Southern Cal was 4-0-1 and had one of the nation's top running backs in Mike Garrett when the Trojans moved into South Bend, that year.

McKay's club wasn't favored but he felt they had a good chance. The Irish line stopped Garrett cold for three quarters, took a 28-0 lead and then sent the subs in. Notre Dame won the game 28-8 and held the eventual Heisman Trophy winner to his lowest rushing total of the year. Today's game, before a national television audience, is the final one for Notre Dame but USC has a berth in the Rose Bowl with No. 1-rated Ohio State.

McKay has another Heisman Trophy winner this year in O.J. Simpson. Where Garrett was small and shifty, Simpson is big powerful and fast. In 20 games, Simpson has led USC to 19 victories. The only defeat was a 3-0 squeaker to Oregon State last year.

But Southern Cal of late hasn't played overpowering ball. The Trojans beat Stanford 27-24, Washington 14-7, Oregon 20-13, Oregon State 17-13 and UCLA 28-16. But they've won. Meanwhile, Notre Dame is 7-2 and has permitted only 82.3 yards per game on the ground- the fourth best mark in the nation. And the Irish offense has rolled to an average of 511.3 yards per game, second best in the country.

Their two losses came at the hands of Purdue, 37-22, and Michigan State, 21-17. The question before game time was: 'How well can the Irish stop Mr. Speed? Simpson ran for 150 yards and scored three touchdowns as USC won 24-7 last year. At game time, it was pick'em. Red Forces Dwindle to 3 Divisions HOPE (AW STAR, Saturday, November 30, tf'c.

Officials say Soviet strength in Czechoslovakia has dwindled to three divisions, but NATO strat- egists are busy implementing lessons learned from the August invasion. Reduction of the Soviet forces followed an agreement between Czechoslovakia and the Soviet Union in October, legalizing an indefinite Russian presence in the satellite. The Red troops that once ranged throughout the strategic central European country are now based mainly In Bratislava and Prague, U.S. analysts say. Particularly alarming to Western allies at the time of the invasion was the presence of six invasion divisions a short march from the West German frontier.

Despite withdrawal of the main strength, Russian concentrations in East Germany and Poland remain significant, The So. viets have maintained a formidable 20 divisions in East many the past and some of the troops withdrawn from Czechoslovakia have joined them. Although the immediate threat to Western Europe's heartland has eased, North lantic Treaty Organization is beefing up defenses and keeping a closer watch on Soviet tary activity along other pean borders. Strategists are considering eluding several U.S, Green ret units among the two Army brigades and four jet fighter squadrons returning ahead of schedule to Europe early next year.

By MURRAY OLDERMAN Newspaper Enterprise Assn. NEW this the Year of O.J., the end of the first century of collegiate football, John Shinners, too, can be All-American. He was so declared on the 1968 All-American team released today by the Newspaper Enterprise Association. O.J. is, of course, Orenthal James Simpson of the University of Southern California Whose chronicled exploits have projected him, justifiably, as the greatest runner of the first 100 years.

Whether in living color or tawdry black and white, O.J. has regaled and excited millions with his explosive bursts for a team on the verge of its second straight national championship. And O.J. has been named to his second straight All-American berth as a running back. But John Shinners plays offensive guard for a team whose games are never televised and in a stadium which seats 15,000.

In it, Xavier University has been hard-pressed to beat such as Marshall, which has just failed to win a game for the second year in a row. Yet abilities of Shinners, who stands 6-3 and weighs a mobile 250 pounds, are well defined because college football has come a long way from 1889, when Walter Camp picked an All-American team composed of three Harvards, three Yales and five Princetons. "Shinners is a blocking line in himself," testified Coach Frank Lauterbur of Toledo after his team lost to Xavier: On this All-American team is also Joseph Greene, who stands 6-4 and weighs 274 pounds and has been notably marked for attention by every professional scout in the United States. He has played defensive tackle three years for North Texas State University. Yet pro credentials aren't the pre-requisite for this All- American team.

Charlie doesn't rate high on many scouts' charts because they're not attracted to blocking guards who weigh 220 pounds. But for the Tennessee Volunteers, Charlie has, 'in words of Coach Doug Dickey, "provided a wonderful example for our younger he's a great blocker." Jerry Levias is the split end because of what he has done for his team, Southern Methodist, as a pass catcher and Spectacular kick he measures only 5-10 and rates behind Ron Sellers of Florida State and Jini Notre Dame as a prospect. No pro team envisions Chris at 180 pounds, as a running back and they doubt his speed, but on the record he is the greatest ball carrier in Southwest history and a bona fide All-American on achievement. There were difficult choices in several positions. Ohio State has two awesome specimens at the offensive tackles Dave Foley and 6-5 Rufus equal in ability that Coach Woody Hayes refuses to split them out.

The nod went to Foley as a "steadier performer." Southpaw Bobby Douglass of Kansas and Notre Dame's brilliant Terry Hanratty were the standout quarterbacks of the year. A knee operation which removed Terry from the last three games helped settle that issue. Center is generally obscure position on the college grid. Two men had it to themselves this year: Oregon State's John Didion and Oklahoma State's John Kolb. Didion shaded his rival on size.

The name of Leroy Keyes is better known as a multiple offensive threat for Purdue, but, here he's listed as defensive halfback because he's one of the rare birds who plays either way and it's impossible to leave him off an all-star roster. Michigan State's Al Brenner was also a two-way performer, at split end and safety, averaging 55 minutes a game. Nominally, Ron Carpenter is a defensive tackle for North Carolina State, but it's just as easy, for expediency, to envision his 6-6 range at defensive end. Carpenter, defensive tackle David Campbell of Auburn and defensive back Jack Scott of Georgia are the only juniors selected. The All-American repeaters are Keyes, Simpson, defensive end Ted Hendricks of Miami and tight end Ted Kwalick of Penn State.

A referee phones from California concerning a decision he made that afternoon and wants to be assured that he was right.

The official wants to know if he should give each team three points because they had half 3 ball or give the six points to the team with the biggest piece.
