Bransom grabbed the open- . ing kickoff and sped down the sidelines 90 yards for the game's only touchdown. The . contest was only 16 seconds old when the 170-pound right halfback dashed into paydirt. : - The first six points were enough as a rugged and deter- mined West " line stopped a stableful of speedy East backs time and again. Early in the forxth period Mapleton's Bob Peinel racked up the final two West count ers as he nailed Dick Ruhl of Heppner in the East end zone for a safety.

Bolin, Hurls 7-lnning No-Hitter United Press International Eugene's Bobby Bolin, a craftsman on the mound all season, fashioned a master piece Sunday night. Bolin pitched a no-hit, no- run game to lead the Emeralds to a 13-0, seven inning vic tory over Lewistown in the second game of a Northwest league doubleheader. Bolin's effort followed Eugene's 5-2, first game victory in which Ron Herbel fired a three-hitter. Blazing Bob, a 20-year-old righthander, struck out nine and walked only four as he notched his 17th victory against seven losses. Only one Bronco reached second base, that coming in the seventh inning when Bolin gave up two of his four walks. Maddox Shines Bolin, the league's strike out leader, now has fanned 223 batsmen this season. . Eugene won it in the first inning when it broke loose for five runs on four hits, in cluding a two-run double by Joe Sparks. Terry Maddox hit a three run double in the third inning of the first game to set up that victory Maddox also contributed a solo homer in the fifth inning. squad, did double duty. He provided a powerful offensive thrust at fullback for Coach Ran Anedrson of Yoncalla, and filled a tackle position on defense. Some 8,000 persons watch ed the West score its fifth win of the series. The East has won twice and there has been one tie. Bud Maupin, a speedster from Merrill,-was named top back on the East squad. , In pre-game ceremonies, 7-year-old Kristine Kenney of Pendleton was crowned queen of Shrine, football. She had been a patient in the Shrine's children's hospital in Port land. Officials said more than $10,000 from the proceeds of the game would be turned over to the hospital.

BARKER'S xWILL BE CLOSED TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY Green Bay Triumphs n Thriller By DON BECKER San Francisco (DPD It's about time they re-named Ke zar stadium "Cardiac Can yon." The San Francisco Forty- Niners have played enough heart-stoppers there to war rant the change. . Sunday in an exhibition game that didn't really mean beans to either club, the For- ty-Niners had the whole house standing and screaming at the gun in what has become cus tomary fashion. The Forty-Niners got taken in this one, 24-17, by the Green Bay Packers, but on the basis of cliff - hanging thrills, the contest measured up with some of the best of the past. On the last play of the game, Y. A. Tittle, who had just missed two alley-oop passes, lofted a third mile high heave that covered 50 yards in the air. R. C. Owens rutreached a cluster of de fenders to grab the ball on the one-foot line. Then the gun sounded. Though the game was not as satisfying for Forty-Niner fans as last week's last min ute 27-24 win over the Wash ington Redskins, it certainly aided new Forty-Niner coach Red Hickey in readying his forces for the NFL opener. Tittle played only the fourth quarter and led the Forty-Niners to their two touchdowns on some brilliant passing, 8-12, 153 yards and with the aid of fine snagging by Billy Wilson 5-95 yards With John Brodie at the quarterback helm, the-Forty- Niners were almost complete ly shackled by the Packers, The Green Bay line bottled up the San Francisco offen sive forward wall and put the rush on ' Brodie, who still managed to complete 11 of 18 tosses. But on the ground, the Forty-Niners could not generate sufficient yardage to sustain a drive. Packers Lead Early Green Bay grabbed a 10-3 half-time advantage with a fumble by rookie Paul Lowe on the Forty-Niner 34, paving the way for the Packer touch down. Forty-NinerJiobby Lu na opened the scoring in the second quarter when he kick ed a 20 yard field goal, and Paul Horning tied it for Green Bay with a similar boot. A 97-yard kick-off return by rookie George Dixon set up the Packers' final touch down and gave them a 24-10 lead. Dixon's run came after Tittle had taken over for Bro die and led his mates on a 42 yard TD drive. Tittle moved the Forty-Nin ers 71 yards in six plays for the second San Francisco touchdown. A 46 yard pass to Wilson was the- key- play. And then with only a min ute to play, Tittle continued his accurate flinging to get the Forty-Niners all the way to the one-foot line when time ran out.

Meeday, Aug. 24, 195 MedfordOITribuhe id Rookies n Exhibition By JOE SARGIS United Press International It's tough taking away an old pro's" job in the Nation al Football league, but three rookies Nick Pietrosante, George Dixon and John Aveni-gave it a try during the week end. While they didn't exactly chase the veterans off the field, the three figured promi nently in their team's exhibi tion victories. Pietrosante, a rugged full back from Notre Dame, picked up 57 yards in seven cracks at the Cleveland line to lead the Detroit Lions to a 3 victory over the Browns; Dixon, a scatback from the University of Bridgeport, con tributed a key 97-yard kick off return that helped the Green Bay Packers scuttle the San Francisco Forty Niners, 24-17, and Aveni, a big end from Indiana, booted a 31- yard field goal as the Chicago Australians Grab Toga By BOB SALMON Chestnut Hill, Mass. (DPD U.S. Davis Cup Capt. Perry T. Jones waxed lyrical today over young Earl Buchholz while hoping Peruvian Alex Olmedo would "hit his cres cendo" in this week end's showdown at Forest Hills, N.Y.

Winner takes the pot the top prize in ten nis starting Friday when the Aussies challenge the United States for the Davis Cup. , Jones was holding his breath during the week-long doubles here, pairing the 23 year-old Olmedo, now living in Los Angeles, with the 18- year-old Bucholz. Many said it was a mistake; that Barry MacKay of Dayton, Ohio, and the Air Force should be team, ed with Olmedo. Turns Tables But Buchholz, a quiet, crew- cut lad from St. Louis, Mo., with more potential than any tennis youngster in years, turned the tables on just about everybody. Fraser and Emerson squeaked through to a 3-6, 6-3, 5-7, 7-5 win, but it was Buchholz who carried Ol medo.

Detroit's John Henry John son climaxed a 65-yard first period drive with a nine-yard scamper around left end and Jerry Perry booted a fourth period field goal that sent the Browns down to their second straight exhibition defeat at Akron, Ohio. The Packers displayed a strong attack and a good de fense in beating the Forty Niners before a crowd of 18,- 916 at San Francisco Sunday afternoon. They scored early and late and then held off a last - minute San Francisco drive to gain their first vie tory in two games. Unitas Tosses 3 TD Passes Aveni's field goal gave the Bears (2-0) a 17-0 lead in the third period and they added another goal hi the final pe riod just before Norm Van Brocklin of the Eagles explod ed for three TD passes in a game at Lynn, Mass. Johnny Unitas, who worked so effectively against the Giants in the NFL title game last December, proved it was no fluke as he threw three scoring passes for Baltimore's second straight victory. Eddie LeBaron, the small est player in the NFL, ' and Johnny Olszewski combined their talents to give the Red skins a 1-1 mark in exhibition play. The 'Skins took the lead in the second period and never trailed. King Hill's long-range pass ing and snappy running plus the dazzling, pass-catching of John Crow were more than the Steelers (1-1) could han dle. King threw two scoring passes to Crow and tallied a third TD himself to 'give the Cards a 3-0 record. . (Jack Morris, ex Medford high, kicked all three convers ions for the Rams against Washington.)

" Sport Parade New York -(DPD-Northwest ern, Southern Methodist and Louisiana State appear today to be the best bets for college football's mythical national championship this fall with another haphazard season in store for the Fighting Irish of Notre Dame. The Big Ten shapes up as another ding-dong grid battle with equally torrid action in the South and Southwest and a scrambled situation on the West coast. Sectionally, the champions well could be: Big Ten-Northwestern. South-West Virginia. Southwest-SMU. Southeast-LSU. East-Army. Atlantic Coast-North Caro lina. West-Southern California. Big Eight-Oklahoma. Skyline-Wyoming. The mighty appear to have fallen in the Big Ten with such titans as Ohio State, Michigan and Michigan State expecting their lumps from resurging. Northwestern, Pur due and Iowa. Northwestern is the choice because of 29 lettermen headed by quarter back Dick Thornton. Irish Have 13 Lettermen Notre Dame has 13 letter men headed by quarterback George Izo but erstwhile pro coach Joe Kuharich will have his troubles under the golden dome. In the West, Southern Cal is tops but, under NCAA sus pension, can't appear in the Rose Bowl. California, ranked number two, is out because it played there last year. So Oregon, Washington State and UCLA will battle possibly for third honors and a non-glittering Rose Bowl position. Led by Quarterback Joe Caldwell and grinding Bob Anderson, Army again should be the class of the East despite Red Blaik's retirement.
