“They’re off,” cried Robert Harvey, track coach at DePauw, and believe me they were. Fifteen fraternities comprising 170 runners competed in the third annual Pumpkin Pie Classic. If a runner completed the two and one half mile

course around Blackstock Stadium, he was rewarded with a pumpkin pie. Surprisingly, approximately 75 per cent finished. Banner Photo—Don Whitehead

Second Half Rally Tames DePauw Tigers

DePauw played the perfect homecoming guest Saturday in wind buffeted Muncie where Ball State came from behind to win 30-15. The game, played in a howling, cold wind, drew 12,600 nevertheless, and it was a State and ICC attendance record. The Tigers, good sports that they have become, jogged out from 15-14 late in the third quarter, then gave up a fumble 10 yards from State’s goal line and blew away a final chance on an interception that set up State’s needless fourth TD. It was the second consecutive game the Tigers have made statistical mincemeat of superior ICC enemies only to knuckle under because of a rash of misfortunes, self-inflicted and otherwise. Coach Tom Mont used Eric Lortz most qf the afternoon at the DePauw helm. Lortz rewarded him by moving his club over and through a much bigger State team on eight of 10 series. DePauw was forced to punt only twice, both times in the first half. The final error or misfortune that seemed to do the Tigers in came with 12:20 left in the game. State had just jumped marching 62 yards to erase a back out front 22-15 after 15-14 DePauw edge that lasted four minutes. After State’s go-ahead TD DePauw took the kickoff at its own 36 and started to crank out the yardage. John Butler’s seven yard pickup moved the ball to State’s seven where the Tigers had fourth and one. Lortz took the snap and flipped put to Butler who started around left end. But Butler and the ball never did make connections. By the time the little halfback cornered it on the 10 he was smothered by a flock of Cards That stopped DePauw from possibly making it 21-22, with the option then open qf going for one or a two point conversion. State kept the ball for four plays, finally punting. The Tigers got back in business again on their own 26 with 8:59 left. They moved to the 50, but John Hostrawser intercepted Lortz pass on the State 39 and returned it 22 yards. Four plays later Amos Van Pelt, the ICC’s leading rusher, scored on a 28yard dash around left end. A PAT rim accounted for the final score. Despite the fortunes of the game by this time the Tigers still had some fire left. The game ended with the visitors on the State seven yard line. Four of the five touchdowns scored by the twq teams’ offensive units came when the scoring team had a 30-40 mile an hour wind at its back. This ill wind led directly to DePauw’s first predicament in the first period. Dick Lester's wind-carried punt put DePauw deep in its own territory on its own fiveyard line with 8:48 left in the initial quarter. Unable to move but eight yards in three plays, DePauw was forced to punt. Lortz got his foot well into the ball on a high kick. The pigskin climbed, right into the gale. By the time the ball passed over the Tiger 30 it had lost its momentum. It plopped straight down and was ruled dead at the 30—a 13-yard punt. Seven plays later Van Pelt had the first TD of the game. He ran the extra point for two more for an 8-0 lead with 5:54 left

in the first quarter. DePauw came right back on the very next series. Shaking off John Butler’s momentary fumble of the kickoff, the Tigers marched down the field in 14 plays in their best offensive show of the year. Big gainers in the flawless 85-yard drive were 18, 14 and 12 yard rushes by Butler, Lortz and Tony Whittlesey. It was Whittlesey who got the six points by diving over the middle where DePauw had good luck all day. On Tim Feemster’s fake kick, Dan Breckenridge, the would - be holder, picked up the ball and hot footed into the endzone for the tying points with 13:14 left in the second quarter. The single key break that came DePauw’s way in the game came on the very next series. On an attempted run on fourth and one State’s quarterback Frank Hquk was dropped for a three yard loss by Tiger llinebacker Bill Scaife. Houk fumbled when he was brought down. Scaife grabbed the boll and darted to the Card S3. Three plays later, though, DePauw returned the favor by throwing the ball into the hands of Cardinal linebacker John Stem at the State 23. It appeared the half was to end with an 8-8 deadlock when DePauw decided to kick from its 18 with 66 seconds left and a strong wind it its back. The center pass on the attempted punt came back low to Lortz who was standing on his goal line. Seeing the red men converging on him, Lortz tried to pick up the careening ball and run it out of the end zone. But he never got it under control. A mad scramble ensued and finally, back deep in the right side on the endzone, State’s defensive guard Bob Coatie fell on it for a State TD. The extra point run failed, but DePauw

went to the dressing room dejectedly and needlessly trailing, 14-8 at halftime. Fifteen minutes later the Tigers appeared to have shaken off those bad moments late in the second period. They forced State to punt after the second half kickoff and took over on their own 31. Four whacks at the Card line moved the ball into State territory at the 48. On the next play Lortz spotted his left end Tom Miller in the middle of the field at about the 30. Miller took the perfect strike, got a couple of big blocks on the right side and scampered jubilantly into the endzone for a 14-14 tie. Feemster’s kick sent DePauw out ahead 15-14 with 7:23 left in the third period. But State, the ICC’s leading offensive team, bounced right back. It went 62 yards in eight plays tq go out ahead again, 20-15. DePauw stopped Van Pelt’s run for two, but an official detected the Tigers illegal procedure. Next time the Cards tried it George Hathaway made it and the score read 22-15 with 3:22 left in the third quarter. Eric Lortz led DePauw rushers with 94 yards in 23 carries. Butler had 68 in 10 and Whittlesey added 30 in eight. Van Pelt had 62 in 15 tries. The Tigers out first downed State, 19-15, and took the conference leaders in total offense, 334 yards to 262. State won rushing, 218 to 208. DePauw, hitting eight of 19 passes won the passing statistics, 126 yards to

44.
