The Week

EAST

"His ghost is still walking around in the halls," said Gene Filipski of former Army Coach Earl Blaik, for whom he played years ago when the Cadets were a powerhouse. But it was no ghost who was honored at halftime and who urged Army to send Washington State "back to the great Pacific Northwest, where they belong." That was the real, live Earl Blaik speaking. And sure enough, the Cadets, a 17-point underdog, rallied from a 21-7 halftime deficit to tie the Cougars 21-21. Jimmy Hill scored all of Army's touchdowns, and Clennie Brundidge latched on to a two-point conversion pass from Earle Mulrane for the tying points in the final quarter. Jack Thompson of the Cougars tossed two touchdown passes in the second period and was 14 for 21 at the half, but from there on was held to five completions in 15 attempts.

Early in the week an irate Boston College fan wrote Coach Ed Chlebek that, "You said you were going to make us like Notre Dame. You have. We're both 0-2." Unlike the Irish, the Eagles lost again, this time 19-8 to Navy, as 5'6" Bob Tata booted four field goals.

The game was only 10 seconds old when Penn State scored against TCU. The Horned Frogs had lost a fumble on the day's first play from scrimmage, and the Nittany Lions' Booker Moore promptly bolted nine yards for the first of his three touchdowns. Chuck Fusina found the mark on 11 of 14 passes for 165 yards and two touchdowns, as Penn State romped 58-0.

Doug Paschal scored twice for North Carolina, which led 16-13 in the fourth quarter at Pittsburgh. But Freddie Jacobs, who also had scored for the Panthers on runs of three and six yards, caught a 13-yard pass for the touchdown that gave Pitt a 20-16 victory. Throwing that pass was Rick Trocano, who hit on 16 of 27 attempts for 220 yards.

"I didn't add any offense and just went with basic plays," said Illinois Coach Gary Moeller. The basics were enough for a 28-14 triumph over winless Syracuse.

Temple, with an offensive line averaging 257 pounds from tackle to tackle, piled up 301 yards rushing and handed Delaware its first defeat 38-7.

The Ivies won five of eight against outside opposition. Four of the winners in these games scored 21 points and two did not allow any points. Columbia was the only team to hit on both ends of this numbers game, toppling Lafayette 21-0. Six of the other games were between intrastate rivals. The Ivy victors were Pennsylvania, which ended Lehigh's 11-game winning streak 21-13; Yale, which beat Connecticut 21-7; Cornell, which topped Colgate 21-12; and Harvard, which blanked Massachusetts 10-0. Two other Ivies were shut out, Princeton 24-0 by Rutgers and Dartmouth 35-0 by Holy Cross. And Rhode Island surprised Brown 17-3.
