There will be a few malfunctions along the route, perhaps a fatal one, but the Zips appeared to have title material in a leather-cracking, 14-6 triumph over a good Muskingum team here Saturday night in the opener for both schools. Using a power-laden attack and sticking close to menacing thrusts into the Muskies' nine-man line, the Zips wore their hosts weary in the second half after being kicked around a bit in the first segments. The victory readied the Zips for their big game of the season, the Acme-Zip spectacular with Baldwin-Wallace at Bubber Bowl Saturday night. There was reason to believe somebody up there loves By PHIL DIETRICH Fumbles marred the first annual Shrinp football game for crippled children Saturday night at Kent's Memorial Stadium, but Xavier University senior George Potts of Nor-walk didn't fumble his chance. His 50-yard placement in the second period touched off a Musketeer scoring splurge and provided the difference as the down-staters won a weird struggle from host Kent State University, 9-8.

Unable to generate offensive wallop for two quarters, Kent finally got into the end zone on a two-yard burst off tackle by sophomore Fullback Willie Asbury on the final play of the third period. That touchdown matched the one big Bob Daumeyer put on the scoreboard in the final seconds of the first half on a INDIANA'S NATE RAMSEY STRETCHES FOR EXTRA YARDS AS KANSAS STATE'S LARRY CONDIT HANGS ON Roar Past Kansas State Hoosiers Just Won't i bullseye pass from Steve Joern, good for 20 yards, Just to prove how important Potts field goal really I was, Kent Quarterback Jimmy Flynn threw a strike of the Zips. A dense fog which prohibited visibility beyond a range of 10 yards or so settled across a packed house of 5,000 at McConagha Stadium in the second half. This rendered virtually useless the passing of Muskingum's fiery Quarterback Jim Burson. Forced to stay on the ground, the Muskies simply didn't have the firepower to get the job donf.

Tackling left a lot to be desired on a number of occasions, marring an otherwise good showing by the Zips. The Muskie attack also sustained a crippling blow in the second quarter when speedy Halfback Tom Frazier suffered a fractured collarbone. THE SCORE which gave the Zips a bit of working room came late in the third period when Akron charged 64 yards in 11 plays. George Deo, the team's leading ground gainer last year, with 857 yards, bolted 36 yards to the Muskingum 40 to spearhead the drive.

Steady running by Ray Matthews and a key sprint of seven yards by Joe Richardson to the Muskingum two were instrumental in the drive. Deo then bolted over on the dazzler. The Hoosiers were penalized 16 times, many for clipping and personal fouls. The previous school record for penalties was 140 yards, against Notre Dame in 1951.
