Burley Bob Apisa, star sophomore fullback from Hawaii, lead the way and No. 1 ranked Michigan State crushed North western, 49-7, Saturday after allowing an early Wildcat touchdown. Northwestern shockeda homecoming crowd of 74,215 by jumping ahead with a 7-0 lead on its first series of plays in the opening period.

State kept piling on scores in the second half for the largest MSU win margin this season. The rout left Michigan State the only unbeaten Big Ten team and still the runaway front runner in its bid for the conference title and a Rose Bowl bid. It was the 70th win in his career as MSU head coach for Duffy Daugherty, who last I took the Spartans to the Pasadena trip in 1955. The Northwestern early counter came on a freakish play. Sophomore quarterback Dennis Booth fumbled Larry Gates pounced on the loose ball in the end zone for the touchdown.

Michigan State, which has been featuring second half comebacks this season, decid- ed not to waste time in correcting the situation. The Spartans took command of the game by powering 57 yards for their first score. 85 yards for the second and 44 yards for the third. Michigan State had been a 20-point favorite going into the game. To make the odds-mak- I ers feel better, the Spartan Juggernaut ground 80 yards the first time MSU got the ball in the third period with Apisa again doing the scoring honors.

Jim Summers made a pass interception to help State keep its scoring momentum in the same period. Quarterback Steve Juday flipped a 10-yard end zone pass to Jones to build up the MSU lead to 35-7. Left half Dwight Lee. also got into the scoring act before the third period ended. His TD coming after a 44-yard push to make it 42-7.

Barefoot kicker Dick Kenney also from Hawaii, hit on five for five in extra point tries.
