Fiasco Bv LUTHER EVANS Herald Sports Writer University of Miami's revenge-mad Hurricanes demanded the undivided attention of Football America for one night Friday by butchering Rams the highest score in UM history Not even a cheating clock kept in motion throughout the second half when time should have been out could halt the Miamians as they alleviated the year-long pain of last season's 20-0 humiliation at the Polo Grounds Nor could Miami's Andy Gustafson do anything to save face for the Rams despite calling off his first team for good in the first quarter clearing his bench and going so far as to employ junior varsity quarterback Boh Dekreon Spur bed on by 37498 fans who reported more fired up than the athletes if such were possible the zealous third and fourth teams added 34 points of their own to Miami's 41-0 halftime lead Thus the 71 points racked up against somebody named Piedmont when the Hurricanes were minor leaguers in 1933 became a forgotten record Only end Paul Hunter's swiping an errant Miami pitchout and racing 49 yards to a touchdown prevented the Miamians from matching the worst rout in Fordham annals a 75-0 runaway by Penn State in 1947 The Hurricanes scored the first six tiroes they got the football in the first half After that about the most yon could say for Ed Banowski kids were that they showed guts to come out for the third quarter It was the sixth successive victory for Andy's dandies ranked 10th nationally in The Associated Press poll They can hardly help but go up in the ratings while preparing for Auburn It was the third defeat against a tie

Dick Young Said By I1CK YOUNG New York Daily News MIAMI footballers had oxygen on the sidelines of the Orange Bowl Friday night just in case Miami got too hot for them But it the heat it was the humiliation resulting from the 75-7 schalumping second worst beating in Ram history The total could easily have been 100 but for the merciful fact that the clock was kept running contrary to NCAA rules almost continuously during the second half Miami's disregard for NCAA lilies in fact led to a rerent bowl ban for the Hurricanes who appeared a cinch to be in some bowl New Year's day Andy powerhouse has now gone six straight and placed a little parsley on that string Friday night by piling up the highest count in the school's annals a pleasure to watch unless you happen to be watching from where the Rams were which was on their backs most of the time something of a shame that the folks be able to see them on TV come New Year's day but the NCAA says they are just a bit too

Florida was more nervous than a mother reluctantly permitting her only child to venture into the darkness disguished as a Hallow-een goblin Woodruff was concerned over how his Gators will fare in the or engagement with the Miss State Maroons at Florida Field this afternoon The Maroons are so unorthodox that they do not recognize the theory the host team is supposed to up and win the homecoming game They snubbed this tradition last Saturday in derailing Alabama which includes among its weaknesses being allergic to Mississippi teams Need you be reminded that Miss Southern upset the Crimson Tide in its September opener 7T eaSiPifn'iCinS BOB WOODRUFF Woodruff into recalling ear- lier thrills then in persuading him to speculate about what might happen in this important game Despite their 3-3 record the Gators are still in the thick of the scramble for the Southeastern Conference championship looked good against Georgia Bob conceded boys played fine and we showed our best offense in that The Gators ended extended dominance by winning 13 to 12 and Woodruff recalled should have scored more We were inside of Tech's 10-yard line five times but pushed the ball over only Football Mistakes Often Fatal DIDN'T make many mistakes against Woodruff allowed His point was well taken in view of the Gators winning 20 to 7 Woodruff also admitted being pleased with his Florida team's performance against Auburn a 19-13 Gator victim Being kind-hearted I didn't bring tip the futility of the Gators tinder the lights They lost to Rice Clemson and LSU at night a factor w-hich figures in
