season Tracy netted 192 yards on 14 carries He also made two conversions and turned in a fine defensive performance The Vols looking sharper than they had in three previous home appearances grabbed a 19-7 first half lead on Tracy's 43-yarder an 80-yard punt return by Tailback Bobby Brengle and Tom Goar's 16-yard pass to Halfback Terry Sweeney The Tar Heels who picked up their first six-pointer in

163 and on the touchdown advances he seemed to be the fellow who made the vital yardage Vann pitching to HoIIeder most of the time added 137 aerial yards for the Cadets HoIIeder was equally as big on defense as he was on offense He has been called one of the nation's finest ends and nothing Virginia saw today made anyone think otherwise The Cavaliers used variations of an eight man line Polzer who had to retire once with an injured hip Tucker McLoughlin Joe May and Jim St Clair all made critical saves at times Virginia tackling was sharp the best it has been all season' But of course the Cavaliers haven't played a better game This one was a thriller all the way as first the crowd waited for Army to unleash its knockout punch and then waited although maybe not believing what It was seeing for Virginia to complete the Cinderella story One thing for certain Virginia never was overcome by jitters and never looked better once initial charge had been blunted as if it have a chance to take it all The rain which didn't let up until late in the second quarter may have helped stall attack Ball handling was difficult but then Virginia was playing with the same handicap and looking smart on attack at times Hartwell was the big man for the Cavaliers the guy who got the important yardage against the six man line Army employed most of the way He logged 93 in 23 tries for a four per try average and never quit driving until be had been hit at least three or four times Hartwell gained nearly half of the 189 yards Virginia made on the ground He had most of his success at the flanks as Virginia gave up almost completely at trying for yardage at the middle -Army smashed to 292 yards on the ground most of it it Continued from First Sports Page The first time Army had possession it moved to the one where HoIIeder fumbled after catching a pass from Vann Army presently recovered a fumble on its 45 and from there drove to its first touchdown Two passes from Vann to HoIIeder ate up 22 yards and nullified a clipping penalty and Uebcl eventually scored from the nine by running over Baily and Andy Niedbala Chesnaukas kicked th: extra point Virginia stiffened after and late in the second quarter after Tom Berry had thrown Vann for a six yard loss to the nine the Cavaliers got the trig break which may have stiffened their resistance Osier started at left tackle was hit by Carlton Schel-horn and the ball popped into hands Strempek looked surprised but only for a moment He then started for the goal line lading two Army taeklers on the way Stan Knowles muffed his second
