Run Burson's Field Goal Upsets Illinois, 9-7 Kick Comes with 3 Minutes Left; Wildcat Also Tosses for TD CHAMPAIGN, HI. (ff) The first field goal ever attempted by Senior Quarterback Don Burson etched a thrilling 9-7 Northwestern victory over favored Illinois before 67,872 Illini home TUCSON, Ariz. Michigan State's Spartans polished off their season by overwhelming the University of Arizona, 75 coming fans.

Burson's 22-yard payoff boot, following a 57-yard punt return by Halfback Tom Worthington, came with only three minutes left. It was the season finale for both Big Ten teams. BURSON WAS a shining hero in his last collegiate game. He also fired a second period touchdown to 0. FIRST PERIOD Arizona took the kickoff.

Starting from their own 20, the Wildcats got down to the State 40 before Chandnois intercepted a pass on the 36 to stop the drive. The Spartans then scored in nine plays with Frank Waters going over from the two-yard' line with six minutes of the game gone. A Glick pass to Gilman ate up 17 yards of the distance. G. Smith kicked the extra point.

Michigan State 7, Arizona 0. Arizona drove down to the State 38, helped by a 35-yard pass from Russell to Glazier, but Poloncak intercepted a pass and ran it back to the Spartan 43. Grandelius broke away from there to the nine-yard line. The ball was on the five when the period ended. SECOND PERIOD Waters went over on the second pass to End Joe Zuravleff to give the Wildcats a 6-0 halftime lead.

Illinois banked away for 227 yards rushing on 54 running plays, compared with Northwestern's 178 net on 47 tries. Illini drives were halted three times within Northwestern's 25, once on the Wildcat 12. NORTHWESTERN picked up 89 aerial yards on Burson's six completions in 18 attempts. It was the passing threat of the cool Wildcat quarterback which kept the Illini off balance all afternoon. After a scoreless first quarter Northwestern marched 80 yards for its touchdown in 10 plays.

It came midway in the second period on an accurate 19-yard shot from Burson to Zuravleff. The third period also was scoreless, although Halfback Don Stevens made a shoestring interception of a Burson pass and raced back to Northwestern's 25 to set up the Illinois score. THAT CAME on the second play of the fourth period when Krueger flipped a seven-yard pass to Kersulis in the end zone. Rebecca's extra point try was high and true and gave the Illini some short-lived glee. The triumph closed brightly a somewhat disappointing season for Rose Bowl champion Northwestern.

The Wildcats finished with a 3-4 conference record and 4-5 for all games.

The Gopher had to settle for third place in the Conference standings. Minnesota, a hot-and-cold team all season, had a tough time beating Wisconsin's Inspired Badgers, who held the upper hand through most of the first two periods and left the field at halftime with a 6-0 lead. BUT THE Gophers, led by a couple of fleet-footed sophomore halfbacks and a pile-driving senior fullback, took charge of the game completely in the second half for a pair of well-earned touchdowns. The crowd of 64,110 fans had touchdown.

George Hudak, sophomore left half from Chisholm, helped move the ball to the 25 then passed to Bud Hausken in the end zone. Gordie Soltau converted. Again in the fourth period it was Hudak's running and passing, coupled with some terrific bulldozing by Fullback Ken Beiersdorf, that carried Minnesota 46 yards to the Wisconsin seven from where NATIONAL LEAGUE State 10, but again stalled.
