DePauw invades Indiana State after hammering Butler 30-7

DePauw’s football forces were high on Pot-tenger Saturday, steaming themselves up for an unexpectedly easy 30-7 win against Butler. The lopsided victory before a 4,300 crowd assured DePauw a second consecutive winning season and Coach Tom Mont’s fifth in 10 seasons here. It also put DePauw at 3-1 in the ICC and 5-2 for the campaign. Other than its TD, Butler got inside DePauw’s 40 only five times Saturday — twice early in the first quarter, once just before the half, and twice late in the game. It was after that second penetration to the 40 that DePauw got down to business. Defensivelinebacker Larry Horning snapped off his first interception of the year at the Tiger 35 and raced it back to the 42 with 6:37 left in the first quarter. Then, with his opening pass of the game, Pottenger calmly lifted a perfect pass to end Scott Ral. ston who was finally tackled at the Butler eight. It seemed so simple Pottenger decided to try again. This time he nailed a perfect eight-yarder on his other end Dave Moore. H e caught it for the TD with 4:15 left in the period. John Sacramento kicked the extra point and DePauw was out front, 7-0. Butler had to punt on the next series. It went for 35 yards, but Long rammed it back to the Butler 45. Holton (with his best day of the year— 70 - 17 car-

ries) and Sacramento lugged three times for a first down to the Butler 34. Enough of the hard work Pottenger decided. He sent Ralston slanting out on the left. He was “covered” by only one defender and scampered in all alone with a 34-yard reception. Sacramento’s kick upped the count to 14-0 as the first quarter ended. Butler quickly aroused itself. The league’s most precise passer, Dick Reed, who has been hitting at a .611 clip, moved the Bulldogs 66 yards in 11 plays. A Tiger piling on penalty, however, was the biggest one. Reed got the tally on a fourth down and goal two-yard pass to Jim

Wallace with 10:33 left in the first half. Pottenger and Sacramento missed passes but Pottenger hit Ralston for nine to the 26. Holton got the first down on a oneyard dive. At this point Pottenger decided to do something about his deficit rushing mark (minus 37 for the season). He ran on an option to the 18 then sprinted for eight more to the 10 before passing a 10-yarder to Dave Moore for the payoff with 2:16 left in the half. Sacramento’s 10th conversion of the year made it 21-7. The 21-7 halftime margin surprised and pleased most observers, but few could forget how

last year’s 21-0 edge was soaked up by Butler’s 20 last quarter points last year. That’s why there was considerably easier breathing when DePauw kept its offensive juices circulating as the

second half opened.

Six plays moved the opening kickoff 22 yards to the Butler 49. Pottenger proceeded to unload his third long pass of the day. It was a 40-yarder to Sacramento. The Waukegan, HI., senior had to slow up for the catch, enabling two startled Bulldogs to bring him down at the nine. Three Holton rushes and a Tiger offside put

field goal with 8:37 left in the third period. DePauw dominated the game because its thrusts had continuity. Butler got little sustained effort but it came off much better statistically. It was 17-17 on first downs. Butler had 206-182 passing edge, but DePauw owned a 141-78 rushing advantage. Pottenger completed 10 of 19 for 166 yards. McBride was 2-2 and Sacramento hit 1-2. Reed completed 12 of 20 for 140 yards. He yielded to Bob Walsman in the last quarter and he hit five of 15. This Saturday DePauw goes to

the ball at the four. Sacramento Indiana State for a 2 p.m. battle got his second crack at the score- with the 7-1 Sycamores of Indboard and booted in a 22-yard iana State University.

NEW YORK (UPI)—OJ. Simpson is expected to break loose against California Satur. day and the odds makers back their belief by making topranked Southern California a seven-point favorite over the

Bears.

Simpson was held to 67 yards rushing by Oregon last weekend as the Trojan backfield star stumbled momentarily in his race for Heisman Trophy honors. USC has a slate of six consecutive victories this season to five wins, a tie and a defeat for conference rival California.

Rounding out the top 10 rated teams, Purdue is 13 over Minnesota, Michigan 21 over Illinois, Missouri 22 over Iowa State, Texas 19 over Baylor and Georgia 7 over Florida.

USC still No. 1, but Woody’s gang closing

By JOE CARNICELLI UPI Sports Writer NEW YORK (UPI)-Southern California has learned the dangers of overconfidence. The Trojans needed a threeyard pass from Steve Sogge to Bob Klein with 1:13 left Saturday to best a .500 Oregon team 20-13. They still managed to hold their No. 1 ranking today, receiving 20 first place votes and 316 points from the 35-member United Press International Board of Coaches, but not without losing valuable ground to Ohio State, second with 287 points, and Kansas,

third and only two points farther back. Ohio State, a 25-20 victor over Michigan State, received seven first place votes while six coaches named Kansas No. 1. Fourth ranked Penn State and No. 5 Tennessee each received one first place vote. Purdue retained its No. 6 ranking, but the rest of the top 10 underwent reshuffling. Michigan moved up to seventh from its 10th ranking last week while Missouri advanced to eighth. Texas, still coming on strong after a shaky beginning, made its debut in the top 10 this

ABA scoring race three-way battle

NEW YORK (UPI)—The National Basketball Association’s individual scoring race is shaping up so far this season as a three-way battle among Earl Monroe of the Baltimore Bullets, Elgin Baylor of the Los Angeles Lakers and Dave Bing of the Detroit Pistons. At the moment Monroe is the nominal leader but he has played three more games than each of his chief rivals and trails both in average number of points per game. At the same time, Monroe’s average production per game is sufficient to suggest that he will remain in the fight for the lead when his rivals catch up to him in games played. The NBA’s official figures released today show that

Monroe has scored 300 points in 11 games for an average of 27.? per game. Baylor has scored 249 points in eight games for a 31.1 average and Bing has tallied 247 in eight games for a 30.9 average. Bob Rule of Seattle, Kevin Loughery of Baltimore, Czzie Russell of New York and Gus Johnson rank 4-5.6.7 in points but the next best average after Monroe’s belong to Gail Goodrich of the Phoenix Suns, who has scored 216 points in eight games for 27-per-game. Wilt Chamberlain of the Lakers leads in field goal percentage with .681, Walt Frazier in free throw percen. tage with .912, Bill Russell of the Boston Celtics in rebounds with 199 and Len Wilkens of Seattle in assists with 99.

season, capturing ninth place, while Georgia fell to 10th. California, eighth last week, dropped to 14th, followed by Arkansas and unbeaten Yale (60), making its first appearance of the year in the ratings. Miami (Fla.) took 17th while five teams—Alabama, Michigan State, Texas Tech, Ohio University and Nebraska—finished in a tie for 18th, each with one point. Southern California was extemely sluggish in beating Oregon, regarded as the Trojans’ last “soft touch” before closing with California, Oregon State, UCLA and Notre Dame. Ohio State cleared a major hurdle toward the Big Ten championship by downing Michigan State while Kansas took another step toward the Big Eight crown by beating Colorado 27-14.

half action, and the Tigers could not manage to get themselves untracked long enough to generate a substanial offensive attack.

DPU 4th, 9th in CC state meet DePauw’s cross country team finished fourth in the Little State and ninth in the Big State Friday at Indianapolis’ South Grove Country Club. Twenty-two teams were entered in the Big State meet that was won by Indiana University with 46 points. The Little State winner was computed in the same race, dropping out the five major universities. Taylor won the Little State, followed by Valparaiso and Vincennes and then the Tigers. Bill Syverson paced DePauw’s entry. He claimed seventh in the Little State and 22nd in the Big State. The other Tiger finishers and their places were Ralph Lowrey 11-28, Warren Johnson 25-52, Jim Gesler 38-68, Dave Barnes 53-85, Joe Kacmar 6395, and Scott Tucker 76- 109. Syverson’s time was 19:21 for the course that head coach Bob Harvey said was erroneously measured, falling about a quar-ter-mile short of the regular four-mile course. Team Standings: Little State: Taylor 24, Valparaiso 115, Vincennes 116, DePauw 134, Manchester 151, Wabash 154, Indiana Central 177, Earlham 192, Oakland City 198, Butler 216, Rose Poly 284, Hanover 328, Anderson 328, Evansville 385, Franklin 415, Marian 428, Tri-State 482.

Roberts, scoring his 12th goal of the season, was assisted byLarry Tasha and Emmanuel Roberts. At the 10:13 mark of the second period, Roberts added another tally to make it 2-0, as he scored unassisted on a breakaway. The Bengals dominated play the rest of the first half byplaying a “slow down” game. A wet and slippery field worked well to the Tigers’ advantage in the opening two quarters.
