Chicago Bears Show Snap In Gridiron (This is one of 12 dispatch es on the 1958 prospects of National Football League teams.) By ED SAINSBURY Chicago - (UPD - The 1958 Chicago Bears won't finish last in the National Football league's Western division, owner-coach George Halas says, but he won't predict that they'll finish first either. Halas, returning to active coaching' after a two-year lapse in which assistant Paddy Driscoll directed the club to the division title before a 1957 slump, claims he can't rates his team since he wasn't an active coach last year. "I just know that anybody that says we're going to win it is awfully premature," he said. "I won't say we won't, but I won't say we will." Actually the Bears could have a good chance. Last year during the- training season, and . the actual season, the Bears were lackadaisical. The year, they're not. There's a snap to their performance that was missing in 1957, and both the players and coaches re turning admit that "we're working all the time." Defense Looks Strong Defense should be the strong point of the club. And if the offense improves, the Bears might go all the way. A year ago in overall de fense, the club led the league, ranking second in defense against passing as well as the ground attack. This year the same horses are back plus some rookies and a returned service man, Charlie Sumner, in the secondary. "We're better now than we were last year," defensive coach Clark Shaughnessy said, ''and we'll get better all sea son. We've got one real find in rookie Bill Roehnelt, and Jesse Whittenten is working out fine in the backfield." The defensive setup should be expert with Bill George calling the signals from a line backing spot, and veterans Fred Williams, Bill Bishop, M. L. Brackett, Doug Atkins, and Jack Hoffman up front. Offense could improve. Ed Prep Scores: FRIDAY FOOTBALL United Press International Banks 20. Hood River 7. Klamath Falls 12, South Eu gene 7. Waldport 20. Powers 12.

CUBS SIGN COLLEGIAN Chicago -(DPB Victor Han sen, 21-year-old senior at Illi nois Wesleyan university, has been signed by the Chicago Cubs and assigned to their Ft. Worth affiliate in the Texas league. Preparations Brown and Zeke Bratokowski are battling for the quarter back spot and each will get starting assignments during the season "on how they per form the week before," Halas said. Rookie Start At fullback a rookie, Mer rill Douglas, a power runner from Utah, was expected to spell regular Rick Casares. A rookie also could help at the tail back spot He's Ralph An derson fr6m Compton Junior College, but he'll have to beat out veteran Bill McColl for the job. The single halfback spot might be improved. J. C. Car oline was switched from the defensive platoon to offense and has been impressive. Rookie Johnny Morris from Santa Barbara has looked good, and Willie Galimore has been a standout, scoring four touchdowns in a recent exhi bition game with Cleveland. But Halas figures on Gali more only as a "spot" per former and one of the other pair probably will get most of the work. "With Galimore's speed," Halas said, "he's going to look mighty good out there when the other teaem is a little tired." Several newcomers could break in on the line, ends Bob Jewett, Bob Carey and " Ed Cooke, and interior linemen Ted Karras, Dick Klein, Don Healy and Willie Lee. Veterans who will spark the offensive line include Abe Gibron, signed as a free agent for his first Bears season; Bob Kilcullen, Stan Jones, and Earl Leggett, in the interior and Harlon Hill and Jim Dool ey at the ends. "SLAMMER" SETS MARK Sea Island, Ga. -UPD- Sam my Snead set a record for the Sea Island golf course Fri day when he shot a nine-under-par 63 to beat Paul Harney of Worchester, Mass., in a match being filmed for television. The match prob ably will be seen on ABC TV's "All Star Golf" program sometime next February or March. MEDFORDftliiTroUXE SnPODIHiTS TOUCHDOWN CATCH - If these two players appear to be working together, it's the wrong impression. Loyal Higin botham (12), Crater halfback, is shown grabbing a pass for the Comets' second touchdown in 47 to 13 grid victory over Eagle Point high on Friday night. Tryingto prevent the catch is Bill Turner (45), Eagle halfback. The aerial was thrown by Crater quarterback Wayne Allen. Crater High Downs Eagle Point 47-13 Central Point-Crater high's Comets built up a four-touchdown margin over three quar ters and had the edge in a rash of fourth period scoring Friday night to overpower the plucky Eagle Point high football team, 47 to 13. The fracas was marked by long gains for touchdowns and fullback Kerman Bennett tab ulated four times for the Comets. Crater led 7 to 0 after one stanza, 19 to 0 at halftime and 26 to 0 after three panels., Eagle Point, its goalward aims hurt by penalties and muffs in the earlier going, roused back to make, a game of it in the final quarter. The two clubs twice traded touch down for touchdown in the closing session and Crater ad ded another marker in , the dying moments of the game. Comet defenders busted in to spill Eagle Pointers for a number of substantial losses but Eagle bucks, the three Bills, Skeeters, Turner and McClure, were a constant threat to break away and achieved several long romps. 29-Yard Pass Crater marched 63 yards in eight plays for a TD the first time it got the ball. Bennett went over the left side for the last three and took a pitch for the extra point. Big gain of the drive was a pass play, Wayne Allen to Loyal Hig inbotham, for 29 yards put ting the ball on the three. A fumble recovery in the second chucker gave Crater the ball on about the Eagle five. One play lost a yard and third down, after one pass was incomplete, Allen tossed to Higinbotham in the end zone. Near the close of the stanza with the ball on trie Crater 40, calm and poised quarter back Allen uncorked a pass to Bennett who eluded one tack ier arid outran others to go all the way to the end zone, a 60 yard play. Crater had obtained the ball on its own 34 but was set back to the 22 when a Wayne Allen to Allen Barnes throw was com plete for a 12-yard loss. This was overcome,' however, by an Allen to Higinbotham ear ial good for 16 yards. Allen then went seven for a first down on a fourth down fake punt gamble. Midway in the third canto Crater got the ball on its own 48. Barnes gained four yards and then 21 to the Eagle 27. From there Bennett took a hand off and went the dis tance to score. Barnes ran the conversion. Hooper Intercepts Roger Hooper intercepted a pass to EP the ball on the Comet 40 as the fourth quar ter began. The Eagles gained the goal in nine plays with Skeeters going the last two and adding the conversion. Crater then moved from its own 39 yard line, to the end zone. Passes Allen to Bennett for 35 yards "and Allen to Higinbotham for 15 ate up most of the ground and Barnes tallied for the two. Allen heaved to Higinbotham for the bonus. Eagle Point took the kick off and in three plays moved from its 33 to the Crater 48. There Skeeters boomed through middle and raced to the goal, veering to the left halfway to his destination to avoid tacklers. Allen gathered the Eagle kick-off on his 20, drifted to , the right pulling over the EP defenders, and handed to Ben net who swung wide to the left and down the sideline with some good blocking and scampered for an 80-yard TD run. Another Allen to Higin botham chuck converted for 40 to 13. Scoring closed out two plays later when the Comets Gary Johnson ran 36 yards on a pass intercepted and then passed to Harold Twedell for the extra point. Crater held the Eagles to a net of only around 10 yards from scrimmage in the first, half. STATISTICS: Net yards rushing Net yards passing Total net yards First downs rushing First downs passing ..

Nebraska, which won only one of 10 games last season, sprang the biggest upset of the day when it downed Penn State, 14-7. Pittsburgh scored an impressive '27-6 victory over UCLA, North Carolina State beat North Carolina, 21 14, and Wake Forest routed Maryland, 34-0, in the other major upsets. Coaches generally ap proached the new optional ex tra point play along similar lines. They elected to try the conventional kick on early touchdowns and then went for the two-point play later in the game. All told, coaches, used the two-point play about 60 per cent of the time. Sophomore halfback Pat Fisher went 92 yards on a kickoff return to give Nebras ka a fourth-period 7-7 tie and the Cornhuskers later staged a 46-yard drive for the win ning score. All three tries for the extra points were by con vertional kick - and all were successful. Outrush UCLA Quarterbacks Ivan Toncic and Bill Kaliden led a Pitts burgh offense that outrushed UCLA, 229-80, as the Panthers handed the Bruins their first opening game loss since 1950.
