o O o o o o Brundage Shines As Grid Classic Ends With Tie PORTLAND (AP) A magnif icently fought battle between State and Metro all-star football teams ended in a 19-19 tie in the annual Shrine game Saturday night. The 18,188 fans at Multnomah Stadium weren't disappointed at the stalemate, though. It produce! some of the most brilliant foot hall seen in the history of the event. Chuck Miller of Lebanon ran for three State touchdowns, carried the ball for 146 yards in 24 tries, and almost turned the game into a personal triumph. Engineer Brundage The other State backs also drew plaudits. Roseburg's Mike Brund age, doing most of State's quarter hacking, engineered drives of 79, 68, and SI yards for State's touch downs. The drives used crunching power plays, and State backs nick Ragsdale of Medford and Phil Humphreys of Medford were equal to the task. On kickoff returns, too, the State backs sparkled. Humphreys took one back for 44 yards, and Ragsdale sparked a late drive that nearly carried to a score wi!h a 38-yard return, after Metro's last touchdown. Mttrs Standout Terry DeSylvia, the cool field general who led David Douglas to the State Atl title last fall, was a standout for Metro. He passed for two touchdowns and sent Andy W V. I J if MIKE BRUNDAGE . . . shines for Staters Berkis of Milwaukie through tackle for a 24-yard scoring play. The linemen came in for some well-deserved glory, too. Medford guard Al Funston he came the second lineman in the history of the Shrine game to walk off with the award for the most valuable player. Named the best Stqte lineman was Klamath Falls tackle Gary Hancock. Hoyt Keeney, David Douglas center, was named the outstand ing Metro lineman. Funston and Hancock were keys in the Slate power plays, ripping gaping holes in the Metro line to give the flashy State backs run ning room. The deadlock left the series be tween the two All-Star teams tied at six wins apiece and two ties. The pre-game dopestcrs figured State backs to pass a good deal more than they did, but Metro defenders choked off the aerial game. The Metro backs did "a terrific Job on pass defense," said coach Marv Hiebert. State head man Mel Fox echoed the sentiments. "Metro did a good joh on our passes. We never could go all the way with a throw." Ron Martin of Jefferson, named the best Metro back, was one of the potent pass defenders. Hiebert singled him out for praise along with Larry Binkerd of Hillsboro and Ron Hergert of Jefferson.

Pollard Makes Clean Sweep Of Salt Lake City Races Roseburg race driver Art Pollard made a clean sweep in winning the Copper Cup Classic at Salt Lake Lity, Utah, Saturday night. In winning the 50 lap main event on the quarter-mile asphalt track, U.S. Net Stars Topple Mexico CLEVELAND, Ohio (AP) - A U.S. team has won the Davis Cup tennis American zone finals from Mexico 3-2 for the second year in a row, and the man who won the deciding match said the weather helped him do it. The third day's play was de layed for an hour and a half Sun day while gasoline was snlashed on the Cleveland Skating Clubs's courts and set afire to dry the rain-soaked clay. Then Chuck McKinlcy of St. Louis blasted his way past Mexi co's No. 1 man, 33-ycar-old Mario Llamas, 6-4, 7-5, 10-8 to tic the match at 2-2. Bernard (Tut) D ari zen, another 33-ycar-old and na tional clay courts champion, fol lowed with a 7-3, 6-3, 7-5 triumph over Mexico's Rafael Osuna, 22. "With the courts a little damp, it worked in my favor," said Brtzcn, "because Osuna likes tti play the net and fire the ball past you. But he wasn l able to do it, because the ball was heavier and not taking off as fast as it will on a dry court, like he had last Fri day when he beat Chuck." McKinlcy had lost three straight sets to Osuna by 6-3 scores Fri day when Bartzen defeated Llamas 4-6, 6-4, 6-4, 6-4. The Mexi cans went ahead 2-1 Saturday when Osuna and Antonio Palafox beat McKinlcy and Dennis Ralston in the doubles, 9-7, 2-6, 6-4, 6-4. the local driver set a new track record of : 1 4 . 5 1 , breaking his own mark of : 14.67, set only the night before. For his efforts, the Rosehurg speedster added another $1,000 to his bank account and five new cups to his trophy rack. Pollard won, in addition to a trophy for the n.ain event, a fast time trophy, two trophy dashes and a miniature of the touting trophy. Finished Second Finishing second in the big event was Canadian driver, Eldon Ras penson, who in the past few weeks has eaten lots of Pollard dust. The Canadian finished second to the lo cal driver in Friday competition, and it was Raspensun who took a back seat to Pollard in the recent Canada Gold Cup race at Edmon ton, Alberta. More than 16,000 fans witnessed the two days of competition in iho Utah city. In winning the main event Fri day night, Pollard raced with n slightly bent rear axle. The local driver tangled with other cars in a preliminary race and was forced against a retainer wall. He barely managed to make emergency re pairs in time to compete in the main event. Sot For Eugene Back in Roscburg today, and resting up from the two days of fast competition, Pollard is setting his sights on the hugene Champion ship Race to be run on Labor. Day. SCHEFFING IS HOPEFUL DETROIT (AP) "The Yan kees certainly are the team to beat, as usual," says Detroit Man ager Bob Schcffing, "but they are not immune to injury or illness. "Every club has troubles some where along the lino and I'm not wishing him bad luck, but what might happen to the Yanks if Whitey Ford came up with a sore arm?" Jalopies Provide Action And Thrills In Last Race Of Year Fast action and many thrills were afforded local racing fans as the jalopies appeared in their last race of the season at the Rose burg trace Saturday night.
