Minnesota And lowa To Clash Next Saturday By GARY KALE United Press International A three-ply issue may be at stake when lowa and Minnesota clash Saturday — the national collegiate football championship, the Big Ten Conference title and a possible trip to the Rose Bowl. The top-ranked Hawkeyes and the No. 4 Gophers have come down to their most important game this season with identical 6-0 records. lowa holds a slim conference lead over Minnesota, having beaten league foes in four encounters. The Gophers have won all three of their circuit clashes. Both prepped for this “turning” game by beating teams from Kansas during the weekend. lowa, usitag a strong ground attack, toppled the University of Kansas, 21-7, as quarterback Wilburn Hollis went over for two touchdowns. Fourth-string fullback Jerry Jones and quarterback Larry Johnson each scored twice in Minnesota’s 48-7 pasting of Kansas State. Ties Rebels Navy and Missouri were the only other teams in the top 10 ratings to retain perfect status as Mississippi was held to a 6-6 tie by LSU and Syracuse and Baylor went down to defeat. The fifth-ranked Middies nipped Notre Dame, 14-7, on Bullet Joe Bellino’s two touchdowns and now take on Duke as they strive for the first unbeaten and untied, season in Naval Academy football history. Missouri, No. 6. won its seventh straight and moved a step closer to the Big Eight and moved a step closer to the Big Eight Conference crown by whipping Nebraska, 28-0. The Tigers could virtually clamp the lid on the title by defeating co - leader Colorado Saturday. • Se co nd- ranked Mississippi, which narrowly beat Arkansas the previous weekend on Allen Green’s last-minute field goal, was happy to settle for a tie as Green’s magic boot was effective from the 31-ya rd line in the final six seconds.

Packers Take Over Lead In West Division By NORMAN MILLER United Press International You might call the Green Bay Packers the “Pittsburgh Pirates” of pro football. The Packers don’t often overwhelm an opponent. They chip chip away, come from behind and have a knack of coming through with toe big play. In ease you’ve forgotten, those were the tactics the Pirates used to win toe baseball world championship. The Packers, seeking their first National Football League crown since 1944, took over sole possession of first place in toe Western Division Sunday when they rallied for a 1943 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers — and right in the Pirates’ ballpark, at that. Paul Hornung chipped away with four field goals —two of 35 yards and others of 47 and 17 — to give Green Bay an early 12-0 lead before a crowd of 30,155. Bobby Layne, playing with a stillsore ’ thumb, put the Steelers ahead with touchdown passes of 37 yards to Tom Tracy and 48 yards to Buddy Dial. In Final Minute But the Packers struck back for the winning touchdown with only 63 seconds remaining. They gained possession on their own 34 by jarring the Steelers for their fifth fumble of the afternoon. Quarterback Bart Starr set up the score by passing 15 and 14 yards to Boyd Dowler and fullback Jim Taylor plunged over from toe one. This was Green Bay’s fourth victory in five games, with a big one coming up next Sunday against the defending champion Colts in Baltimore. The Colts moved up to second place by drubbing the winless Dallas Cowboys, 45-7, while the San Francisco Forty-Niners dropped the Chicago Bears into third place with a 25-7 'upset victory. The Cleveland Browns moved into a first-place tie with the idle Philadelphia Eagles in the Eastern Division by defeating the Washington Redskins, 31-10; and the St. Louis Cardinals knocked the New York Giants off the top rung with a surprise 20-13 triumph. The Los Angeles Rams scored their first victory in 14 ■ games by beating the Detroit Lions, 48-35. In the American Football League, the revived Buffalo Bills upset the Eastern Division-lead-ing Houston Oilers, 25-24. and the Dallas Texans scrambled the Western Division race by defeating toe Denver Broncos, 17-14.

In all, Unites connected on 8 of 16 passes for 270 yards before leaving the game in the second half. In sending the Cowboys down to their sixth defeat in a row, the Colts intercepted five passes.

Two of the interceptions set up 27 and 44-yard field goals by Gerry Perry. John Roach passgd'4l yards to Sonny Randle for a St. Louis TD and Stacy’s touchdown scamper with a fumble by Frank Gifford added to the Giants* wretched afternoon.

San Francisco struck for two TD’s within one minute of the second quarter and then threw up a staunch defense to beat the Bears before 55,071 on the West Coast. An 80 - yard touchdown march and a looping 32-yard TD pass from John Brodie to R.C. (Owens did the damage. Tommy Davis kicked a pair of 21-yard ; field goals and another 40-yarder (for the Forty-Niners.
