded the tackles and clicked with Bill Thiele for a 16-yard aerial. But the Panthers did hold here and got back to their own 47 before they were checked by another fumble and Hardisty had to kick them out of the hole.

Gophers Start to Roll Minnesota appeared to have a touchdown on the fire when it stormed 59 yards with Bye and Bud Hausken as the principal carriers, but Tony Dimatteo wakened them from that dream by intercepting a Faunce pass and running it back 34 yards to the Panther 40. It was a short-lived respite, though, for Warren Deson gave a Rickard toss the same treatment on the next play, and the Gophers were on the attack again. This time they didn't stop.

As soon as they got their hands on the ball, they came back 61 yards to the one and sent Bye over only to have the touchdown recalled by an offside penalty.

The Tanthers eventually held on the four, but yielded a safety. Hardisty's free kick was brought back to the Pitt 38 by McAlister, and in six plays, there was another touchdown. McAlister bulled along for 14 yards for this one. Hardisty Gamble Fails A wild gamble near the end enabled the Gophers to pile up another seven points.

tight defense for a 46-0 victory over Colgate. i Penn State rolled up the highest score ever attained in its 37-year -rivalry with the Red Raiders by superior play in every department. Mixing mercy with his magic. Coach Bob Higgins threw in his reserves to the last half, but the momentum of the teams power diminished only slightly in the final quarter when State pushed over two touchdowns. State Uses 42 Players State used 42 players in a futile attempt to hold down the score.

The victors, unbeaten and untied in six games, were limited to one touchdown in each of the first two quarters. The Penn State power reached full bloom in the third period with 20 points. State's burly 200-pound forward wall, rated the top defensive unit in the nation, threw the Red Raiders to a minus 15 yards on the ground. Colgate Gets 4 Downs Penn State netted 412 yards by running and 103 through the air. Colgate advanced 77 yards through the all lanes, but notched only four downs to 21 for State.
