But several press box observers thought the presentation of the ball to the Farasopoulos was a little premature. At the time the ball was presented to him, he was unofficially seven yards ahead of the old record of 2253 yards. The question at that moment was: What happens if he loses seven or more yards on kickoff and punt returns and fails to make up the difference before the game ends? Would he have to give the ball back to the official? Well the worry warts worried for naught, because after the yardage was totaled up at the end of the game, the handsome Farasopoulos officially had beaten the old record by five yards with a career total of 2258. After the game Farasopoulos said he was going to get every member of the Cougar team to autograph the ball and then he was going to give it to his mother. Bob Jacobs, Wyoming's kickoff and field goal specialist, also was awarded a game ball when he booted the 37th field goal of his career, which broke another NCAA record. Jacobs booted his record-breakin- g field goal in the second period and the kick traveled 23 yards. Following the game, the Provo Elks Lodge made its annual presentation of Block-- blankets to the seniors on this year's Cougar football team. Karl 0. George, exalted ruler of the lodge, was in charge of the presentation and the blankets went to the following players: Neil Bingham, Farasopoulos, Jim Faulkner, Lucky Dare Fleming, Bill Glatch, Don Griffin, Larry Heaps, Wes Homolik, Kip Jackson, Mike Jacobsen, Gerald Meyer, Ted Nelson, Ed Nichols, Jim Phillips, Ken Serck, Dennis Watford and Dick Legas. .When Wyoming called a running play on fourth down and Y Jacoby remarked as he watched the play unfold. The guy with the binoculars was back in business on the knoll behind the north end of stadium. He was there during the State game two weeks ago and most people, at that time, thought he was a deer hunter who happened to wander on the scene. But with the deer hunt now a thing of the past, he may well be a University of Utah football spy as one press box inhabitant suggested two weeks ago.

It was a tough day on the officials, physically speaking. In the first quarter, Dan Hansen of the Cats accidentally kicked one of the officials as he was rolling on the ground. And in the third quarter, Pete Van Valkenberg ran over one of the officials and sent him sprawling as the Cougar halfback ran for the sidelines. The official tried to stay ahead of the charging Van Valkenberg, but the BYU back was too fast for the official. le "'-- " ?
