Red Sanders, who was Pro thro's boss once at UCLA, un corked this method of hobbling Brodie's feared . passing attack last Saturday and the strategy paid off with a 14-13 upset. The nifty tosser did connect on nine out of 20 aerials for 176 yards and a touchdown but other than that he was virtually smothered, being tossed for a net loss of 66 yards running. By KEN WHEELER United Press Sports Writer Corvallis, Ore. (U.R) From football oblivion to Rose Bowl contender in two years. That's the picture today as Oregon State headed into the week that in all probability will determine the Pacific Coast conference Rose Bowl entry. Before the season started the seers weren't figuring these Beavers for an upper division finish despite their surprise second place finish a year ago. Today they're pointing to Sat urday's Oregon State-Stanford game winner at Palo Alto as nearly a cinch to play host in Pasadena come New Year's day. Both clubs have a lone blot on their conference records. Coach Tommy Prothro, form er assistant to Red Sanders at UCIJA and in his second year at the Beaver helm, told anyone who would listen before the sea son got under way, "We'll be a better team than last year but one that might not win many games." Six-Thre Record That team won six while los ing three. Even the most partisan Beaver fan admitted, however, that lady luck was with the Orangemen on a couple of those 1955 oytings. But Prothro has a way of get ting the most from his men. From a handful of letteTmen and a group of-eager sophomores he has guided Oregon into promin ence in two short years. Straight single-wing ground power is Prothro's mode of op eration. HVhas a couple of able passers but Oregon State counts its. bread and butter on the ground. Going into the Stanford game, Oregon State holds a five-won and two-lost record for the year. Those two losses came to South ern California 21-12 and Iowa, 14-13. The Beavers hold impres sive wins over Missouri, Cali firnia, Washington State, UCLA and Washington. If they should make it to the 1957 festivities in Pasadena, it would be after an absence of 15 years. The 1941 Beaver team played in the bowl on New Years day of 1942 when the classic ws? transplanted to the East coast; because of the war. . " An under-rated Oregon State team rose up to smack down Duke, 20-6 in that game, with one of the key men in the Duke line-up named Tommy Prothro. Sitting on the Beaver side of the fence now, though, Prothro isn't taking too much "stock in the wave of bowl talk that sur rounds the Oregon State campus. "People got too high on us too quick . . . might be a little ahead of the team," he commented after the Beaver win over Wash ingtr i last Saturday. And Prothro can quote a stack of facts to slow any premature optimism. With only a few experienced men to start the season he has seen their number dwindle to only an even dozen lettermen able to suit up for the remainder of the season. Surrounding the nucleus he has a host of men making their debut in varsity college play. The Beaver record attests to the fact that these men have come along fast but Prothro points out that they are still in their first year of varsity football.

The biggest week end of the 1956 campaign will feature a cli mactic meeting of the unbeatens between Georgia Tech and Ten nessee at Atlanta with a Sugar Bowl bid almost certain to go to the winner. Other star attractions include Texas A&M vs. Southern Metho dist at Dallas, Minnesota vs. Iowa at Minneapolis, and Ore gon State vs. Stapford at Palo Alto, Calif. Both Georgia Tech and Ten nessee have won six straight games this season and rank right behind Oklahoma in the national rankings. The twin terrors of the South have played two mutual opponents. Tennessee beat Duke, 33-20, and clobbered Auburn, 35 7, while Tech downed Auburn. 28-7, and needed a last quarter touchdown by fullback Dickie Mattison to edge Duke, 7-0, last Saturday. Two Bowl Prospects Georgia Tech, incidentally, re portedly is leaning towards ac cepting a Cotton Bowl bid if one is extended so even if Ten nessee loses to the Engineers, the Vols conceivably could still wind up in the Sugar Bowl. Texas A&M and Southern Methodist both are unbeaten in the Southwest Conference, which annually provides the host team for the Cotton Bowl, so their meeting next week end should be a dilly. In the Big Ten Conference, Ohio State (3-0) ranks as the only unbeaten team but is ineli gible for the Rose Bowl junket, so Minnesota (3-0-1) can remain on the road to Pasadena by beat ing Iowa (3-1.) Jayvees Play Grants Pass Medford Senior High school football junior varsity will oppose Grants Pass here this evening. Game time is 7 p.m. It will be the final ruckus for the junior Black Tornado. A pair of seventh grade in tramural football games matching Hedrick and Mc Loughlin Junior high clubs and set for Tuesday have been cancelled because of the sched uling of the use of school facil ities for another purpose. It was not certain this mor ning whether two elementary school games would be play ed this afternoon as slated. Lee Ragsdale, physical educa tion supervisor for Medford schools, said arrangements awaited a report on the wea ther around noon. Cardinals, Giants Keep Up Pro Pace; Cleveland Wins 25 Clubs Retain Perfect Record New York (U.R) Only 25 college football teams remained unbeaten and untied today fol lowing another wave of upsets that claimed 10 schools. Little Lenoir-Rhyne college of Hickory, N. C, a school with only 954 students, topped the list with eight victories. During this stretch Lenoir-Rhyne has accounted for 325 points to the opposition's 57. Six other teams have won eight straight. Wyoming, Oklahoma. Ten nessee, Princeton and Georgia Tech are the only perfect rec ord teams among the major powers. Iowa was the only ma jor school knocked off the list during the week end. The Hawk eyes were beaten by Michigan, 17-14. The surprising Air Force Aca drmy team, in its first season of varsity football, kept right on rolling' along, chalking up its sixth victory in a row by defeat ing Coloroda State, 21-0. Six teams have won seven By EARL WRIGHT United Spress Sports Writer The Chicago Cardinals and New York Giants, keeping wary eyes on a Cleveland Brown team that's beginning to look like its old familiar self, will play for the National Football league's Eastern division leadership next Sunday. The Cardinals and Giants set up a Yankee stadium "natural" by winning Sunday to hit the halfway mark in their cam paigns with identical 5-1 records. The Cardinals whipped the Phil adelphia Eagles, 28-17, on Lamar McHan's four touchdown passes and the Giants edged a crippled but stubborn Pittsburgh Steeler team, 17-14. on Ben Agajanian's 32-yard field goal. The Detroit Lions used a stout defense and two touch down lunges by 250-pound Leon Hart to stretch the league's only perfect record to 6-0 by down ing the San Francisco Forty Niners, 17-13. The Chicago Bears (5-1) remained a game behind Detroit in the Western race by outscoring the Los Angeles Rams, 35-24, as 178-pound Perry Jeter zipped for two second half touchdowns. Three Share Cellar But the Cardinals and Giants were more interested in the showing made by the Browns, who snapped a three-game los ing streak by whipping the Green Bay Packers, 24-7. The Browns (2-4) share the Eastern cellar with Pittsburgh and Philadelphia and need a super-miracle to battle back into contention. Hart's touchdowns, Bobby Layne's field goal, an alert de fense and a costly penalty against the Forty-Niners (1-5) en abled the Lions to win for the fourth time this season by four points or less. The Rams (1-5) held the Bears to a 21-21 halftime tie before 69.894 fans but the invaders stole four passes in the second half and turned two of them into touchdowns. Scoring Passes , . McHan threw twoa scoring passes to Gem Nagler -and one apiece to Don Sioriesifer and Dave Mann to lead the Cardinals' against the. Eagles at Chicago. The Giants scored on . Alex Webster's plunge and Chuck Conerly's pass to. Kyle Rote but Agajanian's field goal'made the difference at Pittsburgh as Sid Watson scored twice for the Steelers. Linebacker Chuck Noll raced 39 yards with Al Carmichacl fumble to put Cleveland in front in the opening mimites. Babe Parilli of the Browrfs threw only three passes but completed two. one a 26-yard scoring toss to Ray Renfro. Curly Morrison got the other Cleveland' touch down while the Jatkers (2-4) scored on Tobin Rote's 10-ard pass to Bill Howton in tTie final period. fj O 0 . o O OO GAME OF0 WEEK q Nqw YOk lU.Rj ieOation ab Broadcasting Company will televise arday's dilinnesota Iowa gme as the college foot bill "game of thajweek."
