of a 1960 Ag 'AVISHAL NEWS, X'IIVI Cr Conerly Goes to Hospital Today, May Miss Eagles By Gene Ward It looks as though old Sunday. The 39-year-old by twice running the ball to photo-finish triumph so bruised Chuck Conerly may have pitchin' man, who broke all the get position for the winning and beaten he couldn't TO ROM FRED 17 A 207 STATE YALE A Lowe Is High Man (NEWS foto by Seymour Wally) Bob Lowe of Brown (far left) relaxes after capturing 1C4A crosscountry race at Van Cortlandt Park with his three closest pursuers: Larrie Sweet, Alfred, Gerald Young, Michigan State, and Yale's Bill Bachrach. Brown Ace, Penn State Team Cop IC4A Run By Joe O'Day Bobby Lowe of Brown, senior from Ridgefield, N. ended Michigan State's cross-country championship meet at Van Cortlandt Park. The 140-pound sociology major showed the path home to Larry Sweet Alfred in the "exacting" five-mile test over the hilly course.

The time was a course standard of being the first year the race actually measured five miles. MANHATTAN COACH George Eastment, suspicious of the fast clockings in recent years, had surveyed the course and it measured 480 yards short. The Spartans had a lock on the individual title for the past five seasons via two triumphs by Henry Kennedy and three by his brother, Crawford. Michigan State also had captured the team crown for the past four seasons but Penn State ran off with the title yesterday, pursued by Army as the Spartans slipped to third. LOWE, THE RUNNERUP last season and recent Heptagonal winner, paced himself from memory.

Bobby was content to allow Sweet, Pittsburgh's Don Adams and Michigan State's Morgan Ward battle for the early lead. Gerry Norman of Penn State and Michigan State's Gerry Young were leading the bulky field of 250 starters when Lowe took dead-aim at the duo. Quickly moving from fourth place, Lowe grabbed the lead at the call and was never seriously threatened. Still, Sweet, a little heralded senior from Hamburg, N. refused to fold.

Going into Cemetery Hill, Lowe held a 20-yard advantage, while Sweet held off Yale's Bill Bachrach. COMING OUT OF the hills and onto the long flat straight- a smooth-striding 22-year-old and Penn State yesterday five-year domination of the IC4A by winning the 52d annual Hill 'n' Dalers 1.

First it was 30 vards, than 40 and finally an eased up 60. Michigan State's first finisher was Young, who held off a belated challenge by Bachrach to annex third. Another Spartan. Billy Reynolds, finished fifth, but Penn State garnered eighth, ninth and 10th places to secure the team title. The Nittany Lions were Herman Weber.

Norman, last year's frosh winner, and Steve Moorhead. The freshman race unveiled a real standout in Cornell's Misati (Steve) Machooka. The 6 ft. 132- pounder from Nairobi, Kenya, led from start to finish in taking the three-mile test in 15:24.9. A 19-YEAR-OLD economies student and a 4:13 miler, Machooka finished 100 yards ahead of Notre Dame's Frank Carver.

Rocca, Sammartino Draw Bruno Sammartino, Italian hug from which Antonino strongman from Abruzzi, held Antonino Rocca of Brooklyn to a draw in the featured wrestling bout at the Garden last night. The match was halted because of the curfew law after 34 minutes of grappling.

A CROWD OF 12.815 paid $35,693.19 to watch the bouts. Bruno, no match for Rocca in experience, used brute strength to break Rocca's holds although he managed to apply a 'punishing Nuff Said! -By Stark his all for Mara Tech rules of NFL quarterbacking goal, came out of sleep all night. Conerly also suffered a banged knee two plays before Pat Summerall's victory kick. As a result, Dr. Francis Sweeney, club physician, was dubious concerning Chuck's chances of going against the division-leading Eagles in the Stadium on Sunday.

HE HAS ORDERED Conerly to report to St. Elizabeth's Hospital today for an examination of the knee and a thorough physical, and Chuck will have plenty of company. Also ordered in for treatment are offensive tackle Rosy Brown with a bad shoulder, which could be a strain, and linebacker Cliff Livingston, who took a crushing blow on the chest from a cleated Pitt brogan. There are other cripples, tootackle Frank Youso, with a splitto-the-bone finger; guard Darrell Dess, hobbling on double charley horses, and rookie end Bob Simms who re-injured the ankle he hurt against the 49ers in the season's opener. But these minor casualties all are expected to regain combat status by Sunday.

If Doc Sweeney is concerned about Conerly, Mrs. Chuck is downright worried according to what she told those who checked on the state of the health. She said her hubby was hurtin' so he didn't get a wink of sleep; that she hates even to think about him playing in the one coming up. WHETHER OR NOT Conerly re-injured the flipper, which forced him out earlier in the campaign, wasn't known. Sweeney, in fact, only saw Conerly immediately after the game when he put a protective splint on the damaged left knee in the hope it would immobilize the joint and prevent fluid from collecting.

If the worst happens, George Shaw better start warming up in the bullpen. Actually, as the doctor informed the Giant coaching staff, there's no way of telling for another 24 hours just how serious Conerly's condition is. As Sweeney put it, it will take time before he can dignose what is fresh injury and what is just plain battle fatigue in Chuck's ancient gams. ALLIE SHERMAN, the Giant offensive coach, was one of the few who realized Conerly's condition at the windup. "When he came over to the sidelines just before the Summerall kick at the end," Allie said, "he was pale as a ghost and glassy-eyed." By then, of course, the game was in its last minute, but Sherman said he'd have gotten Chuck out of there if he'd realized his condition sooner.

The knee injury was suffered on the second play before the winning kick when Chuck carried the ball into the line. He had run the ball twice -for 12 and 17 yards- just before that, the vital plays which moved pigskin into position for the field' goal. In his summation of the game, head coach Jim Lee Howell said that he and his staff felt the Steelers had gone all-out in their scouting of the Giants against the Browns the Sunday before. "THEY SAW HOW well our inside stuff went in Cleveland." Howell said, "so I figured they'd be waiting for us in there. So we went to the outside with Gifford and Triplett." The boss coach lauded the blocking of Dess and Jack Stroud, the two guards who do a lot of pulling for interference running.

There was one bit of good news to go with the casualty report. Kyle Rote, who fractured a bone in his left hand in Cleveland, may be able to go against the Eagles, after all. I JOE BELLINO BOYS, YOUR WORRIES ARE OVER! AMERICA POLLSTERS Joe Bellino, Navy senior halfback who set an Academy onegame record Saturday when he scored four touchdowns against Virginia, yesterday was named to the Eastern College Athletic Conference All-East team for the second time this season. Bellino also gained 198 yards in 17 tries from scrimmage, ineluding runs of 39 and 90 yards, for an Academy season groundgaining mark of 749 yards. Gotham Bowl: May Take Two Weeks to Fill It By Dana Mozley Since the Gotham Bowl matching the Army-Navy or a power from the South or two more weeks before both augural game will be played at the Stadium, Dec.

10. Any decision by either Army or Navy to play a post-season game must await the outcome of their own classic in Philadelphia a week from Saturday. Wayne Hardin, the Navy coach, made that clear yesterday, as the Cadets had done previously. "OUR PLAYERS have not even discussed the possibility of our playing in a bowl game," he told the Met Football Writers at lunch. "Our season starts at 1 P.

M. Saturday the 26th and ends about 4:30 or 5 P.M. If we don't beat Army, we certainly won't go to any bowl." Bob Ready, Gotham Bowl director, admitted Syracuse was under consideration. But the Orange won't make any bowl decision until after its season finale against Miami next Friday night in thet Orange Bowl. If Syracuse doesn't win this one, it certainly will go nowhere.

"WE'VE BEEN TALKING with a number of schools who have shown a lot of interest," Ready said. "These include Duke, Rice, Alabama, Baylor, Utah State. One team which really wants to come here is New Mexico State. I hear from them almost every (State is still unbeaten.) Hardin said the Army -Navy game shapes up to be as good a one that has ever been played. "Army is a real, strong ball club that has been coming along every week," he pointed out.

"They are a little bit bigger than we are, too. "BUT I'M AWFULLY proud of our boys. At the start of the season, we didn't expect to win more than half our games. We, too, have gotten better every The Navy team spirit has been exceptional. Hardin is convinced his left half, Joe Bellino, is the best back in the country.

He is Bellino, unique in style. He's short and not very heavy, but he has legs like a truck. He'll dodge like a will-0the-wisp or run over you with sheer power. GRID GRIST: Harvard doesn't expect to get much use from its two major knee casualties, quarterback Charley Ravenel and guard captain Terry Lenzner, against Yale on Saturday. The NCAA has issued a strong reminder to all athletic directors of member colleges and universities to rule ineligible immediately any college player who signs a pro contract prematurely.

Shades of Billy Cannon. Though Army's lonely end, Bob Fuellhart, who missed the last two games with a sprained ankle, will be healthy for Navy, he may not start. Paul Zmuida has done so well in his place he may retain No. 1 job. Regular Army tackle Gerry Clements has reinjured same knee on which he had an operation in the spring.

His Navy game status is now very doubtful. The Cadets, fortunately, have a very strong replacement in Bob McCarthy. (had difficulty escaping. Bruno narrowly escaped being pinned near the final bell.
