Florida's Gators Rack Up 35-0 Win GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP) Jimmy Dubose rambled 80 yards for a touchdown on the game's first play and Larry Brinson added three more scores Saturday as 18th-ranked Florida smashed Vanderbilt 350 in a Southeastern Conference football game. Dubose, who gained 180 yards on 13 carries and sat out about half the game, broke off right guard oh the initial play and scampered the distance untouched to put the Gators ahead after only 19 seconds had elapsed. Brinson scored on runs of one and five yards and caught a lOyard pass from Don Gaffney for another touchdown. Florida, 4-1, scored on three 80-yard drives in the opening half as the Gators captured their third straight SEC victory and moved into a one-game edge over Alabama, which played outside the conference Saturday.

Florida's other touchdown came in the final quarter on a six-yard run by reserve quaterback Jimmy Fisher after Derrick Gaffney, Don's brother, gained 20 yards on a reverse. Vanderbilt, operating with freshman quarterback Mike Wright, had trouble getting untracked offensively throughout the game. The Commodores got within field goal range twice in the first half, but Mark Adams had a 48-yard attempt partially blockeed by Scott Hutchinson and missed a 42-yard attempt. Vanderbilt is now 3-2 for the year, and 0-2 in the conference.

Gators Read Well GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP) The Florida Gators broke out a big offense against Vanderbilt because they've mastered their reading lessons reading opponents' defenses, quarterback Don Gaffney said Saturday after trimming Vanderbilt 35-0.

Fullback Jimmy DuBose and Coach Doug Dickey were in full agreement. "The way our quarterbacks are reading the defenses and executing the wishbone has made a big difference this year," Dickey said. "And when you break the opening play for a touchdown the way we did, that's a big help." DuBose, a 215-pound senior having his biggest year, said Gaffney carried out the fake so well on the opening play that the Vandy defense spread wide and gave him a hole so big nobody could miss it. He rambled 80 yards for the first touchdown and the beginning of 180-yard day. "The reason I'm breaking more of the long ones is the way we have mastered the wishbone option," DuBose said.

"It was my biggest day and I feel great, especially since the team we beat was the one that outplayed us last year. We were ready this time." Gaffney put in a big word for Florida's young offensive line. "We do have an offensive line, contrary to some comments early this season," Gaffney emphasized. Vanderbilt's Barry Burton, tight end and punter, backed up Gaffney's assessment. "Florida has the same depth as Alabama and an offensive hne that is far better," Burton said.

"In fact Florida is the best team we've played this year." Vandy's only other loss was to Alabama 40-7. Coach Fred Pancoast of Vanderbilt said, "Florida controls the line of scrimmage and they were out for vengeance. I felt like telling them I wasn't here last year when Vandy upset them, 24-10." Rattlers Win On Field Goals TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) Gregory Coleman booted his fourth field goal of the' night with 13 seconds left to give Florida a come-from-behind 12-11 football victory Saturday over Alabama State. Coleman's 25-yard kick came after earlier field goals of 43,21 and 47 yards.

(AP) Wayne Latimer kicked a 61- yard field goal midway througgh the final period Saturday as Virginia Tech's CSobblers clipped Florida State's Seminoles 13-10 in an intersectional football game. Latimer, a 5-foot-9, 163-pound senior placekicker, kicked the winning three-pointer from his own 49 with a strong wind at his back. The Seminoles, 1-4, drove to the Tech 11 with just over two, minutes remaining, but quarterback Clyde Walker's hurried throw was caught out of the end zone and Tech took over on downs to end the last Florida State threat. Virginia Tech, trailing 10-3 going into the final period, tied the score with 11:44 left when sophomore speedster Roscoe Coles ran 36 yards for a touchdown and Latimer kicked the extra point. Coles' touchdown was set up when Florida State was penalized 15 yards to its own 39 for interfering with Billy Hardee as he attempted a fair catch on a punt.

Latimer's field goal came two minutes later after Tech had driven to the Seminoles' 44 before running out of steam. The kick just made it through the right side of the uprights to up Tech's record to 3-2. Tech scored first on a 37-yard field goal by Latimer with 6:33 left in the opening quarter. The Seminoles scored on a one-yard touchdown sneak by Walker, Florida State's first touchdown in nine quarters, with 4:12 left in the first half and on a 30-yard field goal by Keith Singletary midway through the third period.

NEWS-HERALD, Panama City.FIa., Sunday, October 12,1975 Page IC Tiant Shuts Out Paces Rally BOSTON (AP) Crafty Luis Tiant baffled Cincinnati's sluggers with a variety of speeds and motions and started Boston's winning six-run rally with his first hit in three years Saturday as the Red Sox trimmed the Reds 6-0 in the opening game of the World Series. Tiant, a pitching patriarch, who, according to the record books will celebrate his 35th birthday next month, was locked in a tense, scoreless pitching duel with young hander Don Gullett until the seventh inning. The veteran right-hander, who finished with a five-hitter, led off the seventh for Boston and surprised the sellout crowd of 35,205 with a single to left field.

Deprived of his bat by the American League's designated hitter rule, Tiant had been to the plate only once since 1972 and was the last guy the Red Sox expected to start a rally for them. Manager Darrell Johnson, playing for a single run, ordered a sacrifice by Dwight Evans. The bunt was fielded by Gullett, who tried to get Tiaiit at second base. But his throw was too late and the Red Sox had men on first and second with no outs. Denny Doyle followed with a single between third base and shortstop and Tiant, no gazelle on the basepaths, stopped at third.

Cincinnati Manager Sparky Anderson, who had seen Gullett squirm off the Red Sox hook all afternoon, decided to stay with the southpaw against Carl Yastrzemski. Yaz, who had made a clutch catch earlier in the game, delivered with a line drive to right field, the runners held, waiting to see if Ken Griffey could catch the ball but it dropped in front of the Cincinnati right fielder and Tiant headed home. The trip wasn't simple. Griffey rifled a throw home that might have forced the pitcher if first baseman Tony Perez had not cut it off. That gave Tiant a break he needed because he missed touching home plate on first pass.

The Cuban born right-hander went back and touched it before the Reds knew what happened and the Red Sox had the game's first run. That finished Gullett. Clay Carroll relieved and walked Carlton Fisk on a 3-2 pitch, forcing in a second run. Now it was Will McEnaney's turn. Anderson called on the left-hander to face rookie sensation Fred Lynn.

For a while the move looked great. Lynn, looking overmatched, struck out. But the Red Sox got to McEnaney after that. Rico Petrocelli, the only man besides Yastrezemski from the Red Sox 1967 American League champions, drilled a single to left field for two more runs, making it 4-0.

Six runs were considerably more than Tiant needed on this cold, overcast day. Changing speeds and motions constantly, Tiant, fierce looking with a Fu-Mancu moustache, breezed through Cincinnati's power-laden lineup. He struck out three and walked two, both intentionally. Tiant has not allowed an earned run in his last 36 innings and was in complete command despite a fourth-inning furor over his controversial move in an attempt to pick off a Cincinnati runner.

(AP) Auburn, frustrated offensively all evening, turned the game around in less than two minutes Saturday night for a 15-9 Southeastern Conference victory over Kentucky. Lightning struck on a 72-yard pass from Clyde Baumgartner to Jeff Gilligan with 6:15 left in the final periba as the Tigers scored' their first victory of the season. On the kickoff following the touchdown, Kentucky's Sonny Collins fumbled and kicker Neil O'Donohue recovered to give Auburn the ball on Kentuckey's 23 and it took only three plays for the Tigers to score.

Kentucky earlier had kicked three field goals from 31, 33 and 46 yards. Kentucky had controlled the game until the final period, having the ball offensively for in the first three periods.

The Atlanta Braves filled their manager's spot Friday by hiring Dave Bristol, who was fired previously in (Tincinnati and Milwaukee. Barring further firings, that left the Milwaukee Brewers, the Montreal Expos, and the Minnesota Twins studying applicants to direct their teams on the field. Among the candidates on haind for the series were Jack McaKeon, fired this year by the Kansas City Royals, and Bill Rigney, former manager of the San Francisco Giants, the Twins and the California Angels.

Gene Mauch, fired by the Expoes, also was waiting in the wings, waiting for the right offer. McKeon was in the same spot and described himself as "ready and waiting." "I've been doing some scouting for San Diego, but naturally I'd love to get back," Rigney said. McKeon and Mauch appear likely candidates for the Minnesota job. McKeon was in the Twins' organization for 15 years. Mauch managed Minneapolis to pair of championships in the American Association in 1958 and 1959 before moving up to the Philadelphia Phillies.

Mauch, however, may be reluctant to take any job unless the price is right. He reportedly has a couple of years left on his Montreal contract and can go fishing while getting paid. A resident of California, he also would like the job with the Los Angeles Dodgers when Walt Alston decides to retire. Alston recently re-signed for 1976. Uclans Edge Indians, 31-21 STANFORD, Calif.
