THE MUNCIE STAR SPORTS SPORTS of field goals for H. A. Pettijohn's Muncie Midgets? Well sir, the years have gone by, as years have a bad habit of and now Petey has two sons who are getting their names in the papers, although basketball players. They are jockeys and one of them, 19- year-old Jack Kurtz, is regarded as one of the brightest prospects to come along in the East in recent years. One writer recently compared him favorably with Tony DeSpirito, who is merely one of the three or four best in the business.

The other son, 22-year-old Bob Kurtz, is riding at Cranwood, and so far has not achieved the recognition earned in a hurry by his brother, who rode his first race only last winter at Sunshine Park, in Florida. Jack, who is 5-1 and rides at 101 pounds, including five pounds of tack, visited with his parents and sister during the past few days at their home at 3903 Larry Ave. He is to leave Muncie for Boston Sunday morning to begin riding at Suffolk Downs. Jack's parents never have seen him ride but plan to do so whenever he operates a little closer to Muncie. That may come sooner than they think, as topnotch jockeys have a habit of showing up in Louisville, on the first Saturday in May.

And young Jack Kurtz looks like a topnotcher. After the Ball Muncie Saddlesmith Red Hot in East By Bob Barnet REMEMBER PETEY KURTZ, the little guy who used to THE MUNCIE YOUNGSTER bracket recently when the wire both ends of a big daily double at Lincoln Downs, Providence, R.I. It really was a dandy, with the combination of Bill's Sun and Silly Minnie returning $1,000.60 on a $2 investment. Only 25 of the $2 tickets were sold, with nobody venturing a $10 ducat. Eastern writers didn't have to be told that young Kurtz was hot.

They had known that for some time, since he had landed in the No. 4 spot in the Narragansett meeting, just ahead the Lincoln Downs meet, even though he was in action at 'Gansett through less than half the meeting. He had 15 winners. He was second among saddlesmiths at Lincoln Downs until he drew a -day suspension for what the stewards termed "careless That took care of the remainder of the meet and he took advantage of the layoff to visit home folks before opening of the Suffolk meeting. As for suspension, Jack explains that his mount drifted over was paying too much attention to Jack finished third but was There was no evidence offered that tactics and the "careless riding" broke into the national publicity services reported that he had ridden against another horse because he a third horse on the other side.

disqualified and a foul claim allowed. he was guilty of deliberate rough verdict was the result. YOUNG KURTZ, who attended Wilson Junior High School and Central High School, hit the road for the thoroughbred tracks soon after his 16th birthday with an uncle, Jimmy Thornburg, who will be remembered by Muncie sports fans. Jimmy, who now trains a string campaigning in Ohio, is the father of Jimmy and Buck Thornburg, both of whom were jockeys. Jimmy one of the best in the nation in his heyday, now lives in California and rode through last season, is in the armed forces.

Jimmy a topnotch amateur boxer. Fucks, Wha, Jimmy Sr. took Jack to Florida last winter and on March 13 he rode his first winner on a recognized track, scoring on Jim's mare Our Peggy. It was hardly Jack's maiden triumph, since he had ridden on Hoosier county fair tracks the previous summer and had a number of winners, including the victor in the featured race in the last running program at our own Delaware County Fair. From Florida the Thornburg outfit moved to Ohio and Jack rode at Ascot, where hadn't a winner; Thistledown, where he had one, and Randall, where bagged another.

His winner at Randall was a beast named Aglare that paid $137 for $2, which is an indication of the kind of horses the kid was getting. Next move was to Narragansett, which is at Pawtucket, R.I., Jack clicked almost immediately. He rode 14 winners in less than two weeks, wound up the meeting with 15, and had three winners on each of three days. The day he got the big double marked his first, appearance at Lincoln Downs and he had another winner that day. He was rolling along with 10 winners and trailed only one boy the race for top Jockey honors when the suspension halted his activity.

CONTRACT on the Muncie apprentice now is held by Abe Livingstone, trainer for the Green Hills Stables, a highly successful eastern outfit, but he is permitted to accept outside mounts when Livingstone does not invoke his first-call privilege. Jack was quite a darling with eastern racing crowds, as is indicated by an experience with a horse called Stepping Merry, whom he rode at 'Gansett. This charger never had been close in seven starts going short, but the stable suddenly shoved him into a long race and hired Kurtz. The crowd promptly bet Stepping Merry down to 3 to 1 and he won by 15 lengths. My friend Dan Scism.

sports editor of the Evansville Courier, will be interested to know that one of Jack's 'Gansett winners was named Sew It Seams. Owned by Murlogg Farm, an Evansville outfit, Sew It Seams was named after Dan's column in the Courier. Young Kurtz was asked if he ever had been involved in racing mishaps. "Well, a horse threw me off in the paddock and smashed my foot when stepped on it. Another one tossed me during a race at Ascot and I got kicked in the head.

No accidents to amount to anything." Don't let that kick in the head make you think Jack Kurtz isn't sharp young feller. He never bet on a horse race in his life!

A crowd of 72,703 saw the winners throw only seven passes, completing four, all by Quarterback Dave Leggett for 64 yards. Indiana, unable to gain consistently through the heavier Buckeye line, took to air 30 times.

Eleven of the tosses were completed for 104 yards, but two were intercepted, one leading to a Buckeye touchdown. The Indiana heartbreaker came in the first drive a of the third quarter. Behind 7-0 after an Ohio 82- yard drive which sent Cassady in for the first touchdown, Indiana had moved 56 yards to Ohio's 11. But Brad Bomba, 214-pound end, muffed a pass in the end zone by Quarterback Florian Helinski and Ohio took over on downs. That was Indiana's closing threat.

(AP Wirephoto). Dame game as Texas Back Pat and set up Dame Iowa Spectacular 14-10 Victor Over Michigan State Gridders Iowa City, Iowa (AP) Eldean Matheson, a junior halfback who carried the ball only four times a year ago for 42 yards, raced 52 Saturday to rally Iowa to a spectacular 14-10 victory over Michigan State's Rose Bowl football champions. With his team behind 10-7 as result of a smashing Michigan State third-quarter drive and only more than six minutes left in the game, Matheson grabbed a punt on his 45 and sped down the west sideline. He was only three yards away from his coveted goal when he was overhauled by Spartan Carl Nystrom. Shocked Michigan State grudgingly gave up only yards in three Iowa thrusts.

But the Spartans couldn't restrain the Iowa line and quarterback Jerry Reichow, on the vital fourth down, went over for the winning points. Third Loss in 5 Years The defeat, only the third for Michigan State in five years, was a loss for new Coach Hugh Daugherty who moved up to the top job when Biggie Munn retired after the 1954 Rose Bowl triumph. Conversely, it was a stimulating victory for Iowa Coach Forest Evashevski, once an assistant with Daugherty under Munn. And it was a flying start toward the Big Ten championship which Michigan State and Illinois are defending as co-champs. A multi-colored, shirtsleeve crowd of 50,000, basking in 80 degree temperature, and millions of viewers watching the nationwide game of the day, saw Iowa rush to a 7-0 halftime lead with complete dominance of the Spartans.

Then they glimpsed Michigan State roar back with typical Spartan bounce in the third quarter Celebrities Golf Lead to Marty Furgol 3 Guglielmi Washington (U.P) -Marty Furgol, a veteran pro who hasn't cashed a winner's, ticket since Saturday 1951, took the a two-stroke lead in third round of the $40,000 Celebrities Golf Tournament with a nineover-par 67-68-69-204 for 54 holes. Furgol, who shared the lead at the halfway mark in the 72-hole battle for golf's second biggest purse with Gene Littler, fired three birdies and suffered one bogey Saturday. The 37-year-old veteran from Lemont, tied for third in last year's Celebrities competition. Littler, a 24-year-old pro from Palm Springs, blew to a fourover-par 75 today which was still good enough to stay fifth in the running for the $75,000 first money. In second place was another dark horse, Bo Wininger of Oklahoma City, with 70-66-70-206.

Tied for third were two other lightly regarded shotmakers, Bud Holscher of Santa Monica, with 67-71-71-209, and Bob Rosburg, San Francisco, with 73-67- 69-209. Then came Littler, then a bunch of the favorites in the 211 and 212 brackets, all apparently out of the running the way Furgol is handling this surprisingly tough Congressional Country Club course. Guglielmi Big Help to Brennan By JERRY LISKA South Bend, (P)- Quarterback Ralph Guglielmi scored two touchdowns and passed to a third as Notre Dame's fighting Irish gave new Coach Terry Brennan a triumphant sendoff 21-0 over the stubborn Texas Longhorns Saturday. Guglielmi also made two great pass interceptions to harass the game Texans, who twice fumbled 80 Moon on a touchdown and a field goal. Taking charge right from the start, Iowa lost a touchdown chance in the first period on halfback Earl Smith's fumble on the four-yard line only to have Smith ramble 32.

yards for a touchdown with minutes gone in the second period. Big Jim Freeman made the first of his two conversions and it was Iowa. 7-0. To the happy Iowans, many of whom have had Rose Bowl dreams since Iowa's fast November Conference finish and the now famous tie with Notre Dame last fall, it looked as if their favorites were "in." They weren't though. The Spar- tans traveled 75 yards in nine plays after the second half kickoff for a touchdown.

Leroy Bolden scored from the 6. Gerry Planutis converted to tie the game and then sent Michigan State ahead, 10-7, on his 20-yard field goal with four minutes left in the period. That 10-7 lead looked as if it would hold up until Matheson took in that punt 45 and dashed into the Spartans' stronghold to ease Iowa's touchdown.

Five netted 90 yards.

Governor (Sonny) Grady, leading collegiate scorer in Indiana last year, scored the first Cardinal touchdown and added three extra points. He tallied from the oneyard line midway of the second and Wally Gartee got the Cardinals another six-pointer in a smash from the eight a few minutes later. Grady kicked both extra points and the score at halftime was 14-0. Goes 84 Yards for TD Ray Nix celebrated the opening of the third period by racing 84 yards for a touchdown, with Grady kicking the extra point, and in the same quarter Dick Hunt slipped a 22-yard pass to end Ernie Butler on the five-yard mark. The Cardinal wingman went on over.

Grady missed this time and the score was 27-0. Millikin, never permitted to threaten until late in the fourth, finally got together a scoring drive against Ball State third-stringers.

First Opener Win in 8 Years It was Purdue's first opening game victory in eight years, and i sophomore-sparked Boilermakers appeared to be the most promising combination of postwar teams. Dawson moved into the Purdue attack after a scoreless first quarter and pitched three of his strikes before halftime. Receivers were end Bob Springer, 10 yards; Rex Brock, 42 yards, and Khoenle, 27 yards. Bill Murakowski, veteran Purdue fullback of last hampered by injuries most season, cut the souri line to shreds in the third quarter and scored from the one after churning runs of 30 and 15 yards.

Please Turn to Page Four, Section Penn State Upsets Illini, 14-12 Champaign, Ill. (U.P.) A big, green team from 1 Penn State handed the University of Illinois a startling 14-12 upset Saturday by smothering the Illini passing attack. Don Bailey, a spring-legged quarterback from Pittsburgh, sparked the Nittany Lion attack and it was his 16-yard dash in the second quarter that setup the second and deciding Penn State touchdown. After Abe Woodson fumbled in his own territory Penn State failed to gain and the ball went over to Illinois. Woodson kicked and on the third play from scrimmage Bailey faked a handoff to Lenny Moore and sprinted 60 yards to the Illinois 22.

First Blood for Illini Moore made four and Bailey on the next play handed to Moore who bolted 18 yards for the score.

With his former coach, retired Frank Leahy watching from a box seat among the 57,594 fans, Brennan uncovered an Irish team that gave all the indications of living up to its No. 1 ranking in the preseason Associated Press poll. Make It 14-0 in Third Notre Dame moved ahead 7-0 in the second period on Guglielmi's 19-yard pass to end Dan Shannon.

The Irish made it 14-0 in the third quarter with a 79-yard march in 10 plays, capped by Guglielmi's one smash. In the final quarter, Guglielmi scored on a three-yard slither around his left end after Notre new fullback find, Don Schaefer rambled 23 yards. Schaefer converted after each touchdown. The game was -not as decisive as the score indicates. The Longhorns struck to Notre Dame's seven in the first four plays of the game.

Here however, Brewer fumbled and Irish tackle Frank Varrichione recovered on Notre Dame's 11. Still in the first quarter, Texas was pressing hard when Guglielmi wrestled a long Brewer pass from Moon on Notre Dame's 21. In the third period, trailing 14-0, but still full of fight, Texas slammed from midfield to Notre Dame's 10. Then Longhorn Soph Fullback Don Maroney slashed up to the Irish five only to fumble and have Notre Dame Guard Ray Lemek recover.

As the game progressed, however, the Irish began to resemble a typical Notre Dame team. Beyond Texas' failure to exploit its first-period chances, the game's turning point probably came early in the second quarter as Guglielmi made the second of his three interceptions. The great Irish senior quarterback carefully measured a toss by Texas Quarterback Dick Miller, captured the ball on Notre Dame's 19 and raced down the sidelines to Notre Dame's 39. It was this break that launched Notre Dame to its first and what proved to be the only touchdown needed. Four plays later, Guglielmi fired to End Shannon in the open and Shannon galloped across unmolested on a 19-yard scoring play.
