Miami Edges Oregon On Sun-F30Sed Orange (Freakish Bounce Aids 2-0. Bowl; Win Miami (CPU Fran Curci's only punt of the year took a freakish bounce at the Ore gon goal, died on the one-yard line, and set up the safety that gave Miami a sweet 2-0 victory Saturday at the end of a bitter season. Hurricane end Bill Poole helped tackle Oregon's Dave Grosz for the safety and also pounced on a fumble at the Miami seven, to stop an Ore gon threat. Oregon, whose home fans 3,500 miles away were watch ing on nationwide television, penetrated to the Miami seven twice and al30 had two plays that crossed the goal voided by penalties. There were 22,898 fans in the sun-filled Orange Bowl for a game that looked more like jacks than football as both teams picked up the oth er's frequent fumbles through the scoreless first half. But Curci. who hadn't made a single punt all season, found himself in a kicking situation in the third period without his punter. With the ball on the Ore gon 40, the tiny quarterback coolly booted it. The punt was a good one-so good it almost sailed over the goal. But the football", acting more like a billiard ball with backspin, hopped back and abruptly came to rest only one yard from the double stripe. Oregon's Dave Grayson car ried it out to the two on the next play. But Poole and Daniel Coughlin caught Grosz behind the goal on the next play and that gave Miami its only its second win in a 10 game season. Oregon immediately launch ed a drive that carried from its own 43 to the Miami 7. But there Len Read fumbled and Poole gobbled up the ball. Miami punted out only to have Oregon drive right back to the 12- From there, a field goal attempt by John Clarke was no good. Oregon tried one more desperation field goal in the last seconds. Miami, like Oregon, had a frustrating day at the goal line and was stopped on drives that carried to the eight and the 14. It was Oregon's sixth de feat against four wins. But Miami's failure to move the ball across the goal gave the Webfoots the national title in defense against touchdowns.

Division Title United Press International The Cleveland Browns can clinch their eighth National football league division title in nine years by defeating the Philadelphia Eagles Sunday if the crippled Detroit Lions down the New York Giants. Cleveland, most consistent winner in modern professional football history, lead- New York by one game in the East ern division race. Each N.F.L. team started the weekend with two more games. The combination of a Cleveland triumph and a New York defeat would put the Browns into the Dec. 28 championship game with the Baltimore Colts. The Colts, who clinched the western crown last Sunday, lost to the Rams, 30-28, in a Saturday afternoon game at Los An geles. Cleveland Favorite Cleveland (8-2) is a seven point favorite for its game with the Eagles (2-7-1) at Phil adelphia. New York (7-3) is favored over the Lions (4-5-1) by three at Detroit. The Pittsburgh Steelers (6- 4) are 2Vz point favorites for their game with the Dedskins (3-7) at Washington. Pitts burgh: trails Cleveland bv two games and still has a mathe matical chance to tie for the division title. In Sunday's other games, the Bears (6-4) are IVi point favorites for their annual clash with the Cardinals (2-7-1) at Chicago and the Forty Niners (4-6) are 10V4 point choices to defeat the Green Bay Packers (1-8-1) at San Francisco. The Browns and Eagles have been embroiled in a bit ter but largely unpublicized feud for years. It flared again two weeks ago at Cleveland when the Browns won, 28-14, and Coach Paul Brown failed to go to the center of the field after the game to shake hands with Coach Buck Shaw of the Eagles. Feud Explained The Eagles charged Brown had insulted Shaw and their fiery quarterback, Norm Van Brocklin, promised "we'll wallop the Browns next time." Brown said he didn't go on the field because an Eagle had belted one of his players on the noggin during post-game maneuvers last year. The Browns, one of the game's great road clubs, have lost, five of their last six games at Philadelphia. And the Eagles will be fired up to tame the Brownies again.

Regulation play ended at 69-69 with the Ducks tieing the score with 1:24 left to play. Each team missed last ditch field goal attempts to send it into overtime. Brigham Young's Bob Skou sen popped in 18 first half points to pace his team to a 31-30 halftime edge. But he was called for his fourth foul with more than eight minutes to play in the second half and sat out most of that period. John Nicholl took up the slack in the second half as he hit for 17 points. Knotted Often The game was tied 21 dif ferent times and . the lead changed hands 17 times in the fast paced contest Oregon took the lead in the overtime with 1:45 left as Stu Robertson hit a long-push shot from the corner. The Ducks built it to 79-73 on two free throws each by Herron and Chuck Rask. Herron took high point hon ors for the game with 28 til lies.

NEW RING CHAMP TO BUY 'DREAM HOUSE' Los Angeles -(UPD-Don Jor dan, the brand new welter weight champion, said Satur day he would buy a "dream ranch" before defending his title in a return bout with Virgil Akins at St. Louis on Feb. 11 or 13. The first Los Angeles-born welterweight ruler received a purse of $13,447 for Friday night's 15-round fight at the Olympic auditorium where he wrested the 147-pound cham pionship from Akins, of St. Louis, on an upset unanimous decision. When Jordan appeared to day at headquarters of the Cal ifornia state athletic commis sion to pick up his check, he was wearing two large pieces of white tape over a cut on his left brow. He said the cut, which did not require any stitches, would be healed in plenty of time for him to start training in January before the return bout. He will do most of his training in the Los An geles area and go to the Mis souri metropolis only a few days before the fight, he said. There was a rematch pro vision in the contract for the fight and Jordan said, "I'll beat him worse next time be cause I'll weigh lighter." Ex-champion Akins had his right eye completely closed when he appeared at the com mission to pick up his check for $26,895 the champion's 40 per cent of all net receipts. RBM$M Bros.
