In the long winter eve-! nings ahead, Penn State statisti-j cans will have something with1 which to occupy themselves I writing Tom Sherman's name into the school record books. And for whatever consolation it's worth, Pitt coach Dave Hart proved his judgment isn't bad, even if his football team is, when last week he called Sherman "one of the most under rated quarterbacks in the country." The slick senior from Rimere-burg, laid aste the Pitt secondary Saturday a- he threw four touchdown passes and broke passing attack. Neither Hart and State coach Joe Paterno would exactly buy that, however. "When Sherman is on, he's a very much underrated quarterback," Paterno echoed Hart. Paterno didn't want to compare past State teams and team than UCLA the day we1 played them." When Sherman is on target, he's deadly and he was just that as he directed the Lions a pair of touchdowns in each the first three quarters.

His pass prptection was so staunch that Pitt never clobbered him all day, and only once did he have to rush a pass. By the time he retired after three quarters, he had completed 16 of 24 aerials for 209 yards. Chief recipient of his marksmanship was fellow senior Jack Curry, who hauled in seven passes and himself broke three school records. Maybe, it was suggested, it was more a case of a weak Pitt pass defense than a great smashing since grandad's day! the 38-0 spanking of 1912. "Penn State offensively is of An rn.

LOUIS, Nov.

25. The Fly ers continued their mastery over St. Louis with a 2-1 Nation-j al Hockey League victory Saturday night, their third in a row by one goal over the Blues. The Flyers, in second place in the Western Division, moved within one point of the Los Angeles Kings with a strong defensive performance in the scoreless third period. Gary Dornhoefer, in the first period, and Bill Sutherland, in NHL Roundup, Page 4 the second, scored the Philadelphia goals, while Terry Crisp got the lone St.

After getting a '2-0 lead, the Flyers decided they had enough goals and settled down to defensive play, at which they have few peers in the NHL. The Blues had a frustrating evening.

They took 42 shots at the Flyers' eoal and got iust one goal. The Flyers made their pair on 23 attempts. PARENT SPARKLES Bernie Parent did a magnificent job in goal for the Flyers. While many of the St, Louis shots were long ones, designed just to get the puck into the rniladelphia end, there were numerous close-up shots that could easily have gone in ex cept for Parent quickness and agility.

25 (AP). Memphis State dumped North Texas State from the ranks of the unbeaten Saturday with a come-from-behind, 29-20 win over the Missouri Valley Conference champions. The explosion came in the third period when fullback Herb Covington ran 10 yards for a touchdown, Hussel Denoff picked up the first of his two TDs on a four-yard run, and Gary Harte blocked a North Texas punt in the end zone for a safety. Memphis State had spotted North Texas 14 points on the passing of quarterback Steve Ramsey, who threw a 54-yard TD pass to flanker back Ronnie Shanklin and a two-yarder to split end James Russell in the second period.

On a sunny, surprisingly mild late November, afternoon, only 8906 spectators showed up and less than half of those paid' to get in. A special "father-son" promotion enabled a man and any number of younger males to get in for one dollar. A single man had to pay the regular price (four dollars or two dollars). It was difficult to decide whether the gimmick was designed to promote football or a population explosion.

Despite the open-gate policy, the crowd, the excitement. 2 Ivy Records Fall as Penn Bows to Cornell By JOHN DELL Of The Inquirer Staff Penn-Cornell, which used to be the Turkey Classic, was presented as a turkey on another day Saturday at Franklin Field. Cornell scored on a 90-yard run the first time it touched the ball and went on to win, 33-14, after building up leads of 17-0 and 33-7. The announced crowd of 8906, second smallest in the modern history of the traditional 74-game series, didn't even have the pleasure of seeing Bill Cree-den, Penn's quick-throwing quarterback, bow out with another Ivy League record. The senior, returning from a two-week layoff because of a sprained arch, played less than half of his final game and finished 28 yards short of the Ivy League career passing yardage record of 2597 set by Columbia's Archie Roberts in 1962-64.

Cornell got all the records in a game set in motion by Dan Walker's 90-yard touchdown run with a lateral pass from Lloyd Ruth, who had received the game's first punt.

A college football game without a halftime show is like a circus without a clown. Penn's band had marched in New York's Thanksgiving Day parade, yet it didn't march at the Cornell game, pie music was provided by a couple of dozen young men and women dressed in street clothes.

What had happened to The Game was a damn shame. But even if the public didn't seem to care and the band didn't care and the kids who got in for nothing didn't care, this was still The Game for those who were playing in it for the last time. For Bill Creeden and Rick Owens and Wes Scovanner and Cabot Knowl-ton and Denny Blake and all the other seniors, this remained a game with special meaning. A game they would never forget.

Hand-painted red and blue signs were taped on the walls. They said, "We'll miss you, Bill," and "We'll miss you, Wes," and "We'll miss Joe." There was a sign for each senior, all 14 of them. With the exception of two transfer students, these were the survivors from Penn's unbeaten freshman team of 1964, the freshman team that walloped Cornell in its first game. They had gone through a lot, most of these guys, and none had gone through more than Bill Creeden. One of the finest passers the Ivy League has had, his career closely paralleled that of Penn's last outstanding quarterback, George Koval.

Like Koval, Creeden had to spend most of his sophomore year on the bench. And like Koval, he had the bad fortune to wind up playing for a coach other than the one who recruited him. Steve Sebo recruited Koval and won an Ivy championship with him in '1959, but John Stieg-man coached him in 1960. Stiegman recruited Creeden in 1964, but Bob Odell coached him for the next three years. Both Koval and Creeden had great junior years, tough senior years.

Still, George bounced back from an ankle injury, started the last game and fired three touchdown passes to beat Cornell. Now it was Creeden's turn. He had a bad foot, which had kept him out of PCTil 1.000 I 667; I Continued on Page 18, Column ft Yale. 7 0 0 Dartmouth 5 2 0 Cornell 4 2 1 Harvard 4 3 0 Princeton 4 3 0 Penn 2 5 0 Brown 15 1 Columbia 4 0 7 0 .571 .286 I .000 I PRINCETON, N.
