(AP) -Passing artist Steve Sloan smashed two Joe Namatli pass ing records Saturday and led Alabama to 35-14 football victory over South Carolina. The Crimson Tide senior threw two touchdown passes and set up two others. Sloan also scored Alabama's first touchdown on a two-yard plunge. During the initial drive he set a school season completion record when he hit end Ray Perkins with a nine-yard pass.

It was Sloan's 77th completion and broke the record of 76 set by Namath in 1962. In the fourth quarter, Sloan hurled a 39-yard scoring pass to halfback Dennis Homan and brought his season passing total to 1,227 yards, another school record. South Carolina dominated play in the first half after Alabama drove to its first touchdown. But the Gamecocks were not able to find the scoring range until the third quarter after Alabama had scored another touchdown. Unable to move consistently, South Carolina quarterback Mike Fair took to the air and teamed with end J.

Quarterback Tom Ray found Phil Rogers open for a 53-yard pass play to Maryland's 25 with 30 seconds left in the game in Clemson's last desoerate bid to win. But Ray was smarmed under on his next pass try and the ball bobbled into the arms of Lorie McQueen of Maryland on the 33 to end the Tigers' threat. Clemson had moved to Maryland's 19 earlier in the fourth period on a drive built on Ray's passes to Wayne Bell of IS and 26 yards and Johnny Boyette for 11 on a rare tackle eligible play. The threat came to a flat finish. Jim Addison, holding for an apparent field goal try by Frank Pearce, tried to pass instead, but all revivers were covered gaping right-tackle hole.
