Rich hot through a gap between Baker's guard Alan Heilner (arm outstretched) and right end. Bend's line enabled Bruin backs to move the ball almost at wilL Team effort produces upset, coaches extol Bends line Led by a top effort up front, the Bend High School Lava Bears turned on the bone crunching, pround - eating pow er at new Bruin Field Saturday to post a crucial 7-0 Intcrmoun tain Conference victory and up set the second rung-riding Ba ker Bulldogs. Bend's Bears ran roughshod over the Bulldogs for three quarters, and then had to hang on for dear life in the final minutes. Coach Tom Winbig ler's Bruins amassed 304 yards net rushing from scrimmage to 118 for the visitors. Most of Ba ker's ground gain came in those final, frantic minutes. One Bend back came into his own, Saturday, lie was Kirk Ward, a halfback turned full. who time and again performed Bend's savage ball - carrying chores. It was a tremendous of fensive effort for Ward and the whole Bruin line, who for three quarters went through the Bull dog legions at will. Bend Line Good Baker showed little ability to handle the Bend line, who turn ed in even a better perform ance on defense. Coaches Win bigler, Jack Lutz, Hoot Moore nnd Chuck Hudson attributed the victory to the Bruin de fense. With the exception of two occasions, Baker was able to do little against the Lava Bears. Bend's tally came early in (he third quarter. It all started with the kickoff that commenc ed the second half. Bend kicked off to Baker, and Bulldog Mack finrdncr took it on the 20 and swung right. After about a 10 yard romp he was met hard by two Bruins, The impact jarred tho ball loose. Alert Bear Mike Metke fell on it on the Bulldog 32. Rich Scoots Bend halfback Jerry Rich, w h o demonstrated Saturday that he could scoot, then shot a gap in the Baker line, cut right and raced 27 yards before be ing stopped. This gave Bend the ball on the Baker 3. Kirk Ward then boomed over weak side tackle for three yards and six points. Jerry Welle booted the extra point, and Bend was out in Iront by what turned out to be the final margin, 7-0. Bonn got into scoring position several oilier times, but killing penalties, bad calls, and the clock stifled them all. Baker Coach Kd Schcnk said after the game "Bend tried to give us the ball games several times." And dial's just about it. Sel dom does one see a team so completely overrun the other and then turn right around and nearly hand them the contest. A fumble ruined the first drive into Baker territory. But the second drive was deep, penetrating and seemingly un stoppable until quarterback Jer ry Welle, afler moving through the Bulldogs on the ground at will, decided to pass. He faded back but the blitz was on and he was decked for a 14 yard loss. An illegal procedure pen ally slopped another brief drive by the Lava Bears. Bend then got its last shot at paydirt in the second half. Ward R.imblcs Ward began ripping off large chunks of yardage right through the middle of the Baker line, and in less than a minute Bend had covered 84 yards and had the ball resling (with seconds remaining) on the BuSnr 0. i (& Time was running out. Bend had to score quick. Quarterback Vetle fired two incomplete passes, before he threw a third one to halfback Jim Tye. Tye went down and out in the end zone towards the west sideline. Wetle fired a second too early. Tye dove for the ball but could not get it. After Ward's TD very early in the third stanza, Bend came back with anollicr assault. Two penalties hampered the going, but the Bruins still overcame the deficits for first downs. Penalties Hurt Eventually Bend's ground-eating attack moved deep into Ba ker territory. This time it was a Bulldog red dog tn.it put an end to it. Ward was caught for an eight yard loss. Bend gained 14 on the thus required 18, but turned it. over on downs. Penalties figured in all of Bend's failures to capitalize on sustained drives. Late in the final quarter, however, it was Baker's turn to catch lire. The Bulldogs began Gabriel goes distance as Rams win 27-24 LOS ANGELES (UPD-Coach Harland (Swede) Svare of the Los Angeles Barns is probably pinching himself today to see if he's not just dreaming. Swede, old boy, it's true you got your first victory as Ram head coach Sunday by a 27-24 score over the Minnesota Vik ings. The win ended an eight-game Ram losing streak dating back lo 1062. Actually it was the first Ram win in 13 games. The only break in the streak was a 24-24 lie with the same Vikings last Nov. 25. Heroes of the viclory were: Key Field Goals D a n n v Villanueva who kicked a 27-yard field goal in the fourth quarter to tie the score at that same 24-24 and then kicked another 27-yarder to win it. Roman Gabriel who went all the way at quarterback, threw one pass for a touch down, ran for another and con nected on 12 of 26 pass attempts for 202 yards gained. The Ham defensive unit which threw Viking quarter back Kran Tarkenlon for losses totaling 102 yards. Rookie fullback Ben Wilson, all 231 pounds of him, who proved once again that a good big man is better than a good little man, and gained 71 yards on 13 carries for an average of 4.61. In the dressing room after the game, the Rams seemed in a state of shock. They did not appear elated. Svare nervously chain-smoked cigarettes and smiled wanly as Ram president Pan Reeves shook his hand and said. "I've been waiting a long time for this one." Said Svare to sports writers: "That little Tarkenton scared me for just about all 60 min utes...! must have had seven or eight heart attacks out there." Tarkenlon, one of the great est scramblers in tho National Football League, threw two touchdown passes, a 57-yarder to Jerrv Reichow and a seven i5ntttr 'to fullback Bill Brown. to hit the Bend flanks and quarterback Mike Durgan be gan to move the ball on quick sneaks. Bend's defense began to weaken. When the dust cleared the Bulldogs had the ball first down on the Bend 14. To quote an old adage, "when the going got tough, the tough got going . . ." And that was exactly the case of the Bruin line. Bend Line Holds With the ball on the Bend 14, Durgan tried the. right side of the Bruin line but was boomed down for a yard loss. Durgan then heaved a pass that fell in to no man's land. Gardner then faded left and deep and the Bruin rush was on him. Stuart Karpslein leaped upon him and slapped the ball down the mo ment it left Gardner's hand. It was fourth down and 11 and the ball was on the Bend 15. It was do or die for Baker. Durgan swept left and outraced two Bruins at the line of scrim mage and another before he was wrestled out of bounds on the five yard line. The referees look a look and the Bulldogs were a yard short of a first down. Bend took over on its live. Bend began to move the ball out. A clipping penalty. nowever, moved the ball back and the Bruins were forced lo punt. Durgan made a "fair calch" on the Bruin 36. There was time for two plays. Duane Barton hurled a long bomb, but it was off target. Durgan then went deep and heaved another but Mike Clark picked it off for the Bruins and the game was over. 'Team Effort' Bend ran up 13 first downs. Baker tallied 8. Baker had the edge In passing. The Bulldogs threw for 62 yards. Bend cover ed 9. Coach Winbigler cited no par-! liculnr ball players for out standing play. He said, "it was a great team effort. . .1 think we did even belter on defense . . .1 was particularly pleased with the way the line blocked on offense." Going into the contest, Baker was in sole possession of sec ond place. Bend's victory mov ed the Bruins into a four-way deadlock. It's now Baker. The Dalles, Hermislon, and Bend all knotted up for the Inter mountain ninnertin spot. Each has four wins and two losses. Pendleton is way out front in first place with a 6-0 win-loss record. Dave McDonald wins Pacific Grand Prix MONTEREY, Calif. (IT1) -Pave MacPonald of El Monte. Calif., made it two in a row Sunday by driving his Cooper Cobra to victory in the fourth annual Pacific Grand Prix at the twisting Laguna Seca course. MacPonald. who captured the Riverside Grand Prix last week, raced his car around the 100 lap, 1.9 mile course Sunday in two hours and nine minutes for an average, speed of R3.2 miles per hour. A crowd estimated at 70.000 watched the performance. The El Monte driver suffered severe blisters on his left hand trying to keep his car from slip ping out of third gear during a good part of the race, CRUNCHING DECOY Kirk Ward, Bruin fullback, turned in a powerful running game for the Bears Saturday.

Ohio Slate suffered a let down at Southern California on Saturday, losing, 32-3, and Navy had more trouble than expected before downing Virginia Mili tary Institute, 21-12. The Pitt-Navy battle very well could decide this year's eastern champion. The rest of the top 10, wilh the possible exception of 10th- ranked Northwestern, enjoy a break against weak opponents next week.

First victory 49 ers By United Press International Success came simultaneously Sunday to Lamar McHan, who was on the scrap-heap of pro football only three weeks ago, and to the San Francisco Forty Niners, the team that ransomed him for $100. McHan engineered the upset of the National Football League season in directing the Forty Niners to a stunning 20-14 vic tory that knocked the Chicago Bears from the undefeated ranks and threw the NFL's Western Division race into a tie. This was the Forty Niners' first triumph of the season and no team in the league cheered it more enthusiastically than McHan 's old team mates, the Green Bay Packers. By drub bing the St. Louis Cardinals, 30-7, the Packers moved into a first-place tie with the Bears. Green Bay and Chicago both have 5-1 records. In the Eastern Division, there was no stopping the Cleveland Browns as thev defeated the ! Philadelphia Eagles, 31-7, for a ' spotless 6-0 record. The New 1 York Giants remained two games behind the lead by beat ! ing the Dallas Cowboys, 37-21. I Won First Game I The Los Angeles Rams, like ' the Forty Niners, won their j first game of the year, edging the Minnesota Vikings, 27-24: the Pittsburgh Steelers rallied j to beat the Washington Red ; skins, 38-27, and the Baltimore Colts came from behind to de ! feat the Detroit Lions, 25-21. j Probably no result this sea i son, however, has staggered the league like the victory by the down-at-the-heels Forty Niners over the rough-tough Bears. McHan, a failure wilh three NFL clubs (Cardinals, Packers and Colts) during his 10 pro campaigns, won the quarter back assignment because John Brodie was injured and Bob Waters was found wanling. McHan had been claimed for the $100 waiver price when let go by the Colls three weeks ago and hardly had lime to become fully accustomed to the Forty Niners' offense such as it was. Yet the 30-year-old Arkansas Traveler called a masterful game, handing off to San Fran cisco backs for a total of 192 yards to riddle a Chicago de fense that had yielded a total of 380 to five stronger oppo nents. Threw One TD Pass McHan completed 10 of 20 passes for 141 yards and one touchdown.

At St. Louis, the methodical Packers scored on each of their first five series of downs to make their "game-of-the-week" strictly no-contest. Green Bay controlled the ball for 48 plays during the first half, compared to 19 for the Cardinals, and out gained the Cards, 238 yards to 58. Jimmy Brown set an NFL rush record and Frank Ryan threw four touchdown passes in the rout against Philadelphia.
