OSC Awaits Game Film
To Settle Controversy
CORVALLIS. ORE. - (U R' O’-e
gon State College officials today
questioned whether Southern Cal
Vornia tailback Frank Gifford was
behind the line of scrimmage when
threw a crucial touchdown pass
to Bob Buckley.
With the Trojans trailing 14 to 6
and the ball on the OSC 14. Gifford
■took a handoff and faded deep be
-*otv he began his forward motion.
The controversy developed over
whether he passed the 14 before
lie turned loose of the ball.
Some Oregon State officials
maintained he was on the 10-yard
»ne before he flipped the pass that
jpit the Trojans back in the ball
go me.
OSC coach Kip Taylor, said he
would not voice an opinion until
dm had seen the game pictures
Ifcter this week. He did admit he
started on the field to question the
I play at the time but was waved to
j the sidelines and he said, right
fully so by the officials.
The disputed play was the sec
ond hassel involving the Trojans in
as many games. Last week Univer
sity of Washington officials charg
ed that SC "deliberately injured"
two ace Washington players.
Southern Cal coach Jess Hill
said he was not in position to see
the questioned paas. But he re
called that Gifford faded "very
deep” before starting toward the
scrimmage line.
What sideliners thought was a
mental lapse and one which en
abled the Trojans to set up Gif
ford's game-winning field goal
was a called play.

for Oregon's freshman quarterback
George Shuw despite the G3-G

“Shaw fooled our defense and
pitched passes right on the dime,”
Odell said. “He was by far the best
quarterback on the field."
The Huskies' pilot said Shaw
would fake a pass, then turn
around, spin in the air and ahoot
“amazingly accurate" passes to his
ends.
Odell was obviously happy be
cause of the impressive victory
Washington rolled up. but said he
was “sorry" his Huskies ran lip
