Spartans Upset 20-13 by Purdue EAST LANSING, Mich. Mi-Injured, ailing and underrated Purdue pulled a stunning football upset Saturday by knocking off Michigan State, the top rated collegiate team in the nation, by a convincing 20-13 score. The MSU Spartans were a 21 point favorite going into the game and were expected to run all over the bruised Boilermakers who had the added handicap of having some key men missing because of the flu bug. The 18-year-old Ross Fichtner, a green-as-grass sophomore quarterback, had different ideas and directed his Purdue crew to the upset with all the poise of a pro veteran. Purdue Did Same The only thing in recent football history that could compare with this shocker was the time that Purdue did the exact thing here a few years ago.

That, was in 1953, when a Boilermaker team that hadn't won a game, stopped a 28-game Spartan winning streak with a 6-0 triumph. The situation was the same go- Ing into this one. Michigan State had won its first three starts anc Purdue had lost its first three After a scoreless first quarter during which the Big Ten rivals took turns stalling and punting, State showed some of the spark that made it the No. 1 team in the nation. Burly Walt Kowalczyk, the right half dubbed the "sprinting blacksmith," scored a touchdown al on his own in one minute anc four seconds of the second quarter.

Kowalczyk ran. a punt back from his 43 along the sidelines to the Purdue 10 and backed over to score three carries later. Eevn Score Purdue gave the record Spartan Stadium crowd of 64,950 a clue what was going to happen by evening the score before the half ended. Bob Jarus was a one man wrecker for the Boilermakers After a Spartan fumble on their 19 set the stage, Jarus carried five times in succession on run ning plays, bucking over from a yard out on his last try. Fichtner, who never before had started a game, was in for the regular signal-caller, Bob Spoo who saw only limited action be cause of a hand cut.

He lobbec a 43-yard pass to Tom Franck hauser that carried to the fou and then kept handing the ball fullback Mel Dillard, who bruised in from the one on his third try Kenny Mikes added the third Purdue touchdown on a 34-yarc sprint as the third quarter ended Michigan State got back into th scoring column in the final quar ter when quarterback Jim Ninow ski hit a 30-yard payoff end zon pass to Sammy Williams.

Hawks Clear Rough Hurdle in Wisconsin 21-7; Wildcats Next Iowa Mark I A --Leading Gainer 'Well-Drilled Team' Evy Heaps Praise on Wisconsin IOWA CITY Iowa Coach Forest Evashevski had heaps of praise for Wisconsin's Badgers although they went down to a 217 defeat before the undefeated Hawkeyes Saturday.

Following the Big Ten battle lere, Evashevski said, "Coach Milt Bruhn has a well-drilled team much better than any of our previous opponents this year. But," he added, "Iowa got a few reaks which helped a great deal." He. said- he was pleased with he performance of the Hawkeyes, )ut would not single out any individual lowans for special praise 'They all did well," he said. However, Evashevski credited game's turning point to halfback Bill Gravel's interception- in the opening minutes of the fourth quarter.

Evy called the Wisconsin pass ing attack a "good one" and said the Badgers' big ends were hard for the Iowa backs to cope with He said there were no Iowa in juries as far as he knew, and added: "I am mighty glad to get by this one because I knew the Bad gers would give us all we could handle." Bruhn said he was happy with his squad's performance consid ering that six sophomores started He did not want to single out any lowan for praise because "they're such a solid ball club." Praises Karras, Klein Later, however, he said he con sidered Alex Karras and Dick Klein two of the best tackles in the nation. Bruhn said quarter back Randy Duncan's passing performance was "just excellent. Bruhn admitted Iowa's pass in tercephons were costly to the Badgers and added: "Iowa is a better team now than when Wis consin played them last year." Hawkeye halfback Mike Hagler and guard Bob Commings both agreed Wisconsin has one of the toughest teams the Hawks have played this year.

The Hawks beat the Badgers 21-7 here aturday before a record attendance of 58,147 at Iowa's homecoming.

The 14-point margin sounds decisive but it doesn't tell the story of the closeness of the play which produced a lot of thrills with long the football flying all over lot spiced by the lateral pass- ng Badgers and ferocity of de- 'ensive a as each team at imes used 8-man lines. Object of Upset It was a big win. With Michigan State and Minnesota upset victims of Purdue and Illinois, he Hawks now are at the top of the Big Ten standings in a tie with the Ohio State Buckeyes. Next Saturday Iowa is at Northwestern. Iowa will be the favor- te but the Hawks know that they will be the object of an upset.

Iowa puts a 4-0 season's record on the line against the Wildcats. Iowa, after holding a 7-0 half- ime lead over the Badgers, was hrown into a 7-7 deadlock in the third quarter the Hawks came back for two more touchdowns on long plays and spent remainder of the second half to hold Wisconsin in check. Perhaps the closeness of the jame, in which the Badgers suffered their first loss in four starts, could be reflected in the statistics. In total yards gained, Iowa held only a slight margin, 330-314. Wisconsin outdowned Iowa 19-17 and showed a passing attack i 13 completions in 20 attempts.

It could be noted that Badgers punted only once in the game. But helping Iowa to its victory were four pass interceptions, two by halfback Mike Hagler near the goal line, one on a deflected pass by Frank Bloomquist a another by halfback Bill Gravel. ALEX KARRAS --Great in Line Locked the Gate It was Gravel's interception which locked the gate against the Badgers. Early in the fourth quarter he raced in at full speed to grab an aerial on the Badger 44-yard line and he sped down the west sidelines to score with Bob Prescott kicking the conversion for the final 21-7 count. Iowa scored in the first period after a Hagler interception and went 75 yards in 15 plays for a TD.

Randy Duncan connected on three passes in the drive and he took a lateral for an 11-yard gain to the 4-yard line. Hagler lost three yards but then skirted left end on the next play to score and Prescott kicked the point. A Wisconsin drive in the second period fizzled out on the Iowa 28 and later in the quarter the Hawks drove to the Badger 12- yard line where Geno Sessi fumbled. The Badgers went to the Iowa 27 but Hagler intercepted a pass to gain control on the 11- yard stripe. Blocked Punt Wisconsin after the second half kickoff on the Iowa 32 and John Nocera went back to punt.

A swarm of Badger linemen stormed through with three p'ayers on top of Nocera as his punt was blocked, credit going to tackle. Jim Ileinecke. The ball flew backwards and sideways near the goal line. As two Badgers fell on the ball it slipped into the end zone and John Hobbs recovered for a TD. He kicked the point to tie the game 7-7.

The recovery was quick. Wisconsin kicked off again and Iowa moved 76 yards in juSt six plays to score, two big ground gainers coming on Duncan passes to Gravel and Jim Gibbons, the latter putting the ball on the Badger 35-yard stripe. Spectacular Play came spectacular play of the game.

Their return will be televised by Dumont at 9:30 p.m. looked like the impossible but he kept churning, at one time with two defenders on his back, and finally spurted into the end zone standing up. Iowa had another threat in the quarter when Horn raced 14 yards to the Badger 3-yard stripe.

But there was a penalty to set the ball back to the 22 and Iowa got another blow on an in- tentional grounding to kill the threat. After Gravel's TD interception in the fourth, Wisconsin nyjved to the Iowa 16-yard line before losing the ball on downs. Still later the Badgers went to the Iowa 12 where Bloomquist intercepted tripped pass and the Hawks then ran out the clock. Two Flashy Backs The Badgers were advertised as having two flashy backs, quarterback Sid Williams and halfback Dan Lewis. They lived up to their billing.

Each showed fine running and Williams completed eight of 13 passes, three of them coming he was about downed by tacklers who already had made contact. In the 1 i tackle Don Lanphear and guard Jerry Stalcup were standouts with Stalcup on three occasions slipping through to throw Iowa ball carriers for sizable losses. Hagler picked up 71 of Iowa's yards and was the most effective runner. The Hawks used only 19 players in the game with Gibbons, Alex Karras and Bloomquist going the distance on the left side of the Iowa line. Karras, an Ail-American last again was the standout lineman on the field.

Williams often took off to run the ends only to pitch laterals to runners beyond him. Some sputtered but it did serve to keep the Hawks alert because there was always the Wisconsin threat of going the distance. Honey Signs 1-Year Pact MILWAUKEE UR--Fred Haney Saturday signed a new one-year contract to manage the world champion Milwaukee Braves in 1958 for an estimated -his highest salary in 34 years in baseball.

Illini Explode for34-14Win Over Gophers CHAMPAIGN, 111. The slithering running of halfback Bob Mitchell, hospitalized earlier in the week with a temperature, touched off an Illinois homecoming explosion Saturday that blew apart the nation's fourth-ranking team 34-13. While 69,619 fans cheered the two touchdown underdog Illini and millions of others watched on the national TV hookup, Coach Ray Eliot's upset-minded team, deluged the Gophers 21-0 by halftime, and maintained the pressure to hand them first defeat in four starts. In gaining its second triumph, in four games, Illinois duplicated its homecoming ambush of last year when it trimmed Michigan State, then the nation's No. 1 team, 20-13, in one of the season's aiggest surprises.

Mitchell Stars Mitchell, a 180-pound senior from Hot Springs, who won ali-Big Ten honors as a sophomore and was hobbled with injuries in 1956, time and again split the big Minnesota defenses with his eel-like runs. And while the Gophers were trying to contend with Mitchell's lipperiness, a 205-pound junior halfback from Chicago, Jack Delveaux, riddled them down the middle and quarterback Tom Haller, a junior from Lockport, harassed them with passes. Delveaux scored twice in the first quarter. He ran back a punt 30 yards midway in the period to! fuse an 83-yard touchdown drive in 12 plays. Haller's jump pass of 10 yards to Bob Delaney set up Delveaux's eventual 1-yard scoring blast.

Another Score Four minutes later, Mitchell recovered halfback Bill Martin's fumble on the Gopher 28. Mitchell wormed his way 18 yards on the next play. Then Delveaux drilled over from the 10. At the outset of the second quarter, Mitchell's 1-yard touchdown smash ended a 53-yard Illini thrust in 9 plays. Mitchell's mercurial scampers of 16 and 9 yards set the props.

The Illini kept it up in the third quarter, scoring again in the first seven minutes on a 69-yard frolic in 14 downs that included 4 Haller aerials good for 62 yards. Haller's 23-yard pitch to Capt. Dale Smith made way for Smith's final 2-yard touchdown plunge. Sensational Pass Play Five minutes later, the Illini scored again on the game's most sensational pass play. A poor 18- yard punt by the Gophers set Illinois in motion on the Minnesota 47.

Mitchell's running carried to the 21, but a holding infraction set the lilini back. Then Haller found end Ron Hill on the clear near the sidelines. He rifled the ball to Hill on the 5. Hill juggled it momentarily, then lugged it over the goal line. Against second and third stringers, Minnesota struck through the air for two touchdowns in the last quarter.

Bobby Cox passed 16 yards to Dave Lindblom for the first TD. Then, third string quarterback Jim Reese, hit Jerry Friend with a 14-yard scoring toss.

By JACK DONOVAN AMES Wi--Three Missouri full- acks alternately slashed the owa State line in viscious bursts aturday and brought the Tigers a hard-earned 35-13 i Eight onference football victory. The Tigers, in their conference opener, moved 52, 53 and 11 yards or touchdowns on the legs of ullbacks a ered undermanned and inept Indiana under an eight-touchdown barrage Saturday as they racked up their second straight Western Conference victory, 56-0.

The ground-eating Ohioans converted four fumbles into touchdowns and intercepted five Hoosier passes to squelch all Indiana's scoring attempts. The score was the largest turned in by a Woody Hayes coached team in his seven years here. And it was reminiscent of the "shut the gates of mercy" regime of the late Francis W.

State os Next Foe in Key Tilt By ED CORRIGAN The Associated Press Illinois jumps right from the frying pan into the fire this wee! and Coach Ray Eliot and his bane of Illini know right where they'r (leading. They skipped out of the fryinj pan Saturday when they upse Minnesota 34-13. This Saturday, they hit the fir against Michigan State, the bad! mangled giant of the Big Ten. The Spartans, No. 1 team in th country in last week's Associatei Press poll, were trampled by flu ridden Purdue 20-13 in the bigges upset of the season so far.

"Out to Get Us" Michigan State will be really ouc to get us now," Eliot said Monday. "And to make matters worse, it's their homecoming." The Purdue defeat could cause Michigan State to lose a Rose Bowl bid. Ohio State and Iowa, the defending champion, still are undefeated in conference play. On the other side of the Rose Bowl, the Pacific Coast Conference, things are just as misty. Washington State could have neatly wrapped it up Saturday by beating Oregon.

But Oregon won the game 14-13 when State quarterback Bobby Newman missed the extra point after the Cougars' second touchdown. Two Key Games State already had licked California arid Stanford, the other Rose Bowl eligibles. But State can still make it. Everything hinges on how does against California this week and Stanford Nov. 2.

In the Southwest Conference, there doesn't seem to be a team capable of blocking Texas AM's surge to another title, although at the moment, the Aggies are tied with Texas and Rice for the lead. The Aggies received an unexpected lift from Texas Saturday when the Longhorns, a weak sister in the loop last year, upended Arkansas 17-0. The Aggies had no easy pickings, either, escaping with a 7-0 decision over Texas Christian. Three of Missouri's touchdowns on plunges of a yard, i Quarterback Phil Snowden get-' ing a pair. Kuhlman got the ther.

Until Snowden found Charles ames unprotected in the end late the fourth quarter and lit the halfback with a pass, Iowa State always was in the game. i Nichols, sophomore halfback, brought Iowa State a 7-7 halftime tie on a one-yard run. Hie Cyclones moved 58 yards in 10 plays after Jim Lary, with only one defender between him and a 90 a touchdown, got back 42 yards with Missouri's after its first score. Dominated Game Ignited by the off tackle slants of the three fullbacks, Missouri assumed control of the game in the second quarter and dominated it the rest of the way. Henger sparked a 61-yard drive ended abruptly when Gale Gibson covered Snowden's fumble on the Iowa State 12.

Then the Tigers forced a punt and moved 52 yards for their initial touchdown. McCoy a sophomore, and Kuhlman, a junior like Henger, carried the ball eight times in the 11-play series. yards to the Iowa State 10 and two plays later Snowden passed to James for the touchdown. The Cyclones narrowed Missouri's lead to 21-13 in the fourth period when Jack Falter recovered Kuhlman's fumble in the end zone. Iowa Missed on Drives State missed on two touchdown drives in the first period.

The Cyclones moved 52 yards the first time they had the ball but a field goal attempt by Lylc Carlson from the Hissouri 17 was wide. James cut off another march a few minutes later by intercepting Nichols' pass on the 16. A crowd of 16,000 watched Missouri win its first game against Iowa State at Ames since 1949.

The Sooners, ranked No. 2 in the nation's football picture, ran up 477 yards rushing in winning their second conference game of the season. It was their 61st contest without a loss in loop play. that had been expected to settle championship. It was a stirring, surprising finish to what had started out as a grind-it-out struggle with Pitt dominating the first half.

Army scored once in the third quarter, strictly on slashes hrough the line, to take a 13-6 lead. Then Dawkins a junior from Royal Oak, who started out as a quarterback, got loose to take a 32-yard scoring pass from Dave Bourland and to set up a field goal by Maurice Hilliard with a 54 yard run. Those two plays broke up tha ball game, but before it was over, Pitt scored again on a long from Ivan Toncic to Dick Haley and gave away another to Army.
