Saved by two pass-interference calls and taking advantage of six tries from inside the four-yard line, Ursinus managed to cover 56 yards in 18 plays and kill 9:07 on the clock. Sophomore fullback Lonny Grove toted the ball over from the one-yard line for the score.

"It was frustrating," said dejected losing coach Larry Karas of his team's apparent lack of killer instinct. "They took advantage of our turnovers," he said. Cole finally directed a real scoring drive at the start of the fourth quarter, using Johnson as a workhorse, O. J. Simpson-type back, six times for 43 yards in an 11-play, 79-yard drive.

Cole finished it off with a bullet pass to back Tony Britton, covering 19 yards. The last Widener touchdown was part of the mop-up operation when the subs were in. John Pedicone ran it in from the four two plays after the fumble recovery on the five. "I thought we played well on both sides of the ball," said Manlove. Losers By Lewis Freedman Inqmrclftfill Writer Widener University has been beating up -on its Pennsylvania small-college football neighbors for most of the decade.

Here's the news for the rest ot the 1979 schedule nothing's changed. Yesterday, the Pioneers (2-0) showed that the only things to worry about for them are new frontiers to blaze. On a sloppy, muddy field in Memorial Stadium in Chester. Widener stomped Ursinus, 35-7, an instant replay score of last year. The visiting Bears could manage just 78 yards ia 71 offensive plays.

True to form, the Pioneers took a 14-0 lead after the first quarter, holding an opponent scoreless in the first period for the 11th straight time, or since its December 1977 NCAA Division III championship game. Widener's offense was showered with gifts from the defense. The Pioneers started touchdown drives from the Ursinus 41 (pass interception by Steve Warrington), the 13 (50-yard punt return by Tom Deery), the 16 (fumble recovery by Tony Stefano- 1551? 13 liS 13 14 M.M IB 15 n.M i WHITF UTTf What ensued was one of the strangest drives in the history of football. It seemed Ursinus possessed the ball longer than Germany controlled Europe during World War II. The Bears, at that point led by 5-foot, 5-inch freshman quarterback Fred Ciaverdelli, collected the kick-off that had rolled through the end zone, ran one play to finish out the clock in the first quarter and then muddled from their own 12-yard line as close as the Widener 15.

The 20 plays (including a reprieve on a roughing-the-punter penalty) covered 73 yards and consumed 10:50. And it all ended with a missed 42-yard field goal. "I was tired as hell," said Widener defensive end Tom Estilow, who sacked a variety of Ursinus quarterbacks three times. "And I hate playing in the mud and rain. We were out there for a long time." Even more distressing for Ursinus was Stefanoni's fumble recovery a few moments later, setting up halfback Gary Colfine's five-yard TD run.

So it was 21-0 at the half. Almost unbelievably, in the third quarter the Bears set out on another IK II5H I70U41.M tm mm a I 1114 32 B.w".. I BU PALMYRA, N.J. Rt. Mil Fran trMlf (wutti kwntl) Sam Si4 It Dri-ln I (MM) 114110 I OR 7-7373 III Pmcm Flirt F.E.T.

FT. STOCK COLORS! TREATED LUMBER VUH431 HI VHIW.tfUIIIWII NHm fVakti Wt4 tjltlb Putt Fiatia By Paul Smith Special to The Inquirer PISCATAWAY, N. J. Rutgers football coach Frank Burns said before the season that he got a kick out of Kenpafl Startzell's field goal efforts. Yesterday, Burns got three successful kicks out of Startzell, and they proVedCto be just enough to enable the Scarlet Knights to hold off Buck-nell 16j14.

Rutgers got a touchdown run find 152 yards in rushing from Ted Blackwell before 12,300 fans at Rutgefs1 Stadium. But Burns did not get aick out of his team's "We didn't practice well all week," BurhCSvas saying, reflecting on the week after the Penn State 45-10 massacre. "There wasn't a great deal of enthusiasm. The Penn State game was a Teal tough defeat to take and it hung with us a little too long." Buthe hangover wasn't apparent in the early going as Rutgers took the openiag kickoff and marched 33 yardslto Bucknell's 37 before Startzell kicked a 44-yard field goal. However, the Bisons, whom Burns termed "a tough, veteran ball club," answered with the first of a series of opportunistic plays that had the crowd squirming until the final minutes.

After the Bisons' punter, Conestoga High grad Pat Paro, boomed a 60-yarder over an astonished Duane Cherry's head, the ball dying on the Rutgers three, the Knights were unable to untrack and Lester Johnson fumbled on the second play from scrimmage. McKinley Norris recovered tn the Knights' 11. Bucknell seemingly scored on third and seven when Ken Jenkins sprinted around left end and hit the left pylon on the goal line, but he was Choou From Our Urge Selection!

ni) and the five (fumble recovery by Jeff Schrider). The offense, although caked with mud, hardly had to sweat. "We got the big breaks and we were able capitalize," said Widener Coach Bill Manlove afterward. "In the first half we didn't have the ball that much to get anything consistent going and yet we got three scores on the board. You can't complain about that." Widener scored on its first possession in the Mid-Atlantic Conference game just 2 minutes 41 seconds into it when quarterback Bob Cole fired an strike to halfback Al Minker slanting over the middle.

That followed the interception. Tally number two was notched with 43 seconds remaining in the quarter when halfback Hal Johnson (90 yards for the day) plunged through the middle from the one. That was set up by Deery's darting punt return. At that point it was starting to look like a question of how much. "After we got the two scores quick, we got flat," said Cole, who was four-for-seven passing (or 60 yards and rushed for 34 yards.

ruled out on the one. But on the next play, Jenkins mashed over two Knight defenders to score and Bucknell led, 7-3, something Rutgers quarterback Ed McMi-chael thought wasn't possible. "I don't know what I was thinking," said McMichael, who completed 9 of 15 passes for 82 yards and rushed for 29 more on seven carries. (Burns) wasn't pleased. He's got that look where he stands around, just looking, when we don't practice or play well.

He had that after the game today." McMichael had all kinds of time to throw the ball, but the offense, almost from the start, was out of timing. In fact, the offense was Startzell, who booted two more field goals in the second quarter including a 46-yarder that tied his best at the Garden State Bowl against Arizona State last December. But even Blackwell's seven-yard power run that helped Rutgers build a 16-7 halftime lead couldn't scare the Bisons away. Bucknell, taking advantage of a Norris interception early in the fourth quarter, sprung Ken Jenkins on an inside release and wide-open 28-yard TD reception from quarterback Tim Dunn. Then, after a fruitless Knight series, Dunn had a chance to win it for Bucknell with a 40-yard field goal.

"It shouldn't have come down to admitted Startzell, a Levittown senior. "We usually get long drives and I don't get that many attempts." The Knights caught a break when Dunn's successful 40-yarder was nullified by illegal procedure and he missed a 45-yarder. "If a win, I'll take it," said Burns. But will his team be able to take this week's practice? 14 plays and scored on a two-yard run around the left end 3V4 minutes into the final quarter to clinch the win, for Princeton. The Tigers had gone ahead, 9-0, at 4:14 of the third quarter when Lou Vaccarello booted a 26-yard field goal.

Kemp completed 9 of 23 passes for 99 yards for the Big Green. Eric Cutter had five receptions for 66 yards. Jeff Dufresne led all Dartmouth rushers with 49 yards on nine attempts. For Dartmouth, the shutout was the first at home against an Ivy League opponent since a 32-0 loss to Penn in 1947.
