Art Luppino
Needs 10 To
Best Husker
New York (U.R) Art Lup
pino, the Arizona sophomore
who is almost certain to be the
nation's top major-college ball
carrier this year, needs to score
only 10 points in his last game
Saturday to become the highest
scorer in the last 34 years.
Luppino has completely out
classed the field by tallying 21
touchdowns and 22 extra points
for a total of 148, NCAA Ser
vice Bureau statistics showed to
day. He scored 10 last Saturday
and needs the. same amount
against Wyoming this week to
surpass the 157-point output of
Nebraska's Bobby Reynolds rec
orded in 1950. No one else has
scored that many since Jim
Leech of VMI set the all-time
major college record of 210 in
1920.
Right now Luppino is No. 9
on the all-time list.
Kick-Off Returns
; The, stocky soph also has the
1954 kickoff -return title wrap
ped up. He has run 574 yards,
more than 100 yards more than
North Carolina State's George
. Marinkov, and all the other con
tenders are through for the
year.
- If it weren't for Luppino in
scoring, though, there would be
a close race in that department.
Penn State's Lenny Moore
wound up with 13 touchdowns
for 78 points, . which is good
enough for second place right
now. But Oklahoma's Buddy
Leake, with 77, - and Army's
Tom Bell, with 72, each play
Saturday. Colorado's Carroll
Hardy is finished with 68 points
but Denver's Rusty Fairly, who
has 67, has two games left.
! Five players who have com
pleted their season have : 11
touchdowns for 66 points
UCLA's Bob Davenport, Colo
rado's John' Bayuk, Minnesota's
Bob McNamara, Oregon's Dick
James and Iowa's Earl Smith.

MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE NINE
Second Session of Independent
Hoop League To Be Held Monday
A second meeting to organize
the Medford Independent Bas
ketball League for the 1954-1955
season will be held next Mon
day night. Exact time and
place will be announced as soon
as arrangements for a meeting
place are arranged.
. One of the best "kick-off"
organizational meetings in re
cent seasons was held last night
at the Medford Armory. About
20 men were at the session de
spite the fog. Seven prospective
teams were represented. Three
others sent reports that they
were interested. It is thought
that sveral groups not heard
from last night may also want
to join.
There was discussion at the
session of limiting the league to
10 teams for 1954-1955 play. It
was decided that attendance of
a team representative at the
Monday session should be man
datory if that team is to get
into the circuit. If more than
10 groups are represented, it is
possible that a larger circuit
may be organized.
A team entry fee of $35 was
set and the clubs will be re
quired to pay a fee of $-1 per
player with $10 team minimum
for shower privileges at the
gymnasium used here. Pay
ment of the fees is requested at
the Monday session and it may
be that the first 10 clubs to lay
their money on the line may be
the league this. season.

Ex-Redskins
Big Help To
Contenders
By EARL WRIGHT .
United Press Sports Writer
The Washington Redskins are
camping at the bottom of the Na
tional Football League's Eastern
Division but, ironically, they
have contributed useful players
to several of the current title con
tenders. '
Don Paul of the Cleveland
Browns, Harry Dowda of the
Philadelphia Eagles, Ray Col
lins of the New York Giants nd
Hall Haynes of the Los Angeles
Rams are among the former Red
skins playing for clubs still in
volved in the division races.'
Paul quit Washington ' when
owner George Preston Marshall
fired Curley Lambeau and made
Joe Kuharich his coach last Au
gust. The Browns, trying to plug
leaks in their defensive back
field, promptly hired Paul. He
has become an important cog in
a defensive unit that has helped
the club take the Eastern Divi
sion lead by allowing its last
five opponents a total of only 30
points. - . : ' .-
Eagles Assembled Cast-Off s
The Eagles assembled a strong
club from a number of cast-offs,
including Dowda. Like Paul,
Dowda is a defensive back. He
caught end Pete Brewster on the
Philadelphia 10 last Sunday to
prevent a Cleveland touchdown
on a pass play. The Browns won,
6-0, but Dowda's defensive play
on Brewster might have made
the difference if the Eagles had
been able to score from inside
the Cleveland; five late in the
game. ,
Collins has been an outstand
ing defensive tackle since he
came to the Giants.
Haynes is a defensive back for
the Rams, who currently are
tied with the Forty-Niners for
second in the Western Division.
Gene Lipscomb, 280-pound
tacKie, is another player the
Rams obtamed from Washing
ton. . . . . r .
Standings Will Improve f
- Most of these ex-Washington
piayers won t get into the cham
pionship game but they will
wind up higher in the standings
than their former Redskin team
mates, who are tied with the Chi
cago Cardinals for last place.
The champion Detroit Lions
and Green Bay Packers, who met
bunaay, open this week's action
with a return game Thanksgiv
ing Day at Briggs Stadium. The
Lions scored a 21-17 victory at

Whitey Ford, Jack Harshman
and Bobby Shantz, three south

in 1955, figured in glowing re
ports today from three different
baseball fronts.
Ford, a 16-game winner with
the Yankees last season, signed
his 1955 contract Wednesday for
an estimated $13,000 and said
he was "looking forward - to a

The little left-hander was 10
pounds overweight at 185 last
season but said he intended to
go South - and "cut down to
about 175" in the spring. ' -
Harshman, who compiled a 14
8 record with the White Sox,
also signed for next season. The
converted first baseman, r who
manager ; Marty Marion feels
can become an 18 or 20-game
winner, had a 2.95 earned run
average and set a hew club rec
