They'll be "up" for the Vikings, for sure. Czech has practically an all letterman starting lineup with a line average of 178 pounds, to 162 In the backfield.

While happy in their 40-14 victory, Bill McArthur, John Chamberlain and the assorted. OCE personnel are also wondering how come they were subjected to so many booes from the assemblage ... After tallying two touchdowns in the first four minutes, seemed like the OCE's got the razz berries every time they turned around . . . And, mind you, from what was supposed to be a strictly neutral crowd, ... Booing is most times distaste ful but particularly so in a bene fit contest where athletes are risk ing their profiles for the sake of a bunch of crippled children ... Eugene followers of the Web foots were in an extremely frus trating situation last Saturday. Here the Oregon-Nebraska fracas was' the TV Game of the Week BUT no TV in Eugene ... So you found a number of folk from the Lane County metropolis heading north to rent video-equipped mo tels in the Salem area . . . Maybe six bucks rental for a couple hours of screen-peering. But most of 'em likely would have dished out ten times that amount for the privilege ... Mel Allen and Lindsay Nelson did a fine job in the TVing of the Nebraska contest But Mel, a product of the eastern sea board, had a fault in common with most of the rest of 'em when he insisted on calling Len Casanova's men the AR-egons . . . Incidentally, the eloquent Allen again will be in on the World Series 'casting next week . , .

At least not until the -one of last night cools off. Even Matchmaker Elton Owen deems the "triples" too tough on rasslers and fans alike. Last night's wound up in the grandaddy of all riots at the Ferry Street Garden. And for a' time it appeared that it would take half the village police force to again restore peace. The Tony Ross-Luther Lindsay- John Henning team was doing bat tle with the Eric Pederson-Jack O'Riley-Red Vagnone trio. It was the first triple tag teamer ever held here. And it was out of con trol of both Referees Harry El liott and Danno McDonald almost from the beginning. All six grapplers were in the ring in a maze of mayhem when Henning was declared winner over Vagnone for the first falL Ross took one of the worst beat ings about the face ever seen in the local ring all three members of the meanie side took turns tee ing off on him. When blood spurted from Ross wounds, the packed crowd grew irate. No fireworks took place af ter Ross was finally pinned for the second fall, and the three vil lains remained in their corner throughout the intermission. Ross had to be carried from the premises, a bloody mess. Doctor's orders kept him from returning for the third falL When the three started teeing off on Henning in the final fall, the more exciteable fans started climbing into the ring to help out Then is when the most rip-snorting few minutes in Armory his tory took place.', . Fans, rasslers and referees were swinging, bouncing and flying all over the ring. One fan was physi cally thrown out over the top rope. Another and a little guy at that had Pederson down and was giving the blond bicepper a real tussle, as other fans hammered on him from outside the ring. The uproar brought Ross boom ing back into the ring to join the melee, and he more than got even with his assailants. In fact just bout everyone did before it was through. Vagnone and - O'Riley finally had enough of the tmadvertised war. and took off on the dead AUdDim f .. ' - - '' $ ' f - . MAX SCHM E LING Should Caution LaStana run, leaving Pederson behind. The Ross-Henning-Lindsey trio then pommeled Eric until he too jump ed the ropes and took off. That left it easy for the poor, bedraggled refs who had nothing left to do but declare the cleanies winners. Two fans were battered and bloodied when it was all over. So was Ross and Elliott Others had a few bruises. In the prelims, strictly tame compared to the mainer, Vittorio Ochoa downed Paul DeGalles and Greg Jarque'and McDonald went to a draw.

Preps, Silverton Blaze Trail to 40-18 Win Before 1,000 Fans ESTACADA (Special) ML AngeFs Preps and the Silverton Silver Foxes led the Souths to one-sided 40-18 victory over the Norths Tuesday, night in the annual Willamette Valley League Foot ball jamboree, played before slightly more than 1,000 fans and stu dents. Mt Angel, led by a flashy halfback named Darrell Fershweiler, sent the visitors roaring tar to the front with a 20-0 verdict over Canby's Cougars in their quarter of action after Woodburn's Bull dogs and the Estacada Rangers had opened the proceedings by battling to a 6-6 deadlock in the No. 1 period. "Molalla's Indians got the Norths back into contention by blanking the Dallas Dragons 12-0 in the third quarter of action, but Silver ton sewed it up for the Souths via a 14-0 decision over Sandy's Pioneers, as Quarterback Dean Stiles took the limelight ML Angel's Fershweiler, prob ably the outstanding back on the field Tuesday night, tallied all three of the Preps' touchdowns on runs of 20, three and 45 yards. Tom Traeger booted the two ML Angel extra points. Jerry Miles scampered 65 yards for Canby in a drive that sputtered out on the enemy 12. A 31-yard pass play from Del Kiggins to brother Ron Kiggins accounted for Estacada's touch down in the initial period. Wood burn came back to knot it up via an aerial from Jerry Plank to Gene Ficek, good for 70 yards. Neither team uncorked any other material threats. A 34-yard pass involving the same Kiggins com bine set up the Estacada scoring aerial. The entire drive was good for 74 yards. Molalla Back Scores Len Feyre plunged three yards, capping a 43-yard march, to give Molalla the first score against Dallas. The second Indian six pointer resulted when Ray Howell bulled five yards after Molalla took over on downs on the enemy 23. The Dragons best drive of the mix, to the Molalla 20, was ruined by a fumble. Stiles passed 13 yards to Jim Black for the initial Silverton score against Sandy and the Silver Foxes' quarterback went three yards for the second TD, culmin ating a 54-yard thrust Stiles also kicked both Silverton conversions, One strong Sandy drive was throttled by a fumble and the Pioneers also were hurt by a blocked punt The Jamboree served as a warmup for the Willamette Val ley League campaign openers Friday night which finds Molalla at Dallas, Mt Angel at Canby, Sandy at Silverton and Estacada at Woodburn. Bears' Defense Satisfies Coach BERKELEY, Calif, to The defense of the California Golden Bears is beginning to shape up .to the point where some attention can be paid to offense. Coach Lynn Waldorf opined Tuesday. Waldorf said he would hold an offensive scrimmage Wednesday after working the Bears on defense for two days. Waldorf said that Jim Kotler, tackle who broke bis finger in the Baylor game last week, will not be able to play against Oregon State at Portland Saturday. bit High Individual Game Lloyd Jones of Stevens Jewelers. 228.

Equal National Central Glub Main Factor Stayton Bows 12-0; Crusaders Tally Six Points for Norths Sam Bell's Central Panthers were the big factors Tuesday night as the Souths knocked off the Norths 12-6 in the annual Capitol League Grid Jamboree at Waters Park. The six-school affair was enacted before a turn out of around 600 persons. The 'Jam' consisted of three 20 minute contests, split into 10 minute halves. The first mix of the evening saw the Panthers top Stay ton's Eagles 12-0, with a 75-yard scor ing run by John Clark the big feature. In 'fact that was the longest jaunt of the entire eve ning. In the program's second clash Leo Grosjacques' Sacred Heart Cardinals of the North scrapped to a scoreless tie with Bob Stewart's Cascade Cougars. Bob Fuhk's Salem Academy Crusaders tallied the only points for the Norths in the final en counter as they tripped Philo math 6-0. Central, which appears to .be one of the strong threats for the Capitol League crown in its mai den season as a member of the circuit's grid lineup, saw first Clark go the 75 yards to put 'em to the fore against Fred Gra ham's Eagles. They added pad ding to their margin in the sec ond ten minutes of the fray when Bob Nelson flipped a pass to End John Freeman that was good for 55 yards for the second touch down. McCIain Scores Salem Academy and Philomath, penalized 'frequently, gained lit tle yardage in their opening ten minutes, but in the second "half Quarterback Virgil Fadenrecht's passing sparked the Crusaders in a 75-yard thrust that was capped when Halfback Kenny McCIain scored from the two. Sacred Heart's best opportuni ty in the scrap with Cascade came fairly early in their engage ment on a 40-yird drive down to the enemy 20. A pass intercep tion ruined the effort Cascade marched to the Cardinal 10 late in the contest, only to be stopped by the clock. At the end of each "game- Tuesday night, the succeeding foes took over the ball at the point where play was ended in the preceding mix.

A meeting to discuss the Brownie situation is scheduled for Sunday, Sept. 27, in New York. A four-man committee met in Chicago recently with American League president Will Harridge and Bill Veeck, pres ident of the Browns, and announced it would recommend the Browns' franchise be moved out of SL Louis. "There are at least three clubs who definitely will vote against moving the Browns to Baltimore, ' the informant said. "Clark Griffith of Washington and the Macks of Philadelphia don't, want Veeck, in between them, under any circum stances. Don't expect the Yankees to vote for Baltimore, either. They've been trying to peddle the Kansas City franchise off to Veeck, who wants no part of it. ' "The way I understand It, the Philadelphia Athletics are eying Baltimore themselves for a pos sible move there in the future. "It's my guess the Browns will be in Toronto nexwfear. I'd say it is a 60-40 proposition right now between Toronto . and Montreal, with the odds favoring Toronto. The informant scoffed at any idea the Browns, or any other major league franchise, would be shifted to the Pacific Coast this winter.
