Monroe Morning World Sunday, Nor. 13, 1966 3-C Irish Rout Started Out Innocently SOUTH BEND, Ind. (UPI) It ill started out innocently enough. There was Nick Eddy, a Dame halfback sprinting 77 yards for a touchdown on the second play of the game. But Irish backs have done that type of thing before during First downs Rushing yardage Rawing vardagt Passes Passes Intercepted by Punts Fumbles lost Duka N.D.ame IS 13 102 13-21 1 2 Yards penalized 17 271 147 t-l( 4 1-44 1 20 the current season.

And the team winds up winning like 21-7 or 31-0. uninterrupted romp through scattered and apparently bewildered goal line defenders was only the beginning of a long afternoon. Later on, it began to look like cross-country runners crossing the finish line, the touchdowns were so barely spaced. When it was over, there was some wonder among the crowd of 59.075 how Duke ever got on the schedule. There was no wonder about Notre losing its No.

(AP Wire- photo) Clay Defends Title For 5tlx Time In Year Spurrier Tops Marks, Pushes Gators To Win Over Greenies HOUSTON Clay, the busiest heavyweight champ since Joe Louis, will make his fifth title defense of 1966 Monday night in the Astro dome against 33-year-old Cleveland Williams, a fearsome puncher in his younger days but now a 5-1 underdog. The 15-round match, scheduled for 10:30 p.m. EST, will be carried on network (Mutual) radio and closed circuit television (Main Bout Inc.) to some 125 locations with 500,000 seats in 111 cities.

It also will be beamed to England on the Early Bird satellite and to 42 nations by film. Promoter Earl Gilliam expects a crowd of close to 50,000 for the first title fight ip the big dome with tickets scaled from $50 to $5. There has been talk of a $1 million gate and it appears the show may set records for an indoor fight. The old marks are 23,306 in Madison Square Garden Jan. 17, 1941 for Henry Armstrong-Fritzie Zivic and the $422,908 in Chicago for the second Tony Zale-Rocky Graziano bout in 1947.

Williams is lucky to be alive, let alone fighting for the heavyweight title. Doctors battled for weeks to save his life after he be sure if he still packs the punch that gave him his 65-5-1 record with 51 knockouts. He has been stopped three times, once by Bob Satterfield and twice by Sonny Liston. Clay, 24, still appealing his draft reclassification to 1-A and now asking deferment as a Muslim minister, has been fighting in foreign lands because he has not been welcome in many areas. His defenses this year have been made in Toronto, London (two) and Frankfurt, Germany.

This will be his first bout in the United States since he stopped Floyd Patterson in 12 rounds last Nov. 22 in Las Vegas. TTie champion, sometimes subdued and, at other times, reciting his the routine, went 15 rounds with George Chuvalo in Toronto March 29 without knocking the Canadian off his feet.
