SOC Hops Out of Fire To Post Win Over OCE Ashland Southern Oregon college's aroused Red Raiders of the Rogue chased the Wolves away from their door with one of the most stirring comebacks in Oregon Collegiate conference football history here yesterday afternoon and assured them selves of at least a share of the league diadem.

It was the fourth straight OCC win for the unblemished Raid ers. They handed the Wolves of Monmouth their first loss in four league frays.

The 20-year-old first cousin of Queen Elizabeth will work only three days a week at the hospit tal for sick children. There was no indication she intended to make a career of nursing. session of the crown. There were a lot of heros as the Raiders flared up after a cheerless first half but a big share of the glory fell on the shoulders of halfback Larry Maurer. He scored all three of the SOC touchdowns by a four yard poke, a 18-yard pass in terception runback and a sweep around end for 64 yards. Quar terback Lance Locke booted two conversions and halfback Lee McGill ran one off placekick for mation. Halfback Larry Buss hit pay soil on a one yard plunge for OCE in the first quarter. Quar terback Jim Bowlen passed to halfback Wayne Gernhart 33 yards and Don Lumgair pushed two yards for second period Wolf goals. Buss converted after the opening TD on a fake kick. Oregon college dominated the first half of the contest by a considerable margin but not nearly so decisively as the Raid ers had command over the clos ing two stanzas. SOC, gridders blocking and tackling fiercely, seemed an entirely different team. The vicious Raider offen sive ripped off an unofficial net of 203 yards in the final half. In the meantime, SOC defend ers, led by such stalwarts as Chuck Crandall and Modesto Jiminez, continually crashed through to smear Wolf backs, particularly Bowlen, for losses. OCE had a net two yards from scrimmage for . the last two periods. 51-Yard Drive The Raiders sailed to a TD the first time they got hold of the ball in the third quarter, going 51 yards and with Maur er's four yards the last play of nine. OCE took over the ball on its 29-yard line after Phil Sword's kick-off. Bowlen, spilled for 10 and 13-yard losses back to the six, tried to pass again. The ball fell into the arms of Maurer on the 18 and he bom barded his way to the goal. The Cave Junction player's third counter came on a fourth down gamble for one yard. It was a pitchout (from Locke) around right end and Maurer rambled down the right side line and cut nicely through the last congestion of rivals with some screening aid by end Crandall. From then on the homecom ing crowd hung on to its seats while the clock ran on and the Wolves made one more serious bid. They moved in two plays, one 25 yards on pass inter ference, from their own 33 to the SOC 28 for a first down. But Crandall dumped Gernhart back on the 42. After two passes and a lateral try, the Raiders took possession and ran out the time. , A pass interception by Barry Adams gave the ball to OCE cn the Raider 18 to set up the first touchdown of the after noon. The Wolves made it in five pokes at the line. A six play drive from its own 27 gained the Monmouth crew touchdown number two. A 27 yard aerial thrust, Bowlen to Lumgair was a big yardage eat er along with the scoring play. 33-Yard Pass Gain OCE had its last touchdown a moment later when Larry Gower's interception put the ball on the SOC 35. Another 33 yard air maneuver, Bowlen to Gernhart reached the two to set up Lumgair's scoring lunge. Southern Oregon out-netted OCE 275 to 172 in total scrim mage yards. The Wolves had 170 to 72 upper hand in the first half when the Raiders managed to net only nine yards on the ground. First down totals favor ed SOC 113 to 10. The Raiders came close to a TD in the second quarter. Quar terback George Stavros's toss for 37 yards was caught by end Norm OHva but theh recipient was over the sideline of the end zone when he caught the ball. Larry Maurer took the spot light away from his teammate and brother, fullback Ron Maur er, who as of the last official tabulations was the OCC rush ing leader.

Jones brought the 29,000 fans to their feet with a roar as he burst through the Oregon State line, shook off tacklers and rac ed down the sideline for the score. It was Washington's first vic tory of the season. And the Husky play today was in mark ed contrast to the sputtering of fense they had shown previous ly. The bruising game was accen tuated by high partisanship on both sides. Police had to lead two inebriates off the field in the second half and sporadic fist fights broke out after the game as the victorious Huskies carried Coach Jim Owens off the field on their shoulders. On Oregon State piccolo play er was knocked cold. And earl ier Buzz Randall, Oregon State's starting center, was expelled from the game for unsportsman like conduct. , Oregon State took a 6-0 lead on a 34-yard pass play from Lar ry Sanchez to Sterling Hammack just before the first period end ed.

The Beavers started out like they were going to take Wash ington apart. They marched from their own 32 to the Wash ington 3 in just seven plays.
