Eagle Pointers Defeat Pleasant Hill
To Reach State A-2 Grid Semi-Finals
l it le Point Thre big breaks
on pass interceptions, with the
help of a penalty on one of them, I
provided th only toucndowns
here Saturday nght as the Eagle
Point high team fought into the
semi-finals of the Oregon Class
A-2 prep football championship
eliminations.
The Eagles, unable to mobilize
a concerted offensive scoring
' drive, used the breaks for two
TDs in the second quarter and
one in the final period and. were
tough in the clutch on defense
in their 21 to 0 verdict over
Pleasant Hill. Quarter-final tri
umph elevated the District 6
: champions into the round-of-four
against Silverton next waok end.
Site of the game was being
determined today by the Oregon
School Activities association.
Silverton spilled Val in the
mud 8 to 0 en Friday night.

Eagle Point Joined Medford,

day, to place two Jackson county
teams In state semi-final con
tests. Pleasant Hill's Billies were
strongest offensively during the
first half but stout Eagle defense,
. the Eagle interceptions and a
penalty ruined scoting chances.
The interceptions by Jack Greb
and Norm Hooper reversed the
EP backs to the wall battle in
tha first half and in the second
half tha horn club stopped al
most eery Billte effort with tha
aUt of pass Interceptions, pen
alties and a fumble. Pleasant Hill
was going goalwaid in the final
momenta but time ran out with
the ball on the EP six yard line.
Misfired passes and the infrac
tions Were the undoing of the
Billies. '
The TD romp by Greb and
Hoaper In the second stanza and
Hooper in the second stanza
came only three scrimmage
plays apart. Pleasant Hill after
recovery of an Eagle fumble .on
the PH had poked to the EP 11
yard line. There an illegal use
sti hands penalty put the Billies
back to the 26. One play carried
back to tha 17. - -Greb

Then the Billies Ken Lock
man passed wide into the flat.
Greb, handicapped much by the
' 1iek field during the evening,
however, ran powerfully on this
straight ahead chance. He
swiped the ball on the 12-yard
line and blazed 88-yards down
trio sideline, with some fine
blocking, to score.
The Eagles kicked off and in
two plays moved Pleasant Hill
only five yard. Lockman tossed
a short flat pass. The Eagics'
Hooper snagged on the EP 33
and rambled to the goal line.
Jim Duncan swept end after both
tie touchdowns for extra points.
Holding the Billies to a net
of only 41 yards from scrim--tnaga
during the second half,
taale Point mounted an offense
of ita own in the fourth quarter
which carried from its 33 to the
47, Monte Axtel! was called to
punt on fourth down but a rough
ing the kicker infraction was
called and the Eagles got the
ball on Billy 38. They moved to
the 27 for a first down but put
- back to the 32 on offside and
" loat the ball on the 33. - '
On the following .PH play.
Hooper Intercepted a pass by
Ken Ward. That gave the Eagles
the ball on the Billy 33 again.
Eagle Point bogged down on the
26 and lost the pigskin but re
gained it at the spot on a Jim
Bunker recovery of a Billy
; fumble. However the Eagles
5 were act back to the 49 on pen
alties. They got back to the 45 and
Axtell punted and Pleasant Hill

penalty and a short punt for two
touchdowns in the fourth quar
ter to down a stubborn under
manned Southern Oregon college
football team 27 to 13 here Sat
urday night.
Dick Spray scored one fourth
quarter Wildcat TD on a two
yard plunge after a personal
foul penalty had put the ball on
the one and the Raiders had
thrdwn Linfield back a yard.
Bob Flood got the other on a
30-yard end run after Larry
Schweinfurt's punt for SOC had
gone only four years to the 30.
Gary Wells added the two
placements.
Linfield drew first blood in
the tussle when Ron Parrish
ran back a short punt by
Schweinfurt 36 yards to the goal
for 6 to 0. Southern Oregon
fought back with a 62-yard
touchdown drive. It took seven
plays with the big gainer a 36
yard Lance Locke to Norm
Oliva pass. Larry Maurer went
the last six yards to the end zone
and John . Garrett booted the
bonus.
Raiders Tie Gams
The 'Cats went on top again

15-yard personal foul penalty
hurt the Red Raiders in this
case, too. Wells kicked the
extra.
The Raiders tied up the game
in the third after Garrett re

By UNITED PRESS
The Washington Redskins a
team with no stars, few touch
downs and less press notices
are running amok in the Nation
al Football league and could win
or tie for the Eastern division
title if they keep up their cur
rent pace.
While the Chicago Bears and
Detroit Lions scored relatively
easy victories Sunday to remain
tied for the Western division
lead, the Redskins entertained
the New York Giants and am
bushed .the Eastern pacesetters,
33-7. In their last four starts, the
Redskins (4-3) have upset the
Cleveland Browns and three
first - place teams the Lions,
Chicago Cardinals and Giants.
New York kept its one-game
lead because the crippled Pitts
burg Steelers defeated the second-place
Cardinals, 14-7. But
the Redskins, now only 1V4
games behind the Giants, have
another game with New York
(6-2) and have five more games
in all while the division leaders
have only four. The Cardinals
have a 5-3 mark.
Bears Cop Seventh
The Bears, who visit the
Giants next Sunday, made it
seven in a row by defeating the
Los Angeles Rams, 30-21. De
troit, Washington's victim last
week bounced back to crush the
Baltimore Colts, 27-3. The Bears
and Lions (both 7-1) lead the
runnerup Colts (3-4) by 32
games.
Defense Helps
Tommy O'Connell, the third
quarterback to handle Cleveland
this season, teamed with rookie
halfback Preston Carpenter and
a good defense to lead the
Browns to a 16-0 victory over
the Philadelphia Eagles. Gordie

EP marched from there to the
Billy 36 in its best push of the
night but lost the ball on a
fumble.
Billies Lead in Scrimmage
On the basis of first half play
Pleasant Hill, had the edge in
overall net scrimmage yardage
but in total net yardage which
included pass interception runs,
punt returns and kick-off run
backs Eagle Point had a bulging
margin 285 to 163. Eagle Point
got eight first downs and Pleas
ant Hill eight.
Quarterback Ken Ward, publi
cized as the big gun of the Billy
offense, was handicapped by a
shoulder separation injury but
played even more than Billy
fans thought he should. His hard
running in spot action showed
his value to the club and he al
most broke away for a score in
the dying moments, traveling 22
yards to the EP six before being
halted. He shook free on one
33-yard first half run which was
nullified by a penalty. However,
Jack Deveraux and Charles
Brummel were the main cogs
Saturday of the Billy offensive.
Despite the wet field both
clubs made much use of passes
in the second half.
Cisco Forty-Niners a 17-6 tri
umph over the Green Bay Pack
ers in the other game.
Cleveland, Pittsburgh and
Philadelphia (all 3-5) share the
Eastern cellar while Los Ange
les, San Francisco and Green
Bay (all 2-6) are last in the West.
Halfback Billy Wells and
quarterback Al Dorow, two for
mer Michigan State stars, plus a
stout defense played leading
roles in New York's worst de
feat since it took a 62-14 wal
loping from Cleveland in 1953.
Wells scored twice and Dorow
threw touchdown passes to John
Carson and Steve Meilinger.
The Redskins scored only five
touchdowns in their previous
three triumphs but uncorked
their best scoring spree of the
season against a New York team
that had allowed its last five op
ponents to average only nine
points.

Bowls Move Fast Toward
Selection of Opponents
By JOHN GRIFFIN
United Press Sports Writer
The Rose Bowl, grand-daddy
of the New Year's Day football
carnivals, was the first to pre
sent a completed line-up today
with Iowa vs. Oregon State in
a history-making rematch, but
the other major bowls were mov
ing fast toward the same goal.
The official conference votes
to name the Rose teams were
reduced to mere formalities on
Saturday when Iowa upset Ohio
State, 6-0, to put a lock on the
Big Ten berth and Oregon State
wrapped up the Pacific Coast
berth by squeaking to a 14-10
triumph over Idaho.
This will mark the first time
in the 43-year history of the
Rose extravaganza at Pasadena,
Calif., that two teams meet in
the classic who also clashed dur
ing the regular season. Iowa
won that one, 14-13, at Iowa City
but Oregon State star back Joe
Francis insisted today, "we had
'em but let 'em get away."
Here's how the lineup on the
other major bowls now appears:
Sugar Bowl Tennessee cer
tain of a berth after crushing
Mississippi, 27-7, but bowl com
mittee must wait until confer
ence season ends before issuing
formal bid. In line for the other:
Georgia Tech, SMU, or Baylor.
Orange Bowl Colorado now
certain to represent Big Seven
since Missouri was drubbed by
Oklahoma, 67-14. Clemson still
likely for other berth but pres
tige was weakened by 21-0 loss
to Miami Friday and Duke could
be voted the Atlantic Coast
loop's "most representative"
team.

Only two league games were
on the weekend schedule in the
Northwest conference but the re

havoc with the final standings in
the loop.
Linfield stepped outside the
league in the third small college
game scheduled and found while
it marked time in the no-counter,
it had backed right into the title
thanks to a couple of under
dogs. Highlight of the weekend's ac

of Lewis and Clark. The Pio

the title, were the victims of Dr.
