Irish Handed First Loss Os Year Saturday CHICAGO (INS) — Michigan State's 21 to 7 upset triumph over previously unbeaten and unscored upon Notre Dame and Wisconsin's loss to Southern California left Midwest college football fans with only one undefeated team today — Michigan’s Wolverines. y Michigan State's victory snapped an 11-game Notre Dame win streak. The last time the Irish had lost a game was on Oct. 2, 1954, when Purdue beat them, 27 to 14. Michigan State won over Notre Dame because it flashed a superior running attack and an almost airtight defense. Three power-house Spartan backs — Gerald Planutls, Walt Kowalczyk and Clarence Peaks — slashed through holes in the Irish line and when they were stopped occasionally, quarterback Earl Morall went to the air effectively to bomb the Notre Dame defenses. Dame definitely was not “up” for the key contest. Irish tackling and blocking looked ragged and the pass defense was poor. Notre Dame Coach Terry Brennan faces a major problem in rallying his squad for Saturday's upcoming contest with Purdue and the Boilermakers' ace passer, Len Dawson. Dawson, who b»s been handicapped by a fractured thumb on his throwing hand, celebrated his return to efficiency against lowa by hurling three touchdown passes — the last in the final four seconds of play which enabled Purdue to tie the Hawkeyes, 20 to 20. Coach Duffy Daugherty's Michigan Staters take on a Big Ten opponent in Illinois at East Lansing. Michigan, obviously suffering from a letdown following its victory over Army, was held to a 14 to 2 score by Northwestern. A remarkable running 62-yard punt by Tony Branoff in the last quarter helped the Wolverine salvage the game. They were leading only 7 to 2 at the time and the kick near “ Michigan's goal line sent the ball to Northwestern's 28-yard line. Some minutes later. Michigan's Terry Barr broW •kUte* bn a 46yard touchdown mtn to clinch the verdict for the Colverines — the number one team in the country. Michigan's next foe is Minnesota at Minneapolis. Wisconsin, previously unbeaten, wiss-j? lipped. 33 to 21. by a second half attack staged By Southern California. The Badgers probably were weakened by the loss through injury of quarterback Jim Miller, but Wisconsin Coach Ivy William son offered no alibis. Next foe for the Badgers is Big

Topsyturvy Pro Mall Race Continues New- York (INS) - The only consistent thing about the National Football League race is its inconsistency. They’re still knocking each other off with no respect for class or tradition.

Northwestern nugni have staged the upset of the day but for a fatal ease of fumblitis. A Wildcat fumble on their IB.set up the first Michigan scoie by fullback Earl Johnson and another bobble set up a 48yard TD run by tailback Terry Barr. - Northwestern outplayed Michigan most of the second half and held the Wolves id five first downs and 146 yards rushing all day. The 'Cats trapped wingback Tony Branoff in the end sone for" a safety in the second quarter and almost repeated the trick in the third. The big attraction, however, was Michigan State's victory over previously unbeaten, untied and unscored upon Notre Dame before 5(2,007 ringsiders at East Lansing and a nationwide television audience. The loss was the first for the favored Irish in 12 games, dating back to their 274.044 setback against Purdue last October.

Maryland chalked up its fourth straight win, 27 to 7, at North Carolina as halfback Ed Vereb ran for three tounchdowns and passed for a fourth. Oklahoma extended the nation's longest winning streak to 23 by outclassing Kansas, 44 to 6. Tommy McDonald chalked up his sixth and seventh touchdowns of the year. UCLA ran up three touchdowns in the first period and then had to fight desperately to pull out a 31-
t 043 win over Stanford. Navy had its unsullied goal line crossed while belting Penn State, 34 to 14. While the Middies bottled up Lenny Moore for only 37 yards, his lowest gain In two years, George Welsh took to the air for 16 pass completions and 285 yards, a new Navy record. Duke, trailing by 14 points, rallied to upset Ohio State, 20 to 14, with quarterback Sonny Jurgensen ramming from the five with the winning touchdown in the last quarter. Conversions by fullback Joe Childress proved the difference as Auburn kayoed Georgia Tech, 14 to 12. Southern Cal dropped Wisconsin out of the running Friday night, 33 to 31, and unbeaten West Virginia cracked the select circle by beating William & Mary. 39 to 13.
