Andy Kerr Quits Coach Post At East College Lebanon, Pa., Feb. 13 (U.R) Andy Kerr, "inventor" of grid iron razzle - dazzle and most famed football coaches of all times, resigned as head coach at little Lebanon Valley college to day, ending a glorious career that spanned 36 years.

Trapshoot Feature Of Oregon Elks Meet A five-club trapshoot at the Medford Gun club Saturday was a feature of the Oregon Elks mid-winter meeting during the week end. Medford gunners came out on top with a 704 count. Oreeon City's five-man team was second with 685. Other scores were Klamath Falls 680. Lebanon 652 and Grants Pass 638. Participants shot 100 times from 16 yards plus a 50 handi cap. Main sessions of the Elks con clave were at Ashland. day over Brackenridee park's narrow fairways and nip Jimmy Demaret of Ojai, Cat, by a stroke. Snead won with a 265 for the 72 holes. And, except for the elements he conceivably would have tied or broken still another PGA rec ord the one of 62 strokes for an 18-hole round. He missed a 14-footer by inches on No. 17 and then found a hailstorm waiting for him on No. 18. As the hailstones scattered most of the gallery of 8,000, Snear tried to ram home a 40 foot putt for the possible 61, but "it was like trying to putt in a gravel bed," he said, and he missed it and the next one from two feet out. Bests PGA Mark The three-putted green still gave him a 126 for the final 36 holes, besting by three strokes a PGA mark set on the same 6.400-yard course in 1944 by Sam Byrd. While he missed tying the tour nament record of 264, Snear's 19-under-par round enabled him to become the second man in the tourney's 23-year history to win the event twice. Wild Bill Mel horn was the other, back in 1928 and 1929. Demaret, in finishing second, marked the third time in four years he has been the runner-up here.
