Stanford U landed three members of the Oregon Shrine All-Star

South Salem, and the other is Jim Sinnerud, Beayerton High's fine

that Burkland would forego col
legiate football. Apparently not

provide a revival of the once
famous "Gas House Gang" at St.

might be done. But it takes no

have quite a time trying to find

XFL's fourth best rusher.
To answer quite " few questions concerning professional football,
both former Oregon quarterbacks Norm Van Brockhn and George
Shaw will oppose one another not only once, but twice this season.
Van Brocklin's Rams play Shaw's Colts at Baltimore November 20.
The return match in Los Angeles is booked for December 4 . . .
Speaking of the pro gridders, Van Brocklin of the Rams, Shaw of
the Colts and Bill Austin of the Giants seem to get all the print
ed accolades these days. But two more grads of this state's col
legiate ranks are doing better than somewhat in the; play-for-pay
circuit also. They are Dave Mann, the former OSC'ers now with
the' Chicago Cards, and Herm Clark, the Hawaiian behemoth who
also played at Corvallis and who is now a tackle with the Chicago
Bears. Ma1"1 hasn't only developed into quite a running threat, along
with Ollie Maltson in the 'Cards' backfield, but is also averaging 42.7
yards in punting, third best in the NFL.
Shaw 'Batting Almost .500 as Fasser., r
Shaw has in his first three games completed 48.9 per cent
of his passes, and is averaging 8.02 yards per completion, ac
cording to the latest figures from the NFL bureau. This ranks
him fourth best passer in the league. Cleveland's Otto .Graham,

A Bill McHenry recovery of a

helped to set up the first OCE
score on the visitors' 36.
In the second quarter EOCE
tallied on a one-yard plunge by
Dick Sherrell after a 91 yard
drive. This time Quinn's kick was

Both Teams Score
In the third quarter both clubs
again scored. EOCE drove 64
yards with Smith going the final
six on a quarterback'eption. Paul
Riley blocked Quinn's attempted
PAT kick. OCE's Wyman Gem

yards and a touchdown. Larry
Buss kicked the PAT.
OCE got their winning margin
on a play that caught their op
ponents flat-footed. Riley went 25

time but it was not needed.

SEATTLE (l The Bears of
Baylor sifted like flickering phan
toms through Washington's previ
ously airtight defenses Saturday
and whipped the Pacific Coast Con
ference leaders 13-7 in their inter-
sectional football clash;
Washington counted first and
looked so strong in its 43-yard I
drive to the tally that the crowd cf
42.000 thought the Huskies were
on their way to an easy decision.
The icebreaker came in the sec
ond period after Baylor had
checked one Washington challenge
inches from the goalline when end
Tony DeGrazier captured a Wash
ington fumble.
It was a fumble by Baylor which
started Washington on its touch
down drive. End Corky Lewis
grabbed the free ball on Baylor's
43 and in seven plays Washington
had its counter. Steve . Roake
plunged the last foot ; and Dean
Derby converted.
Baylor finally got its attack go
ing late in the half. Starting from
its own 13, quarterback Bobby
Jones mixed his plays like a maai
cian thrusting always at the weak
ness in the desperately-shifting de
fense. He piloted the Bears H7

times they had the ball.
But the Indians, recovering sud

roaring back like a different ball
club to the screaming delight of
52,000 fans toj give the Bruins the
shock of their lives.
A pair of touchdowns in the third
quarter were the best the underdog
Indians could do, but they con
trolled the bail throughout the en
tire second half and were on the
Bruin three when the gun barked
to end it. I
Quarterback John Brodie, sud
denly a top notch passer, and scat

guns in the Indians resurgence.

the first. Mike Raftery kicked the

fleet backs ran panting California
into exhaustion here Saturday
night 1 and scored a 21-0 victory,
their first Pacific Coast Conference
.win of the season. .
FulibackMack Morris, a 10-sec-ond
100-yard dash man. raced to
two touchdowns and his replace
ment, Fred Miklancic, plunged
over for the third.
California never posed a serious
threat. The visitors once pene-'
trated to the Oregon 22. But (hat
came on a drive that took 11 plays
to go 20 yards, and the march
sputtered to a halt there.
At the start, it appeared, that
neither team would get going.
They went through almost the en- .
tire first quarter without a first
down: and exchanged punts seven
times.
Morris Scores
But a 24-yard California punt
gave Oregon the ball on the Cal
ifornia 26 and Oregon seized -the 1
opportunity. Four plays moved the
ball to the 14, and from there
Morris took a pitchout and ram
bled around left end to a touch
down. Two California tacklers met him
at the 5, but Morris had full speed
up and he simply pushed them
back-with him into the end zone.
That was on the first play of
the second quarter and by half
time,' Oregon held a 14-0 lead.
The second score came on a 78-
yard drive right after California
had made its move to the Oregon
22. It took just six plays with
Morris reeling off a key 14-yard
run to the California 1. From
there Miklancic punched over. -Reserves
Play -
The final score came at the
start of the third quarter. Oregon
took: the opening second half kick
off and moved 63 yards in 11
plays to a touchdown. Once again
Morns provided most of the yard
age in the march, climaxing .nat
ters by slipping through the line
the final yard. -
Oregon reserves played much of
the remaining time.
With California chasing futilely
after Morris and the fleet half
backs. Dick James and Jim Shan
ley, Oregon seldom turned to the
air. : There was only one pass in
the three scoring drives and that
one was a surprise toss by James
who rarely throws the ball. End
Bill Tarrow caught it for a 36-yard
gain in. Oregon's second touch
down march.
Cal ; Tries Passes
California could not get its
ground game going and surpris
ingly was reluctant to try passing.
Late in the contest, the Califor
nians did turn more to the air
but j for the game completed only
four of 13.
Oregon outgained California oa
the ground 201-108 and in the air,
47-37.
The result left California win-
less in the conference. In its previ
ous conference game California
tied Washington State 20-20. Ore
gon has lost to Southern California
and Washington in previous con
ference games.
