The second quarter saw the Illini hit paydirt once again when their full- back drove twenty-five yards for the counter. Karras ran and passed for touchdowns in the third period to crush any hopes the gallant Bobcats had of pulling an upset. OU, fighting to the finish, averted a shutout late in the final period when linebacker John Turk nailed Ronnie Clark in his own end zone after a bad lateral. Butler ' s Bulldogs provided the Fighting Bobcats with some stiff opposition before they finally bowed 21-14. Stumpf scored in the second period to tie the game 7-7. Late in the third quarter Dick Phillips, an unheralded reserve back, gathered in a Butler punt and raced seventy-four yards downfield to tally OU ' s second touchdowTi. An end zone pass assured Bobcat success. Bill Bevan Demus Jones Andy Fabis PACE twenty two

Showing their liest offensive form of the year in their first home game, the OU eleven roared to a 35-0 trouncing of Western Reserve. Tom Anderson put on a brilliant passing exhibition. He threw three scoring passes, two to Dick Davis and one to end Nick Fogoros. Dick Phillips and Ed Roberts brought the crowd to their feet with two electrifying touch- down scampers. Phillips repeated his Butler performance, this time returning a punt seventy-three yards to score. Roberts ran eighty-eight yards fi-om scrimmage for the TD. With three victories already tucked away the Bobcats jour- neyed to Kent State confident of suliduing another foe. The Golden Flashes, however, led by their great Jack Mancos, had other ideas. The Bobcats returned home smarting from the resounding 35-13 loss. Gene Knuxhall PACE twenty four Red Davis i;d Roberts
