Who Won
> No. 4-ranked Illinois: a 17-7 Rose Bowl victory over unranked Washington, on the running of Sophomore Fullback Jim Grabowski, who scored one touchdown, gained 125 yds. In the Orange Bowl, Nebraska raced to a 13-0 half-time lead, barely hung on to beat Auburn 13-7. And in the Sugar Bowl, Alabama's Tim Davis booted field goals from 48 yds., 46 yds., 31 yds., and 22 yds. to edge Mississippi 12-7.
> Scotland's Jimmy Clark, 27: the South African Grand Prix, by 67 sec. over Dan Gurney. World Champion Clark averaged 95.1 m.p.h. in his Lotus-Climax, led all the way for his seventh win in ten races--a new record.
> 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.
