Kaminski had won the '66 game with a pair of booming 44-yard field goals, but Saturday was not his day. In the first quarter he had faded one to the right of the posts from the 26 another fronv.

the 28 and late in the second period he was to blow one from the 11. After the third miss for a 9 to 0 lead, Holy Cross was destined to play 41 consecutive minutes football on its own end of the field or in the last 2:17, it got the ball on a short B.C. punt and failed on a fourth-down pass from the B.C. 22 with 18 seconds to play. It was a flip-flop game, virtually all H.C.

In the first half, all B.C. in the last. The Eagles' plagued by a numb-fingered wildness for 35 minutes underthrowing and overthrowing receivers, and suffering three intercept tions finally managed to get off enough strikes to win the game. B.C. Page 69 on the part of the B.C.

O'Neil was put under assault by three Eagle linemen, who got small pieces of him but failed to contain him. O'Neil got his pass off, but at first glance it appeared doomed. Vrionis, a yard deep in the B.C.

endzone, was under apparently air-tight double coverage. Defensive back John Salmon was a step behind him and Harry Pierandi was a step in front of him and the ball was coming in high. But Pierandi's swipe at the ball missed, and the big Holy Cross end jammed in front of Salmon in. a hook pattern, took the ball with a rebounder's leap and came down with it a yard inside the goal-line. By JERRY NASON Exeeativ Sport Editor WORCESTER After a Macabre first half, in which the opposition appeared to have established permanent tenancy in alarming proximity to their goal, Boston College got its offense de-iced in the final 30 minutes of play to repulse Holy Cross, 13 to 6, on the tundra of Fitton Field in 31-degree, bright and brittle weather Saturday.

Some clutch catches by sophomore receiver Steve Kives, a late entry at offensive end when mononucleosis grounded Jim Kavanagh, set up both B.C. touchdowns, scored on similar one and two-yard dive tackle plays in the third and final quarters by halfback Terry Erwin. One of the few battery specialists with apparent immunity to frostbite, Kives picked off three Joe DiVito passes for 68 yards, every one a key catch in scoring drives. Otherwise it was a contest largely dominated by the defensive units and strongly influenced by hand-numbing weather and a roistering n'west breeze which brrrrr-ed through the open end of the field. Holy Cross left the field at intermission with a 6 to 0 lead on a somewhat implausible breakdown Pistons Hand Celtics Sixth Defeat, 112-107 A By WELL GRIMSLEY Auactsted Pren PHILADELPHIA Gibes by a seemingly over- confident and perhaps cocky Army team came i back to haunt the Cadets Saturday as aroused, un-I derdog Navy scored a 19-14 victory in the 68th foot-, ball game between the two service academies.

"Sure, we read the things they said in the papers find it was bound to affect us," said John Cartwright, Ik 1 which defeated Oakland at home. The Bruins meet Montreal in a 7:30 game tonight at the Garden. The deadlock ended a victory string at four games for the B's, and was a letdown for the onlookera after spirited action earlier in the game. Among other things, Johnny Bucyk bagged his 14th and 15th goals to give him lifetime total with the Bruins of 231, passing Milt Schmidt's mark of 229 which Bucyk had tied last Wednesday night against Minnesota. Bucyk was just in front at the left to shove one past Denis DeJordy at 5:24 in the first after a pass across from the right by Johnny Mc-' Kenzie.

Bueyk's other goal, at 1:16 of the second, came on a power play with a pass from Phil Esposito on a 2-on-1 situation. Johnny delayed his shot nicely, then sent the puck up over De-Jordys right shoulder as the goalie crouched for a save. BRUINS Page 6S windows.

Army was driving for another score a possible winning one with less than four minutes to go after a short Navy kick gave the Cadets the ball on the Middies' 27. They moved to the Navy 23 where fullback Charley Jarvis, a hero in Army's 20 to 7 triumph a year ago, fumbled the ball. It was recovered by Ray DeCario, Navy's middle guard, on the 20. Cartwright took over from there and marched the team 59 yards to the Army 20 before the final gun. Navy took command from the moment John Church kicked a 29-yard field goal at 6:29 of the first period after a 36-yard pass from Cartwright to his favorite receiver Rob Taylor.

Later in the opening quarter, Dan Pike plunge over from the one after a 45-yard march, and early in the second period Navy smashed 82 yards for another touchdown, Jeri Balsly plunging through the middle for the final 13 yards. The Midshipmen made it 19-0 in the early minutes of the fourth period when Nick Kurilko, Army'a punter, NAVY Page 67 Eariier in the week, Bud rjeswiacneny, Armys cap tain and defensive forward known as The General, com- xnented that Cartwright was easily rattled. key to their of- fense and we'll get him," The General said. "Actions speak louder than words," Cartwright said. "I didn't feel too rattled.

I read JJeswiacheny's quote and I kept it in mind. Our team took it as a challenge. I think the game is my; answer." Another Army player, Terry. Young, the team's top pass receiver, said, "I'm not impressed by Navy's pass defense." Navy answered that one too, limiting Steve Lindell, the No. 1 Cadet quarterback for six completions in 22 tries for 55 yards.

It was not until the fourth quarter when Army coach Tom Cahili yanked Lindell for sub Jim O'Toole. that the Cadets were able to muster ny offense, Cartwright, giving a spectacular performance, completed 19 to 29 passes for 240 yards. Ha also rushed for 32 more. Behind, 19 to 0, and frustrated at every turn by the flred-up underdog Middies, Army came to life under O'Toole for two dramatic By TOM FITZGERALD guff Reporter The Bruins made the mistake of going conservative late in the game and paid for the faulty strategy by being caught in a 4-4 tie by the Black Hawks Saturday night at the Garden. After defenseman Dallas Smith regained the lead, 4-3, at 14:36 in the last period on a fine solo rush and backhand finish for his first goal of the season, the Bruins adopted the cautious attitude.

In trying to protect this slender advantage, after previously holding leads of 2-0 and 3-1, the B's iced the puck frequently and generally went into the kitty-bar-the-door routine. This was playing into the hands of the Hawks with their plethora of fine forwards, and it all backfired when Chico Makl weaved in to send a rising lift over Eddie Johnston'! left shoulder at 18:30. This chilled the renewed chant of "We're Number One" among elements in the crowd of 13,909. The Bruins are back in a first place tie with Toronto, as Detroit stretched its five-point halftime edge to 10, 6656. The Pistons pushed their advantage to 14 points when Dave DeBusschere tipped in a Bing shot at the six-minute mark of the period.

DeBusschere, who contributed IS points to his rebounding efforts started the Detroit fast break all evening. Boston hit three straight hoops at the start of the fourth period to cut the lead to six, 87-81, but Bmg, as he did all night, broke the Celtics momentum with a clutch basket. The Celts then closed the Detroit lead to four, 90-86, the nearest they got for the rest of the game, when Sam hit a jumper and free throw and John Havlicek a straightaway from the free throw line against a lone field goal by Detroit!

Saturday night before 7309 shrieking fans at Cobo Arena.

Detroit beat the Celts by using Boston's own attack, the fast break. Dave Bing. and Eddie Miles, the Pistons' youthful snapshooting guards accounted for 71 points between them as De troit strengthened its hold on third place in the Eastern Division. Bing led all scorers with 38 points end showed why he must now be ranked among the top guards in the league. He hit from all over the court, drove whenever he got the chance and con- tributed the clutch baskets that kept Boston from organizing one of their fourth period comebacks.

Detroit took the lead midway in the first period, and Boston never got closer than four points. Miles, who got most of his 33 points from outside, hit three jump shots in the first minute of the third period MULTI-TALENTED Doug Auld is an artist of note.
