Purdue Breaks Loose, In Wild Second Quarter BY GENE BLUDEAU SOUTH BEND fUPI) Purdue's explosive Boilermakers scored four touchdowns and a field goal in a wild second period Saturday to beat Notre Dame, 51-19, and rolr up the highest score against years. A capacity crowd of 59.235 watched the underdog Boilermakers take a 14-13 edge in the opening period. Purdue capitalized on a Notre Dame interception and halfback Bob Wiater's 78-yard touchdown sprint after a lateral from quaterback Bernie Allen. Purdue recovered two Irish fumbles in the next period and intercepted a pass from quarterback George Haffner, turn ing all the Irish misplays into cores.

MSU Charon 3 run (Brandstatter kick). BY LYALIa SMITH Fro Press Sports Editor EAST LANSING They called him Carl (Tough Luck) Charon last November when the kid fullback from up in the ski country at Boyne City broke his ankle against Purdue. But he broke more than that here on the first day of October, i In one tremendous last-ditch explosion he broke a knotted score and the heart of a gallant Michigan football team. CHARON WAS just" another Michigan State fullback when this 53rd annual battle between the Spartans and Wolverines began on a perfect football afternoon before a record-set ting throng 76,490 fans. But when he oame out of it, he was the player who had given State a 24-17 triumph over Michigan in a game that will go into the hooks as one the most sensational in the long vendetta between the two great state- universities.

It had everything. It had more than everything. It was one of collegiate football's greatest days and. if you don't believ it. lust wait about 20 years from now.

They'll still be talking about it. WITH ONE second less than three minutes before the final gun the score was tied, 17-17. The Wolverine, who had led by three points at half-time and had visions of a startling upset, had been pushed within the shadow of their own goal posts when their sophomore quarterback, Dave Glinka, was smeared on his own three-yard line. Reid Bushong stood deep in his end zone and punted a low liner out to his own 42 where halfback Don Stewart of State grabbed it and lugged it back to the Michigan 30. IT WAS Carl Charon for 13 yards.

It was Carl Charon again for four more. Then it was quarterback Tom Wilson, Spartan playmaker, on a keeper for seven more to reach the Wolverine six-yard stripe. It was Charon again to the three. And then It was Charon who put his nose to the grasstop and burrowed his 180 pounds Into the end zone for the touchdown which gave the Spartans their dramatic triumph. That a kid from the ski country ended it was poetic justice.

For it was a game with swoops and thrills, ups and downs, spills and chills. MICHIGAN, the underdog, scored the. first time it touched Turn to Page Column 4 Men in Blue Set for Series NEW YORK (UPI) The umpires for the 1960 World Series were announced Saturday by baseball commissioner Ford Frick. The umpiring staff includes Dusty Boggess, Bill Jackow-ski and Stan Landes from the National League and John Stevens, Nester Chylak and Jim Honochick of the American League. 42 Bob Eickhoff's second pass of the game and scampered 38 yards for a TD.

THEREAFTER. Larry Ferguson, who had a 58-yard touchdown run caned back, pulled down a pass from Fred Quinn and returned 70 yards to score; rookie Sammy Harris rambled 53 yardj for another touchdown; and Wilburn Hollis ran eight yards for one score and passed to Bill Perkins for nine for another. It was a humiliating defeat for Northwestern, sixth ranked in the nation compared to eighth for Iowa, before the game. The Wildcats had to play without their No. 1 quarterback, Dick Thornton, out with a muscle injury in his leg.

But it was doubtful that Thornton could have made a difference. Iowa's linemen controlled the Northwestern forwards constantly. Even the Hawkeye reserves, who saw plenty of action, usually contained Northwestern's attack. COACH Ara Parseghian of Northwestern used Eickhoff and Quinn to call signals, but the Wildcats moved only when Quinn, a sophomore, was in the game. And their attack under him wasn't consistent.

Northwestern gained only 65 yards rushing and 147 with Quinn accounting for 133 of this total. Iowa's crunching attack powered for S03 yards on the ground and the Hawkeyes attempted only eight passes, completing four for 80 yards. Each team had two passes intercepted, but Northwestern couldn't gain with its thefts. Northwestern made only one serious threat, advancing to the Iowa 14 in the third period. Otherwise the Wildcats got across midfield only four times.

U-D's line, led by co-captiain Tony Asher, was in on Costello constantly whether he tried to throw from a- nonexistent pocket or on the rollout. His lone completion in nine tries in the first half was good for 11 yards and then it was a shovel pass. LUSKY COOLY RAN the Titans to their first decision of the season in two starts and maintained U-D's perfect record against Xavier five games and rive triumphs.

Wiater's 78-yard run was the longest of the game, but Bob Scarpitto broke loose on a 64-yard touchdown sprint for Notre Dame's first touchdown. A 24-yard pas from An-gelo Dabiero counted for another first-period Irish score, and Daryle Lamonica scored Turn to Page 2, Column 2 ing twice after an interception and fumble recovery.

Xavier didn't score until the fourth period. COSTELLO had little time to exhibit the passing talents that gained more than 1,000 yards for the Muskies last fall and helped them to a 1-1 record going into this game. Costello threw 27 times but gained only 82 yards on 11 com pletions and he had three picked off by U-D defenders. Xavier, crippled by injuries to linemen, could hardly diversify with a ground attack.

Syracuse spotted Kansas a 7-0 lead in the first three minutes, then roared back to score on a 10-yard pass from quarterback Dave Sarette to Ken Ericson in the third period, and on a one-yar drun by halfback Ernie Davis in the fourth quarter. The victory ran Syracuse's undefeated string to 19 games. KANSAS CASHED in on a Syracuse fumble to score its touchdown.
