By EARL WRIGHT United Press International ; Jim Brown, the 230-pound lad Coach Paul Brown select ed when he "lost" a coin toss in 1956, may start a new Cleveland Browns dynasty with the biggest season rush ing and scoring spree in Na tional "Football league history White the Baltimore Colts (5-0) retained their one-game Western- division lead Sunday with a 35-10 victory over the Washington Redskins, Brown ran amok for the fifth straight week to spark the Browns (5 0) to a 38-24 victory over the Chicago Cardinals. Brown helped Cleveland retain its two-game . Eastern lead by scoring; four touchdowns on runs of 62,-41, 7 and 2 yards The Chicago Bears (4-1) re mained close behind the Colts by defeating the San Fran cisco Forty-Niners, 27-14, dur ing a game in which one of the 60,000 Kezar stadium fans provided part of the halftime entertainment by socking Coach t.George Halas of the winners." The New York Giants ir(3-2) regained undis puted second - place behind Cleveland by defeating the Pittsburgh Steelers, 17-6. Tobin-Rote sparked the De troit Ljons to their first 1958 victory, a 41-24 triumph over the Lolj Angeles Rams before Ol.uo in me Luuatruin, t n u the Green Bay Packers edged the Philadelphia Eagles, 38 35 in the other games. Will Shatter Records But Brown, a 22-year-old fullback from Hempstead, N Y., and Syracuse university- is the big story of the first part of the 39th NFL cam paign. Barring injury, he al most certainly will shatter the all-time rusnmg record oi i,- 146 yards set by Steve Van Buren of Philadelphia in 1949 and Van Buren's record for touchdowns (18) made in 1945. At his present pace, Jim also will break the season scoring mark (138 points) set by Don Hutson of Green Bay in 1942. Cleveland planned to pick Len Dawson of. Purdue first in the 1956 NFL draft, but selected Brown when it lost a coin toss for the first choice. Brown gained 180 yards on 24 tries Sunday to boost his five-game rushing total to 815. He only needs about 50 yards in each of Jiis next sev en games to erase Van Bur- en's record, needing just 332 more to do the trick. Jim has 14 touchdowns and needs five more for a new record. He leads the current scoring race with 85 points and needs 55 more or nine touchdowns and an extra point, to top Hutson's mark. Leads Rushing Champions, Brown already has gained more yards in five games than 12 of the league's 26 rushing champions were able to col lect in complete campaigns since 1932. "The way to stop Brown is to have your line outplay theirs," said Coach Frank Ivy of the Cardinals, indicat- ML,, m wx WHAT PRP FOOTBALL COACH STARTED IN BASEBALL? George Hale, owner and coach of the Chicago Bears, started his professional athiet'c co reer as a member of the A'etv York Yankees. He made thfi starting line-up his first by an injury and turned to pro football- Halas was a star football, baseball and basket ball player at the U. of Illinois. " TOP THIS!

Enclose self-addressed, stamped envelope. . A mClmn Kwirap Jy fHim ing Brown is operating be hind a typical Cleveland line. "The difference in Sunday's game came when Brown got away on that play we had stopped." On the play, the Cardinals appeared to have Bobby Mitchell pinned against the sideline for a loss in the third period while leading, 24-17. Mitchell made up a play and flipped the ball to Brown. Jim ran 41 yards to tie score and went on to clinch the vic tory with two more touch downs. Leroy Bolden ran 102 yards with a kickoff for the other Cleveland touchdown. Leonard Lyles, fleet Balti more rookies who raced 103 yards against the Bears with a kickoff in the team's 1953 opener, broke Washington's back by carrying one 101 yards in the third period. John Unitas threw two touch down passes to Ray Berry while Lenny Moore and Alan Ameche scored on runs to de light 54,403 fans after Bert Zagers gave the Redskins a brief lead. Bears Carry Halas Willie Galimore of the Bears ran 20 yards to score the first time he handled the ball against the Forty-Niners.

California displayed prob ably the most impressive form shown by a West Coast team Backfiring Of Aerials Hurts Rams With BROWN-3 Col Hed .... Los Angeles -(UPD-The Los Angeles Rams today sadly pointed out that the Detroit Lions still were the world's champions of pro football as the Rams licked their wounas after taking a 41-24 beating Sunday. "We were burned by inter ceptions, commented Kams Coach Sid Gillman. uoing into the second half when we drew up to within four points of the Lions we thought we had a chance, but then three passes bounced out of the hands of our receivers ana into the arms of Detroit play- , ers. Detroit's veteran quarter back, Tobin Rote, had one of his best days as he threw three touchdown passes, and played with all the fire of a rookie and the skill of a nine- vear veteran in the pro game. The win was the first for the Lions in league play after three losses and a tie. Seven Intercepted At the same time, Bill Wade for the Rams had one of his poorest days, throwing six in terceptions on which the Lions capitalized for either touchdowns or field goals. An other interception was thrown by Wade's understudy, Frank Ryan, allowing the Lions to equal their team record for interceptions in a. single game. The Lions came up with tne play of the day in the first quarter with a 104-yard kick off return to set another rec ord. Gene Godman received the boot four yards inside the end zone, ran it out to the 14 and reversed to Terry Barr who ran the remaining 86 yards for the score. Tanforan Opens Fall Race Slate San Bruno - (UPD - Tanforan opened its 48-day fall racing season today as 16 top 3-year-olds met in two divisions of the Bay District handicap. The event was originally scheduled to have a purse of $10,000, but each division of the six - furlong inaugural headliner was endowed with purse of $7,500 as the result of an overloaded entry box.

The Giants turned two fumbles by Tom Tracy of the Steelers into 10 points during a steady rain at Yankee star! ium. Halfback Carl Karili vacz raced 23 yards to score with Tracy's first bobble and Pat Summerall kicked a 34- yard field goal after halfback Jim Patton recovered the sec ond. Rote, hero of Detroit's 59-14 triumph over Cleveland in the 1957 title game, threw touch down passes to Dave Middle- ton. Howard Cassady and Jim Dorari to lead the Lions to their first 1958 victory. Gene Gedman and Terry Barr of the Lions teamed on a 104- yard kickoff return. Gedman caught the ball four yards in side the end zone, ran to the 14 and handed off to Barr, who ran 86 more to score. Babe Parilli of Green Bay threw two scoring passes to Max Magee and one each to Gary Knafelc and Al Carmi chael. But Paul Hornung's 30 yard first period field goal provided the margin of vic tory over Philadelphia. Norm Van Brocklin threw two touchdown passes to Tommy McDonald and one to Gene Mitcham to lead a futile rally bjr the visitors. to date in downing Oregon 23-6 Saturday with one-man-gang Joe Kapp leading the way. But the Beavers will be no pushover when the two teams clash next Saturday. The men of Tommy Proth ro have won three and dropped one in conference play, second only to Cal's three wins in a row. Moreover, the Beavers' 14 12 squeaker over Washington last week was the fifteenth consecutive home victory for the Oregonians whose lopsid ed losses to USC and Wyom ing were both on the road.

MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE Fan Pokes Bear Tutor At Pro Tilt San Francisco-(UPD-The title hopes of the San Francisco Forty-Niners appeared dim at best today after the Chicago Bears handed the Califor nians a 27-14 thumping ki one of the most hectic contests ever seen in Kezar stadium. Play was halted, for five minutes in the second quarter of Sunday's contest while the 59,441 fans disputed a refe ree's decision. A few minutes later, Chicago coach ' George Halas was socked by an irate fan as Halas headed toward the dressing room at halftime. The booing was precipiated when the officials apparently ruled that Forty Niner Leo Nomellini had recovered a Willie Galimore fumble, only to reverse their decision and give the ball back to the Bears. Ball Was Dead After the game, it was ex plained that Referee Ronald Gibbs had not heard back judge George Smith blow the whistle after Galimore had been tackled, and Gibbs ruled the ball in play when actually it had been blown dead. The irate fan, William G Dunn, 34, of Palo Alto was quickly hauled away by the local gendarmes after taking a half-punch, half-push at the 62-year-old Halas. He later apologized to all, explained that he was "an avid fan,': and that he thought it was Halas who had persuaded the ref to change his decision on Galimore's fumble by means of some extra-curricular side line kibitzing. Once again it was the phan tom-like Willie Galimore who spelled the difference. Two Touchdowns Halas spot-played him in telligently throughout the contest and the willowy speedster picked up 56 yards on six carries and tallied twice. He scored from 20 yards out the first time he got the ball and he took a 47-yard scoring pass from Ed Brown to score the Bears' final and clinching touchdown. Galimore s alternate, J. C Caroline, gave the Bears their other touchdown .when he hooked up with Brown on a 59-yard pass play. The Forty Niners scored in the first and final quarters as John Brodie guided the team all day. He passed 25 yards for a score to Billy Wilson, who had another great day for San Francisco. HOCKEY United Press International The New York Rangers started the week end looking for their first victory and fin ished it with designs on first place in the National Hockey league. Two wins in 36 hours -6-2 over the Chicago Black Hawks Saturday afternoon and 3-2 over the Toronto Maple Leafs Sunday night - lifted the Rangers into, a three way tie for second place and put them five points behind the first-place Montreal Cana diens.
