Oregon And Oregon State Are Grid Winner Choices By HAROLD CLAASSEN NEW YORK iffi Traditional games dot the college football map. But background means lit tle in picking the winners. Getting the right backfield would be a much bigger help. So, off we go: Texas A&M over Rice: Bear Bryant's Aggies are No. 1 in the nation. Rice is only second best in the Southwest Conference. Oklahoma over Notre Dame: In belief that the Sooners have re covered from their midseason si esta. You can see for yourself on your TV screen. Auburn over Georgia: The Au burn defense is one of the best. Ohio State over Iowa: In the past 10 years the home team al ways has won in this crucial se ries. The Buckeyes do the enter taining this time and hope to clinch the Rose Bowl bid. Michigan State over Minnesota: This could be closer than it looks if the Spartans spend too much time remembering their Notre Dame victory and if Bobby Cox is back to normal. Tennessee over Mississippi: Ev erything is at stake here the Sugar Bowl bid for a possible South eastern Conference title. Mississippi hasn't won from Ten' ncssee since 1948. Army over Tulane: Bob Ander son to do some more galloping. The game has been switched to West foint. Duke over Clcmson: Clemson has Harvy White but Duke has too much of everything else. Oregon over Southern Califor nia: By about a touchdown. Texas Christian over Texas: TCU rested last week while Texas was being dumped out of the Cot ton Bowl picture in a 6-6 draw with Baylor. Skipping over the others in a hurry: FAR WEST: California over Washington, Denver over Utah State, Montana over Colorado Stale University, Wyoming over New Mexico, Oregon State over Stanford, Utah over Air Force, Washington State over Idaho, UCLA over College of Pacific. Last week's figures: 35 right, 14 wrong ... 714 average. - 4 T"7 ..if 5 , TP PERFECTLY CLEAR Pat Smythe takes her Flanagan over a high jump.

OR 2-2252 t Blk. Weit ol Poif Offict to recommend Devine as his suc cessor. August A. Busch. president and owner of the Cardinals, took the advice. He called a press confer ence and announced Dev.ne's ap pointment three hours after Lane suddenly bowed out. "I won't believe all this until I'm sure I'm awake." said Devine. "I'm afraid I'm dreaming." The new general manager's sal ary was said to be $30,000 a year. Busch took the occasion to an nounce a new policy: From now on only the field manager will work under contract a one-year contract and the other members of the managerial team will be on a mnnth-to-month basis. Devine told reporters that will make no difference to him it's the same way he's been working since he first joined the Cardi nals as a publicity man in 1938. Seaside's Gary Holmes Signs SEASIDE, Ore. Wl Garry Holmes, left-handed pitching and hitting star of last season's Sea side Oregon class A-2 high school baseball champions, signed with the Cleveland Indians Tuesday. Carl Mays, Cleveland scout, said he received a bonus of less than $4,000, but did not disclose the exact sum. That will permit the Cleveland major league club to farm Holmes, 18, to its Reading, Pa., affiliate in the class A Eastern League. But Mays said Holmes will train first with Cleveland. Mays called Holmes "one of the greatest young hitters I've ever seen," and added, "Even if he couldn't make it as a pitcher, which is most unlikely, he could certainly go all the way to the majors as a first baseman." Holmes pitched 11 of Seaside High's 13 victories in its unde feated 1956 season. Holmes is 6-1, weighs 180 pounds. He struck out 22 batters in the seven-inning title game against Glide. Two reached first base on wild pitch strikes. He is a curve baller. Holmes enrolled at Oregon State College this fall but dropped out of school to await signing of a professional contract. Frank Lane Chosen GM At Cleveland By CLETE JONES CLEVELAND, I An explos ive 61-year-old baseball executive with a reputation for shrewd trading was faced Wednesday with making pennant contenders of the Cleveland Indians and fill spa cious Municipal Stadium with fans who will pay to see them play. Frank Lane, appointed general manager of the Indians Tuesday, arrived in Cleveland Tuesday night. Lane left St. Louis and his job as Cardinal's general manag er to succeed fired Hank Green berg. "Our first job," Lane said after he stepped off the plane," is to find out what the team needs." "I'm going to do everything and anything I can to help." Ten days after he took over as Chicago White Sox' general man ager in 1948 he got Billy Pierce and $10,000 from the Detroit Tig ers for catcher Aaron Robinson. Pierce has become one of the great lefthanders in baseball, while Robinson faded. Lane said he wanted to get ac quainted with the team and talk things over with Bobby Bragan, Tribe field manager, before com menting on any possible trades. He did mention, however, that "from a distance" the Indians looked as if they needed help around second base. He said he talked with John Me Hale, gen eral manager of the Detroit Tig ers, by telephone in St. Louis Tuesday. Shortstop Harvey Kuenn who spent part oi last season ai third base for Detroit, was dis cussed. William R. Daley, chairman of the Indians' board of directors, did not disclose salary terms when he announced Lane's ap pointment Tuesday. Speculation was he will receive $50,000 plus attendance bonuses from Cleve land under a three-year contract. PRO BASKETBALL By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Boston 107.

Gov. Joe J. Foss of South Da kota, sneaking at Veterans Day observances at Arlington National Cemetery, declared that the Amer ican public, alerted by the Soviet feats, are "letting it be known that they prefer strength and national security to penny-pinching." The governor, who won the Med al of Honor in World War II and served with distinction in the Ko rean conflict, blamed- the last Congress for fielding to a public clamor for economy "obtained at the expense of military strength and national security." The ceremony at nearby Arling ton, Va., was the official national observance of Veterans Day the date on which Germany sur rendered 39 years ago to end World War I. At a similar observance at Welch, W. Va , former President Harry S.
