The victory gave Alabama a 3-2 mark. Vandy is now 2-3. By HUBERT MIZELL Associated Press Sports Writer TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) John Reaves fired an 81-yard scoring pass to tight end Jim Yancey to awaken a drowsy Florida offense Saturday and the Gators then outran Florida State 38-27, in a game spiced by sole last-minute fist swinging. The longest Florida aeria touchdown in history wiped out a 7-0 Florida State lead ad Reaves continued to connect, finishing with 13 of 22 for 246 yards and two touchdowns.

FSUs third quarterback sophomore Gary Huff, did the job where two more experienced predecessors failed. He drove the beaten Seminoles for three fourth-quartet touch downs, on passs and 66 yards filled the bowl around a streaked artifical turf below where the one sided football war was waged. Coach Bear Bryant kept his horses Johnny Musso and Dave Brungard on the fracas only when necessary to roll up yardage and that was early in the game. Otherwise, second line players carried foe brunt of the attack. Musso had 76 yards in an Alabama running game that netted 344 yards.

Obviously, the Tide was looking ahead to next Saturday when they face the on charging Tennessee Volunteers up in Knoxville.

Still reeling from last years 14-0 defeat by the Commodores, the Crimson Tide played like a team with something to prove. The Tides notoriously porous defense got it all together and plugged up the holes after last weeks murderous assault by Ole Miss.

Alabama defenders allowed Vandy only 57 yards on the ground and in the air, and most of Vandys gains came after Alabama had the game in the bag. The game was played under a canopy of blue sky with just enough nip in the air to turn up the football spirit and 49,038 Crimson Tide partisans who tories without fireworks or excitement. However, Buddy Seay tore the thing wide open on the opening kick-off of the second half. The Dadeville senior grabbed the kick-off on his own seven and squirted through Vandy tacklers 93 yards for a touchdown. It was the ninth longest kick-off return in Alabama history.

Ultimately, in the fourth quarter Coach Bear Bryant showed mercy on -Vandy, premising the Commodores to score their long touchdown and that with a previous field goal was all the point fnaking Vandy could muster.

By MIKE RATHET Associated Press Sports Writer CINCINNATI (AP) Veteran third baseman Brooks Robinson gave Baltimore the run they needed with a homer and veteran umpire Ken Burkhart made a home-plate call they needed as the Orioles edged Cincinnati 4-3 Saturday in the opening game of the World Series. Robinson went only l-for-19 as the Orioles were Upended by the New York Mets in the World Series last year.

But he snapped a 3-3 tie in the seventh inning Saturday With a home run that put the finishing flourish on a three-homer Baltimore barrage. Robinsons homer came only a half inning after the Orioles had gotten the call they needed from Burkhart. That came after Bernie Carbo walked with two out and Tommy Helms followed with a single. Carbo raced around to third on the play and streaked home when pinch hitter Ty Cline tapped in front of the plate. As Carbo neared the plate, he upended Burkhart while Hendricks lunged for the tag.

Burkhart, prone, signaled for the out. Carbo argued. Cincinnatis Manager Sparky Anderson argued. The crowd of 51.531 Ho-weled in derision. Four towels were sailed out of the Reds dug-out.

But the decision stood. And Anderson refused to complain after the game, explaining quietly: The umpire didnt beat us -Baltimore did it by putting three over the fence. Carbo told me Hendricks never tagged him with his glove hand and had the ball in the other hand. Carbo said Hendricks tagged Burkhart.

Florida leads the series 10-2-1. This One had few hot moments until the last minutes when several players from both sides began scuffing. Reaves fumbled a handoff to open the door for FSUs early touchdown. Bob McEachern covered it at the Gator 31 and, after Frank Whigham hit Rhett Dawson with key passes for 21 and 13 yards, Jim Garrett crashed over the goal from three yards out. Passes Punts Fumbles lost Sports Beat recovered the ensuing kickoff at the Georgia seven when the Bulldogs were slow in attempting to field it.

However, Mississippi had to settle for a 36-yard field goal by Cloyce Hinton that broke the tie with .11:41 remaining. Julian Smiley scored two touchdowns for Georgia, one on a 10-yard run and the other on a six-yard pass from Cavan. Robert Honeycutt also scored for the Bulldogs on a one yard run. Manning, still obviously plagued by a pull 'd groin muscle, scored on a three-yard run in the second quarter. He hit on 16 of 30 passes for 244 yards, but had three intercepted.

It was the ninth straight vic dog, appeared on the verge of a major upset after fighting to a 14-14 standoff at halftime and halting Manning and the Rebels cold on their first three possessions of the third period.

But Georgia failed to score when Smileys fumble at the three flew into the end zone where Fred Brister recovered, giving Mississippi possession at its Smiley wide open at the three on the scoring play with 1:18 left in-the quarter. By ED SHEARER Press Writer ATHENS, Ga. AP) Archie Manning rifled three touchdown passes and scored himself Saturday to pace fifth-ranked Mississippi to a 31-21 comeback victory over Georgia in a Southeastern Conference football game.

Manning unloaded a 66-yard touchdown bomb to Vernon Studdard on the sixth play of the game and later connected with Floyd Franks for 52 yards and Jim Poole for nine yards. Georgia, whose offense had sputtered with one exception in its last nine games, rode the passing and running of reserve quarterback Mike Cavan to a 21-14 lead entering the final quarter. But Manning, who had engineered scoring drives of 80, 85 apd 85 yards, drew his club even early in the final quarter when he completed four passes for 83 yards, the last being the 52-yard scoring toss to Franks. Ronnie Moses of Mississippi Ing and couldnt see me play. I asked Burkhart: did you see him tag him? Burkhart said: Yes, I saw him tag him.

I have to take the mans word for it. Burhart, appearing in a towel outside the umpires room after the game, said, Anderson came out and argued that he did not tag him. And I said he absolutely Aid tag him. However, Burkhart admitted he didnt see Carbo racing home. Asked pointedly how he could see Hendricks make the tag while looking over his shoulder as he was falling, Burhart said: I dont know how I saw it.

It happened so fast. The Reds also got off fast In this one, collecting three runs on a -run-producing single by catcher Johnny Bench in the first inning and Mays two-run homer in the third. First baseman Boog Powell, the hulking blond bomber, got two runs back with a homer in the fourth and catcher Elrod Hendricks tied it with a homer in the fifth. That set the state for the Heroics by Robinson, who proceeded to give the Orioles a 1-0 lead in the opener of this best-of-7 series and keep alive a seasonending winning streak that now stretches to 15 victories. The Orioles won their final 11 games during the regular season, raced past Minnesota in three straight in the AL playoffs and took an important first step toward the guaranteed $15,000 Series prize for each winning player.

Robinson, who entered the season considered on the downgrade after two lackluster seasons, flashed his fielding skill in the sixth inning when he took a hit away from May. May, leading off, smashed a hot grounder past third that Robinson fielded in foul territory. Throwing off balance, he fired to first. The throw bounced once but was on target and Powell grabbed it to retire May. That eventually saved a run for Palmer when Bernie Carbo walked and Tommy Helms singled, him to third with what turned out to be the only hit off Palmer after the third inning.

After Helms hit, the only major dispute of the gam oc-cured. Pinch hitter Ty Cline, a star of two Cincinnati victories in the National League playoffs aganst Pittsburgh tapped in front of the plate. Sunday Hedge-Hopping Cavan hit on nine of 17 passes for 160 yards and sophomore Ricky Lake, playing in his first game, spearheaded the Bulldog running game with 85 yards on 15 carries.

Playing both ways against the Selma Saints, including snapping on kicks, he went about his way of wrecking the Selma offense individually and hes big enough for college play also. If it's any consolation to Alabama fans, 16 of the 22 Tide startere last Saturday against Ole Miss will be around another year while 17 of the Rebels depart via graduation or loss of eligibility this time around. The generation gap can make for quite a difference.
