The fourth Tech touchdown came- on a sweep by halfback Stan Flowers after a 15 yard penalty put the ball at the Bull dog two. The Engineers marched 48 yards for that one on four plays and two penalties against Georgia.

Quarterback Toppy Vann opened an air attack for the Engineers late in the game. He hit Flowers on a 33-yard pass play, then passed to end Paul Vickers on a 12-yarder on the Georgia 17. Vann kept for four, then hit Flowers for the touchdown. The capacity crowd of 50,000 saw Georgia in Tech territory only three times once when the Bulldogs reached the 34 in the second quarter and twice after the intermission. The best Bulldog threat went to the Tech 33, thanks to a brilliant 22-yard burst by halfback Gene Littleton in the third period.

An offside penalty and sharp Tech defense stopped it there. The only other Georgia invasion of enemy territory came in the dying minutes, when Littleton went 10 yards to the Tech 47. Ga.

Navy was pushed back to the 16 for clipping on the play and soon gave up the balL But the damage had been done.

Kyasky's out-of-bounds punt on the 4 was countered by some daring Navy aerial maneuvers. With only one first down in the game, until that moment, Navy began to move on a 19-yard pass play from Forrestal to Dick Bur-chett who stepped out of bounds on his 26. On the next play it was Forrestal to John Ruth for 11 and the Middies were out of trouble again. After an exchange, Navy sophomore tackle Bob Reifsnyder fell on an Army fumble at the Cadets 38 but the grudging soldiers yielded only one yard in three tries. However, it was a sign of things to come.

Minutes later, in the fourth period, Bourland fumbled hurrying? a pitchout and Kanuch hugged the ball while the midshipmen in the stands waved their white caps In wild joy. Coupled with its ground work which featured surprisingly deceptive faking on the part of Bourland, Army proved itself well prepared for Navy's end sweeps. In fact, Dagampat did much of his work inside the tackles in his drive for the score, Kvaskv and Dagampat were the stars of the defensive first half. Navy, which hadn't been able to stretch its sea legs on Army soil previously, got the biggest scoring opportunity of the slam-bang scoreless 30 minutes which preceded intermission. Cadet end Art Johnson touched a bouncing punt by Navy captain Earle Smith and Dagampat sub marined the ball for a recovery on the Cadet 20.

Georgia Tech's selection for the Gator Bowl came on the heels of convincing 35-0 triumph over injury-riddled Georgia. The Gator competition will be a rematch of last year's Sugar Bowl when the engineers beat Pitt 7-0. Syracuse, which lost only to Pittsburgh this year, quickly grabbed the Cotton Bowl spot after Navy had turned it down.

A frustrating third period for Clemson saw a clipping penalty, a fumble and a 15-yard loss on a pass try to halt drives deep into urman territory. Clemson took 10 plays to get its first touchdown. Wells gained eight and 14 before taking in a 17-yard screen pass from Bussey. This third-down throw at the IAirman 37 with 13 to go was the key play in the series. Furman's comeback touchdown was geared to the fine quarter-hacking of freshman Bill Baker.

He pulled a delayed rollout that completely fooled Clemson and gained 10 yards to keep the drive fclive at one point, and again work- ed the delay with a pitchcut to Powers for the touchdown on fourth down. Furman's only long gain in the march was a 13-yarder right up the middle by Powers. Clemson moved 91 yards to the Furman one in the second period, only to lose the ball on downs.

To cap things off, Bob Clot-worthy won the men's springboard diving championship for the United States and his teammate, Bill Yorzyk, won the men's 200-meter butterfly event. Clotworthy, Mountainside, N.J., won the men's springboard diving with Don Harper, Palo Alto, Calif, second and Glen Whitten, Lakeland, fourth.

Jack Nelson of Fort Lauderdale, was fourth. The other swimming final was strictly an Australian event.

Over-all, the United States had bagged 28 gold medals to 18 by the Russians. But there isn't much hope of adding many more to that U.S. total outside of the swimming competition.

Swimming and diving is the last of the "blue-ribbon" events in the games. But there are a swarm of fringe sports to be decided, in- cudinz gymnastics, and the kus- sians figure to make the most of it. i The main hope is swimming, and the Yanks gave signs of holding their own against Australia and Japan in today's finals by fin ish ing one-two in the men springboard diving event and adding a fourth to the gold medal in the men's 200-meter butterfuly. Russia almost beat the United States in the last games at Helsinki, jast by sweeping the men's and women's gymnastics. These events have been cut down somewhat here, however, and Japan, Hungary, Czechoslovakia and Sweden may help the American cause by cutting into the Russian medals.
