...passes inside its own 40. So back went Carlisle, out went Harris-and once more Donnelly was the Navy goat. Lunging for the ball, Donnelly tipped it straight into the Texan's hands on the Navy 37-and fell flat on his face. The rest of the 63-yd. trip was a breeze. Another TD, 14-0. At last Navy got the message and started blanketing Harris. Down to earth came Carlisle, marching Texas to the Navy 9 and personally swivel-hipping past a pair of tacklers for a third score. He then trotted back to the bench...
...charging Texas line dumped him behind the line of scrimmage; twice, they knocked the ball loose before he could get his pass away. On one play, desperately trying to elude Appleton's clutches, he smacked into the referee, bounced off into Appleton's arms for a 23-yd. loss. Asked who his most persistent tormentors were, Staubach sighed: "Well, they all had me down one time or another, and I didn't notice their numbers."

...Florida A.& M.'s Bob Hayes, 21: the 100-yd. dash in 9.1 sec., tying his own world record, over a slow, rain-soaked track at the Orange Bowl track meet. A 10-m.p.h. wind made it all unofficial, but Hayes also splashed through the 220 in 20.1 sec.-just .1 sec. off Dave Sime's world mark-even though he slowed down to avoid crashing into spectators at the finish line...
