Portland State turned a fumble into a TD in the closing portion of the second quarter and scored off an 88-yard ramble in the dying moments of the game Larry Maurer slanted over the left side of the line, for eight yards and the opening touchdown. A fourth-down swing pass for two yards, Locke to Biddington, gained the second marker. Brood took a pitch and romped the last five yards for the third Locke booted all three extra points. A sharp passing combina tied for first at the end of the regulation 72 holes Saturday with 918s. The Aussies held a two- stroke margin after the first nine as they battled the Yanks in brilliant sunshine on the famed St. Andrews Old Course. Then the Americans, led by Charley Coe, Okla homa City, rallied to tie the match after 12 holes. It was alll-square until the common wealth team took charge in the last three holes. Aussies Predicted The cocky Aussies predicted they would win and did it by taming the back .nine on this rugged course. Bruce Devlin and Bob Stevens fired a one-under-par 35 coming in. Peter Toogood, the other member of the four-man Australian team whose score counted, fired a par 36 coming in. Among the losers, only Coe, who came back in 35, could match the pressure shooting of the Australians on the back nine. Coe, the U.S. amateur champion, wound up with a 73. Dr. Frank Taylor, Pomo na, Calif., had a 76, and Billy Joe Patton, Morgantown, N. C, a 75. Bill Hyndman, Phila delphia, whose sparkling round Saturday enabled' the U.S. to force the playoff, shot a 78 today. ' In the competition, each country tounts the best three scores produced by its four players. Devlin had a 72 and Toogood and Stevens 75s to make the winners' total. Doug Bachli, the fourth Aussie, fired a 78 against Coe. Prothro Has No Excuse Corvallis -(UPD - Oregon State Coach Tommy Prothro came home without an alibi Sunday. Instead, he heaped praise on the Wyoming Cow boys for playing "awfully good ball" when they humil iated the Beavers 28-0 Satur day at Laramie. . Oregon State had to leave two of 4ts best backs, tail back Grimm Mason and full back Nub Beamer, in Corval lis with injuries. Also, tackle Ted Bates could not play be cause of a shoulder injury suffered last' week. He watched the game from the bench. "The injuries to these boys hurt us some," Prothro said, "but every team has injuries and that's no excuse for our losing like we did . . ." Outweighed Line Good The Cowboys, playing al most flawless ball and taking advantage of Oregon State mistakes, punched over two touchdowns in the second period and one each in the third and fourth. Mai in Raps Talent 20-0 Malin pulled into a three- way tie for second place with Jacksonville and Bonanza in District 5B football Saturday by trimming Talent 20 to 0 Talent made a game of it for the first half, holding the Mustangs scoreless. The Bull dogs from Jackson county got inside the Malin -five yard line five times in the first two quarters but could not mus ter a scoring punch. Malin tallied twice in the third quarter and once in the third. A swing pass got one TD, a pass set up another and a drive produced the third. The Mustangs gained con sistently through the line in the second half. Merrill remains the only unbeaten crew in the circuit. tion, Harvey Neffendorf to Sam Roberts, clicked for 17 and one Viking score. Gary Behncke chucked to Roberts for 10 yards and the other. Mac Wiebe toed the bonus counters. Danger Oyer Route The Viks, with the lugging of George Kane, Bill Turner, Henry Matias and Ward Sayles, with the passing of Neffendorf and Sayles and with the receiving potential of ends Roberts and Willie Brown and the backs were a danger all the way to the Raider defense. Portland State reached the SOC 12-yard line in the first quarter and the 15 at the end of the third stanza. Raider Phil Sword's interception stopped the early bid and the Viks lost out on downs on the other. A Southern Oregon non-scoring drive fizzled on the PSC 12 in the wrap up chucker. Southern Oregon began right from the opening kick- off the business of vindicating itself for the 60 to 13 thrash ing at the hands of Lewis and Clark the Saturday previous. The Raiders, set back to the 13 yard line for clipping on the kick, consumed much of the first quarter by holding on to the ball until they had their first TD against PSC, an eleven which bowed only 12 to 7 to Lewis and Clark's Pioneers. Penalty Helps SOC used 17 scrimmage plays to get to the goal with seven first downs along the way. The march was hamper ed by one offside penalty but a pass interference ruling against the Vikings more than made up for it. To set up the second mark er, Jim McAbee recovered a fumble by PSC's John Eich jorn. The Vikings lost the ball when tackled as he received a Tony Brauner punt. SOC got the ball on the Viking 36-yard line and had a touchdown in nine plays. Maurer ripped off a 17-yard romp but the rest of the way it was short gains. A bad pass from center which Vik punter Al Parent couldn't handle next gave the Raiders the ball on the Port land 16. Herman got two yards and Collum five on a pass from Locke. Herman gained another four and Brood took a flip and crossed for the final five. As the second quarter neared its end Brood took a PSC punt for SOC. Hemmed in, he tossed a. lateral which went awry and Mickey Gray fell on the ball for the Port- landers. With the ball on the 34-yard line Neffendorf passed to Brown to the 17 and then chucked to Roberts for the touchdown. Pass Not Held Portland took over on its 12 for the last touchdown drive. It took 15 plays to get to the end zone. The Viks were penalized twice for off side but had the advantage of a pass interference penalty against Southern Oregon. The Raiders' Herman nabbed Neff endorf pass along the way but fumbled and Roberts recov ered for a nine-yard advance for the visitors. PSC had six first down in the push. Pat Curtis provided the spectators with some amuse ment when he missed the ball trying for an onsided kick after the TD. The Vicks were penalized for offside on the play and Curtis' next try went to the PSC 42 where SOC took over with 1:46 left on the clock. Southern Oregon trying- to run out the clock was short of first down on its fourth schrimmage run and Portland got the ball with 10 seconds left. The game ended as a Behncke pass dropped incomplete. The Raiders dominated first half scrimmage by wide yard age margin and PSC had the edge by a considerable spread in the" second half. STATISTIC: SOC PSC - 10 10 5 1 1 First downs rushing A.

The Badgers upped. their intra-conference prestige and probably their No. 6 national ranking by bouncing Purdue, 31-6, Saturday. It was the third straight success of the season for the Bruhn squad and the first .setback for the Boilermakers, who had blanked their first two foes. Buckeyes Scared As the conference went in to full steam, Ohio State had a last-minute scare, but beat Illinois, 19-13; Iowa bounced back from a humiliating tie by the Air Force to wallop Indiana, 34-13, and North western made it three in a row with' a thrilling 7-3 tri umph over Minnesota. The Navy tagged Michigan with a 20-14 upset, and Michi gan State scored a 22-6 romp over Pittsburgh to complete the weekend action. Bruhn's rampaging Bad gers have a tough road ahead. Beginning with Iowa next week, they must face six con ference foes on the next six Saturday's In order they are Ohio State, Michigan State, Northwestern, Illinois and Minnesota.

But lowly California rated second place today in the standings. ' The Ducks take on third place Washington State Satur day with every intention of winning. If last Saturday's scores were any indication they will, since the Cougars barely eked out an 8-0 win over last place Idaho while Oregon clobbered Southern California, 25-0.

Clarke, from Independence, Ore., transferred to Oregon last year. He is an art student. West Gallops . The Ducks broke halfback Willie West loose on a 66 yard touchdown romp on the third play of the game to de light a crowd of 32,734 in Portland. It was Oregon's biggest margin over the Trojans since 1915.when the Webfoots won 34-0 in the first game of a ri valry which has ended at least for now because of the im pending breakup of the PCC. Southern California, which lost its last two games by only one point, fumbled away every chance it had to score. The deepest Trojan penetra tion was to the Oregon 24 in the third period when work horse halfback Rex Johnston fumbled. That was only one of .four Southern California fumbles the alert Webfoots recovered.
