Dodgers' Magic Number
Cut To Three Friday Night
By FRED DOWN
UPI Sports Writer
' The Dodgers': long-awaited "to
morrow" could be this Sunday.
After the agony of 1962 and the
pressuro of . the last few weeks,
the Dodgers now suddenly find
that their "magic" National
League pennant-clinching number
is down to three.
Another Dodger victory over
the Pittsburgh Pirates tonight
while the St. Louis Cardinals are
idle and then a Los Angeles win
and St. Louis loss on Sunday
would end it and make the Dodg
ers champs.
What looked so difficult a week
ago now seems so easy after Don
Drysdalc's 2-0 triumph over the
Tiratcs Friday night and the Car
dinals' 1-0 setback at the hands
of John Tsitouris and the Cincin
nati Reds. The Dodgers' lead is
suddenly ballooned to five games
and they need to win only three
of their last eight games to clinch
even if the Cardinals were to win
all six of their remaining games.
Don Drysdule, who has been the
hard-luck pitcher of the Los Ang
eles staff this season, pitched a
seven-hitter, struck out three and
didn't walk a batter in register
Riddle Topped By Brookings
Riddle's Irish ran into a small
but mighty team of invaders from
Brookings Friday, and when the
dust had cleared the visitors had
smashed the local crew, 45-13.
The Irish gave the invaders three
breaks in the first half and were
never able to recover. The breaks
included two lost fumbles and a
Brookings pass interception with
each being turned into a TD.
Brookings broke into a 14-0 ad
vantage by the end of the first
period, and increased their lead to
26-6 by halftime. Enjoying the com
fortable 20-point margin at the
mid-break, the invaders had things
their own way throughout the sec
ond half.

invading Springfield Millers. Cot
tage Grove's Lions rambled on un
defeated with an impressive 36-7
rout of the Thurston Colts and sur
prising North Bend nipped South

Cottage Grove turned in a bril
liant offensive display with quar
terback Mark Hcnningsgaard toss
ing TD bombs of 67 and one yards,
while fullback Al Richards and
halfback Charles Darden each
pitched in with a pair of six-point
ers. Darden s second TD came as
a receiver for a Henningsgaard
toss. Chuck Olds added to his
point total with a TD and four PAT
kicks.
The Bulldogs of North Bend play
ed a hard-nosed defensive battle
and quarterback Ken Snoddy pro
vided the needed scoring to upend
the invading Axemen. Snoddy cli
maxed the lone scoring drive of the
game with a one-yard sneak,- then
kicked the FAT.
In other action the Marshficld

Taking to the air when they
found their ground game stopped,
the Douglas Trojans edged the Gold
Beach Eagles by a 14-7 count Fri
day in a non-league game at Gold
Beach.
Danny Withers served as field
general for the powerful Trojans,
and sparked the local A-2 squad to
triumph over the seventh rank
ed team in the current prep polls.
Withers completed only four of
15 ' passes, but these completions
were good for 137 vards and the
'winning TD. On the ground With-
ers led the carriers by taking to
the outside when the rugged Gold
Beach defense stopped all gains
j through the middle.
I Defensively the Trojans turned
in a topflight performance, stop
Ding all threats inside the 20-yard
' line after the opening minutes. The
! Eagles gained 233 yards on the
ground, but most of this was done
near the middle of the field, with
the visitors digging in whenever
threatened.
The home team took off at a fast
clip when Ron McCully broke loose
for the longest run of the night.
The speedy Gold Beach back avoid
ed all would be tacklers with an
uncanny sense as he sprinted 78-
yards to paydirt. Larry Barton
broke through the line enough to
add the PAT and give the Eagles
a 7-0 margin.
By halftime the Trojans had bat
tled back to tie the score, with
Withers doing all the point' making.
The talented signal caller rolled
out and cut over a tackle slot to
twist and turn his way for 14
yards and the six points. He then
took the ball over on a quarterback
sneak for the PAT to tie the game.
Douglas' winning TD came in
the final stanza when Withers con
nected with Chuck Person for 30
yards and another TD. Fullback
Jim Heard powered his way
through for the extra point.
The victory was the second in a
row for the Trojans over teams
rated in the top 10 in A-2 compe
tition. Last week Douglas nipped
CoquiUe, 14-12. Friday s victory,
coupled with Riddle's loss to Brook'
ings boosts the Trojans to solid
favorites, once the Umpqua Valley

Beamer, Mike Leep Lead
Tribe To Conference Win
By NIEL CELLERS
Ntws-RivlRW Sports Editor
Bolstered by the jelling of the
offensive attack, the Roseburg In
dians rolled on as expected in Mid
western League Dlav Friday night
with an unexpected easy win over
the visiting Springfield Miners.
Favored to win their third consec
utive District 5-A-l title, the In
dians unsheathed their tomahawks
and scalped the Millers, 25-7.
Quarterback Jim Beamer turned
in a brilliant display of field gener-
almanship, getting plenty ot assist
ance from the surrounding backs
and charging forward wall. Beam
er bit his pass receivers at a .667
clip, completing eight ot u at
tempts. Included in the eignt completions
for the flashy signal caller was a
pair of TD aerials.. On the ground
Beamer added two six-pointers of
his own as he picked up 52 yards
on 10 carries. ,
Mike Leep, Roseburg s rugged
210-pound fullback, continued to
plough through the opposition. The
bruising back led the Indians in
the first half with 64 yards gained
rushing, and ended the game with
yards for 14 carries as the in
vaders geared their defense to stop
Mike Leep in the second half.
On the receiving end of Beam
er s passing Doug Matson, iton
Leep and Gary Heeter proved ef
fective. Matson pulled in three
aerials for 43 yards, Ron Leep snar
ed two for 43 yards and Heeter
picked off two for 27 yards.
Defensively the charge was led
by Mike Leep, Dick Gwaltney, Jon
Burnham and the "Ferocious
Four" in the front line. The four
rugged linemen are Jesse Hart,
Terry Rudolf, Dennis Frank and
Doug DuFresne.
The Tribe took over on Its own
10-yard line after trading punts
with the Millers in the first quar
ter. From the 10 the local power
house proceeded to march 90 yards
13 plays. Mike Leep came
through with gainers of 10 and 13
yards to lead the charge to the
Springfield 34.
From the 34 the Indians went
all the way on one play. Beamer
spotted Ron Leep in the open near
the goal line, let fly with an arrow
which Ron Leep took jumping high
in the air and coming down in the
end zone.
The first quarter drive set a
precedent, with Beamer guiding
the winners 81-yards for another
six points midway through the sec
ond quarter.
Sutherlin's Bulldogs Lose
7-0 Heart breaker To Bucs
Finding themselves unable to
dent the goal line, the Sutherlin
Bulldogs lost a 7-0 heartbreaker to
the invading Pacific Pirates Friday
in non-league football action.
The Pirates racked up the decid
ing TD in the second quarter, tak
ing over on the Sutherlin 44-yard
marker and marching to the end
zone in nine plays. The drive ap
peared bogged down on the 34
yard line when Bob Neff connected
with Gary Rogers on a 22-yard
aerial.
Pacific continued to move the
ball at short clips, with Rogers
breaking through for the TD from
five yards out. Neff ran for the
PAT.
The host Bulldogs missed at
least three good scoring opportun
ities, running out of steam once
they got inside the Pacific 20. In
the first quarter the Bulldogs
marched to the Pacific 10, and
later in the game penetrated as
deep as the 16.
Quarterback Mike Ouellette and
halfback Don Goertzen were prais
ed by coach Cy Perkins for their
outstanding offensive displays. The
two veterans collected most of
Sutherlin's yardage on the ground,
and Ouellette completed five pass
es, including a 40-yarder in the
closing seconds.
The Bulldogs moved the ball well
on the ground, gaining 141 yards,
and completed eight of 21 pass at

Again Mike Leep broke loose for
a long gain to start the drive off
on the right foot this time bull
ing nis way through the Millers
for 18 yards on a draw play. With
a third and seven situation on the
Roseburg 41 a 20-yard pass from
Beamer to Doug Matson put the
Redskins over the center stripe.
Five plays later Beamer faded
back and fired a strike to Heeter
on the five-yard line. Heeter con
tinued the journey to paydirt un
touched, with the play covering 19
yards.
Hart fell on a Springfield fum
ble just two plays after Roseburg
had kicked off, and once again the
home team was on its way. Beamer
faded back from the six, found his
receivers covered so he tucked
the ball and headed forthe left
sideline. Seeing daylight Beamer
cut back to his right and went
into the end zone with a minimum
of opposition.
Enjoying an 18-0 lead, the In
dians came back to add an insur
ance tally in the third quarter. An
intercepted pass by Vince Peetz
gave the Tribe possession on the
Springfield 34. A 14-yard pass to
Ed Mendenhall, followed by Beam
cr's 16 yar4 jaunt on the option
play put the Indians on the score
board again. Alan Young kicked
the PAT.
Springfield managed to break
through against tho Roseburg re
serves with 2:25 left in the game
when a pitchout from the quarter
back went astray and Larry John
son picked up the bouncing pigskin,
rambling 55 yards down the right
side of the field for a TD. John
Thomas ran for the extra point.
Roseburg now has a 2-0 mark in
league play, with North Bend's un
defeated Bulldogs invading next
week for a crucial test, the loss
gives the Millers a record of one
loss and one tie. .
