Irish trim Purdue;

By The Associated Press
SOUTH BEND - Jerome Heavens
bolted 26 yards for a third-period
touchdown and Joe Unis added a 27-
yard field goal Saturday as Notre Dame
shook off the frustrations of two
straight losses with a 10-6 victory over
previously undefeated Purdue.
Totally outplayed in the first half, in
which the Boilermakers cashed in on
field goals of 28 and 47 yards by Scott
overeen for a 6-0 lead, the Irish finally
broke on top with Heavens' touchdown
to cap a 46-yard drive.
THE NEXT time Purdue had the ball,

the Boilermakers attempted a double
handoff and a pass by Mark Herrmann
was intercepted by Randy Harrison,
who returned 34 yards to the Purdue 13
before Unis booted the first field goal of
his career.
Purdue so dominated the first half
that the Irish had only one first down
until mounting their only drive in the
closing minutes of the second quarter.
Notre Dame moved from its 11 to the
Purdue 19 but a botched end-around
play lost five yards and Unis' 41-yard
field goal attempt fell short.
Purdue put on a last-ditch rally on the
passing of Herrmann to move to the

Notre Dame 37-yard line before Steve
Heimkreiter intercepted to end the
threat with 1:47 lef t to play.

Ohio State 34, Baylor 28
COLUMBUS - Freshman quarter-
back Art Schlichter passed 51 yards for

Bucki
one touchdown and ran 24 yards for
another score Saturday, leading 13th-
ranked Ohio State to a 34-28 football vic-
tory over Baylor.
The victory gave Woody Hayes his
200th career victory with the Buckeyes
in his 28th season.
SCHLICHTER, WHO earlier had

snip L
thrown a pair of costly interceptions,
unloaded a 51-yard bomb to Doug
Donley that gave the heavily favored
Buckeyes the lead for good in the third
quarter.
Schlichter also ran 24 yards for the
opening touchdown for Ohio State, 2-1-0.
Baylor suffered its third consecutive

14

yior
loss this season.
However, the Bears forged a 21-17
lead at halftime, stunning, the 58th
straight sellout crowd in Ohio Stadium.
Baylor quarterback Steve Smith
tossed a pair of first-half touchdown.
passes, throwing 19 yards to Gordon
Marshall and 15 yards to Mike Fisher.
TONY LAWS ran three yards for the
other Baylor touchdown in the first
quarter..
Ohio State's veteran defense adjusted
at halftime and shut out the Bears in the
last 30 minutes while Schlichter hooked
up with Donley, Paul Campbell ran one
yard for a touchdown and Bob Atha
booted a 34-yard field goal for the
Buckeyes.
Baylor nearly pulled off an upset in
the final minute, regaining possession
of the ball with 48 seconds left.
However, on the second play, Ohio
State defensive end Kelton Dansler hit
Smith at his own three and the Baylor
quarterback fumbled. Mark Sullivan,
the Buckeyes' middle guard, recovered
at the 10 with 36 seconds left.

Phillies clinch title;
Yanks, Sox both win

By The Associated Press
Three down, one to go.
The Philadelphia Phillies, engaged
in a late-season struggle with Pitts-
burgh for the National League's
Eastern Division title, defeated the
Pirates 10-8 yesterday to clinch their
third consecutive divisional crown.
Meanwhile, the hotly contested
American League East race
remained just that, as both the New
York Yankees and Boston Red Sox
won yesterday.
The Bronx Bombers thus take a
one game advantage into today's
final day. A New York win or a
Boston loss will clinch a third

straight AL East title for the
Yankees.
Phillies 10, Pirates 8
PITTSBURGH-The Phillies,
powered by Greg Luzinski's three-
run homer and a pair of solo homers
by pitcher Randy Lerch, ex-
tinguished the Pittsburgh Pirates
faint title hopes yesterday with a 10-
8 victory over the Bucs.
The Phillies, who survived a four-
run Pittsburgh ninth inning, will
host the NL West champion Los An-
geles Dodgers Wednesday night in
the opener of the league's best-of-
five playoff series.
The Phillies had 16 hits, then sur-
vived the Pittsburgh burst in the nin-
th to take their title. Dave Parker
had a two-run single in the Pirates'
last-gasp rally.
The Pirates, who needed a four-
game sweep of the Phils to gain at
least a tie for first, had their~home
winning streak stopped at 24 games.
Yanks 7, Indians 0
NEW YORK-Ed Figueroa pitched
a five-hitter to become a .20-game
winner for the-first time and Chris
Chambliss-and Roy White drove in

ning yesterday as the New York
Yankees whipped the Cleveland In-
dians 7-0 and clinched a tie for the
American League East Division
pennant.
The Yankees knocked out Mike
Paxton, 12-11, before he could retire
a batter. Singles by Mickey Rivers
and Thurman Munson and a walk to.
Reggie Jackson loaded the bases.
Graig Nettles singled off the glove of
right fielder Dan Briggs for one run.
Chambliss doubled for two more and
White delivered the final two with a
single.
Red Sox 5, Blue Jays 1
BOSTON-Dennis Eckersley
posted his 20th victory with a five-
hitter yesterday as the Boston Red
Sox sent the American League East
race down to the wire with a 5-1 vic-
tory over the Toronto Blue Jays.
With their seventh consecutive
victory and 11th in the last 13 games,
the Red Sox remained one game
behind the New York Yankees. The
regular season ends today.
Eckersley, who has lost only eight
games since being acquired from
Cleveland just before the season
began, boosted his Fenway Park
record to 11-1 with the help of a four-
run Boston first inning.

The 69 points was the most ever
scored against Indiana.

set a Nebraska single game record of
254 yards rushing against the Hoosiers
last year, scored three of the Cor-
nhuskers' four first-period touchdowns
as the Indiana defense was virtually
non-existent. His fourth, early in the
third quarter, also set a Stadium record
for touchdowns and points scored by an
individual player.

ball yesterday.
Kalasmiki completed 16 of 35 passes
for 252 yards, including a 12-yard

wriggled through Missouri defenders

Schamann set an NCAA record for con-
secutive extra points yesterday as

HILLER HALTS BIRDS, 5-4

c

Up-and-down
By LIZ MAC
,special to the Daily
DETROIT-The Detroit Tigers withstood a tug-of-war
battle with the Baltimore Orioles yesterday, and went on to
win the rain-delayed contest, 5-4.
In a contest which featured run scoring in six different
innings, Steve Baker (2-4) emerged as the winner with
relief help from bullpen ace John Hiller. The loser, Mike
Flanagan (19-15), was snubbed in his bid to become the
second Oriole hurler to win 20 games this season.
THE TIGERS OPENED the scoring in the first inning, as
Lou Whitaker walked and went to second on a passed ball.
John Wockenfuss then singled, and Whitaker came home
when Steve Kemp looped a single to center.
A leadoff blast in the second tied it up for the Birds when
Doug DeCinces tagged one to the upper deck in left.
The two teams continued to exchange one-run innings in
the Detroit second and the Baltimore third.
TIGER NEWCOMER Dave Stegman contributed a solo
blast, his first major league home run.

Tigers prevail
After retiring the first two batters in the third, starter
Jack Morris gave up a base hit to Ken Singleton. He advan-
ced to second when Whitaker juggled a ground ball and
scored on a single to center by DeCinces.
That deadlocked the score at 2-2, and the game was
delayed in the middle of the fifth by rain.
WHEN PLAY RESUMED more than an hour later,
Wockenfulss lined a 3-2 pitch just fair in left.
Baker came in to relieve Morris, and again the Orioles
countered with two more runs. Catcher Rick Dempsey
walked and Larry Harlow bounced-one off the upper deck in
right center.
Then it was the Tigers turn to tie it once more. Kemp and
Parrish singled to lead off the inning, and came home on a
throwing error by second baseman Rick Dauer.
IN THE SEVENTH, singles by Wockenfuss, who had
three hits for the afternoon, and Rusty Staub and a fielder's
choice by Jason Thompson put the Tigers on top to stay.
The Tigers finish up the 1978 season today, as Dave
Rozema (9-11) faces Oriole righthander Dennis Martinez
(15-11).
