The Lions had not the slightest trouble in winning their eighth without a loss this season, their 19th in a row over two seasons and extending their unbeaten string to 27, longest in the nation since Oklahoma went 48 games in the mid 50s.

It was 35-0 at the half. Penn State scored the first three times it got the ball, all three touchdowns by, Charlie Pittman, who erased Lenny Moore's Penn State career record in TDs. Pittman raiased his total to 26 with the three first period scores. Jack Ham got things started by blocking Greg Fries' first punt attempt. The Lions could have scored right then but had trouble picking up the loose ball.

John Ebersole finally grabbed it and stumbled to the Maryland 15. PITTMAN SCORES ed up a first down at the three on a third down play and then Pittman carried twice, scoring from the two. Mike Reitz kicked the seventh point. Maryland got its off the next time but the Lions marched 54 yards in six plays for a score. Pittman almost scored on a pass from Chuck Burkhart.

He caught it in the clear but near the sideline and couldn't stay in bounds. He went out at the nine. After Abbey took it to the two, Pittman took it in. A brilliant, diving interception by Paul Johnson of a pass deflected by Ham gave Penn State its third opportunity from the 22. Abbey went to the four on a third and one from the 13 and Pittman scored on the next play.

Reitz made it 21-0 with 5:01 remaining in the period. NEW RECORD This was the TD that broke Moore's record and Lenny was the first to congratulate Pittman when he returned to the sidelines. The 21 points in the first period were four more than the Lions had scored in the first period in the previous seven games. But there was more to come. Maryland got a chance with an interception by Leonard Massie, who took the ball to the Penn State 13.

The Terrapins reached the five but Reading High graduate Tom Miller was thrown at the seven on fourth down.

On first down, quarterback Jeff Shugars was clobbered by Gary Hull just as he released the ball. The ball popped up in the air and Mike Reid, who had been locked out at the line of scrimmage, grabbed it at the 26 and went into the end zone untouched.

LONG DRIVE The fifth Penn State score came on an 85-yard drive in 12 plays after Mayland had moved to the Penn State 15, mainly on passes, before its attack stalled. The big play for Penn State was a 25-yard Burkhart-to-Pittman pass that put the ball on the Maryland 35. After getting a first down on the nine, the Lions turned to Abbey. He burst through for eight to the one and then crashed over for the score. Reitz' fifth conversion made it 35-0 at the half.

KRONE HERSHEY, The Hershey Bears broke a fourgame losing streak by pounding out a 5-1 victory over the Baltimore Clippers in an American Hockey League game here Saturday night.

It was a typical battle between the two rivals. The game was punctuated with fist fight and rough play. The victory gave the Bears a fresh hold on second place in the Western Divison of the league. GRATTON GETS 1ST Jean Gratton scored for the Bears in the first period and Ted Snell added another in the second. In the third period Bud Debrody scored twice when he collected rebounds from shots; fired by Mike Nykoluk.

Captain Nykoluk collected By GEORGE STRODE COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) A devastating Ohio State defense pressured Mike Phipps into five interceptions Saturday and clinched a Big Ten title ing of Purdue. Rex Kern scored twice and passed for a third touchdown in directing the versatile Ohio State attack that virtually killed Purdue's Rose Bowl hopes in snowy, 23-degree weather before a national television audience and 85,027 fans. Ohio State equalled its own Big Ten winning streak record of 17 and prolonged its overall victory string to 22 games, six straight for the Buckeyes in the conference this season going into their showdown at Michigan next week.

HAYDEN LEADER Halfback Leo Hayden, who has played in the shadow of Kern and fullback Jim Otis in eight Buckeye victories this fall, led the crunching Ohio ground game with 130 yards in 14 carries and scored one touchdown. Ted Provost and Mike Sensibaught both picked off two Phipps passes and Tim Anderson snatched one as the Heisman Trophy candidate could Marauders Finish With 44-13 Win By MAC RUTHERFORD Carl Borst exploded for four first half touchdowns, as the Millersville Marauders closed out the 1969 football season with a 44-13 victory over Cheyney at Millersville Saturday. The fired up Marauders jumped on the scoreboard the first time they had the ball, moving 70 yards in 12 plays with Borst ramming over right tackle for the score with 8:03 left in the first period. In the opening drive Borst gained 66 yards on six carries. Fullback Rich Barbacane picked up the remaining four.

GOOD BLOCKING It was the Millersville power sweep that got blockers out infront of the runner that sent the Marauders down field on their first score and this was the pattern that would be followed all afternoon. It was devastating blocks that allowed Borst and Tom Ershaw to gain yards almost at will. Following a the first Marauder score the Cheyney Wolves came back for a score after intercepting a Millersville pass on the 48 and returning it to the 22. Thomas Harris opened the Wolves scoring when he hauled in a screen pass and sprinted 31 yards for the score. His kick was good to tie the game 7-7 with 6:06 remaining in the first quarter.

Millersville jumped out in front to stay with only 15 seconds remaining in the first period, when Borst capped a 67- yard drive with four-yard run.

The game marked the season finale for The loss was their seventh in a row, after an opening game 17-13 win over Ursinus. The record is the first losing one and the worst overall mark since the 1963 team turned in a 1-6 slate. In 1962, the Diplomats were 0-8. Muhlenberg put itself on the scoreboard about halfway through the first quarter, when sophomore tailback Bruce Weaver from Lebanon, scored the first of his three touchdowns of the afternoon, from eight yards out.

The Mules seemed in command throughout the quarter, and only a costly fumble kept them from another score. STRONG QUARTER But the second quarter proved to be one of the brightest moments for the young Blue, who seemed up for the game. Barry Nemiroff scored on a one-yard dive after a 52- yard drive, in which he had picked up a key first down to keep the ball in hands. With 3:44 left in the quarter, sophomore quarterback Larry Shadek unloaded with a pass in the flat to a wide-open Rusty O'Brien, who raced 46- yards to give its halfPage 34-DIPS Manning, the 6-foot-3 junior quarterback from Drew, set up two first quarter touchdowns with his passing and Tennessee made only one serious scoring threat.

Purdue's only touchdown until Phipps' two yard scoring pitch to Ashley Bell in the closing minutes was an electrifying 98-yard kickoff return in the second quarter by Stan Brown, the Big Ten leader in that department this season. 36 Doug Barrie of the Clippers and Bob Leiter Hershey swapped a high sticking bit of rough play and went to the cooler. George Swarbrick of Baltimore and Pete Ford swapped punches at 5:42.

Both went to the bench. Jean Gratton put the Bears on the board at 12:37 after a blazing attack that put the Hershey forwards deep in Clipper territory. A fast moving scrimmage in front of the Baltimore net set up the scoring play and Gratton deflected a short shot from the stick of Captain Mike Nykoluk into the net The Bears scored again in the second period and held a 2-0 lead at the buzzer. SNELL SCORES Ted Snell pounced upon Bud Debrody's rebound after a sharp scrimmage and blasted a shot at close range to give the Bears the goal at 7:38. It was rough from the opening whistle to the final buzzer.

Late in the period Barry Ashbee, Bear defense ace, and Jim Barlett of the clippers tangled in close play. Both went to the penalty box. Grat- Picture On Page 30 in front in the first 29 minutes. CALLS OFF REGULARS The fast-starting Buckeyes, who have scored the first two touchdowns in every game they have played this season, sped into a 28-0 lead before Brown's stunning return just before halftime. Maark Debevec's recovery of a blocked Purdue field goal attempt at the Buckeye 40- yard line launched the Ohio State point parade with minutes gone in the game.

Kern guided the Buckeyes 57 yards in 11 plays, covering the last six yards himself on a keeper in the first quarter. Stan White kicked Ohio State's first field goal of the season from the 33-yard line, Jim Otis ran five yards and Kern one for touchdowns and Kern zipped a 38-yard scoring pass to Bruce Jankowski. The Buckeyes were 28 points The Marauders moved in for another score early in the second period, when they forced a bad Cheyney punt that stopped at the Wolves' 31 after traveling ony six yards. Once again it was Borst who found pay dirt for the Marauders, this time scoring from the five. Joe Lelinski added the point to up the score to 22- 7.

With the Wolves unable to move they punted the Marauders back to the Millersville 26. And once again the powerful Marauder running attack began to take its toll. BORST SCORES With a third and 10 at the Cheyney 14 Borst took a wide pitch out and zipped into the end zone for his fourth TD of the afternoon. Borst then hit Ershaw with a halfback pass for the two point conversion, to give the Marauders a 30-7 lead. With time running out in the first half Cheyney quarterback Alonzo Blair spotted Bob Gimm all alone at the Millersville 40 and hit him with an 86- yard scoring pass, with only 0:49 remaining in the first half.
