BURG, Va. The Southern Con. ference title hopes of Furman were smashed into the dusty turf of this William Mary field hero Saturday as the Indians tomahawked the Paladins, 19-6. An even battle for three and a half quarters suddenly turned into a wave of green jerseyed pow. er before a partisan 4,000.

Stocky Stan Penkunas, second team fullback who runs low to the ground, was the hero as he sparked a 7l-yard touchdown tour which took 7 minutes and 10 seconds on the clock. Penkunas ran four times for the final 10 yards, banging over from the one on. fourth down. four and three points, looked like they never knew that the Tar Heels had stopped N.C. State last week.

It became a story of missed opportunities as all Furman drives stalled after the first touchdown in the opening period. "We were not a hard-hitting football team, that's all," King continued. "We didn't have the extra effort, the extra zip you have got to have to be a winning team." King agreed it might have been different if Furman could ever have gotten a second touchdown. They had chances but couldn't go all the way. Coming up next Saturday will be Homecoming, with Howard College the opponent.

From what happened here, the Paladins win be glad to get back home.

"One thing nice bout today, I don't have to explain about the pass defense or the fumbles," Clemson Coach Frank Howard drawled in his dressing room after his Clemson Tigers had downed North Carolina, 27-0 here Saturday. For Howard whose past two weeks had been marred by poor pass defense and many fumbles, said, "We played the same kind of pass defense in this game as we have hi the past two weeks.

We were just reacting a little better today." Howard, still talking about his pass defense, noted that "One thing that made our pass defense look a little better today was our line rushing the passer. That's about the best pass defense you can have." Howard inserted his third unit in the ball game in the first period and explained that this was to give the others a little rest. Continuing he Bakl, "There are gome pretty good players on that third unit but we just haven't given them a chance to play and the only way they'll know what at 6-6 with 9:15 left in the quarter.

But they played good pass defense today." Over on the other side Howard was still talking and taking another dig at Maryland Coach Tom Nugent. "One thing I regret," he said, "is that we made all of our mistakes last week. 1 just wish we could have played this good against Nugent I think Hickey is one of the nicest fellows in the coaching business." Howard had one more thing to say about the Tigers.

"This is probably the finest not the best team I've ever had. They work together, play together good, and will do what you tell them to do. It is a pleasure to coach them." And it was a pleasure and Shaw pulled down Driscoll for a third down loss, forcing a punt. Driscoll got off a beauty. it's all about is to get in there and play.
