Proctor was sent into the game for the clincher. Everyone in Shields-Watkins Stadium knew a pass was corning. As the game-ending horn was gurgling, Proctor on an end run 3umned and struck Monk Fowler in the end zone. The touchdown was scored after the gun went off and the extra point was missed after the game had officially ended. The only department in which the resurgent Vols were of! the beam was on conversions.

They missed all six. Never has the Maroon and told pass defense looked more porous. A steady stream of defensive backs failed to stem the Volunteers. The Eagles drew first blood on a 6-yard touchdown march. They whittled away on short, consistent gains until Jim Beneditto scored on a seven-yard pitchout run.

They looked smart and dominating. A tipoff on the errors to come occurred when Tom Brennan fumbled on a fourth down kick, Tennessee recovering. Tennessee didn't waste the opportunity. It got some juicy breaks when on two incompleted passes, the B. C.

Nov. 15 (AP) The dogged, mud. splashed Northwestern Wildcats. humiliated by five defeats in seven earlier starts, almost made a myth of Notre Dame's football invincibility today, but the desperate Fighting Irish shook off the surprise for a 26 to 19 victory, their seventh in a row. Playing on a soggy in a drizzle, the Wildcats marched 81 yards for one touchdown, turned a-pass interception into another, and then sent a sellout throng of 48,000 to their feet in the last quarttr when third-string Pewee Day filched Frank Tripucka's aerial and pranced 18 yards for a third ma rker.

7 Fumbles for Wildcats Northwestern fumbled the ball seven times, and lost it on four occasions. Two of the bobbles were recovered by the great Notre Dame tackle, George Connor, at opportune times. See NOTRE DAME Page 29 Page 29 OYES Jumbos Wallop Statesmen, 20-6, in Season's Windup By ED SHEA Following a scoreless deadlock at half time, the Crimson' stormed 55 yards to a third period touchdown. This brilliant march was matched by the Bruiners early in the fourth quarter, but Harvard had the superior sock at the finish. Kennie O'Donnell opened the gates for the decisive touchdown by rushing up to intercept Ed Finn's forward on the Crimson's 38.

The die was cast and Harvard began its spectacular victory-producing rally. With time running short Jim Kenary uncorked a pass from well. behind midfield off to the left, and directly into the arms of Harold Moffie. The Brookline speedster receiving on Brown's 35, broke into stride and carried all the way to the six. Two heavily-driven line plays put the ball across.

Lazzaro Scores The touchdown punch was delivered by fullback Paul Lazzaro of B. U. Reaps, 33-6, in Drab Came; Cella Features By CM' KEANE In what amounted to scarcely more. than a scrimmage, Boston University came back after a week's layoff to trim an inept Kings Point eleven, 33-6 at Fen-way Park yesterday. Apparently its followers believed the team was resting for another week as only 1987 were present.

B. IL kept its hocus-pocus stuff very much in mothballs through the day contenting itself with simple off tackle smashes. On the other hand, Kings Point offered an aerial circus, pitching .44 forwards, a couple of which finally set up a touchdown late in the fourth garter. Terriers Score in Three Plays Done ill's men were ahead, 6-0, just three plays after receiving the ball on their own 37. Silvio Cella romped all the way, to the 3 on a burst inside left end.

Don Giles then found the other side equally vulnerable on a cutback through right tackle, moving to the 10 before being hauled down by Ed Michalski. Cella then copied Giles on another smash through right tackle, moving for a touchdown without even being tapped on the shoulder. Another score was soon made, again by Cella, after a march of 45 yards. Capt Giles once again ripped off 17 yards through a cavernous hole in the Kings Point left side after a couple of belts through the middle had been held to five yards. See B.

It wasn't enough.

Columbia's blue-shirted boys came off a springboard in the second half to forge a 10-0 victory in the first football contest ever played between the two. A couple of fellows who abide virtually in the shadows of Holy Cross' dining hall unhorsed the symbolic Crusader after a stern tussle. One was Bill Swiacki, the fabulous pass catcher who lives in Southbridge, Mass, and for. merly attended Holy Cross. The second was Ventan Yablonski, a Worcester citizen and brother of a former Holy Cross Zullback.

Swiacki did not disappoint the 28.000 patrons who recalled his circus catches to defeat Army and made another of his grabs from a flying trapeze for the touchdown. In the third period. Yablonski converted the seventh point, and at the top of the final quarter pounded a field goal over the bar from the 20- yard line.

Chelsea threatened to upset the applecart in the fourth period but was thwarted on the Mustang 10 by the gun ending the game.

15-- Dartmouth's fighting forward wall accounted directly for three Indian touchdowns, this afternoon as the Big Green romped to a 21-13 victory over Cornell before 13,000 shivering spectators. Capitalizing on a blocked kick, a recovered fumble, and an intercepted pass, Dartmouth scored in the first, third and fourth stanzas. The Indians' first score came when Cornell attempted a quick kick from their own 15. Right tackle Dick Gowen crashed into the Big Red backfield to block Dean's boot and the ball rolled back into the end zone where left tackle Jonathan Jenkins fell on it for the touchdown. Carey's conversion was good.
