Duke's miracle workers finally ran out of miracles.

CARR Staff Writer CHAPEL HILL If Tulane's football team was really dead like so many insisted just a week ago then 39,000 fans witnessed a rather dramatic resurrection in storied Kenan Stadium Saturday afternoon. For as the eerie shadows began emveloping the picturesque old ballyard, the Green Wave suddenly raised up and gave previously unbeaten Carolina a shocking 37- 29 defeat.

Early in the game UNC exposed its vulnerable secondary to Mike Walker, and the Tulane quarterback alertly exploited that area for four touchdown passes and 245 yards. Then, when it looked as if Carolina was ready to pull off a dramatic comeback win early in the fourth quarter, Coleman Dupre dashed 101 yards for another touchdown to fend off the Tar Heels. All these transactions left the partisan crowd in a daze, and the Tar Heels' record blemished at 4-1. What also eats into UNC's pride is that heretofore, Tulane's offense had sputtered and jerked like a malfunctioning used car. Just a a week ago, it dropped 11 passes and lost its third game of the year (14-3) to William and Mary.

But Saturday's performance was not an illusion. Tulane is better than its record, and the Tar Heels although defeated must be applauded for their gallant comeback bids. UNC was down 21-3 with and trailed 28-11 left in the first, half, termission. Yet behind the direction of quarterback Paul Miller it kept charging, and pulled to within five points (23-28) and (29-34). Carolina was doing all this without Ike Oglesby, who missed the game because of leg soreness sustained a week ago against State.

previous games, parlayed a 39-yard third quarter field goal by Eddie Seigler into a 3-0 victory in the Atlantic Coast Conference clash. The punchless Blue Devils, their offense hampered by the absence of injured fullback Steve Jones for the second straight game, were unable to deliver with the big defensive play that has characterized their triumphs. Neither Coach Mike McGee, whose shrewd personnel changes have paid dividends previously, nor defensive back Ernie Jackson, whose crucial punt returns and pass interceptions sparked other victories, could come up with game-breaking play in this charity contest before 20,000 spectators. Instead, it was Clemson Coach Hootie Ingram who became the tactical hero. Although his team could have received the second half kickoff, Ingram instead elected to defend a goal.

That gave the Tigers a a a a a a brisk wind at their back in the third quarter. The move looked like a mistake at first. Duke took the kickoff and drove from its 30 to the Tiger 39 before giving up the ball at the 14 on a punt. And later in the period, a Duke punt set Clemson back to its 10. See DUKE, Page 4 Mows Pirates Down, 5-3 three innings, didn't need it.

He shut the Pirates off completely while walking only two and striking out nine. Yet when the Pirates began chipping away in the second inning, with the aid of the Orioles' errors, it appeared that McNally might not even be around as long as Ellis. The trouble began for the four-time 20-game winner when he walked Bob Robertson on a 3-2 pitch to open the second inning and wild pitched him to second. Sanguillen then bounced to shortstop Mark Belanger, who tried to cut down Robertson heading for third. But his throw hit Robertson and rolled into the Baltimore dugout, enabling the Pirate first baseman to race home with the game's first run.

McNally then threw out Jose Pagan as Sanguillen took third. But when Jackie Hernandez bunted in front of the plate, McNally, couldn't get Sanguillen coming home and catches Ellie Hendricks Fall Wake Forest N.C.

The Wolfpack was awarded a touchdown after time ran out with the ball 50 yards away from the goal. That incident, climaxing a comedy of errors by both teams, a final score of 21-14, State.

Wake Forest riddled the Wolfpack defense for 402 yards rushing, but was plagued constantly fumbles and penalties. Trailing 15-0, the Deacons finally punched over two last quarter touchdowns to set up one of the most fantastic finishes in the long series between these two rivals. By JOE TIEDE Sports Editor Conversion Vital The play that really decided the outcome came on the conversion after Wake's second touchdown, which made the score 15-14 with 1:39 left to play. Quarterback Larry Russell, who scored both Deacon touchdowns, attempted to run the option play to the short side of the field. He didn't come close, however, as end Brian Krueger grabbed him at the five.

Frank Robinson and Don Buford also homered in a display of Baltimore power but Rettenmund's shot, off controversial Dock Ellis, brought the Orioles from behind in third inning for a 43 lead they never surrendered.

McNally, meanwhile, extended the Orioles' season-ending winning streak to 15 games covering 11 regular season games, three playoffs and this World Series opener by methodically mowing down the Pirates' power hitters. Shaken for three unearned runs in the second inning when the usually flawless fielding Orioles made two errors, to do was run out the clock. But it failed to do SO as a fumble by quarterback Pat Korsnick and then a penalty served to stop the clock. So, the Wolfpack was forced to punt from the 49. With rain pouring down, as it had early in the game, kicker Mark Cassidy couldn't handle a low snap and the Deacons had the ball at the State 36 with 2 22 seconds remaining.

ball didn't remain there long, however. The referee suddenly paced off a 15-yard unsports anlike-conduct penalty against the Deacons, pointing to the Wake Forest bench. It looked as if that penalty would finally kill off the Deacons, who made enough errors in this game to last them a season. But halfback Ken Garrett darted through right tackle Romania's Cup Hopes Still Alive By LENOX RAWLINGS Staff Writer CHARLOTTE Rain droplets rolling from his nose, Romania's Ion Tiriac joined Ilie Nastase to capture a straight-set doubles victory Saturday and send the Davis Cup Challenge Round into its third day still undecided. Tiriac, 32-year-old veteran who joined Romania's Cup team in 1959, earlier had dropped a two-game completion of Friday's second singles match to America's Frank Froehling, 3-6, 1-6, 6-1, 6-3, 8-6.

Froehling's triumph, which required only six minutes and 12 points, thrust the U. S. team into strong command of the Challenge Round. But Tiriac and Nastase soundly whipped Stan Smith and Erik Van Dillen 7-5, 6-4, 8-6 in the ensuing doubles match, slicing the margin to 2-1 with two singles battles remaining. Smith Favored America should win the Challenge Round since Smith is rated an overwhelming favorite over Tiriac in Sunday's scheduled opening singles match.

Tiriac displayed an accurate bevy of passing shots and See ROMANIA, Page 10 Dave McNally tough at home McNally was touched for his third and final hit in the third inning, then retired 19 men in order before Manny for 20 yards to the State 32, nearly breaking away. At this point, things really got confusing. With 14 seconds left, Russell dashed off the field and field goal kicker Chuck Ramsey went in. With the clock running out, Ramsey obarely made connections 50-yard attempt and the ball snubbed off to the left. Connerback Bill Miller of State picked it up and started out toward a clear field.

But Russell, though on the bench for this play, still had his heart on the field. He dashed onto the playing surface and tackled Miller to prevent a touchdown. The officials ruled Miller would have scored and awarded a touchdown on the play, which have covered 69 yards. There was no extra point as both teams had already gone to their dressing rooms. Dazzling Runs In addition to the wild finish, it a game marked by dazzling runs by both sides Sophomores Willie Burden and Charley Young ripped off yardage for State, while Wake fullback Larry Hopkins and halfback Ken Garrett broke tackles time after time.

State, winless in four games, thus made its first victory under head Coach Al Michaels a memorable one. After moving out to a 9-0 halftime lead, the Wolfpack uncorked a 61-yard pass play from Korsnick to Young for a third quarter touchdown. Korsnick, nearly, trapped trying to pass, broke loose to the right and found Young in the open field on the left side. The big fullback got one block from Mike Stultz, and outran everybody else in sight to the goal line. A pass for two points was incomplete, and State led 15-0 with 4:40 left in the third period.

Wake Scores The Deacons lost their third fumble of the game, killing a drive at the State 20. But moments later they forced a Wolfpack punt and rode two straight 15-yards penalties against State into scoring range. This time, they cashed in. A 15-yard burst by Hopkins on a drive play put the ball on the three. Russell took in from there.

The Deacons went for two and got it on another remarkable play. Penalized to the eight for delay of game, Russell went back to pass and found himself in trouble. He finally spotted Hopkins, and drilled the ball to him at about the one. Hopkins was See STATE, Page 4 McNally Sanguillen reached base on error in the ninth inning. McNally, who is facetiously called Dave McLucky by Oriole teammates because they have frequently ken him off the hook aftter a slow start, needed their help again after the Pirates had given Ellis a 3-0 lead in the second inning.

Ellis Out Early But the bubble-gum chewing Ellis, who has been troubled by a sore elbow, was able to last only 2 1-3 innings before Manager Danny Murtaugh had to call for relief. Frank Robinson got the Orioles started when he led off the second inning by tagging a 1-1 pitch into the 1 left field bleachers for only his second hit in 13 postseason at-bats. Ellis, a 19-game winner during the regular season, escaped any further trouble at that stage but immediately found himself challenged The News and Observer Sports Oct. 10, 1971 Section And Want Ads The Tar Heels needed him. Tulane's defense never relaxed or let up until 6-2, 230-pound Frank Johnson engulfed Miller on the game's last play at the Green Wave 46.

By afternoon's end, Miller had figured in two Tar Heel scores (6 run, 20-yard pass to Lewis Jolley), Geof Hamlin had scored twice (6 run, 3 run), and Ken Craven had kicked a 34-yard field goal. But scoring wasn't the biggest Tar Heel problem.

Ellis proceeded to walk Powell on a 3-2 pitch, and that was all for him as Bob Moose came on in relief. Moose was the victim of Buford's first pitch homer in the fifth inning that gave let the throw get by, him. That enabled Hernandez to reach second and, after Ellis struck out, Hernandez raced home with the third run on a single by Dave Cash-the only Pirate hit of the inning. An inning later McNally was in trouble again as Roberto Clemente led off with a single and Willie Stargell followed with a walk.

But MeNally struck out Robertson and Sanguillen and got Pagan on an easy fly. And that as it turned out was the Pirates' last threat. But it was the beginning for the Orioles, who chased Ellis to a loud chorus of boos and a handkerchief-waving sendoff as they took a 1-0 lead in the competition for the 000 top prize and a second successive world championship.
