(AP) Versatile Virginia Tech com bined a breakaway offense led by Tommy Stafford with an alert defense Saturday and scored a 49-0 football victory over out manned George Washington.

The other Tech touchdown provided the best of many fine moments for the partisan crowd In Lane Stadium. It came late in the first quarter when Frank Loria grabbed a GW punt on his and zig-zagged 80 yards to the end zone, eluding the last Colonial tackier on the GW 40. The Techmen pushed over dree touchdowns in the second period, each of them fet up by wide-awake defense. Defensive end George Fous- standout all day, helped pave the way for two of the touchdowns by blocking a GW punt and recovering a fumble.

The third score of big sec ond quarter was set up by line backer Sal Garcia, who Inter- cepted a GW pass at the Coloni- al 21 and returned to the 9. British-born kicking specialist John Utin also starred for the Techmen, converting after five of the six touchdowns and boot- ing last-period field goals of 31 and 40 yards that closed out the scoring. George Washington, now a loser in two starts, made its penetration in the second quar- ter, when the Colonials reached eT Tech 26. But there the drive stalled when sophomore quarter- back John Grosso fumbled and Calabrese, used sparingly a tailback Jake Devonshire domi nated the Blue Devils offense broke from the grasp of severa would-be tacklen to complete a 56-yard drive. That was the only touchdown Duke's offense could manag against Pitt, which last wee yielded 57 points to UCLA.

Th Blue Devils first score came a 49-yard punt return by Andj Beath. Duke, now 2-0, had to battl against their own mistakes an an aggressive Pitt defense which recovered two fumble inside its own. 30 and intercepte a pass in the end zone, all in the first half. Pitt, which scrimmaged three times in practice this week in an attempt "toughen up," took a 7-0 lead in the first quarte on a 72-yard march from thi opening kickoff. Mike Raklewicz bulled over from the two on the 14th pla 1 for the Panthers score.

Duke's first two offenses were thwarted by fumbles that were forced by the gang-tackling Pan thers. Bob Dyer recovered the firs for Pitt at its own 29 and Pau Jillian recovered one at the five 3'ust before the end of the quarter. Pitt was attempting to play safe by punting on third down but Beath fielded the low kick at the Panther's 49, cut to his right and headed up the sideline for Duke's first touchdown. Duke's winning drive started on its 44 following an exchange of punts in the.third period Sub quarterback Todd Orvald com- pleted a key third down pass to Henry Carter and ran seven yards on another big third down to set up'the touchdown may have been a costly one for the Blue Devils tar Barter! The Colonials never after that could move the ball with any consistency, getting past mid- field only twice in the under the pressure Tech's rugged defenders.
