Texas coach Darrell Royal ad- mitted it was a shock to see Okla- homa using the same offense as his team. "I thought they might use a tight formation against us,M Royal said, "but I did hot dream they would use the Wishbone. It was somewhat confusing to our defense the first quarter, but they ad- justed well." Mississippi coach John Vaught said his star quarterback, Archie "Superboy" Manning, is "definitely hurt" with a pulled groin muscle. Despite the injury, Manning direc- ted the sixth-ranked Rebels to a 31-21 conquestof Georgia. Manning connected on 16 of 30 passes for 244 yards and three TD's, includ- ing 66 and 52-yarders. He also scored once. Top-ranked Ohio State stayed on the ground and turned on full power in the second half to wear down a stubborn Michigan State team, 29-0. Notre Dame, number three, got sterling performances from passing wizard Joe Theismann andreceiver Tom Gatewood and rode the Army Cadets to their worst defeat, pointwise, in history, 51-10. Theismann tossed three touchdown passes anda two-point conversion, and Gatewood, the nation's leading receiver, hauled in eight Theis- mann aerials for 136 yards. Nebraska, the number five team, needed two touchdowns in the final period to subdue Missouri, 21-7.

And tenth-ranked Arkansas bat- SERIES. from Page 1 Baltimore came from behind in both games over the weekend. Yesterday, the homeside Reds jumped off to a quick 4-0 lead over the first three innings, but tile Orioles came to life in their half of the fifth, banging out seven hits good for five runs. Catcher Ellie Hendricks deli- vered the winning hit of the in- ning — a two-run double that put Baltimore in front, 6-4. The Baltimore bullpen then held Cincy in check for the rest of the game. Relievers Moe Dra- bowsky, Marcelino Lopez and Dick Hall allowed the Reds only one run through the last four lnnlnas — a Johnny Bench homer in the sixth. Both starting pitchers were knocked out early. The Reds got to Baltimore's 24-game winner, Mike Cuellar, in the third and Cincinnati starter Jim McGlothlin was kayoed in the fifth. Tom Phoebus took over for Cuellar and lasted until the fifth...long enough to aet credit for the win. Big Boog Powell was the hit- ting star for the Orioles. He drove in two runs with two hits in three official trips to the plate, including a long homerun in the fourth. Bobby Tolan also homered for the Reds. The key play in Saturday's game, from the Reds' point of view, was a much-disputed call at home plate, when umpire Ken Burk- hart ruled Cincinnati's Bemie Carbo out with the score tied in the sixth inning. Cincinnati manager Sparky An- derson refused to complain, say- ing, "The umpire didn't beat us. Baltimore did it by putting three over the fence." Powell, Hendricks and Brooks Robinson homered for the Orioles with Robinson's blasting sealing the verdict. Lee May hit one for Cincin- nati as the Reds took an early 3—0 lead.
