Renfro's one yard scoring plunge. Buck Corey's 27 yard field goal and Ron Veres' Duke Wins Out Over California Durham, N.C. -lUPli- Duke's power-laden Blue Devils plow ed through Califonia with the greatest of ease Saturday and then bottled up a Golden Bear passing attack to take a 21 to 7 decision in an intersectional match before 31,000 sweating homecoming fans. The powerful Duke land at tack, led by halfbacks Billy Futrell and Mark Leg get t and fullback Mike Curtis, ground out yardage in hort chunks to score one touchdown each in the first, second and third periods. All the while, the Duke defense was demolishing the California rushing game and bottling up its passing attack with key interceptions. Interceptions California quarterback Lar ry Balliett set up the lone Bear touchdown with two good throws to end Bill Turn er, but his other aerial at tempts were baffled by inter ceptions including one in the final seconds of the second period on the Duke five. And in the final seconds of the game Balliett passed to end Ron Vaughon on the Duke five for a first down but the stubborn Duke line held on downs. Duke drove 58 yards for its first touchdown midway in the first period, then put on the steam again in the second period to bulldoze 48 yards for its second score. The final Blue Devil touch down came in the third period on a 74-yard drive. The first touchdown was the result of power running by Futrell and Lcggetl, with Lcggctt bucking over from the six. The second period drive featured the passing of quar terback Gil Garner, who set up the ball on the California 11. Then Leggett carried to the four and Curtis to the three Curtis plunged over on the next play.

The victory-starved crowr! of 20.074 roared its approval of the smashing triumph, which ended a six-game los ing streak for the Bills. It was icing on the cake as Lou Saban celebrated his 41st birthday with his first win as Buffalo coach. The Bills had lost five in a row this season as well as the final game of the 1961 cam paign. Ironically. San Diego started the Buffalo losing streak last December.

"How come no one men tions him?" inquired the dap per 72-year-old New York Mcts manager, who instantly attracted a large group of listeners as soon as he put in an appearance here. "Larsen has pitched in three of the five games, he has done real good and got ten credit for one of them but I never hear anyone mention his name," Casey continued. "Do you realize that every time he has come into the game there have been men on base and they (the Giants) haven't played too good be hind him, but he has held them (the Yankees) each time. What more can you ask from any pitcher?" Pitched Perfect Game It was under Stengel that Larsen pitched the only per fect game in World Series history when as a member of the Yankees he accomplished the feat against the Brooklyn Dodgers on Oct. 8, 1956. Casey has always had a warm spot in his heart for the "big guy." When Larsen was with the Yankees. Stengel made sure to give him all the possible rest he could use between as signments and didn't use him in relief anymore than whs absolutely necessary. Casey Defended Larsen From time to time, word would come back to Casey that Larsen was living it up after hours and Stengel would invariably reply, "Don't wor ry about him at all. he be haves a lot better than some of the other players I have on this club. For his part, the six-foot four Giant right-hander says i he will never forget Stengel. "Nobody, not even my father, ever treated me better than Casey did," Larsen says. The immediate thrill of pitching the perfect game has long since worn off, of course i although Don quips, "the nice i thing about it is that no one ' can ever beat it; the best anyone can do is tie it." Aihland EE'S Saturday World Series Game Rained Out; Today's San Francisco UPI Base ball Commissioner Ford Frick Saturday again postponed the sixth game of the World Se ries at rain-flooded Candle- lick park with the philosoph ic observation that "God put ii there and we'll have to wait until He takes it away." Five and one-half inches of rain had fallen in the ban Francisco area since Thursday in an unceasing storm and, after yesterday's second straight postponement, Frick hinted broadly that the flood ed out New York Yankees and San Francisco Giants might not even be able to go to bat today. Water Ankle Deep The weather forecast was for scattered rain through Sunday and, with water ankle deep in an outfield which re sembled a swimming pool, the commissioner explained that an adobe sub -surface made swift drainage a ptoblcm. "The outfield problem is drainage," he said, although pointing out that he would inspect the field again today before he ordered a third postponement. "It has reached a saturation point and there simply is nowhere for the water to go. We need sun and wind to evaporate the water." While this was the wor;t October rain in San trandsui rince 1904, when the city was deluged by seven inches of water, Frick added that thine was no thought of moving the final two games elsewhere de spite the fact that a steady rain continued Saturday. UCLA Easily Rolls Over Colorado State By DICK JOYCE UPI Sports Writer Remember Joe Zcno, the old Washington R e d s k i n s' lineman? Well, his son, Larry, is gaining the headlines now for UCLA. Larry, a sophomore, led the eighth-ranked Bruins to their second straight victory Friday night, a 35-7 triumph over Colorado State Univer sity. Zcno passed 47 yards for one touchdown and ran for another as Colorado State suffered its 20th straight de feat. Zeno. whose brother. Joe Jr., is also a member of the Bruins, helped UCLA upset previously top-ranked Ohio State last Saturday 9-7. Colo rado State trailed by only 13 7 before the Bruins let loose for two touchdowns in the third period and one in the fourth. Mississippi Stale routed Tulane 35-6, and Kentucky ripped Detroit. 27-8. in Fri day night's other major games. Charlie Furlow tossed two touchdown passes and Ode Burrcll ran 90 yards for another in leading the Bull dogs. Perky Bryant's three TD's paced Kentucky. The loss was the fourth of the season for Detroit. College Of So. Utah Dumps Carbon College Cedar City.

Rain was falling and water was ankle deep in most spins when Frick announced the postponement - (UPI) "After all, we have a prece dent," he said. "The 1911 se ries was rained out six straight days and took a total of 13 days to finish." This scries, because of a one-day New York postpone ment and two days in San Francisco, today will enter i!s Uth day. On the baseball side with the Yankees needing only on game to close 't out and the Gisnto hoping to win the "if and when" sixth game and send it into a seventh game finale both managers wuio getting more and more per turbed about the pioyers los ing their edge.

Both felt the delay would benefit Ihe Giants. "The extra days of rest have to help Pierce, ' Jansen said. "Then, too, it means that when we win the sixth game, we will be able to cmie back with Jack Sanford." Bowman, the jovial GUnU trainer, said the delay would be beneficial to several Urea end bruised San Franciscj players who went through an arduous 162 - game schedule and , a three-game nlayoit against the Los Angeles Duclg ers prior to the Scries. I Houk fretted about "too many off days tor hitters who haven't been hitting anyhow." "It's bad wncn fney can't face some pitching for two or three days," I-Iouk said. 'I with we could find a iieiri some place w'icre we could work out, not indoors, but a place where we could w:ar spikes." He added that if the Series were extended iO seven games, he would have Bill Stafford and Ralph Terry ready to pilch. "Terry could be tne choice," he said. Moravian 17, Penn Military 3 Drexel 17.
