Mike Charron then made his second try on the wet after noon at a field goal, putting tne ball squarely through the uprights from the 14 to give State the 3-0 margin with 10 minutes left in the half. footing, converted split end Ricky Lanier making some fine catches and top runner Don Mc-Cauley getting off some good runs, Carolina knocked on pay-dirt several times but could only manage a field goal from the 18 by veteran kicker Don' Hartig with two minutes to play. Even at this point, UNC didn't give up as Bill Brafford recovered the short kickoff at the 50 to give his mates a last chance.

However, Swofford couldn't cope with the big State rush and slippery turf to get his, boys moving again. State's defense got position both times, for the first field goal by Mike Charron from the 14 early in the second quarter and the touchdown in the final period by quarterback Darrell Moody. A pass interception by veteran safety Jack Whitley which put the ball on the UNC 37 set up the first successful drive to the field goal. Yount put Carolina in a hole at their 16 with a booming 45 yard plus punt, which was his average for the day, and then grabbed Carolina's return kick a few plays later and dashed through the middle of the Carolina team to the 11 to pave the way for the led by spectacular safetyman and punter Gary Yount which meant a 10-3 victory for the Raleigh club. i However, Carolina had much to cheer about, as the Tar Heels staged a great comeback during the final 10 minutes after falling behind 10-0.

Char ron added the extra point to make it 10-0.

Although Bowers, was the biggest gainer of the day with 102 yards in 29 carries, it was the big State line on defense which was most consistent dur ing the wet afternoon and de fensive end Jerry Miller, the 202-pound junior from A. C. Reynolds along with Ron Carpenter, the veteran All-America candidate at tackle were the ringleaders. Time after time they trapped Swofford far be hind the Hne and limited UNC to 54 yards rushing. Swottords attempt to pass back to his right with the wet ball gave State its opportunity for the field goal soon after the second quarter had opened.

UNC had been unable to gain enough on the ground for a first down up until this point and was back on its 36 with 15 to go for a first. Safetyman Jack Whitley actually grabbed the ball in the flat and only a good eiiort by UNC tight end Tony Blanchard prevented him from going for a touchdown. He took the ball on the UNC 42 and got back to the 37 when dragged down from behind by Blanchard. The top Wolfpack runners, Charlie Bowers and Leon Mason found good holes to move the ball to the 10 and Wayne Lewis caught a diving pass from Darrell Moody at the three.

Coach Gaskell charged onto the field, the officials told him to leave, then stepped off 15 yards against his team.

The oi hcials told him to leave again, he refused, and it cost him 15 more yards. Then, with the ball at the Eagles' 39, Gaskell did leave and the officials told him to leave the playing field. He watched the remainder of the game from the bleachers. The victory also initiated the new athletic regime here and athletic director Wally Williams commented afterward: "A few like that could get you right here." He thumped himself on Hie chest. "But the best thing is," he added, "we won." Dalton's great 93-yard touch down pass to Smith set a school record.

The previous longest pass for WCU was a 90-yard bomb that Jimmy Williams threw to Roger Cox against Carson-Newman in 1965. Dalton threw 22 times, com pleting only nine the field was wet after a two-day rain that quit Saturday afternoon but the nine completions totaled 301 yards.

Previous' ly, he shared the record with quarterbacks Jim Williams and Bob Cooper. Late By BOB TERRELL CULLOWHEE Western Carolina University put on one of the greatest rallies of its football history in the second half Saturday night to initiate Bob Waters' coaching career here with a 20-17 victory over Carson-Newman College. Quarterback Don Dalton, who had three passes intercepted by the Eagles in the first half, threw like the professional quarterback that his coach use to be to trigger the Catamounts to three second half touchdowns and a fine victory before a crowd of about 5,500. Included in Western's rallying performance was a 93-yard touchdown bomb from Dalton to Paul Smith, a five-foot-six, 154-pound junior halfback that gave the Catamounts the zip they needed to carry on through. At the final whistle, the Catamounts hoisted coach Waters to 'their shoulders and carried him onto the field.

The ending was sad for Carson-Newman coach Ritchie Gaskell in more ways than one. His team not only lost the game after leading on three different occasions, but coach Gaskell was also thrown off the field for jawing with the of ficials over a pass interception that all but killed the Eagles late in the game. There were three minutes to play and Carson-Newman trailed 20-17, but the Eagles had the ball 63 yards from the goal line with time enough lett to score Quarterback Butch Genoble, an -4 Ik tfe. 1 iW COLUMBIA, S.C.
