14 OT Hardin-Simmons did the expected here Saturday night, preserving its unblemished Border Conference record and trimming the crippled New Mexico Aggies, 39-0. The Cowboys struck twice in the first quarter, first on the arm of quarterback Dee Windsor and again on an 87-yard jaunt by halfback Rodney Williams.

Andrews missed the conversion kick. NMMI Squeezes By ENMU Greyhounds, 7-6 ROSWELL. Nov. 14 The Broncos of New Mexico Military Institute fought off repeated threats bv Eastern New Mexico to down the Greyhounds 7-6 in a New Mexico Conference football game. Eastern, led oy a Bevy or nara-running backs, repeatedly threatened the slim NMMI lead but wvro unship to ffpt the needed yardage at crucial times.

Jack Kennedy passed for 32 yards and ran for 16 in a second period NMMI drive that brought them their touchdown. Norman Kinder cracked over from a yard out and Kenny Shel-ton kicked the game-winning conversion. I side penalty put play on the one and Terpening bulled over at 8:11. The vital extra point producea a comedy or penalties. Twice Wyoming was caught in infractions and the Lobos took one vio lation as Ray Guerette thrice tried the conversion.

Disgustedly, Guerette took a direct pass from center and skirted right end to make it 7-0. Late in the stanza, the Lobos moved to Wyoming's 30 but the drive stalled. Guerette returned to the lineup to try a field goal from a 20-degree angle but the boot went wide though the dis tance was true from 37 yards out Wyoming center Frank Ra-delta's ill-aimed center pass sailed far over Mastrogiovanni's head and into the end zone with the ball on the 'Poke 20 for an automatic safety. This break carried New Mexico to its deserved win as the Lobos went to the dressing room nursing a narrow 9-0 margin. Held scoreless in the third the first time Mr.

'Alphabet and his crew had suffered such humilia tion Wyoming turned Lee's fumbled punt return on his 30 into its TD. Fullback George Galuska and Mastrogiovanni pushed the Lobo line to the UNM 11. Galuska then bowled into the end rone. With but 30 seconds gone in the fourth, Joe split the uprights to make it 9-7. The crowd held its breath throughout the final stanza as ooth clubs refused to capitalize on breaks to change the scoreboard tally.

Wayne Tucker's 28-yard pass interception deep in the losers' territory was nulllified when UNM couldn't crush the visitors' line. Lee's second fumble of a Cowboy punt on Wyoming's 45 was counter-balanced when tackle Jack Eaton deflected Bob Brush's toss and Jay Crampton scooped it up. Fullback Bob Burns kept the Lobos in possession as the clock ran out stabbing Wyoming's line to midfield. First downs were even at 12 apiece and there was but a shade difference in the rushing statis tics, Wyoming grounding out 170 to 140 by the Lobos. In the air, all 71 yards by the visitor were credited to the Cowboy from Flatbush.

Penalties gave the Lobos needed assists at perilous moments, Coach Phil Dickens' charges ab sorbing 83 yards but 8 more tnan officials inflicted on New Mexico, however. But penalities, statistics and the presence of 11 high school bands pins 1509 Boy Scouts failed to o'ershadow the outstanding Lobo forward wait White bolstered his All-American stork 100 per crntnlth perhaps his finest defensive performance, being In on two-thirds of all plays and making a third of the Lobo tackles as lineman, line-backer and pass defender for 60 minutes. White gained able assistance from ends Bob Morgan and Guer ette plus guard Crampton up front. Morgan and Crampton solidified their All-Skyline bid, also going the entire distance with out relief. And Jim Bruening was Whites ready assistant on most of the life-saving tackles in the secondary.

And in the end, It was White, playing the entire 60 minutes, who bulwarked the I'NM line to its greatest victory that of smothering the Cowboy from Brooklyn national offensive leader before Saturday's fray.

Joe M. had gained a total of 1302 yards in eight games for a 162.8 average. Saturday, the little cowpoke added 71 yards in the air on eight of 18 passes, was rocked for a mere 22 net aground in 19 carries and a 93 net his lowest ebb this year against such powers as Iowa and Utah. After Wyoming's 51-yard drive sputtered out midway in the scoreless first period, New Mexico opened an B4-yara drive of its own which produced the Lobos' sole score. With Bobby Lee cutting sharply inside and outside tackle, UNM advanced the ball to the Cowboy eight.

"I like 'em, I like 'em, I like 'em," said Bruening of the Lobos, of course, as well-wishers and parents jammed the dressing room. Said giant 230-pound tackle Jack Eaton: "That was fun." His lips were cut and his nose was a pulpy mess. He along with Bod-by Morgan, Jay Crampton, Dick Lauderdale, and Ray Guerette were the outstanding UNM linemen.

Despite the tenseness of the game, a little humor was injected when Guerette. after three attempts at kicking an extra point, gave up and finally ran Into the end sone for the 'point. The first boot was wide, the second was good, and the third was blocked. But penalties nullified all three. The Lobos weren't supposed to have a oassing attack, but Robert Burns almost led UNM to a score in the second period.

Colorado Shades Nebraska Huskers, 14-10 LINCOLN. Neb. Nov. 14 (INS) Nebraska came within one foot of winning a thrill-packed home coming football game with Colorado this afternoon but lost, 14-10, before 36.000 homecoming fans.

An offside penalty against Colorado gave the Cornhuskers a needed first down on the Buffa loes' five with 90 seconds left. But Colorado's line stiffened and held the Huskers as Rav Novak scrambled to the one foot on a fourth down. line WARM 2 Hours Free Parking FAMOUS greatest Cowboy of them all Joe Mastrogiovanni, total offense leader of the nation, nnleashed all the fury of his 5-6, 190 pounds. The stubborn Lobo forward wall, led by linebacker Larry White and Jim Bromine, bent but held. The Cowboy from Brooklyn only gained 22 yards on the ground and 71 yards in the air for his poorest showing of the season, including performances against such teams as Iowa of the Big Ten, Utah, Skyline Conference leader, and Oklahoma A Si M.

Mastrogivannl, who has a name like an Italian Renaissance painter, was only able to decorate the scoreboard with one point He booted an extra point in the third Seriod after Wyoming drove for only touchdown. White, who boosted his stock considerably as an All-American candidate for center, could hardly be heard in the wild jubilation of the Lobo dressing room. "Joe Is a good ball player. He is really fast and shifty for his weight," the 198-pound renter said admiringly. "Bat that (George) Galuska Is either a great ball player or else I'm not very good linebacker." There was no doubt about White's ability to the 13,000 fans that jammed Zimmerman Field as he and Mastrogiovanni collided like two wild-eyed steers.

On one occasion the New Mexico Junior hurled the Mastro for a nine-yard loss. Galuska and Chick Magagna were the back that kept blowing holes in the Lobo line, with Mastrogiovanni acting as a decoy. In another part of the locker room, Coach Bob Titchenal's amile was much bigger than usual. "Their running game was the highlight of the whole game," he said. "Our defense did a good job of bottling up Mastrogiovanni.

Galuska and Magagna were the runners who gave our defense the most trouble. The victory also gave the amiable New Mexico mentor a good chance to be named "Sky line Conference Coach of the Year." His predecessor, Dr. Dudley DeGroot, won the honor last year. But the Lobos haven't seen the last of Mastrogiovanni. He's only a sophomore and New Mexico will be hearing from him again In the next two years.
