0 e Eagle Point Plays Talent This Evening Eaale Point Eaele Point high will be host to Talent this eve ning 'in a non-league football fracas. The Eagles will gun for a win after losing to the Bulldogs for the last two years. Particular objective of the EP eleven will be to prevent a recurrence of last year's outcome. Talent won the tangle 20 to 19 after trailing 19 to- 0. Coach Stan Smith of the Eagles indicated that a lack of spirit has been pestering his club. There's been an effort, therefore, to build up enthusi asm. And at the last EP practice on Friday some results were in evidence. Well Rested Eagle Point hasn't seen action since beating Henley 19 to 13 on October 7 and is well rested and in good physical shape for the hassle. Talent, on the other hand, played last Thursday, blanking Jacksonville 20 to 0. Possible starters for Eagle Iint are Norm Hooper and Rons Kelson, ends: Roy Reaean and Dean Tibbets, tackles: Jim ' Bunker and Dick "Wallace. . guards: Larry Dodenhoff, center; Gale Friend, quarterback: Jonn Bunker or Adrian Elrod, left half; Errol Tresham, right half, and Jack Greb, fullback. Game time is 8 p.m. Forty-Niner Club Ready To Show Fans At Home Detroit, Mich. U.R) The San Francisco Forty-Niners headed for home today, ready to show the fans they've found the stride that could bring them the divi sional title in the National Foot ball League. 8 The reason for their enthusi asm was a 27-24 victory over the Detroit Lions before 51,438 rain drenched fans in Briggs Stadium yesterday. It was the second win of the season for the team. It prompted Detroit Coach Buddy Parker to say: "I think the Forty Niners are going to win it in the division with the luck they're having." Slrader Proud of Team Coach Red Strader thought they had. While the Forty Niners shouted jubilantly in the dress ing rbom after the game, he said the team was "tremendous in the clutch.e "What I liked most of all about them was that they didn't lose their poise, even when they were 18 poigjs behind," he said. "We had plenty of bad breaks ' and it was an uphill fight. They show ed real caliber playing above their misfortunes on the field. I'm certainly proud of them."- Led er man Seeks Reinstatement Seattle, Wash. (U.R) Sandy Lederman, Washington's star passer of two seasons ago, today sought to be taken back on the squad in the wake of a dispute with Coach Johnny Cherberg which ended with the southpaw being told to turn in his suit last Friday. "I said ' a lot of things I shouldn't have," Lederman said yesterday. "I'm asking the coach to take me back so I can start all over and try to make the trav eling squad." Lederman had a great year as a sophomore with the Huskies in 1953 but broke his leg early last season and was unable to push Steve Roake out of the starting quarterback spot this year. Lederman, declaring that his dismissal came because he was "burned up," added "I've a lot of pride and was . disappointed that I wasn't playing more." I don't want to go into any public discussion of my situation." '., . SPECIAL CLOSE OUT . NEW U.S. loYAL GOODYEAR FIRESTONE 6.70x15 6.50 x 16 Limited Quantity! COURTESY CHEVROLET "9th AND BARTLETT STS. PHONE 2-6115 College of Pacific Trips Oregon Stater Eleven 13-7 Corvallis U.R) Coach Tom my Prothro today began ready ing his Oregon State football team for Saturday's homecoming game against Washington State here with hopes that injured reg ulars Norm Thiel and Howard Buttgenbach will be ready for duty. The two linemen sat out last Saturday night's 13-7 loss to Col lege of Pacific as the Stockton, Calif., club scored two second half touchdowns. Some 22,500 fans, sitting in ideal night football weather, saw the host Tigers score their third consecutive victory. After losing to Stanford and Purdue, COP has now defeated, in order, Cincinnati, Idaho and Oregon State. ' Trailing 7-0 at the intersmis sion, Coach Jack (Moose) Myers' young team came back to take the ball on the second exchange of downs and move 29 yards all on the ground in eight plays to get back in the ball game. Junior Reynosa, a junior col lege transfer, scored the touch down on a one-yard quarterback sneak. And Ken Swearingen, whose 36-yard punt runback set up the touchdown, booted the SIPdDIHflrS DUCK DUMPING A BEAR University of California Bear quar terback Hugh Maguire (20) is tripped up by Oregon Duck Hill strom after four yard gain in the first quarter of game at Port land, Oregon.' Oregon won, 21-0. . ' Washington, By SCOTT BAILLIE United Press Sports Writer It's Washington against Stan ford at Seattle this week in a tangle of unpredictable PCC football teams which could steal the show on the coast even if both squads did lose in their last outings. The Indians unleashed an amazing second half comeback against seventh - ranked UCLA last Saturday before knuckling under, 21-13, to a Bruin hoard which did all its scoring in the first period and seemed des tined to match last year's 72-0 slaughter. Baylor knocked Washington from its undefeated perch with a 13-7 triumph but the Huskies remained tied with UCLA for first place in the Pacific Coast conference. Each as a 3-0 league record. UCLA will meet an Iowa team which was shaken up somewhat Tough Conference Foes Dim Hope of Spartans Chicago (U.R) Duffy Daugh erty has no Rose Bowl aspira tions for his Michigan State foot ball team today, despite an upset win over Notre Dame, because "we've got too many tough con ference clubs to play." The chances for the Spartans to get a second trip to the post season classic were pretty dim anyhow because Daugherty's club, though rapidly developing into one of the Midwest's best, plays only six Big Ten games and already has lost one, to Michigan. Thus the teams which play seven conference foes, and par ticularly Michigan and Wiscon sin, stand a much better chance to finish at the top of the pack and get a bowl chance. CAROLINE REPLACES Montreal (U.R) -r-Quarter-back Chuck Hunsinger, who played his collegiate ball at the University of Florida, has been released by the Montreal Alou ettes of the Big Four Football Union and his place has been taken by J. C. Caroline, former University of Illinois All-Amer-ican. Use Tribune Want Ads The Community Biggest Marketplace conversion. Swanson Tallies Midway in the final period, COP took over on its own 28. From there it moved to a score in 15 plays with fullback Lynn Swanson going off-tackle two yards for the touchdown. This came with three minutes and 20 seconds left in the game. Oregon State's sensational sophomore tailback Joe Francis then tried to get his ball club back in the game with a series of desperation passes. All fell in complete and COP took over on Oregon State's 33 yard line with less than a minute to play. That was the ball game. After battling evenly for the first 29 minutes and 45 seconds, Oregon State went into the lead. With 15 seconds remaining, Fran cis threw a 14-yard pass to Nick Mason who was standing in the end zone. Sam Wesley converted, giving OSC its 7-0 intermission advantage. COP Quarterback Reynosa passed only six times during the evening, completing three. The Tigers' game was an unspectacu lar land affair which saw Swearingen, who weighs 165, and Dewey Tompkins, who tips in at 148, alternating off left and right guard most of the evening. Indians Vie I itself by being tied in the last minute by Purdue, 20-20. South ern California takes on unhappy California-and Washington State plays Oregon State in two other Pacific Coast conference games. Oregon plays Arizona next Sat urday night in Tucson. Jim Bryan Cops Big Car Mantle Sacramento, Calif. (U.R) Jimmy Bryan, of Phoenix, Ariz., made the faiost of opponents' motor trouble and a crackup yesterday to win the National Championship AAA big car race for the third year in a row. Bryan went from fourth to first in the last 18 laps of the 100-mile race at the state fair grounds one-mile dirt track. His time was one hour, 9:36 and his average speed was 82.6 miles per hour. Johnny Thomson, of East Springfield, Mass., took second and Bob Sweikert, Speedway City, Ind., last year's Indian apolis 500-mile winner, was third. WALCOTT FILM DEBUT Hollywood, Calif.

Anderson Keeps Title; Sets Record Munich, Germany (U.R) Paul Anderson, the 22-year-old Toccoa, Ga., Hercules, kept the "strongest man in the world" title in the U. S. today even though Russia won the interna tional weight-lifting crown for the second straight year. Anderson set a new world record by lifting a total of l,127Vi pounds in the heavy weight division Sunday but even with that victory, the U. S. won only three gold medals while the Soviets copped four. The other two American win ners were Tommy Kono of Sac ramento, Calif., who won the light heavyweight title by lift ing 957 pounds, and Pete George of Akron, O., who captured the middleweight crown by lifting a total of 891 pounds. Bradford Second By lifting a world record 408 pounds in the two arm press, 319 pounds in the snatch and 400V2 pounds in the clean and jerk, the 342-pound Anderson erased the previous world record total of 1,072 pounds lifted by Norbert Shemansky of Detroit, the 1954 titlist who did not com pete this year. Jim Brodford of York, Pa., was runnerup to Anderson in the heavyweight class with a total of 1,045 pounds lifted. The Russians, realizing they had no one to compete with An derson, did not enter the compe tition in the heavyweight divi sion, while the Americans did not compete in the featherweight and lightweight classes.

BIST HEAT LSaUU C of I Tops Willamette; Badgers Win ' By UNITED PRESS Willamette University foot ballers didn't mean to, but they made it a happy homecoming on the College of Idaho campus in Caldwell Saturday night by bowing to the Coyotes 20-13. . It was only the seventh time in 21 starts against the Salem team that the Coyotes have emerged victorious. The see-saw contest was final ly decided midway in the fourth quarter with a two-yard plunge by Idaho Fullback Gary Collins. At Forest Grove Saturday night, the Pacific Badgers rode two first half touchdowns to a 14-7 non-league win over Port land State. A five-yard drive by Duane Baker was good for Pacific's first touchdown and a one-yard sprint by Larry Gehrts added the clincher.

(U.R) Po lice today were attempting to identify a badly decomposed body of a young man found last Saturday on Sand island near the mouth of the Columbia riv er.

Three men are still missing from Columbia riv er salmon derby drownings, but Maltman said the man's clothing did not match that worn by the fishermen. The body was of a young man wearing khaki pants, a forest green timber cruise jacket, blue cadet shoes with foam rubber soles and argyle socks. He was brown-haired and about 5 feet 10 inches tall.
