18-7 Sayre Trims Southside for 7th Straight, for the usually air-minded Redskins. Trailing lft-7 and time running out, SHS went allout with passes, second string QB Blane Ward completing four-of-five for 32 yards. The game ended on a Sayre interception, Ciotti picking off a pass on his own 29 and carrying back 48 yards to the By AL MALLETTE SAYRE When you walk into Sayre's Lockhart St. Bowl you're greeted with a banner which reads "We're No. 1." The message might be right for the Twin Tiers, anyway.

Tom McCabe's Redskins Friday night moved a step closer to' that much desired unbeaten, untied football season with a come-from-behind, 15-7, victory over Tom Hurley's battling Southside Green Hornets. Southside was expected to be Sayre's toughest roadblock to that 9-0 campaign. And. Hurley's Hornets went right after the Redskins, scoring the first time they got their hands on the football off a brilliant, 53-yard scamper by Clyde Stroman. Then, as McCabe's clubs have so often done, Sayre shut the door on the Hornets with rugged, alert defensive play which produced five intercepted passes and two recovered fumbles.

Still, it took a crucial penalty, an intercepted pass and a poor SHS punt to set up Sayre's three touchdowns. came on a 42-yard dash by Mike Schweiger, a 24-yard run by Joe Ciotti and a two-yard keeper by quarterback Mike Dinan. The mark of a winner, though, is being able to capitalize on your opponent's ball right to Stroman and the swift Hornet back shot inside Sayre's left end, cut to the right sidelines and simply outran a half dozeri trailing Redskins. Mark Frampton's placement added a seventh point and the Hornets seemed in control. The Hornets marched rather freely throughout the rest of the first half, but mistakes cut off scoring opportunities.

After the kickoff following the SHS touchdown the Hornets quick-charging defense seemed to have Sayre stymied and on a third-and-four from the Sayre 41, the Hornets buried Dinan for a 14-yard loss. But the Hornets were detected offsides and the five-yard penalty gave Sayre its first first down of the game. Two plays later Schweiger hit up the middle, appeared stopped, then broke away and raced 42 yards into the end zone. Schweiger tried to slam over for a two-point conversion but was stopped on the one and SHS still maintained a 7-6 edge. The second quarter Sayre TD was set up by the first of three Mark Hutchinson interceptions.

Hutch picked Mike Kelly's pass out of the air on the Sayre 35 and carried back to the SHS 29 before being tackled. Two plays later Ciotti swung right, broke away from a lirte tackle, cut back to the middle of the field and simply ran past mistakes. Sayre did just that to record its seventh straight victory and 31st in its last 34 football games under McCabe's tutelage. Southside actually didn't perform like an loser. The Hornets held an edge in most of the yardage statistics but they couldn't overcome their own mistakes and the Redskins simply didn't make too many boo boos.

Southside, mixing plays well and running easily to the outside behind good blocking, went 62 yards in five plays the first time it had the football. Quarterback Mike Kelly got a big 16 on a bootleg left and on a third-and-four from the Hornet 47, Kelly shuffled the the SHS secondary for a 24-yard scoring play. Early in the' fourth quarter the Redskins struck again. The Hornets were bottled on their own 26 (SHS only gained a net five yards rushing inthe second half after rolling to139 in the first half) and Mark Bradt went back to punt. Bradt got off a poor punt that traveled only four yards past the line of scrimmage and the Redskins had possession on the SHS 30.

Sayre went the 30 yards in five plays, Dinan scoring on a keeper from the two. The big play, though, was a Dinan to Craig Witmer pass good for 17 yards.

While the names of Jim and Joel Ramich (two of ND's best running backs ever) were being reminisced about in the ND stands during Friday night's Homecoming game, Mike Ramich was leading a Crusader ground attack that ripped through the Horseheads defense and paced the rejuvenated Crusaders to a 28-0 waltz past the injury-riddled Blue Raiders. Ramich capped a 29-yard ND ELMIRA, N.Y. OCT.

Ramich's brothers Jim, a prancing, triple-threat quarterback of the early sixties, and Joel a hard-driving halfback of the glorious mid-sixties and ND's all-time leading ground gainer, were in the crowd of 4,700, but many ex-Crusader stars were. jj NO Ramich 5 run (Dunlavey kick) ND Ramich 66 run (Dunlavey kick) ND Pino 3 run (Dunlavey kick) ND-PiJo 2 run "(Kraft kick) IWIIlteilAeWil illfUMlitwJ CRUSADER DASH Notre Dame's Jim ND's Jack Dunlavey is on the ground in Pizzo (1) tries an end run as Horse" an attempt to Cembrinski (23.) heads' Brad Clark comes up for the tackle.

Then, with 9:11 remaining in the first half, Ramich took a handoff from quarterback Mark Margeson on ND's draw play, darted through a huge hole, quickly cut to the outside and outraced a Horseheads defender for a 66-yard TD gallop. "it was the biggest hole I've ever seen," Ramich said later. "Just great blocking on the line." Except for three consecutive seven-yard bursts (one for a TD) late in last week's Hornell game, Ramich hadn't carried the ball since early in the year. "No, I haven't," said the modest senior, "but I don't care that much about carrying. I'll help the team anyway I can," the three-year defensive standout said.

"Anyway, we have five good backs and nobody's cocky we try to let everybody get their carries." Jim Pizzo and Mike D'Aloisio also got their carries for ND Friday night. Leading 14-0 at intermission, the Crusader defense quickly forced Horseheads to punt and the ND rushers went back to work. Pizzo bolted for eight yards, D'Alosio for six, and Pizzo again for nine and a first down. Then Ramich carried five l-Hrfc iMV 5 v- A Cleveland (8?)

Colbert matched Casper's 66 as the best round of the day, Ferriell had a 68, Mitchell a 69 and Jones a 70.

Then White took over and Boston ran Buffalo off the court, outscoring the Braves 20-1 during the last three minutes of the second period en route to a 65-33 halftime lead.

The fourth period, D'Aloisio raced 26 yards on a draw play while HHS linemen were still chasing the sharp-faking Margeson. Five plays later, Pizzo plunged two yards for a score and frosh Mike Kraft, the heir apparent to Dunlavey's place-kicking job, added the 28th point.

Pizzo, ND's most consistent runner all season, hadn't scored prior to Friday but his 101 yards rushing raised his seasonal total to 476. Ramich accumulated 86 yards and D'Aloisio 65. The Crusader defense, meanwhile superlative all year was in top form again, not allowing the Blue Raiders a sustained drive until late in the game. However, the Horseheads offense, repeatedly bitten by the injury bug, could offer only limited challenges. Kevin Smith and Peter Van Etten did return, but were obviously not at par, although Smith starred defensively.

Smith had 28 yards, but didn't carfy at all in the second half and 46 of Van Etten's 57 yards were on one play. Brad Clark, the Blue Raiders' freshmen whiz at tackle, also did an inspring job for the HHS defenders, plugging holes and making numerous tackles. Notre Dame stiffened after the Blue Raiders began their only serious scoring bid in the fourth period. Offensively for ND, it was their top game in over two years, as the Crusaders amassed 252 yards in total offense. "I knew we'd be tough after the first win," said Ramich, a three-year co-captain.
