Even after Kenney barefooted another field goal that made it 20-13 with 2:58 remaining, there was no celebration, no relaxation for the crowd of 75,280. The Hoosiers still had beleagured Frank Stavroff throwing passes, and that was cause for concern. BUT WITH 81 seconds remaining, Detroiter Harold Lucas used his 586-pound bulk to deflect what was to be the final Stavroff pass. Linebacker Charles (Big Dog) Thornhill intercepted at midfield and returned to the Indiana 11, and State found time for three plays.

The third was Juday's last touchdown connection to Washington, thi3 one a four-yarder that the Texas-raised end grasped falling over the sideline in the end zone. The three scoring passes by the senior quarterback from Xorthville were the most ever for a Spartan BY BOB PILLE Fr PrM Sports Writer EAST LANSING Michigan State's oft-overlooked passing game was pulled from the shadows to rally the Spartans from the edge of dream-shattering defeat Saturday. It took three touchdown passes from quarterback Steve Juday to end Gene Washington to beat Indiana, 27-13, in a game that wasn't supposed to be a worry. The Rose Bowl-bound Spartans got everything expected from the wind-blown thriller the victory, their first unshared Big Ten championship and a 9-0 record to risk along with their No. 1 ranking next Saturday at Notre Dame.

THE SPARTANS ALSO GOT more than expected almost too much from Indiana. The Hoosiers, underdogs by 25 points, clutched at the upset of the season with a 13-10 lead going into the last quarter. They hammered out touchdown drives just before and just after halftime after the Spartans had jumped ahead, 10-0, in the opening 182 minutes on the first Free Press Photo Dog-gone good run has stadium guard up in air at MSU-Indiana game. Defense fell flat. One Play All the Way: Juday to Washington for 3 TDs thrower in a Big Ten gam.

So were Washington's thre touchdown catches. If the decision, leaving Indiana with a 2-7 record, wasn't the easy time MSU loyalists figured, maybe it was just as well. This way, the Spartans won with the class of champions, won as champions should. THEY WON while perhaps unconsciously thinkinga week ahead to Notre Dame. (The Irish must have done the same, going scoreless into tile fourth, period before disposing of North Carolina, 17-0.) They won coming from behind after Indiana had hit them with unexpected defensive fury and a revised offense.

John Pont, the first year Hoosier coach, opened his attacking formations, making a flanker of split end Bill Malin-chak, an excellent pass catcher, and putting sophomore Bill Couch in Malinchak's place at split end. It worked for 173 aerial yards, with the 6-5 Couch catching with the brilliance of MalLnchak in his first collegiate game. There was a great grab by Malinchak for a 45-yard gain, then 10-yard pass that Stavroff drilled to Malinchak for the touchdown as the Hoosiers went 79 yards in seven plays in the three minutes of the first half.

Fullback Bob McKelvey, a Wildcat turned tiger, mangled the Wolverine defense for 136 yards in 35 carries, scored twice and supplied the ball control that spelled Michigan's downfall. Northwestern was a 10-point underdog, but used the victory to hurdle Michigan into a spot in the Big Ten's first division. THE LOSS let the air out of U-M's late-season balloon, snapping a two-game winning streak and dropping the Wolverines under .500 at 4-5. Despite the wind, it was an offensive show all the way. Northwestern spotted Michigan a 7-0 lead before finding a leak in the Dyche, then the touchdowns poured through-The Wildcats scored four times in the second and third periods to win breezing, naturally.

Michigan had the wind advantage in the first and third periods, but spent much of both quarters without the ball.
