Election Boosts GOP Congressional Power... (C<mtn!«<-rf from page 1) Democrats captured 245 of the 435 House races and were lead ing in three, while Republicans won 184 and were leading in three. The potential gain for the Republicans was 47. In many instances in the 89th Congress, some of the adminis trations “Great Society" items squeezed by on less than 25 votes. So the Republican gains were enough to menace the financing or continuation of some programs already under way and more to come. Romney told a news conference that the Republican victories across the nation mean that Con gress will not be a rubber stamp for the Johnson administration. "They (the victories) will re store Congress to its proper legis lative role.” Romney declared. Asked when he might make a decision on the possibility of seeking the Republican presiden tial nomination. Romney replied. “I will let you know."

The Georgia governor's race— so close that no one was likely to win—landed in federal court Hayward... (Continued from poor 1) That Oregon team did go to the Rose Bowl, but lost 7-6 to Har vard when an extra point attempt went wide. That game and that year, however, induced Hayward to postpone his plans for retire ment and stay another season with the Ducks. Thirteen years later. Hayward Field had its first All-American when tackle George Christensen —who couldn’t make an all-coast team—was named by the Associ ated Press. That same year, a bruising sophomore fullbaek named Mike Mikulak made his debut, team ing with halfback Mark Temple to take over in the backfield for Joe Lillard, the touted Duck half back of that year who was de clared ineligible for having played professional baseball. “Iron Mike” became an All American himself in 1933, and was followed by end Raymond Morse in 1934. And eleven years later, half back Jake—alias Twinkle Toes— Leicht became the third Webfoot All-American, frightening the Pa cific Coast with his pass-run op tion play, and then starring in the East-West Shrine game. Too many other immortals to mention played on the Hayward Field turf during the ensuing 20 years—and not all of them for Oregon.
