-Mfc Briles Becomes Baseball Hem Opening up a 2-1 lead in games in their first home start, before a St. Louis record crowd of 54,575 at Busch Stadium, the Cards jumped away to an early lead off loser Gary Bell and never were headed. Briles, a 24-year-old Santa Clara product in his fourth year as a pro, backed up his 14-5 regular season record with a seven hitler. Three times Carl Yastrzem-ski, the Red Sox's fearsome slugger, came up with men on base, three times Briles disposed of the threat by making Yaz bounce into a double play in the fourth and ground out harmlessly to second in the sixth and eighth. Briles finished up the season with nine straight wins after taking Gihson's snot in the starling rotation after the July 15 accident.

LOUIS (AP) Nelson Briles, 'Who portrayed the hero in a college stage production of Damn Yankees three years ago, became a real baseball hero for the first time Saturday when he cooled off Carl Yastrzemski and healed up World Scries tempers. The Cards' hard-throwing right-hander hit Boston's Yastrzemski with a pilch, then erased him three straight tunes in crucial situations as St. Louis hpat Ihe Red Sox 5-2 and took a 2-1 lead in the Series.

Chico State when he portrayed Joe Hardy, the outfielder who led Washington to a pennant victory over the New York Yankees. Briles had to do it all by himself on the mound Saturday, but he certainly stirred up a fuss when he hit Yastrzemski on the left calf in the first inning. Boston Manager Dick Williams immediately rushed from the dugout and complained to plate umpire Frank Umont thai the 24-year-old right-hander had thrown at Yaz deliberately.

Briles denied the accusation. "1 was trying Inst of all to get Ihe ball in on him." Bnlcs said. "Rill I held the hall too tight, and it got away from me. 1 'also got a pitch in on Reggie I Smith. It took a Intie while until il could relax arcl get.

(A FX) Florida Stale, down 9-0 at the half, turned the pattern of a weird football game its way in Ihe second half and sneaked out of Kyle Salium with a 19-18 victory over Texas Saturday night. The victory was the first for the Seminoles this season after losses to Houston and North Carolina State and a 37-37 tie with Alabama.

(AP) -Safety Dicky Thompson recovered three Mississippi fumbles and quarterback Kenny Stabler led Alabama to a 21-7 Southeastern Conference victory over Mississippi Saturday. The conquest before a national television audience and 69,. 821 fans continued Alabama's domination -over the Rebels, who last defeated the Tide in 1910. Stabler threw to speedy Dennis Homan for one score, ran eight yards for another and led the Tide on an 88-yard drive for the final touchdown. Ed Morgan who had picked up most of the yardage on the drive took the last one in from the one.

The Tide defense, uncertain in its first two games, gave indications of maturing as Alabama picked up its second victory against a tie. Mississippi now has won one and lost two. All three of Thompson's fumble recoveries were set up by driving tackles by Tide defenders. Neither team was able lo do much for most of the firt half (CONTINUES ON PA8I It) i i i jmWKvT VX1 UXvf 'aWKSJWW'osStofc -Willi iUTT' Tail ISU TAILBACK GLENN SMITH LK APS FOR FIRST DOWN bull- through Gator defence for seven-yard advance (Pensacola NewvJournal-Ap Wirephotg) 'Bama Cops 21-7 Verdict r-3 Ms u)ti2 mass 11 reJe lit Florida Suffers 1st Loss First downs Rushing yardaqe Passing yardage Return yardage Passes Punts Fumbles lost Yards penalized By BOB RALFE Staff Sports Writer GAINESVILLE (A FN) -Louisiana Stale's Tipm turned man-eaters here Saturday and all but devoured the Florida Gators in a shattering 37-6 victory before dismayed onlookers. The Bayou Bengals emerged as a real darkhorse for the Southeastern Confer-once championship in their first test within the league after wins over Rice and Texas A M.

It was a distressing sight for Gator followers. They had to go back 17 years to find an opponent scoring that many points against Florida. Alabama won 40-13 over the 1950 Gators. The margin of defeat was not only the greatest ever against a Ray Graves-coached Gator team, but the worst since Kentucky ran up a 40-6 score in 1950. Florida just plain got stomped by a fired-up LSU squad which did everything well.

The Tiger offensive and defensive lines completely outplayed the front line Gators, and the overall speed and mobility was far more than Florida pursuit could contain. Nelson Stokley was as good as they said, but LSU also used two other quarterbacks effectively, had fine running tailbacks and receivers, and their defenders tackled effectively. The latter department found the Gators sadly lacking. A 16-0 first half was bad enough, but the Tigers mounted more scores in the second half and only a 29-yard pass from Jack Eckdahl to Larry Smith, in the final six minutes, saved the Gators from a shutout. The statistics spoke out loud.
