North Carolina, ranked ninth on talent but first in bandages and X-rays, hobbled into Ryrd Stadium Saturday like a band of M'A'S'll extras. But the makeshift offense that featured third-string quarterback Ethan Morton as the starting tailback combined with a battered and bruised defense to snatch a 17-10 victory from determined Maryland.

The Carolina victory leaves the Tar 1 1 eels 7-1 overall and 3-0 in the Atlantic Coast Conference, and it sets up a confrontation with third-ranked and unbeaten Clem-son next week in Chapel Hill. Each team rallied from behind on the cold, cloudy afternoon, and with 1:26 left to play, it appeared the 32,100 fans had waited all day for a 10-10 tie. It was a game filled with mistakes (150 yards in penalties and 8 turnovers), and Maryland saved the worst for last. Wing-back Mike Lewis, a junior from Rocky Mount, attempted to field a Carolina punt at the Maryland 21 -yard line. The ball slipped through Lewis' fingers, and Carolina freshman Larry James pounced on it at the 20 with 1:20 to play.

It was the second punt Lewis had fumbled away in the fourth quarter, but he had redeemed himself following the first by TALLAHASSEE, FU. (AP) -Tailback Greg Allen set NCAA records for all-purpose yardage and freshman rushing Saturday night, but he might have had an even bigger prize if he'd played the last seven minutes of No. 17 Florida State's 50-31 college football romp over Western Carolina. Alien set the freshman mark by running for 322 yards and the all-purpose record by adding a 95-yard kickoff return for a total of 417 yards. Semlnoles Coach Bobby' Bowden later admitted he "probably made a mistake" by lifting Alien when he was only 34 yards short of the all-time single game rushing record set by Georgia Tech's Eddie Lee Ivory in 1977.

VFor some reason, I didn't feel like it was right and I was probably wrong," Bowden said. "I probably made a "1 don't know, it'd be mighty tempting," Bowden said. "I knew he had to be close to something. I knew he was close, but I didn't know what It was. I asked some people what it was.

We were aware of but I didn't think it would be right to send him back in." "In the first half, I was just trying to settle down," said Allen, who was making only the second start of his college career. "I was getting tired in the first half and I had to settle down. After that. I got a better wind." vi IlldUC II ll-IV Willi 1 HldJ Maryland threw quite a scare into the Tar Heels, however, on a drive that Was in terrupted when Terp quarterback Boomer, i Esiason was carried off the field with ''a' jammed neck.

To give you an idea of what kind of a day it was for Maryland, the Terps blocked Brooks Barwick's 35-yard field goal attempt -in the first quarter, but Maryland's Howard" Eubanks fumbled as he was returning the block, and Stankavage recovered for UNC at the 40.

The Tigers, who will move up to the No. 2 spot in the Associated Press poll following Perm State's 17-14 loss to Miami, travel to ninth-ranked North Carolina Saturday in a contest that is expected to be televised.

Wake Forest drops to 3-6 and 1-4 and is home to Duke Saturday, before closing out the season the following week at Richmond. In the locker room afterwards, Deacon coach Al Groh was asked whether Clemson had intentionally run up the score on his young and injury-riddled defense. "It was our job to stop them, not their job to stop themselves," he said. "I thought they were more than gracious." That's another way of saying that even Clemson's second, third and fourth stringers were superior to Wake Forest's starters. On the Tigers' final possession of the day, Coach Danny Ford had inserted several players who weren't sure about the plays that were being called.

There was some day with seven catches for 161 yards, giving him career receiving yards, a new school The old mark was held by Jerry Butler (2,223 yards), now a pro standout for the Buffalo Bills. Clemson's remaining three TDs came on a 24- yard dash by Jeff McCall, a 10-yard run by Kevin Mack and a seven-yard scamper by Jordan. Kicking specialist Bob Paulllng was 7-for-7 in the extra point department and teammate Lockie Brown was successful on three of five conversion attempts. Surprisingly, Wake Forest didn't play that badly on offense. Quarterback Gary SchofieM completed 20 of 35 passes for 229 yards and two touch- downs a 17-yarder and a five-yarder, both to wide receiver Kenny Duckett Wake's other points came on a one-yard TD run by Derek Cunningham and a 22-yard field goal by Phil Denfield.

It was on defense where Wake Forest had its difficulties. While the Tigers raced up and down Frank Howard Field like they were competing in a track meet, the Deacons were always a step week at the beginning of practice. The Kan- -napolis freshman responded with 94 yards on 24 carries.

One of Greg Allen's touchdowns came on a 95-yard kickoff return in the first quarter that pulled the Seminoles into' a 7-7 tie with the pesky Catamounts. It was the 200th victory for Florida State, now 6-2 on the year, since the former girls' school started playing football in 1947. The victory also was the 50th for Coach Bobby Bowden since he came to FSU five years ago.

West-em Carolina fell to 2-7. Allen also set a new school rushing record, breaking the 202-yard mark he had set only last week against Louisiana State in his first college starting assignment Allen's records overshadowed a 106-yard, two-touchdown performance by his running mate, fullback Michael Whiting, and a 322-yard passing effort by Western Carolina quarterback Ronnie Mixon. Mixon completed 25 of 41 passes, with two interceptions. The Seminoles struggled to a 13-7 half lime lead, but put the game away during a wild second half by outscortng the Catamounts 43-24. The two teams combined for 1,050 yards total offense, 623 by Florida State and 437 by Western Carolina.

Western Carolina opened Ihe game on top with tailback Melvin Dor-' sey scoring on a 1-yard dive. The Catamounts' 7-0 lead lasted only 14 seconds, as Allen took the ensuing kickoff at his own 5-yard line and streaked down the left sideline, sidestepping a final tack-' ler at about the 40 of Western Carolina and then slanting into the right corner of the end zone. Florida State's Mike Rendlna Turn To Page 3B 3 By DOUG MEAD Staff Writer CLEMSON, S.C. As the final seconds of Clemson's record-setting 82-24 victory over Wake Forest ticked off, Ricky Capps was looking for a place to hide. Capps was afraid the Tigers were going to tack on yet another touchdown on this wacky afternoon of college football that saw Clemson accumulate 756 yards total offense, with 536 of those yards coming on the ground as a Memorial Stadium crowd of 61,500 watched in disbelief.

A native of Hendersonville, the 5-7, 150-pound Capps spends his Saturdays dressed in a Tiger costume as the team mascot. One of his duties following each Clemson touchdown is to perform a number of pushups equal to the point total listed on the Tiger side of the scoreboard. Under ordinary circumstances, that's not an overly difficult task. But on this day in Death Valley, it was downright impossible. Thanks to a 35-point second quarter, the Tigers had a whopping 49-14 halftime lead and Capps had already done 196 pushups.

i Clemson tacked on another 20 points in the third quarter, lifting the Tiger advantage to 69-17 and Capps' pushup total to 382. When the Tigers scored again early in the fourth quarter on a three-yard run by reserve run-, ning back Duke Holleman to give Clemson a 76-17 advantage, Capps picked himself up off the ground and came out to go through his pushup routine one more time. At that point, the Wake Forest mascot a student dressed as a Demon Deacon offered to take Capps' place. The Clemson student section roared their approval and Capps stood and watched as the "Deacon" did the required 76 pushups. Capps, who played basketball and ran track at West Henderson, no doubt felt he was done for the day.

But when freshman fullback Craig Crawford took off on a 72-yard scoring jaunt with just 5:40 remaining, it was back to work again. Another 82 pushups brought his final total to 464. "I would have gone out and tried to do some more if we had scored again," said Capps weakly. "I look three years of physical education under Coach (Burney) Drake at West Henderson, but nothing I ever did prepared me for a day like this." The list of offensive stars for the Tigers reads almost like a complete roster. Tailback Cliff Austin scored the game's first two touchdowns on runs of four and three yards, while former Chase High standout Chuck McSwain accounted for three touchdowns on runs of one, 16 and 12 yards.

And wide receiver Perry Tuttle caught a pair of TD passes from quarterback Homer Jordan covering 75 and 25 yards. Tuttle, a native of Winston-Salem, finished the annuls ACC N.C.

(AP) Defensive back Chuck Finney stole a North Carolina Slate pass from tight end Bobby Longmire and raced 55 yards for a touchdown with 38 seconds to play to give South Carolina a 20-12 victory over the Wolfpack Saturday. The Gamecocks were clinging to a 13-12 lead when Finney came up with the interception. The one-point lead came courtesy of another South Carolina defensive back Harry Skipper, who blocked Todd Auten's extra-point try early in the second quarter and slopped a fourth-quarter Wolfpack drive with an interception at the Carolina nine. Finney's interception return for a touchdown was fitting climax in a game that produced 11 turnovers, a blocked punt that was returned for a touchdown and the blocked extra point, which looked like it was going to be the difference in the game. South Carolina took the 13-12 lead late in the third quarter when senior tailback Johnnie Wright capped an 80-yard drive by slithering In from one-yard out after Auten had missed a 21-yard field goal that would have given N.C.
