H-4 Honolulu, Oct. 29, 1967 THE SUNDAY STAR-BULLETIN ADVERTISER Wildcats I HOOMALIMALI Red McQueen Sports Editor Emeritus 'i 1 h' '4 "kid -Of', Lr it am arrr" 1 1 ms' 'r 4 Is 'y, hi a I Nebraska Trounces Frogs FORT WORTH (UPI) Nebraska's Cornhuskers converted their only sustained drive into a field goal yesterday, but cashed in on two interceptions and a fumble recovery for three short-order touchdowns to handily defeat Texas Christian 29-0. Frank Patrick, the Buskers' 6-foot 7-inch sophomore quarterback, pitched the Big Eight champions into a quick 13-0 lead in the opening minutes of the game with 5-and-21-yard strikes to Dennis Richantsky and Dick Davis with both being set up by the Nebraska defense. Linebacker Ken Geddes, who had set up the second Nebraska touchdown with his first interception, plucked a flat zone pass out of the hands of TCU's Ross Montgomery and sped 39 untouched yards for a third touchdown in the third period. Bill Bomberger's 23-yard field goal two plays before the end of the half kicked in the other Husker points.

A 46-yard final seconds pass from sub quarterback Al Fierro to reserve fullback Buster Yannon padded the score more and gave Nebraska 3-2 season record against 0-5 for TCU. A crowd of 16,656 fully a sixth of these being red-coated boosters from Nebraska met in sunny 70-degree weather to watch a comedy of errors on both sides with frequent fumbles and interceptions. TCU's defense generally proved a stubborn thorn to Nebraska's offense in the clutch, but Davis, Joe Ordu-na and Ben Gregory piled up a good deal of rushing yardage for scoring territory. George Halas, coach of the Chicago Bears, gives his quarterback Jack Concannon tions during game with Cleveland Browns. The Browns beat the Bears, 24-0.

Purdue Mauls Iowa, IOWA CITY, Iowa (UPI) Do-everything halfback Leroy Keyes scored four touchdowns yesterday while leading Purdue to a 41-22 mauling of Iowa. Keyes scored twice on runs of 81 and three yards and grabbed two touchdown passes from Mike Phipps. He accounted for 265 yards in raining and pass receiving. Purdue fullback Perry Williams kept Iowa from stack Record Season for Ties? Have you noticed the number of ties in the National Football League. There have already been 10 and the season won't be half over until the Packers meet the Cardinals in a Monday night game in St.

Louis. Detroit set the pace with their standoff against the world champion Packers at Green Bay in one of the season's opener. Since then Baltimore, Los Angeles and Washington have appeared in two each, while Atlanta and Minnesota figured in one each. The season's record is 12, set up during the 1964 campaign. On two other occasions, 1960 and '63 season marks rose to 10.

With 56 games still remaining, a new record is inevitable and it may happen this weekend. For instance, two teams fit to be tied, or so it seems, will clash when Baltimore (4-0-2) and Washington (2-2-2) meet in Washington. The Colts played to a 20-20 tie with the Vikings last week after a 24-24 tie with the Rams the week before. The Redskins tied the Rams 28-28 last week, the Falcons 20-20 the week before. The Redskins can go the Colts one better for tough finishes.

Three weeks ago, they lost 17-14 to Dallas on a TD pass with 10 seconds remaining. In their last three games they managed to lose, tie and tie in a total of 1 minute, 16 seconds. Passing Duel Assured Now comes the traditional inter-conference meeting of NFL neighbors, one Baltimore has dominated since 1960 with seven consecutive regular season victories and 15 in a row overall, including pre-season games. The Colts Johnny Unitas is back as No. 1 in the league in passing after 20 completions for 235 yards against the Vikings.

The Redskins' Sonny Jurgensen is tied for second in passing and now has 12 TD passes for the season after throwing four in the tie with the Rams. The Colts still are having tough luck with receivers, and now lose Raymond Berry indefinitely with a dislocated shoulder. The Redskins Charley Taylor has 35 catches and teammate Jerry Smith is only five behind after catching seven for 102 yards and three TD against the Rams. Dallas (5-1) and Philadelphia (3-3) meet in one of the day's top games. The Eagles will be bidding to stay in contention in the Eastern Conference's Capitol Division, which Dallas leads by two games.

In their last three starts, however, the Cowboys have: Beaten Washington on a 36-yard TD pass with 10 seconds left; beaten New Orleans in torrential rain, 14-10, after having stopped the Saints on the Dallas 6 and and beaten Pittsburgh 24-21 on a three-play 77-yard drive capped by Craig Morton's TD pass to Tettis Norman with 24 second left. Dallas expects to have Don Meredith back at QB in place of Morton after two weeks absence with rib injuries. The Eagles have dropped two straight after having been tied with the Cowboys for the Capitol lead. Last week it was 48-14 to St. Louis.

Special Monday Night TV Game The Green Bay Packers, who finally hit their stride in a come-from-behind rout of the New York Giants last Sunday, meets St. Louis in a special Nationally-televised game Monday night in St. Louis. Bart Starr was back at QB for the Packers a two-game absence and generated a 397-yard offense in a 49-21 win over the Giants. The Cardinals' Jim Hart, improving with every game, is expected to engage Starr in what should be a thrilling hurling duel.

Hart threw for 267 yards and four TDs in a 48-14 victory over Philadelphia last week. The Los Angeles Rams (3-1-2), who have lost to the 49ers, and tied the Colts and Redskins in the last three weeks after winning their first three starts of the regular season, still have pennant aspirations and can't afford to make any more slips as they meet the lowly Bears today. If the Bears' ace halfback, Gayle Sayers, is unable to play because of a leg injury, it will be no contest. The redhot S.F. 49ers meet the Detroit Lions today.

The Lions expect their star rookie running back Mell Farr to be back in the lineup after missing one game with a bruised thigh. The Lions went all the way with Karl Sweetan who hit for two late TDs in their 24-3 victory over Atlanta. The 49ers used their balanced attack to defeat the Saints 27-13 last week and also hope to wear down the Lions today. John Brodie completed 20 passes among nine receivers and Ken Willard, John David Crow, Bill Tucker and Doug Cunningham rushed for 136 yards. Fifth running back Gary Lewis only saw limited action before suffering a back mmmm Bears QB Gets ing its against Keyes by ripping off 108 yards in 20 carries.

Williams scored two touchdowns. Iowa quarterback Ed Po-dolak passed for two touchdowns, a four-yarder to Silas McKinnie and a 14-yarder to Al Bream. Tim Sullivan rammed two yards for Iowa's other touchdown, Keyes ripped off 145 yards In 14 carries. He grabbed five passes for 120 more yards, and, in his only fail venue after suffering a 49-0 walloping at Michigan last year, were plagued all day by the option runs of Wolverine quarterback Dennis Brown and the drives of halfback Ron Johnson. But in the end the cool generalship of Wilson, aided by George Kemp's key runs, prevailed.

Minnesota closed the gap to a 15-13 on the second play ning touchdown. It was Jackson, a fleet 170-pound sophomore who set up the winning score with a crucial 17-yard dash to the Ohio State three and two plays later he scored. Illinois jumped into a 10-0 halftime lead only to see it disappear when the Buckeyes roared back in the second half with two touchdowns. Shocks tosses, the first for 18 yards in the opening quarter and the other for 16 yards in the second period.

That gave Ohio State a 13-10 lead. Georgia Kicking specialist Pontius completed Tulane's scoring with a 34-yard field goal in the second quarter. He also kicked two out of three extra points.

Someya, who at 135 was one pound lighter than Elorde, rallied sharply in the seventh and eighth rounds of a generally dull fight to take the decision. There were no knockdowns.

The fight and its lack of any solid punching drew boos from the crowd of 25,000. Elorde took an early lead with some effective infighting, but Someya came back strong with left-right combinations that earned him the decision. After the fight, Elorde said he would delay any decision whether to retire from the ring. "I'd Eke to have more time to think it over," the 30-year-old ex-champ said. Someya said he was surprised by the decision, adding he was "afraid that I might be the victim of a hometown decision." The ictory bolstered Someya's chances for a shot at lightweight champion Carlos Ortiz.

Quarterback Bob Warmack set up the touchdown with a 51-yard aerial to Steve Zabel and a six-yard scamper to the Missouri one.
