Ralph Anastasio. who slipped
behind two reserve Virginia
backs. snagged the ball with
his finger tips on the "a. and
scooted into the end zone to
complete q 62-yard shocker.
Whitley Mikanik, the other
West Virginia regular halfback,
punched the bali to the right
Of the goal posts on his extra
point try.
The second half was unevent-
full until the fourth period, ex-
cept for a high center In punt
formation which gave the
Mountaineers the ball on the
Virginia 25-yard line. The hosts
couldn't move and a pass inter-
ception by AL Cash ended the

With West Virginia leading
by its touchdown midway In
the last quarter and needing

sneaked through the middle
and broke into the clear
momentarily. Caught at about
the 35-yard line, Whitley
Tipped backwards to Henry
Davenport and the reserve
tackle charged over the goal

A clip was detected at the
Q and the score nullified but
Virginia was on its way.
The Cavaliers scored with
$40 remaining on the clock

its passing attack. Mikanik got
a ilrst down on the Noun

Whitaker from Mount Vernon,
who carried to the 2. Russell's

workhorse Of the day with SO
yards gained in 20 carries. al-
most twice the number Of totes
as Mikanik, who gained 50
yards in II tries as the West
Virginia leader.
Bakhtiaf also stopped West
Virginia's first scoring threat
by splitting Fullback Larry
Krutko on the Virginia 1-yard
line. on the 10th play of an
