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."
Georgia Race
Romney disclosed he already
had talked with Reagan about
achieving unity in the party.
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. Washington's Hugh Mc
Elhenny later of San Francisco
49er National Football League
fame). Jon Arnett of Southern
California f still with the NFL s
Los Angeles Rams) and Joe Kapp
of California (currently active in
the Canadian League) are but a
few.
For Oregon, there was Norm
Van Brocklin. later to become
one of the greatest NFL quarter
backs ever, and now coach of the
Minnesota Vikings of that league:
George Shaw, who quarterbacked
Baltimore until Johnny Unitas
took over; Mel Renfro, now an
All-Pro back with the Dallas Cow
boys: and Bob Berry, quarterback
for the Minnesota Vikings.

The elections offered scant

While the Republicans picked
up three Senate seats from the
Democrats, Viet Nam policy llg

And computers came up with
the verdict that the new House
