On two other occasions he topped the 100 figure in yafjlage, 113 yards in the Auburn g9l4e and 112 yards in the Concordia encounter. The senior fullback also reeled off the longest run of tho season, . an 85-yarder off thckle against Kendallville.

Upsets Mark Big Ten Play On Saturday CHICAGO (UPDMost Big Ten football mentors praised their own teams and opponents alike today following a weekend of upsets and near surprises. No one could doubt coach Pete Elliott when he said his Illinois squad which startled Purdue, 1410 played its best game all year. The Illini whipped the Boilermakers, favored to win by 26 points, and snapped a 15 - game losing streak, longest in Big Ten football history. At lowa City, where coach Jerry Burns has swung in effigy, the Hawks upset Ohio State, 28-14. lowa kept its “floater offense” on the ground and scored three touchdowns in the first half. Burns credited his team with “out-woodying Woody K. Hayes,” the Buckeye coach. Northwestern won an uphill battle -26-21, over underdog Indi-" ana, and Wildcat Coach Ara Parseghian was proud of his topranked team. “You’ve got to give pur kids a lot of credit,” Parseghian said. “They had to come from behind twice and they did it on things we hadn’t been doing.” “I certainly don’t think we were down,” he said. “No team that gains 504 yards and 26 first downs could be.” Parseghian conceded that “Indiana is a very good team and played us 60 solid minutes.” Hoosier coach Phil Dickens thought so too. “If the kids ever deserved to win, this was it,” he said. Dickens said his strategy was to double-team Paul Flatley, the Wildcats’ flanker back, and it worked well until quarterback Tom Meyers began connecting with other receivers. In another surprise, Minnesota, a 10-point underdog, relied on its stout defense to slow down Michigan State, owners of the nation’s top rushing offense. The Gophers, who boast the nation’s best defense, permitted the Spartans only 30 yards rushing to win 28-7. Wisconsin ground down Michigan 34-12, enabling the Badgers to vault to a second-place tie with Minnesota in the conference standings, both with 3-1 records. At the top of the heap is undefeated Northwestern. The Badgers will get a chance to tie for the first position Saturday. They entertain Northwestern, while Minnesota, which could also move up, is at home to lowa. The Hawkeyes and Illinois played “inspired” football according to two people who should know, Hayes and Purdue coach Jack Mollenkopf. Hayes said lowa was the best team encountered all season by the Buckeyes, who also met Northwestern. “The biggest surprise was that they made no mistakes,” he added.

Mrs. John McGraw lift Dies Sunday NignF NEW YORK (UPD—Mrs. John McGraw, 81, a goodwill ambassador for baseball since the death of her famed husband, John J. McGraw in 1934, died in St. Vincent’s Hospital Sunday night. Remarkably vigorous for her age until recently, the “first lady” of baseball died at about 10:40 p.m. after being in a coma for 48 hours. She had suffered a stroke on Friday and never regained consciousness. Eddie Brannic, secretary of the Giants and a friend of the McGraw family for 50 years, said funeral arrangements will be announced this morning. Mrs. McGraw was a Roman Catholic. McGraw, a member of baseball’s Hall of Fame who built the Giants into a National League power and whose integrity helped to establish major league baseball as the national pastime, died on Feb. 25, 1934. Mrs. McGraw carried on vigorously during the last 28 years as a symbol of the principles for which her husband stood and was a familiar figure at opening days, old timers days and other special baseball promotions.

Denver Beats San Diego To Regain Lead UPI Sports Writer The Denver Broncos, who already have won as many games this year as they did in their two previous seasons, are back in first place in the American Football League’s Western Division today as they continue to turn the tables on their former tormentors. Denver took another step toward squaring accounts with the once-fearsome San Diego Chargers Sunday by beating the twotime Western Division champions, 23-20. The victory put the Broncos back on top in their division as the Dallas Texans lost to Houston, 14-6. The New York Titans handed the Oakland Raiders their eighth straight loss, 31-21, in the only other AFL game played Sunday. On Saturday night, the Eastern Division leading Boston Patriots were held to a 28-28 tie by the last place Buffalo Bills. Seventh Bronco Win Halfback Don Stone scored all three touchdowns for the Broncos, who registered their seventh victory in nine games. Last year Denver could do no better than a 3-11 record and in 1960 the Broncos won but four games. It also marked the second triumph for Denver over the Chargers this season after dropping all four contests in previous years between the clubs. Denver was trailing, 20-14, entering the final quarter when Stone caught a 13-yard pass from ! quarterback Frank Tripucka for the tying touchdown. Gene Mingo . added the extra point to put the I Broncos ahead and they gained! their final two points on a safety. ' Stone also scored on runs of one and five yards earlier in the' game. Two Quick Touchdowns San Diego quarterback John Hadi passed for two touchdowns within 27 seconds to help the Chargers to a 17-7 halftime lead. One of the scoring pldys was a 72-yard toss to Jerry Robinson. Houston, which twice has won the AFL championship, moved to within a half game of first place Boston and at the same time avenged last week’s embarrassing 31-7 loss to the Texans. George Blanda connected with Billy Cannon for both Oiler touchdowns, one on a six-yard pass and the other on a 34-yard toss. . The Texans, who were held to their lowest score ever, averted a shutout with little more than a minute to plav when Chris Burford tock a 15-yard scoring pass from Len Dawson. Dawson, the league’s leading passer, completed 19 of 30 attempts for 208 yards but often Was forced to hurry his throws and didn’t do much damage against a tough Oiler defense. Oakland Remains Winless Johnny Green threw a 34-yard scoring pass to Don Maynard and added the decisive touchdown himself with a one-yard plunge in the final period to pave the way for the Titans’ second straight victory. Oakland, which has yet to win this season, twice led in the game but was unable to hold on against a determined New York offense. Boston had to overcome a 14point deficit to earn its tie with the Bills. Vito (Babe) Parilli
