Herald and Newt Sportt Editor
Neither ruin, nor snow, nor the
Pelican defense could stop the
Springfield offense Friday night at
Modoc Field when they handed
Klamath Falls its worst defeat of
the season. 31-0.
The Millers took to the sloshy
field like ducks, picking their foot
ing very w e 11 to run through,
around and over the KUHS de
fense, chalking up runs of 69. 56
and 17 yards for scores and pass

two touchdowns
The Pel offense proved to be
no stronger than the defense, gain
ing a total of only 41 yards net.

Nations Top Five Grid Teams
Roar To Wins, Navy Dropped
By ED CORRIGAN
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
The top five college football
teams in the nation roared to ex
pected victories Saturday, but
Navy, No. 6. fell and thereby
threw the scramble for Eastern
supremacy into a jigsaw puzzle
that might not work itself out until
the waning days of the season.
Oklahoma, the No. 1 muscle out
fit of the country won its 42nd
straight game, crushing Iowa
State, 40-14, in a Big Eight game.
The only factor that led to any
doubt as to the final outcome was
an outbreak of the flu among the
Oklahoma players.
No fewer than 15 have been
stricken over the past two weeks.
and the Sooners were wobbly. But
their depth was too much for Iowa
State. Still, it marked a moral
victory for the losers, who had
net been able to score on Oklaho
ma since 1951.
Michigan State. No. 2 behind
Oklahoma, topped weak Califor
nia, 19-0 in the NCAA nationally
.televised game. Minnesota, third
team in this week's Associated
; Press poll, had a tough time of it,
but got past Purdue, 21-17 with
Dick Larson scoring twice and
passing lor anotner loucnaown.
Fourth-ranked Duke, looking
more and more like the logical
Atlantic Coast Conference cham
pion, trampled Maryland, 14-0, for
its third straight league triumph.
Texas A&M, No. 5. raced past
i Missouri, 28-0, for the Aggies' 13th
(victory in a row.
But Navy, No. 6, stubbed its toe,
'and therein lies the complications.
North Carolina handed the Mid
dies a 13-7 beating. Navy had
! high hopes of finishing the season
las the mythical Eastern cham
pion. Now things don't look so cer
tain and the title may not be de
cided until the Army-Navy game
ion Nov. 30. The Cadets polished
off Penn State, another pretender
to the crown. 27-13. and projected i
themselves squarely into the fight
for Eastern honors. Army also
Buckeyes Blast Washington
In Second Half For Victory
SEATTLE, Oct. 6 i.T) A weav
ing 81-yard punt return by Dom
Sutherin cracked a 7-7 deadlock
early in the second half Saturday
and opened the touchdown door
for Ohio State's 35-7 intersectional
football victory over Washington.
Washington had tallied first,
driving 87 yards in 17 plays in
the second period to give hopes
to the crowd of 37.500 for a Wash
ington victory. The burly Buck
eyes, hampered by penalties,
bounced back to tie it up at 7-7
before the half was over. The
chance came when Ohio end
James Huston pounced on a Wash
ington fumble at the host team's
seven. The Buckeyes tallied in
three plays and went out for re
cess sharing a 7-7 tie.
The second half was just a min
ute and 50 seconds old when Suth
erin pulled off his decisive gallop.
He caught the punt on his own
19,! faked a handoff to Dick Le
Beau, and took off on his twist
ing canter through Washington's
badly-fooled detenders.
Inside of six minutes the Buck
eyes had their third counter, this

and again they missed tackles and
blocks.
- Coach Andy Knudsen said he was
very, very displeased with the
KUHS performance nnd said that
it was not the wet field and not
the bigness of Springfield that beat
them.
He said that the boys just did
not play ball and that during the
coming week there will be at least
five offensive changes in the Pel
lineup.
Knudsen said that all but one
of the Millers long scoring jaunts
should not have gone all tne way.
He said that the team had prac
ticed all week and knew what to
expect and that on every long
run the Pelican defense made plen
ty of mistakes and did not show
the hard tackling and hustle they
had displayed in their previous
games.
The Pelican offense could not
get rolling in the first half, picking
up only one first down and gain
ing only 8 yards net In the first
half.
The first KU scoring opportun
ity came early after the opening
kickoff, when they recovered a
Miller fumble on the Springfield
27-yard line, but drive was short
lived when Spnngtield Intercepted
an Ankcny pass on their own 24,
which set up the Millers first
score,
Fullback Dean CnmpbeU scooted
around his own right end up to
the 36, but on the next play Spring
field was offside, moving the ball
back to their own 31-yard line.
Halfback Bob Willis took a hand-
off from quarterback Mike CheU
wood, whose beautiful bait nan
dling sucked the entire KU team
over to the right side, and went
over left tackle, got behind the
Pelican defense, then cut back to
the west sideline picking up his
blockers and went 69 yards for
the score, with two and a half
minutes gone in the first quarter.
Willis' try from placement was not
good.
In the final minutes of the first
quarter, halfback Jerry II a u g e n
took Dick Humphrey's punt on the
Miller 44-yard line, stopped in his
tracks, jumped up and down a
couple of times, throwing the Pel
defenders off balance, then cut to
the east sideline picking :ip block-
phrey took the kick on his own
12-yarrt line and carried back to
the 20. On the first play from '
scrimmage quarterback Tom Ank-'
cny was rushed hard by the Mil
ler defensive wall and fumbled,
with Springfield recovering on the
17-yard line.
On Spnngtield s first play from
scrimmage Jerry Haugen scam-
pered around his own left end for .
the score. Willis' pass to end Wal-
ly Knecht for the extra point was
incomplete. ,
During the first half the Pell-
cans were able to possess the ball
on offense six times, three times
in the first quarter and three in
the second quarter.
The Pels were able to throttle .
the scoring attempts of the Mil
lers in the third quarter but at
the same time they could not get 1
rolling offensively. ;
In the opening of the fourth quar
ter halfback Rick Herman took '.
Humphrey's punt on his own 36
yard line, returning to the 42. Af
ter moving the ball to the Kiam-.
ath 45-yard line in four plays,
quarterback Jim Reynolds spotted
Herman in the open on the 20, .
threw a perfect strike and Her
man went over standing up. Wil-
lis' pass to Herman was complete
for the extra point. -
