Poland, Russia Meet in Battle; Title at Stake Leipzig, Germany (IP) Russia and Poland clash today in the soccer "game of the year," and it might produce another clash of David felling Goliath. Nominally, the game is one of about 80 preliminaries for the 1958 World Cup competition. But political overtones are pre vailing. Millions throughout Eur ope will be watching or listening as little Poland challenges Rus sia. The Poles, never much of a soccer power, looked like goners in the World Cup when the Rus sians beat them, 3-0, in the first game of their home-and-and away series. But before a crowd of more than 100,000 at Chorzow, Poland, last month, they provid ed one of the biggest upsets in soccer history by beating the Russians, 2-1. That victory forced Sunday's rubber game on neutral grounds. If Poland wins the playoff, it will boot the Russians out of the 16-nation World Cup finals in Sweden next summer. This would be one of the biggest blows Russian sports prestige has suffered in recent years. Prices Take Drop, Portland Reports Portland (IP) Prices of goods and services in Portland cost 0.2 less in the July-October quarter of 1957, according to the department of labor bureau of statistics, and was the first down ward trend in the cost of living in Portland in IVz years. Cheaper meats, less expensive gasoline, and lower prices for 1957 model cars during the an nual fall cleanup were the chief factors in the decline. Even so, the Portland index of 121.9 (1947-1949 average at 100) was 2 per cent higher than at the same time last year and nearly ,7 per cent above April, 1955, when prices first started up. The bureau said food prices were almost 1V4 per cent cheap er in October than in July. Meat prices were down more than 3 per cent. Price increases were reflected in housing, apparel, reading and recreation, but cuts in food and transportation were more than enough to offset those increases. 4-K Club News Central Poinl 4-H Clubs The Central Point 4-H clubs held their annual achievement night Tuesday evening in the Central Point Grange hall.
