Who Won

P: Lawrence ("Yogi") Berra, the New York Yankees' hard-hitting (27 homers) catcher, the Baseball Writers' poll as most valuable American League player of the year. In close second place: St. Louis Pitcher Ned Carver, who won 20 games for the hapless Browns. P: Colonel Humberto Mariles of the Mexican Army equestrian team, five of nine jumping contests, a record individual performance, at the National Horse Show; in Manhattan's Madison Square Garden. P:Stanford University's football team, an inside track to the Rose Bowl by upsetting the University of Southern California with three fourth-quarter touchdowns, 27-20. The tide-turning play: a 96-yard kick-off return for a touchdown by Stanford Fullback Bob Mathias, Olympic and world's record decathlon champion. Other notable results: Michigan State over Notre Dame, 35-0, for the worst Irish defeat since its 48-0 rout by Army in 1945; unbeaten Illinois, No. 1 Big Ten team, over Iowa, 40-13; Tennessee, ranked No. 1 in the U.S., its 17th in a row over Washington & Lee, 60-14.

P: Tommy Bolt, of Durham, N.C., the North and South Open Golf tournament; at neighboring Pinehurst.

Most notable of the defeated: Defending Champion Sam Snead, U.S. Ryder Cup captain, who quit after a second-round 78.
