CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. Duke's powerful Blue Devils, grinding out a total of 352 yards, crushed Virginia, 30-8, here Saturday afternoon in an Atlantic Coast Conference game. The quicker Duke team moved at will against the Cavaliers and took a 16-0 lead at halftime to wrap it up. Duke added two more touchdowns in the third quarter before Virginia tallied i in the final period. It was a penalty-marred contest with Virginia penalized 100 yards and Duke 77 yards.

However, the penalties had little bearing on the outcome of the game. Two Duke scores in the third period were aided by pass interference penalties, but by then outcome was not in doubt. Wilkinson Breaks Away. Right halfback Jay Wilkinson and quarterback Scotty Glacken led the Duke attack. Wilkinson scored the opening Blue Devil touchdown on a 64-yard run through the right side.

It was the senior's longest run from scrimmage. Glacken had to play the final 40 minutes when starter Dave Uible reinjured his left knee. He first hurt the knee in a scrimmage game two weeks ago. Glacken threw for one score and got the final TD himself. He completed five of 10 for 79 yards.

He engineered all the Duke scoring drives. The game was played before 17,000 at Scott Stadium. It was Duke's second straight conference win. It started with a 22-14 win over South Carolina last week. Virginia now has two defeats in two games.

It lost its opener to Carolina, 11-7. Other Chances. Duke had many other opportunities to score other than the four touchdowns and the safety. It drove to the Virginia 10, 28 and 36 in the first half and to the 5 and 19 in the second half. Virginia had a golden chance to take a quick lead when it drove to the Duke 5.

But fullback Bob Prusmack fumbled on the 1, and fullback Mike Curtis recovered. Virginia also was in Duke territory one other time in the first half and once in the second half, beside the TD. The Blue Devils took the open. ing kickoff and moved from their 39 to the Virginia 10, gaining three first downs. The drive took nine plays with passes from Uible to ends Stan Crisson for 14 and Dave Burdette for nine big plays.

But on first down, Uible tried for Crisson n. over center, and the pass was picked off by safetyman John Depenbrock. But Virginia couldn't gain. The Cavaliers elected to punt on third down. Henry Massie dropped back to punt, but he passed instead.

However, Massie, who was standing in the end zone, had to throw the ball away, and intentional grounding as called. Since the infraction occurred in the end zone. Duke was awarded a safety with 8:55 left. Punt Return. Punt Return.

Then in the second quarter, Gene Angle returned Rod Stewing art's punt for Virginia 29 yards to the Duke 23. On third-and-three quarterback. Bob Dunphey threw a screen pass to fullback mack for eight yards to the eight. Two plays later Prusmack lost the ball, and Duke had possession at the after the touchback. Billy Futrell and Mike Curtis moved the ball to the 36 on two attempts.

Then Wilkinson took a handoff, and of the cut Duke back line. over After the he passed the line of scrimmage, he had clear sailing to the goal line where Angle missed him. Tackles Danny Lonon and Chuck Walker opened the hole. The score came with 9:50 left. Glacken, who was in the game, scored two more points on the conversion on a sweep of right end.

Duke led, 10-0. Duke held Virginia and then started its second drive at its 44. It required nine plays. The touchdown. was a 15-yard pass from Glacken to swing end Stan Crisson See Blue Devils, page 4.

But when they came into possession on the Carolina 35 when punter Bruce Edwards elected to run after getting a high center snap, they called up Bobich again and he delivered a field goal from the 15.

Meanwhile the Tar Heels had made most of their yardage moving from their 44 to the Spartan 28 and from the Spartan 46 to the 32. There the attack bogged down. In the second half the Tar Heels could advance no farther than to their own 43-yard line. Michigan State handled the ball exceptionally well for an opening game. It has a lot of newcomers who should continue the Spartans' usual role of a national power.

By DICK HERBERT. a to EAST LANSING, State ran for 332 and put a tight rein on Carolina's offense here Saturday. That, plus some great placement kicking by a former soccer player, added up to a 31-0 victory that delighted majority of the 60,832 witnesses in Spartan Stadium. Fullback Roger Lopes, a 215- pound senior from Hawaii who was a stringer just a week ago, led the Spartan charge with 157 yards. This was more than the Tar Heels could get running and passing all afternoon.

The Spartans took the opening kickof and marched 73 yards in 1. plays to take the lead. For the remainder of the first half, though, the Tar Heels turned in some cellent defensive work and trailed at the intermission by only 10-0. In the second half it was a different story as the Tar Heels could gain only 27 yards. Lopes broke away for a 76-yard scoring dash up the middle to feature the Spartan onslaught.

Passing Ineffective. A year ago the Tar Heels managed to give a more experienced Michigan State team trouble with its passing, but this time quarterback Junior Edge could not get the air arm working. He completed 10 of 26 for 84 yards. Carolina's running attack did not ease the pressure on the passing game as it netted only 30 yards in 31 carries. The lighter but fast Spartan line refused to be pushed aside, especially on third down plays with short yardage.

The Tar Heels needed all the breaks they could get, but fortune was not with them this cloudy afternoon. A bad snap from center on fourth down put the Spartans in position for a 25-yard field goal by Louis Bobich in the closing minutes of the first half. A fumble on the Tar Heel 26 in the third period set up the Michigan State touchdown that gave the Spartans a 17-0 lead. After that Lopes broke clear and ran 76 yards for another score. Later a fumble recovery on Carolina's 19 set up the final touchdown, which was made by reserve quarterback Dick Proebstile from the 1-yard line.

Field Goal Try. In the first half Carolina got to the Michigan State 28, but a fourth down field goal attempt by Max Chapman was short. On the next possession the Tar Heels moved to the Spartan 32, but a fourth down pass there was intercepted. Other than that the Tar Heel attack could not produce a scoring opportunity. In the second half only four of 11 passes were completed for 19 yards.

On the ground there was a net of only eight yards. The Tar Heels could not match the team speed of the Spartans, and this was reflected on the scoreboard. Coach Duffy Daugherty had third backs on the field with superior speed to anythe Tar Heels could use. "Big Ken Willard ran from scrimmage only four times and got only 10 yards. Hank Barden had a net of three yards on six tries.

Michigan State put the ball in play at its 27 following the opening kickoff. The Carolina line stopped the first two plays for a total of three yards. Sherman Lewis, who has averaged six yards a carry for two seasons, then swept end for nine yards and a first-down. The Spartans ground out short yardage at the line before sophomore Steve Juday tried his first pass. It resulted in a 13-yard completion to end Matt Snorton, who stands 6-4 and weighs 245.

That put the ball on the 21. Two plays later 1 left end Tom Krzeminski slanted in from his wide position and took a strike from Juday on the 10. He was tackled immediately but managed to throw the ball out to Lewis. This delighted young man had no opposition getting into the end zone. Kicks Point.

Bobich, who uses the soccer kick from the side, booted the extra point for a 7-9 lead. The Tar Heels then moved from their 21 to the 40, but they missed a first down by a foot and punted to the Spartan 28. Michigan State advanced from there to the Tar Heel 27, INDIVIDUAL RUSHING.

BY ELDON MILLER. WINSTON SALEM Virginia Tech's Bob Schweickert, the man Wake Forest knew it had to stop to defeat the Gobblers, ran and passed his teammates to a 27-0 victory over the rain soaked Deacons here Saturday. While Wake Forest quarterbacks floundered in rain that fell throughout the game, Schweickert used passing and smart play calling to quarterback the Gobblers to a 9-0 halftme lead. Then with murderous poise in the second half, the 185-pound junior ran 63 yards to set up a VPI -with himself subsquentlf sneaking in the score and later scored again on a 25 fard run.

a The dejected Deacons, with their 12th straight loss imminent, gave up the final VPI touchdown with 45 seconds left in the game. Bobby Owens, a third team quarterback, hit Dick Kelly on a 38- yard play. Schweickert was the man who buried Wake Forest last year at Blacksburg, when he ran for two touchdowns and passed for more in a 37-8 VPI victroy. Crowd Dwindles. What started out as an estimated 7,000 persons, huddled under m.ulti-colored umbrellas, watched Wake Forest equal its longest losstreak, That earlier string was broken the first game of 1958 season.

As rain and VPI points kept pouring down on Bowman Gray Stadium, the crowd dwindled to a skelton crew the most tolerant. Wake Forest, using three quarterbacks in an effort to muster an offense equal to that of the Gobblers, moved only as deep as the Virginia Tech 24. That penetration came on the next to last play of the game. The Deacons' only serious scoring attempt came in the first quarter when quarterback Kari Sweetan attempted a 38-yard field goal with 3:20 gone. The kick was short and wide.

Sweetan, who missed the Wake Forest opener against East Carolina last weekend after suffering a broken wrist Sept. 7, made an unexpected debut in this contest. He entered the game for the field goal attempt and was used for punting and occasional signal calling. Showing his lack of practice, the junior college transfer from Texas lost the ball to Virginia VPI's Tommy Walker goes high Tech twice in the first half and was unable to complete a pass until late in the game. Sweetan Punts Help.

His punts kept Virginia Tech away from scoring territory some, however. He booted six times for a 43.5-yard average. There were 17 fumbles on the sloppy field, nine by Wake Forest. The Deacons lost four fumbles and the Gobblers lost three. Neither team had scored at the end of the first quarter and it took no wild imagination for one to consider the pssibiilty a 0-0 tie.

The persistent rain made early play a defensive show. Wake Forest, on its first offensive series, moved to the VPI 30, but staggered there and Sweetan tried his field goal. VPI's variability in the second quarter led to a 25-yard field goal by Dickie Cranwell that gave the Gobblers a 3-0 lead with 8:45 left in the half. VPI started the drive for that field goal from Wake 45 after Tommy Marvin recovered a wild pitchout by Sweetan. Fullback Darrell Page alternately taking pitchouts from Schweickert and bulling through the middle of the Wake defense, did most of the running as VPI moved to a first down on the Deacon 10.

Wake Forest tightened there and Cranwell had goal from the 15. Wake Forest, quarterbacked by Wally Bridwell, moved from its 38 to the VPI 31 in six plays. Bridwell then was shaken up and replaced by Sweetan. Fumble Paves Way. Sweetan fumbled on a handoff attempt the next play and VPI's Burton Rodgers recovered on the 32.

VPI, with key gains on a Wake Forest personal foul, a pass interference call against Wake's Joe Carazo that gave it a first down on the Deacon 21, and Scheickert passes of 11 and 12 yards to Marvin put the ball on the 8. Halfback Tommy Walker hit the line for three plays, the last one a one-yard touchdown plunge and VPI led, 9-0, with 50 seconds left in the half. The field and most performers became slower the second half, but not Schweickert. After several sputtering by both teams, the young man from Bon Air, struck with his 63-yard run from the VPI 27. He ran to the left on a keeper play, then cut across the field and finally was brought down on the 10 by Carazo, who somehow eluded about five VPI blockers to make the stop.

Two plays later Schweickert gained six yards to the 1 on See Deacons, page 4.

By GRADY ELMORE. HATTIESBURG, Miss. Quarterback Jim Rossi pitched State's Wolfpack past Southern Mississippi, 14-0, here Saturday night to gain the Pack its second straight victory of the season and an even split of the schools' six-year rivalry. The 5-10, 175-pound senior from Asheville brought back nightmares to the some 11,500 fans of State's 20-13 win here two years ago when Roman Gabriel starred. Rossi's accurate throwing brought a 13-for-15 completion performance for 131 yards and both touchdowns.

Rossi put State on the scoreboard with just 13 seconds left in the first half by throwing for a four -yard touchdown to end Ray Barlow in the right corner of the end zone. His passes picked up 35 of the 44 yards in that drive. Rossi's throwing brought 59 of the 74 yards in the other scoring march, and he hit end Bob Faircloth from three yards out early in the final quarter. Gus Andrews made both placements, making the soph six-for-six this season as he enjoyed a four-forfour day at Maryland in the 36- 14 opening triumph. First Quarter.

Joe Scarpati took the kickoff on the seven and returned to the 27. Larry Ecuyer broke through and spilled Scarpati for a loss of five yards on the first play. Pete Falzarano drove up the middle for nine, and Jim Rossi was thrown for a loss of three on a pass-run option. Dave Houtz punted a 50- yarder, which Herman Nall returned nine yards to Southern's 37. Southern got one first down on the strength of Nall's nine yard burst on the first play, but failed by inches of making another at the State 49, punting to State's 13.

Tony Koszarsky made a nifty punt return down the right sidelines for 19 yards to State's 32. Rossi hit Koszarsky for a 10- yard gain and a first down as State moved out to its 49. Herman Brannon reached up and intercepted a Rossi throw on the Southern 25, however, and gave the Southerners the ball. Kiszarsky swept right end and cut back toward the middle on a 43-yard jaunt to the Southern 35. But a 15-yard roughness penalty nullified the big gain and shoved State back to its 14 as the quarter ended.

Houtz booted a booming 70-yard quick kick on third down, to the Southern 14. Southern couldn't advance and kicked back to State on its 33. Koszarsky's nine-y a rush brought a first down out on the Pack 47: State missed a first down by inches at the Southern 44. On Houtz's punt to the 14, an official was racked and Southern drew See WOLFPACK, Page Seven..
