the $65000 bonus baby of a few years back By DON OLIVER Reporter-New 8 port Writer CRUMP STADIUM MEMPHIS Tenn Oct The Abilene Christian College Wildcat crippled to the point of despai by tambieitia managed to salvage a diurnal 6-6 tie with the Memphis State Tigers here Saturday night to drop from the select list of unbeaten and untied college teams The Christians led everywhere but the scoreboard racking up 13 first downs to only five for the hosts but fumbles and pass interception halted them mi all but one drive ACC netted 144 yards to 93 rushing and 27 to 13 yards passing but couldn't go in the dutch Eight bobbles were made by the Wildcats Memphis State recovering three Three aerials were stolen all from the arm of Leondous Fry Even with all of the misfortunes suffered the Christians might have come out ahead save for a 13-yard penalty that ushed them back from the Memphis State 10 to the 3S With only 4:30 left in the game Gene Boyd who had carried the ball from the 12 to the 10 on the play was ushered from the game for unsportsman' like conduct and the 13-yard crippling penalty walked off against the Wildcats Fry then lost ing a peeloff and had to punt to end the threat All in all it just ACCs night The Wildcats had one more chance after losing the ball but a pass interception halted the drive and the Christians had to stave off a last-ditch Memphis aerial at tack as the buzzer sounded It was Jimmy Hirth who halted things giving Tiger fans a near heart attack a he ran back an intercepted pass from the Wildcat 20 to the 33 and nearly going all the way Fsmble Sets TD It was the recovery eg a Wildcat fumble by Fry that set up the Memphis State touchdown in the late stages of the first period The Wildcats' Boyd had intercepted an Andy Nelson pass and returned it from the ACC 13 to the 21 Then Paul Goad lost a yard before Fry fumbled on the Christian IS Bob Patterson recovered for the Tigers who scored on the first play Jim Shelton romped around end 18 yards for the marker behind terrific wall of blockers Fry the last Wildcat being blasted out of the way on a block by John Phillips the Tiger blocking back Shelton tried the placement but it was wide and the Tigers led 6-0 with 3:35 left in the opening i quarter A 64-yard punt by Fry set the Tigers back to their own 3 Boyd slamming safety man Shelton at that point on a nice tackle to start ACC on the way to a touchdown Nelson booted a 47-yarder with Hirth reluming from the midfield i stripe to the Tiger 38 Mere ea Ground The Wildcats marched all the way on the ground Goad doing most of the work It was Goad who hammered over left tackle for the touchdown from the two with 9:15 left in the half Hirth then tried the placement but it was wide The fourth quarter drive that almost was successful would have been a real credit to the Christians had not the penalty killed it Starting on tlieir own five following a punt the Wildcats worked Goad to death moving quickly with three first downs to their 41 On fourth down Fry punted 46 yards but Memphis State was penalized for clipping on the punt to hand the Wildcats a first down on the Tiger 44 Goad and Boyd got six and seven for another first with 8:00 left and then Fry hit Von Morgan with a 13-yardcr to the 18 on a must third down situation Then came six from the churning heels of Fry before Boyd made two and lost the 15 on the penalty Thera vu a his mtxup on the play and strangely enough Boyd was the only player thrown out of the game The Christians left here at 12 midnight by their chartered plane for Abilene
