DANNY CASEY: DANNY Bu Keydets Bomb CASEY: DANNY: series." "Yeah?" "We wuz lucky." "Yeah?" "With all them hits you TilJery guys got, I don't see how you missed." CASEY: "That was a lousy trick you pulled on my fellers." DANNY: "Dunno whachya mean." CASEY: "You. got my boys all tired out hitting long balls and running bases when we didn't really need all them runs and that exercise. You was shut out and we waisted our hits and by the time we got to the big one my fellers was just too tired to work." 1 DANNY: "Sorry, Case.

I did tell my pitchers to get loose when you was leading in some of the games by 10 or 12 to 0. Figured it would work out just like you said your boys would-be pooped if it ran into seven games and you wouldn't be able to swing like usual at the finish." CASEY: "Yep, we beat ourselves. Hit too many singles, doubles, triples and homers at the wrong time. Our fellers just got real tired of hitting and running. We hit too good too early.

But I still think that was a lousy trick you used on us." DANNY: "Sorry you look at it that way, Case no hard feeling, I hope. See you next year? CASEY: "Mebbe. Drop by my office and I'll give you that box of cigars I promised." DANNY: "Thanks, Case. "Still 1 say we wuz lucky." Hope you can be here for the flag-raising. CASE: "Yeah?" i Personally, we would like to make a public retraction of what we said a few days ago about this being a routine series.

Whoever wrote the script for that seventh game put in everything except the appearance of the national guard at the finish and the firing of a 15-gun salute as Bill Mazeroski stood at attention. Yep, the series had its bib hero, Danny's boy Bill. Yep the series Ralph Terry. Cavaliers Handed 22nd Straight Loss by VMI's Mississippi Gambler CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. (AP) --Redoubtable Howard Dyer, only two days out of a bed, offset Virginia's best running attack of the season with a bewildering pass attack Saturday that sent unbeaten VMI racing past the much-abused Cavaliers, 30-16.

It was the 22nd consecutive defeat for Virginia in major college football's longest losing streak, and the 12th straight victory for the Southern Conference champion Keydels.

The Yanks had to fight 4-0 for a few innings and the Bucs had their back to the wall later.

What they said about the Bucs winning the hard way to get the National League pennant stood up in the series. They really love to fight as oblivion is about to set in. The Yanks won the statistics--the Pirates won the title. Credit Duke University with the largest basketball swipe of the year. Even Kentucky border patrols cannot understand how a Duke agent slipped through their lines and signed Jeff Mullins, picked last year as a member of the first unit of the Kentucky All-State High School scored two touchdowns, passed for another and set up VMI's fourth touchdown with his tremendous passing, often under dire difficulties.

Virginia's line rushed him mercilessly but nonetheless he got away 22 tosses and completed 11. Three of the passes went for two-point conversions. The yardage haul gave Dyer, total offense the nation, 938 yards in five games, all of which VMI has won with relative ease. Virginia, cranking up a fine ground game but not getting off a successful pass until the last min- when all by sophomore quarterback Carl Kuhn. Kuhn, a sneaky-fast operative, perplexed VMI greatly in the first half with his tricky handoffs and passes, and scored all of Virginia's points.

Kuhn got off touchdown runs of 10 and 15 yards and ran for two-point conversions after each score.

Vols Spoil Alabama's Unbeafen Mark, 20-7 boot, the Keydets might easily have become Virginia's first football victim since the Cavaliers beat Duke in their second game of 1958.

Twice in the first half, Virginia steamed into the lead, with Kuhn at the controls and Ted Rzem- poluch, Tony Ulehla, and John Barger ripping off long chunks of yardage. The Cavaliers, for instance, went 60 yards with the opening kickoff to move in front 8-0 on Kuhn's 10-yard touchdown run. Later, they led 16-8 on a 69-yard push in the second period climaxed by Kuhn's l-yard dash to the end zone. But VMI struck too quickly for the Cavaliers, moving with slow- footed deliberateness, to keep up the touchdown pace. The first Keydet touchdown saw Dyer get off passes of'17 yards to Stinson Jones, and 16 to Dick Weede before Don Kern scored from a yard 'out to tie the score 'at 8-8.

Then, after Virginia went ahead again, the Keydets whirled 69 yards in just three plays--only one of them a run. Dyer's 40-yard pass to Jones put the ball on the Cavalier 10 and from there the lanky "Mississippi a passed to end Dick Willard for the touchdown that tied the score. Before halftime, Dyer KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP)--Un-' beaten Tennessee quickly converted two first quarter Alabama mistakes into touchdowns Saturday and ousted 'Bama 20-7 from the undefeated ranks. Alabama halfback Ray Abruz- zcse fumbled on the first play of the game, and Tennessee linebacker Jim Cartwright recovered on the visitors' 18.

Five plays later tailback" Bill Majors passed eight yards to wingback-Charles Wyrick for the first of three Tennessee touchdowns, all of which came in a thrill-packed first' half. Cotton Letner made good the first of two conversions. Another Alabama miscue midway the first period gave Tennessee its second touchdown. 'Bama halfback Tommy White, back to kick, fumbled a low pass from center and Vol end Mike Lasorsa grabbed the ball in the air and passed 41 'yards for the score. Early in the second period, Ten nessee marched 57 yards for its third touchdown, reserve tailback Glenn Class plunging three yards for the score.

Alabama, which failed to pick up a first down in the opening got Us wing offense rolling late in the second drove yards for its touchdown. Lauricn Stapp, third string quarterback, kept the Vols off balance with deceptive pitchouts and climaxed the drive--longest of the game with a 13-yard scoring pasi to halfback Leon Fuller. Tommy Brooker converted. passes The victory gave Tennessee record, the only blight being i scoreless tie with Mississippi State. Albama, which was ranked in the nation, is now 2-1-1.

Alabama was handicapped by loss of No. 1 quarterback Pat Trammel), who suffered a knee njury in Alabama's 21-0 victory over Vanderbilt two weeks ago and hasn't recovered. In the final analysis, it was Tennessee's alertness which produced the Vol victory. Tennessee had 14 points on the Scoreboard after eight minutes, 35 seconds of play; and this was too much for Alabama to overcome. Tennessee spent much of the last half fighting off Alabama trjrusts, the deepest of which penetrated to the Vol 15 where quarterback Skelton's passes were knocked down and Tennessee over.

The Vols made only five first downs all in the first half -as a scrappy Alabama line, led by guard Billy Neighbors and tackle Jack Rutledge, turned back all Tennessee thrusts jn the last two periods. Alabama picked up 11 first downs and netted 185 yards rushing to Tennessee's 130. totaling 33 yards had brought VMI to the Virginia one, from where Dyer wrote an end to a 24-point period for the Keydets by scoring from the one.

But the Indians stormed back with the second half kickoff and moved 61 yards to the Tech 6 with fullback H. C. Thaxton picking up 43 yards in just four carries.
