Penn State unveiling a new double-barreled offense of Donchez inside and flanker Jim Easie on wide reverses built a 14-0 lead in the second period Donehez scored the first touchdown from the six and tailback Walt Addie tallied from the one Stanford cut it to 14-10 at the half on a seven-yard touchdown pass from Cordova to Ron Inge and a 39-yard field goal by Langford Stanford coach Jack Christiansen said he wasn't surprised when Penn State came out in a Wing-T "He (Joe Paterno) had used it in the past and we thought he might go back to it" Christiansen said "He certainly hid it from the press" Christiansen said his defense had some problems with Penn State's new formations as the Lions built the early 14-0 lead Christiansen said he felt Penn State played it smart in kicking off at the start of the game and taking advantage of a strong wind "We got in a bad position and then they ran back that punt and scored first It was an uphill fight all the way" Christiansen was pleased by the performance of Cordova "He (Cordova) looks like something to build with for the next three years" Christiansen said Stanford came back in the second half "We didn't make any adjustments" said Christiansen "We finally started to move in the second quarter Defensively we wanted to find ways to put more pressure on the quarterback Tom Shuman We wanted to stop the off-tackle and end run plays We stopped them and then Penn State went to the fullback" Christiansen whose Cardinals were hurt by penalties especially in the fourth period was asked his opinions of the officiating: "I thought it stunk" he said "We changed our offense a bit" said Penn State coach Joe Paterno Paterno's eighth-ranked Nitany Lions blossomed out with a wing-T and a double wing that featured a series of flanker reverses There were few flashes of Paterno's customary power-I offense "We don't have that" said Paterno who has had to replace tailback John Cappelletti his 1973 Heisman trophy winner "We've had to diversify our offense" 00r 1 r'ir '11 'Je''' 4i kil 4 ri -0'' i)ti: 'z 4 ioe ri' 1)4 17ri I ftlic i li 0 044f lt 4' I -)i li If A' tS04: i4 lir" 1 4 ft iqt 7arg Av tr'f '-2 441 '4 47 kr 1 IN -1-4 ''3:

until he lets himself fall back the sweat blisters breaking into little streams and his eyes rolling in what seems like a genuine expression of pain Ali is no masochist but his training routine for his Sept 25 title fight with heavyweight champion George Foreman worth $5 million to each boxer is based on the notion that suffering is the quintessential psych Every extra knee-bend every additional sit-up thrown in after sparring seems to make Ali think that he is building a fortress that Foreman will not be able to storm once again put California in front Then came the Gators' winning charge

Ali remembers the picture of sluggishness he gave in some of his fights over the last years and admits: "I committed bad sins on the days of some of those fights Unthinkable things I was a fat man with no legs" Foreman he says is fat: Hasn't trained hard "He's never lost yet and he's right in that intoxication phase of a career "You know I could see it all when we fought those exhibitions out in Utah the other week I came out in my work pants and brogans There was Foreman in red pants and pink shoes He was the champ and he wasn't suffering Mark it all down because this is what it's about "I hate to suffer" All said "but I think the fight is already won when you step in the ring It's what you do before The old psychological highs still are' there Ali shouts "Ain't a heavyweight been
