(Photo by Toy Garris) By WAYNE THOMPSON LITTLE ROCK, Oct. 25 Playing perhaps their greatest game of the season, the Ole Miss Rebels stayed on the undefeated list by rolling to a 34-7 victory over the Arkansas Razorbacks in the War Memorial Stadium here Saturday afternoon. With 28,000 too partisan fans basking in the warm sun. the Reb els proceeded to hand the Porkers their worse defeat in this long and colorful series that now stands at seven Ole Miss wins against nine for the Arkansas eleven. Displaying a great running game and the best passing they have demonstrated all season, the Rebels, pushed over double touchdowns in the first and fourth quarters apd a singleton in the second to get their working margin.

Quarterback Jimmy Lear, of the Rebels, an All American again here today, led the first half assault while the second half, except for a single series of plays, it was freshman Tommy Spiers of Osceola, Arkansas. Taking nothing away from Lear, Spiers was great here today showing Ole Miss fans that they had another great quarterback for three more seasons. Spiers passed for one touchdown and ran for another in sparking the fourth quarter spurt. Arkansas, which hadn't been defeated in a real and completed War Memorial Stadium here in Little Rock since 1950, took advantage of an Ole Miss fumble early in the game to take a 7-0 lead. It was quarterback Lamar McHan eolns over from inches out to climax- a 34-yard drive following the recov ery of a Bags Brenner fumble.

Carl Mazza converted, but, going after their fourth victory to go with their two ties, the Rebels struck back with a vengence and soon held a 14-7 lead. The first touchdown came on a 11 yard pass from Lear to Ray Howell to climax a 28-yard drive after James Mask recovered a fumble by Arkansas Johnny Cole at that point. The second came after a 70-yard drive following a fourth down gamble by Arkansas that failed on the Rebel 30-yard line. Bags Brenner made a 41-yard gain for the spark of the drive that saw Dick Wester- man go over from the four. -Lear, who kicked the first four conversions, did it again.

Jimmy Matthews attempted the final point and failed. A 51-yard drive in the second peijod got the third Ole Miss TD with Dillard going over from three yards out after a screen pass to westerman set-up the score. Held scoreless all through the third period, the Rebs came back in the fourth for two more as Spiers climaxed a 72-yard drive by going over from 10-yards out and after Richard Weiss recovered a St. Pierre fumble at the Arkansas six, passing to Jim Bridges for the final touchdown of the game. It was strictly all Ole Miss here Saturday afternoon as the Rebels warmed up for next Saturday's homecoming encounter with the LSU Bengals of Baton Rouge.

And fans saw a game here today and will see the Rebs in other maneuvers this coming Saturday. Under perfect skies, on a typical and pleasant Indian summer day the Ole Miss Rebels started right by. winning the toss and re ceiving from the north end of the field. But, the sun that was shining so brightly it wasn't of the Rebel variety as it turned out. Paslay returned the kickoff 11-yards and in two plays Dillard and Brenner had moved to the 32 just short of a first down but Brenner got those yards the next time only to fumble as Arkansas got the first break of the game.

Brooks recovered for the Razor-backs and things started happening in the direction of the Ole Miss goal. An aerial from McHan to Perry got 10 yards as McHan broke away from a part or Reb deiend- ers to get the ball away. Sutton went to the 22, Elton to the 20 and Sutton, in a pair of plays, had a first down on the 11. Elton got one before Carpenter, on a tricky pitch out, raced all the way tj the Ole Miss six-inch line before he was stopped. McHan drove over on the next play, Mazza converted and the Porkers led 7-0 early In the first period.

Rebs Get Break But, fighting back to retain their undefeated record were the Mis-sissippians. Westerman returned the kickoff to the 33 but the Arkansas team was too tough land three plays later, including an incomplete pass, Lear was forced to punt. Cook took the 55-yard kick and after a short return he fum bled. Marvin Trautt. ever alert, re covered for Ole Mis3 and the Rebels moved quickly and surely.

Dillard gofeight, Brenner eight more and then umard went to tne n. Here, after some brilliant faking, Lear spotted Ray Howell in the clear in the end zone and passed beautifully for a touchdown. Lear then converted to knot the count 7-7. The Razorbacks fought back and almost went all the way, but just almost. Elton, Sutton and Carpenter got a first down on the Arkansas 38 and after two no-gain plays McHan passed to Troxell all the way to the Reb 36.

Troxel, having over ran the ball, backed up on a buttonhook to take the ball. But that was as far as they went, officially, as Ole Miss took over. Rebs March Again it was the Rebs on the offense and the great Red and Blue team moved sensationally. getting a touchdown In seven plays.
