Maglioli Goes Ahead In Road Race Diirango, Mexico (U.R) The "battle of Ferraris' roared on to day in the Pan-American road race as Bill Hill of Santa Monica, Calif., and Italy's Umberto Ma glioli continued their gruelling dash to the Texas border. Maglioli held more than a six minute lead over his California rivals in the unlimited sports car class as the reduced field set eff on a 25-mile lap to Parral this morning. They faced another leg of 186 miles this afternoon that would carry them to within 224 miles of their objective. The five-day race across Mex ico will conclude tomorrow at Ciudad Juarez, across the border from El Paso, Tex.

Brown's team, climaxing a two-month climb, grabbed the Eastern lead Sunday for the first time this season by shutting out the Philadelphia Eagles, 6-0, in a game studded with sparkling defensive plays and flying' fists. The Browns started the day a half-game behind New York and took first place by the same mar gin when the Lbs Angeles Rams edged the Giants, 17-16, in an other roughie. .. Then Brown, whose defensive unit has allowed its five rivals a total of 30 points, threw down his challenge , to the. Giants for Cleveland's invasion of the Polo Grounds next Sunday. "Our players are winning all the games they need by them selves now," he said. "We don't need other teams to knock off the leaders any more." While Cleveland knocked Philadelphia games off the pace in the East, the Detroit Lions posted a 21-17 victory over the Green Bay Packers and need only two more triumphs to clinch their third straight Western title. The Rams and San Francisco Forty-Niners, who scored a 31-3 Saturday night victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers, remain deadlocked two games . behind Detroit. The Lions and Browns have four more games. The 10 other clubs have three apiece. Ollie Matson did the finest running in Chicago Cardinal his tory, scoring four touchdowns in a 38-16 triumph over the Wash ington Redskins. The Chicago Bears, led by . the passing and play-calling of rookie Zeke Brat kowski, scored a 28-13 decision over the Baltimore Colts in the other Sunday game. Lou Groza's 10 and 31-yard field goals provided the points for 'Cleveland's 100th victory, but the Brownie defensive unit had to make , a tremendous goal line stand to hold off the crip pled but inspired Eagles. The Eagles had four chances to make a touchdown from the Cleveland one with VA minutes to play. but the Browns, aided by a five- yard penalty Philadelphia drew for delaying the game, held to the delight of 41,531 Cleveland fans. . ; i Same Story The score was bigger but the story was the same at Green Bay. Bobby Layne's third period pass to end Dome Dibble gave the Lions .their victory points. But it took a strong defense and a break to beat the stubborn Packers. Rookie end Max Mc Gee dropped a pass from Tobin Rote in the end zone that would have put Green Bay ahead mid- Read, Meunier, Gemaehlich Unanimously Selected for Jackson B All-Star Crew Halfbacks Stan Read and Laval Meunier, St. Mary's of Medford, and Center - Bob Gamaehlich, Jacksonville, were unanimous choices for the 1954 Jackson County B League all-star foot ball team. . . A 13-man crew was selected by coaches and squads of the five rival schools. Champion St. Mary's and runner-up Rogue River high each place five men on the star team. Talent, Jack sonville and Prospect each got one berth. Four ends and three tackles tied in the voting. Other posi tions had normal complements of players. However, Jack Her burger, Rogue River, was named to two positions, guard and back. way in the final quarter. Howie Ferguson then took a pass from Rote and ran for what would have been a first down but fum- jbled. Jim David recovered to end Packer hopes. Norm Van Brocklin's 27-yard third period touchdown pass to Tom Fears and Les Richter's conversion enabled the Rams to edge the Giants after ex-Ram Ben Agajanian had kicked three second quarter field goals to give New York a 16-10 lead be fore 27,737 fans. Matson ran 62, 79 and 15 yards for touchdowns and also scored on a five yard pass from Lamar McHan as the Cardinals beat Washington before 15,619 Chi cago fans'. - Brathkowski scored once, pitched out to.

That made a total vote of eight bal lots possible for each post That was the total Gemaehlich, Read and Meunier each received.
