Using two screen passes from sophomore Bob Thomas to Tom Whiteside on critical third down situations fora couple of 12-yard gains and utilizing some hard running by Thomas and PetrocceUi, the Vikings kept the ball for 16 plays in storming to go-ahead touchdown. After Leo Ingolia converted with 14:34 left it look too good for Wesleyan which had only one first down at that point in the second half. But on its second possession after the touchdown by Missouri Valley Wesleyan got going.

Aided by a pass interference penalty which took the ball to midfield, the Plainsmen used two big plays and a handful of crunchers to get it across. BUI Rohrig hit straight ahead for 10 yards to the 40, which was inches shy of a first down. Then quarterback Dave Lebsack, faking beautifully to the fullback on the short yardage situation, rolled to his right and hit Dennis Quick with a 34-yard pass which carried to the six. Four plays later Lebsack finally dived over the center to score. This time Dave Weisbrook converted.

Seconds later, Alan Egger Tulane Hits Mississippi State, 17-15 New Orleanis iffi Bobby Duhon led lowly Tuiane to a 17-15 upset of slumping Mississippi Staite Friday night with the help of a brusing defense that muffled the usuaUy explosive running attack. The left-handed sophomore threw touchdown strikes of 36 and 26 yards and set up what turned out to be the winning field goal in the fourth quar- er with his precision passing. The victory, first in the Southeastern Conference, dimmed the title hopes of Mississippi State, which had whipped Florida in its only other league test. State 0 7 0 0 14 0 70 punt return (Neil kkdt) 36 pass from Duhon pretty much iced the thing when he intercepted a Thomas pass at the 35. Missouri Valley got the ball again with 1:07 to play and moved past midfield, but time ran out.

Wesleyan had broken up a nearly complete defensive game with four minutes left in the half when Rohrig capped a 27-yard eight-play drive with a one-yard dive. The Plainsmen got their golden opportunity when a roughness penalty was called on the Vikings on a punt re turn by Rohrig. In this drive, as was the case all evening, the big play was a Lebsack to Quick pass on a slant in pattern which carried from the 14 to the one. kick blocked by Tom Baker. Both clubs took shots at field goals, but in all cases they were wide.

Valley tried one from the 22 when a drive fizzled at the 12 in the second quarter. And Wesleyan tried once in third and again just before the end of the game when drives stalled at the nine and 14-yard lines.

Kansas State had 7-0 and 14-7 leads before falling behind 21-14 at halftime. Tom Penney unreeled the longest run of the day, an 85-yard kickoff return and then collaborated with man-mountain quarterback Frank Patrick on a 90-yard play for a touchdown. Dermis Galbraith od Storm Lake, kicked five extra points, a field goal of 38 yards and then plunged one yard for the final touchdown.

Patrick, the 6-7 quarterback from Derry, was particularly impressive. He hit 11 of 15 passes for 157 yards. A fumble got Kansas State off on the right foot. The Wildcats scored the second time they had possession by going 32 yards in eight plays with Bill Nossek passing eight yards to Arvyd Petrus for the touchdown. Tom Burns converted.

Nebraska tied it moments later by moving 75 yards in 11 plays. Dick Davis got the first of three first-half touchdowns with a four-yard blast. However, the big plays were authored by Patrick who connected on passes of 17 and 14 yards to Bob Moore and Sherwin Jarmon. Dennis Galbraith kicked and knotted it at 7-7. Kansas State needed only six plays to hop back into the lead.

Their drive, carrying 64 yards, was climaxed by Greg 19-yard run. Nebraska saw one drive thwarted on the four, but capitalized on field position to shoot 35 yards in six plays for the tying touchdown. Davis hammered over from the one. Nebraska moved Into the lead for the first time with the most impressive march of the game. Prodded by Patrick, the Huskers zoomed 99 yards in seven plays.

Tom Penney picked up 21 and Davis 36 on the march. Davis went in from the eight to account for the 21-14 halftime lead. Nebraska got off to a fine start in the second half when Penney returned the kickoff 85 to the 10. K-State held twice before Nebraska cashed in on the field position with 38- yard field goal. That upped the margin to 24-14.

The victory, seventh straight under John Melton was iced with an unusual 90-yard play early in the fourth period. Patrick ran 10 yards and then lateraled to Penney, who covered the remaining distance. Galbraith, a kicking hero, came in to ramrod closing 67-yard, 12- play drive. He rammed over from the one.
