The Raider defense could not get set until near the end of the second quarter and in the second half it took them another quarter to get estab lished. By that time most of the damage had been done. Interceptions Damage From scrimmage the Raid ers ran only 25 plays on the ground while OCE ran over 50. Most of the hurt came in the six interceptions by the alert Wolves, particularly Stan' Kenyon who picked off three of the aerials. OCE took the opening kick off and drove for their first score on a two-yard plunge by Chuck Harris. The series of plays started on the OCE 25 yard line and the Wolves drove to the SOC 29 before they took to the air. Two " passes went incom plete but quarterback Jim Bowlen on a rollout picked up eight yards and on the next play Herb ves slipped his way along ft 19 yards to set up the TD. The second tally came in the second quarter on more or less of a fluke starting with an OCE punt. The ball bounced to the SOC 26 where one of the red shirted Raiders fumbled it and an alert Wolf pounced on it. Pass-and Penalty OCE on its first play lost five yards but a Bowlen to Jack Kapp pass netted 19 and on the play the Raiders were assessed 15 yards for a per sonal foul which put the ball on the one yard line. Kapp hit paydirt off tackle. George Ross converted for the second time in a row. Things were pretty quiet in the third quarter but in the fourth the Wolves broke loose again with Jerry Flug bang ing into the end zone from 12 yards out. An intercepted pass by Kenyon set the stage for the TD with only 1:35 re maining in the same. Kenyon had picked off one of Jack Brown's passes and raced back to the 12 before OCE scored on the first play Pass Comes Close Southern Oregon threaten ed but once or twice through the game. On the first play of the game quarterback Brown pitched out to halfback Eldon Francis who threw long to end Wayne Collum but the ball was just beyond Collum's finger tips. On another occasion Brown hit Larry Yarnell near the midf ield stripe but the last man brought down Yarnell after a pickup of 34 yards. On the ground the Raiders netted 48 yards rushing to OCE's 224 and in the air SOC got 77 yards to the Wolves' 39. First downs saw 18 for OCE and 7 for SOC while each team recovered one fum ble.

Smoke Signals To Announce Pope Cross Up World Vatican City (UPD - The tradition-honored system of using smoke signals to inform the world that a pope has been elected collapsed com pletely Sunday, creating un precedented confusion. Thousands of Roman Catho lic faithful were back in St. Peter's Square today watching the slender chimney pipe high above but without their pre vious conviction that white smoke would signal the elec tion of a new pontiff. Color Changes Sunday the color of the" smoke from burning ballots inside the Sistine Chapel changed from black to white and back again to the con fusion and frustration of the waiting millions around the world. White smoke from the sec ret conclave was to signal that a pope had been chosen. Black was to signify that that round of balloting had not been successful Twice Sunday the smoke puffs from the chimney changed color and tone a dozen times and left watchers in uncertainty for long, agonizing minutes. "We have a pope," Vatican Radio said in several langu ages around the world when its announcer spotted clouds of white smoke billowing from the little chimney. A crowd of 300,000 in St. Peter's Square shouted "Viva il papa" -long live the pope." Admits Judgment Wrong The smoke never got darker than a dirty grey before it ceased. And it was 30 minutes before the official Vatican Radio admitted flatly it had been wrong in its judgment and told the world a pope had not been elected. By that time the news had been sent around the world. The confusion happened both in the morning and again late in the evening when lights playing on the smoke gave it an erroneous white ap pearance.
