Mr. Brown was i mends may con at the Dunn-Quigley-Ciriello Carr Foirlawn Chapel TODAY, 2 to 4 and 7 to 9 Rare Shutout Saturday's 42-0 loss at Auburn (5-1) marked the first time the Zips (2-5) have been shut out since Gerry Fautt took over as coach in 1986. It also was the first time Akron has been held scoreless since a 17-0 loss to Middle Tennessee State in 1985.

Offense not embarrassed Even though the Zips failed to score, their offense played better than expected against the stingy Auburn defense. The Zips rushed for 133 yards, ted by 74 from sophomore TB Doug Lewi. Auburn held its first four opponents to an average of 78 4 yards on the ground and 226.4 total yards. Akron finished with 264 total yards. "Doug Lewis is going to be a great one," said QB Mlks Johnson.

"He's starting to feel comfortable in there now and It's showing, tf he hits the corner you can forget it and hope you catch him down fhe field somewhere." Booming puntS Akron punter Bill Rudlson, who entered the Week sixth In the nation in punting (44-yard average), probably will move up this week despite one shanked effort of 28 yards. Rudison also had a 62-yarder from out of his end zone and finished the day with a 46.8-yard average on nine punts. Treasured moment zips cb Gary Tyler was clutching a game ball under his arm after the game. Auburn officials stopped the game and saved the ball for him after Tyler set an Akron record with his 16th career interception in the third quarter. "I came (to Akron) to play on the team and be a team player," Tyter said.

"Personal accomplishments are nice as long as I did it as a team player. My No. 1 priority has always been the team." Next up The Zips play Long Beach State next week, and the 49ers (1-5, 1-2) are coming off their first victory of the season. Dave Van Steenklste kicked a 32-yard field goal with five seconds left as the 49ers got a 24-22 Big West Conference victory over the Fullerton State Titans (2-5, 2-2) QB Jett Graham completed 20-of-34 passes for 229 yards and two touchdowns. Flash backs Surprise, surprise From all appearances, Kent State's wishbone caught Western Michigan (5-1, 3-1) by surprise in Kent's 45-28 Mid-American Conference victory in Kalamazoo Saturday.

Kent State coach Dick Crum shrugged when asked if that indeed was so. "We've always run a type of wishbone offense," Crum said. "We don't always run from the wishbone, but we use the wishbone principles in a lot of different situations." The Flashes are 3-4 overall and 1-3 in the MAC. Nickel In Change Crum used a 5-man secondary that at times became a 6-man unit in an effort to contain Western Michigan OB Tony Klmbrough, sixth In the nation in passing efficiency. "We played what we call a 'bandit' package, which is a nickel package," Crum said.

"Early, we got a good pass rush. But a team like that with big linemen (Western Michigan has the biggest offensive line in the MAC) well, we played every defensive lineman we had because (they) really get tired rushing the passer." Howell Stands OUt Kent State had a number of defensive standouts, not the least of which was DB Jamie Howell. Howell had three interceptions to push his career total to 12. The school single-game record is five by Charles (Cocky) Kllbourne against Capital in 1930, and the career record is 19 by Lou Harris (1965-67) A 6-foot-1, 185-pound senior who played scholasticalty at Perry High in Stark County, Howell narrowly missed a fourth interception when a Kimbrough pass struck him in the chest and trickled off his fingertips. "It was somewhat of an opportunity (for a good showing by Kent's secondary) but we knew coming into the game that Western had a high-powered offense (the Broncos came in averaging 407 yards) and no one had shut them down.

We knew we had to contain Kimbrough," Howell said. Howell has had such quarterbacks as Youngstown State's Chris Gamble, Akron's Mike Johnson, Eastern Michigan's Tom Sullivan, Kentucky's Glen Fohr and Chuck Broughton, Central Michigan's Jeff Bender and Ball State's David Riley throwing passes his way. "Tony is probably the best quarterback we've seen all year," Howell said. Harmon Shines Another defensive star was LB Andy Harmon. Harmon had five tackles, all unassisted, and two sacks for a total of 9 yards in losses.

Kent State sacked Western Michigan quarterbacks five times. Next up The Rashes next opponent Is MAC foe Ohio University (2-4, 2-1). The Bobcats beat traditional rival Miami of Ohio (0-7, 0-4) 38-21 in Athens as Andrew Greer rushed for 204 yards on 32 carries and scored one touchdown. Greer, a junior, ted Ohio's rushers to 370 yards. a life resident of the Akron area, and had worked as a bricklayer.

A Trust 100 Member i I I sons-in-law, Jackie and Bill Chapman, Alice and John Rodney Peete Southern Cal QB completed 16-of-22 passes for 186 yards and a TD and ran for a score as the Trojans defeated Washington 28-27. "He can beat you with the run and the pass," Washington coach Don Jamss said. "Obviously, he's faster than (UCLA's) Troy Alkman and he's not afraid to turn the corner and head downfield.

Troy is more inclined to stay back in the pocket." Troy Alkman UCLA QB completed 21-of-32 passes for two TDs and had no interceptions in a 38-21 victory over California. Aikman also ran 1 yard for a TD. "Troy Aikman was nothing short of spectacular today," UCLA coach Terry Donahue said. "I thought he was the best in America today. What he did leading our team was brilliant.

Normally, we award the game ball on Monday, but we gave It to Troy today in the locker room." Todd Ellis South Carolina QB may have taken himsetf out of the Heisman hunt with a terrible performance In a 34-0 loss to Georgia Tech. Ellis completed 15-of-35 for 151 yards and four interceptions. He also fumbled on a crucial down. Who's No. Sparking debate With top-ranked Miami losing to Notre Dame 31-30.

everyone is wondering who should get the top position now. Here are some opinions: "I still feel Miami is probably the best team In the country." Irish coach Lou HolH after Saturday's victory. "But they weren't today." "Not only do I think we have the best football team," said Miami coach Jimmy Johnson, "but the classiest team." However, Johnson was forced to add: "Notre Dame deserves all the credit. They did what they had to to win "It's really hard to tell (who is No. 1)," UCLA QB Troy Alkman said.

"By the end of the season, whoever is No. 1, it will be justly deserved." UCLA was second-ranked last week and, after beating California 38-21 and hopes to take Miami's place. "I've never had a No. 1 team since I've been here, and it would be nice," said UCLA coach Terry Donahue. "But you guys all know that I've never worried much about the polls in the fifth or sixth week.

At this stage, I'm not going to worry much about our ranking." Settling matters There is a good chance the issue will be resolved on the field. Southern Cal plays UCLA Nov. 19, and then plays host to Notre Dame Nov. 26. Miami has Arkansas, Louisiana State and Brigham Young remaining on its schedule.

Notebook Encore? A pre-game end-zone scuffle between Miami and Notre Dame players prompted Irish coach Lou Holtz to suggest that the series should take a coollng-off break, adding, "I am talking about next year."

It's extremely unlikely that UM would agree. Notre Dame is Miami's only highlight on a 1989 home schedule that also includes California, Missouri, Cincinnati, San Jose State, East Carolina and San Diego State. "We'll expect to see them Nov. 25 of next year," Hurricane coach Jimmy Johnson said. "In the Orange Bowl." Not-80-lnstant replay Johnson called reporters to his office Sunday to took at replays of a controversial play at the Irish goal line that officials ruled was a fumble by Cleveland Gary.

Johnson and reporters who saw the replay said It clearly showed Gary was down before losing the ball and Miami should have had a first down. Instead the Irish had a turnover. Head referee William McDonald of the Central Intercollegiate Football Officials Association could not be reached Sunday, but CIFOA supervisor of officials Art Hyland said, "I talked to McDonald this morning. It was a judgment call. They feel it's a good call." Understatements Ninth-ranked Oklahoma must have figured an NCAA-record 768 yards on the ground against Kansas State left very little to be said.

"I think we rushed the ball well," QB Charles Thompson said after the Sooners' 70-24 victory. "A lot of backs did a lot of things," Coach Barry Swttzer said. "Our offense is getting better," offensive coordinator Jim Donnan said. One person who wasn't understating things was Kansas State coach Stan Parrlsh, who marveled at Oklahoma's 35-point first quarter. "It was like a trip to the dentist for four root canals with no Novocain," Parrlsh said.

"They just ran over us." Gertrude T. Costanzo (nee Zwisler) The collapse How bad was Ohio State's second-half collapse in a 31-26 loss to Purdue Saturday? The Buckeyes, who outrushed the Boilermakers 142-23 in the first half, were held to 59 yards rushing in the second. Ohio State, leading 240-113 in total yards at Intermission, was beaten 206-176 in the last two periods. Out-foxed? Purdue freshman OB Brian Fox was 13-for-17 for 139 yards and two touchdowns in the last two periods as the Boilermakers overcame a 17-7 halftime deficit. Consistent After holding Syracuse to nine points in the season opener, Ohio State's defense has now yielded at least 31 points to each of its last five opponents.

The Frey-lng pan Buckeye QB Greg Frey continues to struggle. He was 10-of-21 for 193 yards but threw two interceptions in the final minutes when Ohio State was attempting to pull out a victory. Frey has now thrown nine interceptions against three touchdowns and is completing only 48 percent of his attempts. Easy does It Buckeye coach John Cooper, extremely harsh in critiques of his team In recent weeks, apparently has pulled in his horns. Cooper ducked all pointed questions about its latest performance.

"It's a bitter disappointment," he said of the loss. "Purdue got shut out (20-0 by Illinois) last week, and today It gets 31 points against us. What can I say?" Where's the line? Defensive statistics say something about Ohio State's defense. The Buckeyes' Pat Mazzagatti Pat Mazzagatti passed away Oct. 16 at her residence following a long illness.

She was born in Akron, and lived here all her life.
