PARILU SETS MANY RECORDS IN 83-0 GAME Passes To Five Score Before Leaving Tilt To Second-String LEXINGTON, Ky Nov. 18 OP) Vito Parilli unllmbered his brilliant right arm to toe five quick touchdown passes for a new National collegiate reoor.d 28 and start Kentucky to a relaxing 83-0 rout of weak North Dakota today fa aa fatersectional football game before 20,000 fan. The rifle-armad Kentucky quarterback found end Al Bruno waiting for four of his scoring heaves and end Dominie Fuccl awaiting the other. He retired for keeps early fa the second quarter. Kentucky, though playing outside the southeastern conference, clinched its first league ohampionship as Alabama blasted the lest contender, Georgia Tech, 84-19.

North Dakota, never considered a threat to the countrys fifth ranked gridiron power, played its part with only two penetrations of Kentuoky territory. The deepest was to the 88 fa the second quarter on a pass to Cy Ducharm shortly after Kentucky reserves took over for keeps. Parilli and th pennant winning Kentuckians shattered aa assortment of league record fa achieving the win by the widest margin a Kentuoky team had teored since 1914. Parilllt five touohdown pastes eclipsed by one the old national mark of 28 set br Stan Neath of Nevada fa 1948. Parilli, bidding for all-America honors, ran hia yardage oa passes to 1.4TT to shatter th 1,892 yards gained by Frank Sinkwich of Georgia fa 11 game in 1948.

Yalparalao SO Wlttaobecg North Dakota te Nebraska Kentucky Kansas IT Kansas State By GEORGE McARTHGR COLUMBUS, Ga Nov. 18-yP)-A heavily favored Georgia football team had to fight down an unexpectedly accurate passing attack by Bill Tucker today to come from behind and down Auburn 18-10.

Without the servie of halfback Billy Mixon, the Georgia offense would have been all but powerless. He made the first Georgia score through the line after it wag set up by Bill Davis' fumble deep in Auburn territory. In the third quarter, when Georgia trailed by' virtue of a Tucker field goal and touchdown, it was Mixon who was called on to spark two Georgia drives that were necessary for the winning score. Mixon pushed the ball to tha one yard line before a fumble stopped one drive. After a punt exchange, he provided the same spark to push the ball to the Auburn 18.

Speedy Tippy Morocco out in from the right aide, reversed hi field and fcooted over for the winning touchdown. Auburn had forged ahead early in the game after Georgias firat score. It was Bill Tuckers passing arm that spread the Georgia defenses, especially fa the secondary, and set ap the Auburn score. Tucker's abort passes to Fred Du art, Lee Haley and Bobby Golden mixed with Goldens fleet running sparked the Auburn touchdown drive that sent the Plainsmen into tiie lead fa the first quarter. Georgias passing attack was impotent.

Quarterback Mai Cook ooaapleted one of six passes and Ray Prosper! tried one that failed. On the other hand. Tucker passed 88 times and aaarked ap 14 completions. The Auburn line was what oost Tucker, and the Georgia line was largely responsible for Mixons suocees.

Parrish High trounced Holtville High here Friday night, 28-oit, with an alert, aggressive brand of football that paid dividends. They I mad good their Homecoming promise before some 1991 customers, including students, former students and followers.

Billy Crews, senior playing hia final football gam for Parrish, passed and glittered through a brilliant performance, taking one in-terception of an enemy aerial round his own 15 yard line and hauling it 86 thrill-packed yard for a touchdown with a magnificent, twisting, dodging nsi. A I Crews' pitch, II yards downfield to Stewart McKenaie, who stood fa th end sone to make a nice catch of the pass, sent Parriah into a T-0 lead two minutes after Par-rich had kicked off to Holtvllle to open the game and another long aerial, from Crews to Henchley Hiok fa the third period, was good for third soore. Both passes traveled some 46 yards In the air. Crews shared some of the offensive spotlight with Jim Buxton, another lad turning in his final performance. Buxton was responsible jfor more then ball of the Parriah ground gain as he snorted his way to HO rushing, chilling the crowd In the first quarter with grinding 46-yard aprint over hia light tookle for the local's eeoond touchdown.

Buxton added three points following touchdowns when he ripped the Holtvllle line apart to rush over each point following Crews' point after the opening soore. A hard-playing little fullbaok, Jimmy Lewis, stuck his head into file spotlight all through ttbe game, faming in a sparkling defenxive Sme that spoke volumes for his hire contribution to Parriah High. Lewis was murder to Holtvllle runners who had the misfortune to attempt a dash fa his direction. Oivlng terrific aooounts of them-selvee, other than Crews tend Bun-ton, in their final skirmish for the local educational Institute were Tabby Beatty, Beth Minter, Captain Trank Hardy, alternate captain Bobby Binford, James Hooper, John Pendergras, Ed Comer, Ronnie Coffee and Henchley Nix. Nix threw one of the Key blocks In Crews 86-yard touchdown jaunt while Beatty convoyed Crews downfield, taking out the last man pursuing the Parrish quarterback.

Parrishs four touchdown marohee went 36, 65, 86 and 66 yards. Almost before the fans were settled in their seats Parrish atruok. Ted Smith, local tackle from whom much is expected next year, kicked off to Holtvilles 30 and Tommy Davis, quarterback, returned to hia own 81. Holtville tried only one lay before Eddie Wall and Jimmy ewis recovered a visitor fumble on tile 88. Tabby Beatty knifed through left tackle for four and on the next play Crews pass to McKenaie was good for the remaining 81 yards.

Crews bounded through oenter for the extra point, the first of four made by rushing. Holtvllle was game and exhibited a great little passer fa Tommy Davis who completed seven out of IS thrown for T4 yards, one going for a touchdown. Davis added to his laurels when he reached out to tack in one of Crews' aerials oa the 26-yard line of Parrish and galloped unmolested for the first enemy aeore. He sneaked over from the one foot line for his third score.

Comer added seven yards and Buxton ripped up four more to put the ball on Holtvllle 81. Here Orews found Nix fa the end zone waiting for the perfect pass and Parrish raked up its 37th point. Buxton drove over for the 38th. The game produced an unusual oddity when, at the end of the first cjuarter, it was discovered that neither team had recked up a first down although two touchdowns had been made. The first first down was made four minutes fa the seoond quarter with the score reading 14-6 in favor of the locals.

Holtville's final touohdown came after the final on the scoreboard announced the finish of the game but officials didn't hear it, allowing one more play when the visitors crashed to with a ten-yard aerial touchdown. Tt was a great finish for the senior and fin commentary to head coach Hodges and his assistants, John Scarborough and Rich Richardson, and th boys returning next year. It took the lads out at Parrish a few games before they could master th split-T but master it they did through determination and spunk. Defensively Parrish held Holt-villa to a scant 66 yards net from nois ten whan Eli Pope, defensive fullback, recovered hia second fumble as sophomore hobbled. Later Chuck Gendee led a spurt to the mini 86 before Ohio State was stalled.

The Buckeyes almost gave Illinois another touohdown at tile outset of the first period.

The play wa good for 52 yards.

Six minutes later the Illini thrust again through die air to what became the clinching marker. The drive was touched off by mini Jo Halls recovery of Chuck Gan-dees bobble on the Illinois 47. With Johnny Karras streaking 12 yards, th Illini covered the distance goalward in seven plays with Major finally pitching the last five yards to Stevens in the end zone. The payoff pass came on a spread formation off a fake punt, a play nursed along in secrecy all season to be used today. Just before the touchdown, Majors toss to end Tony Klimek on the same spread alignment was fumbled by the great end, but Stevens snapped it up in midair to make It count and set up a score on the next down.
