jBowl Tiff
J By FRED DOWN
; United Pratt International
t The completion of the holi
! day bowl pairings waited to-day
on a decision by Navy
'brass whether to call it a
'perfect season" after, the 43-
12 rout of Army or to try "to
;gild the lilly" by playing
; Penn State in the Liberty
' Bowl.
' Harrassed Liberty Bowl
officials - so far unable to
: stir up any enthusiasm for the
Dec. 19 game - made a des
peration bid to the Middies
Saturday night and Capt. As
bury Coward, director of ath
letics at Annapolis said the
invitation would be taken
under consideration.
The decision may bp made
' today after the executive com
mittee of the athletic depart
ment passes on its recommen
dation! to Rear Admiral
Charles L. Melson, USN, sup
erintendent of the academy.
Sources close to the academy
stressed Navy's traditional
lukewarm attitude toward
bowl games even though the
Middies did play in the Sugar
Bowl, Jan. ! 1955, and in the
Cotton Bowl, Jan. 1, 1958.
"For Navy to accept any
bowl invitation, a special set
of circumstances must exist;
an Annapolis source told the
United Press International.
Liberty Bowl officials in
Philadelphia, meanwhile, ad
mitted they had no other "in
terested candidate." The Blue
erass Bowl, scheduled for
Louisville, Ky., also Dec. 19,
was cancelled Sunday after
both Alabama and Kentucky
rejected invitations.
The following bowl lineups
emerged from the smoke and
fire of the last big Saturday
of the campaign - one ap
propriately filled with up
sets: Rose Bowl: Wisconsin (7-2)
vs. Washington (9-1).
Sugar Bowl: Louisiana
State (9-1) vs. Mississippi (9-1).
Cotton Bowl: Syracuse (9-0)
vs. Texas (9-1).
; Orange Bowl: Missouri (6-4)
"vs. Georgia (9-1).
Gator Bowl: Arkansas (8-2)
"vs." Georgia Tech (6-4).
Bluebonnet Bowl: Texas
Christian (8-2) vs. Clemson (8-
2).
Sun Bowl: North Texas
State (9-1)- vs. New Mexico
State (7-4).
Tangerine Bowl: Middle
Tennessee (8-1-1) vs. Presby
terian (9-1).- v "
Mississippi, Georgia, Geor
gia Tech, and Clemson ac
cepted their invitations Sat
urday after the windup games
of their regular seasons. Mis
sissippi crushed Mississippi
State, 42-0, Georgia downed
Georgia Tech, 21-14, and
Clemson walloped Furman,
56-3.
The Mississippi-LSU game
is a replay of a regular sea
son game won by LSU, 7-3,
and Sugar Bowl officials al
ready are touting it as the
best of the bowl games. Cot

Insist the Syracuse - Texas
match is No. 1 but nobody can

Crusaders, Eagles Knot
12-12 in Championship
Game Here
For the third time in state
playoff history, two strong ag
gregations share the laurels
as Oregon's finest Class B
high school football teams.
That came about here Sat
urday evening when the two
1959 finalists jousted like
champions in a thriller and
finished in a tie. St. Mary's
of Medford and Yoncalla
knotted 12 to 12 before -some
2,500 fans. Now, each will
receive a trophy emblematic
of the crown. '
Yoncalla is justly due its!
glory. Yet, the performance
of St. Mary's reaps the local
pride. For, its titular achieve
ment adds to a banner grid
iron 'year for Medford and
the Valley of the Rogue. Sat
urday night outcome- brought
a second state grid mantle
here since Medford High
school on Friday copped the
A-l prize.
Cliff Hanger
In Saturday night's em
broilment, in which each
team displayed an intrepid
brand of ball, Yoncalla, with
its passing game standing up
to reputation, claimed the
yardage honors. But, the
Eagles twice had to come
from behind and they re
pulsed two late and deep St.
Mary's penetrations to come
out with the tie.
It was a contest' Yoncalla
foach Ron Anderson termed
"a real cliff hanger" as he
praised the nard tackling and
blocking on both sides. The
teams fought through a score
less first quarter. St. Mary's
headed 12 to 6 at half. The
Eagles deadlocked the fracas
with a third stanza touch
down effort.
Wide open offensive action
marked the evening and a
sparkling run from near mid
field and three long passes
got the scores.
Mete Scores
Alex Mete ,of St. Mary's
sliced over right tackle and
streaked 46 yeards for the in
itial touchdown of the night.
Orlan Wiley's pass to Jim
Booth then went for 21 yards
and an Eagle score. Coach
Bill McKibbin's Crusaders
struck back in the dying sec
onds of the half. Bob Evans
lateraled to his brother, Dick,
who tossed long to Roger
Hout on a 60-yard scoring
play. A 24-yard Ron Revelle
to Wiley toss was Yoncalla's
other TD thrust.
The Eagle edge f in net
scrimmage yardage was 327
to 277. St. Mary's led in rush
ing by a close 199 to 193 but
Yoncalla topped the air gains
134 yards to 78. Revelle, Ore
g o n prepdom's outstanding
passer for this year, recorded
nine completions in 13 throws
for 113 yards. He had one in
tercepted. Reason for his, stel
lar year were shown by the
fine reception work of Wiley
and of Booth.
Leads Rushing '
Mete paced the. evening
rushing with 106 yards, on 12
times with the ball. Doug Hol
loman had 75 yards for Yon
calla on 14 running turns.
St. Mary's had its back to
the "wall in the early going
as big, strong ,fast Yoncalla
mads, the game's first scoring
threai against the lighter but
speedy Medford club.
A punt by the Eagle's
Wiley with no Crusader re
turn gave the ball to St.
Mary's on its own 14-yard
line. SM got only to its 17
and Bob Evans kicked. Wiley
on a 15 yard runback reached
the Crusader 37. Thirteen and
nine-yard runs by Wiley and
10-yarder by Holloman had'
carried to the SM five-yard
line when the first quarter
horn was heard.

the recovery into a touch

In six plays the Crusaders

Mete got a fine gap in the
line and romped away to the
goal. Bob Evans' extra ' point

Yoncalla then manufac
tured a TD when Jerry
Reeves' recovery of a muffed
pitch gave the Eagles the ball
on the Crusader 47. Wiley
moved 12 yards on a pitchout.
Holloman bucked for two and
a Revelle to Wiley toss gained
12 yards to the 21. Wiley
chucked to Booth for the
touchdown but Wiley's con
version run was short.
At this point 36 seconds re
mained in the half. Revelle
hooted an onside kickoff
which Fred Lucas took out
of bounds on the St. Mary's
40. Next followed the 60-yard
SM pitch-pass play wnich

to go. Again an Evans' place
ment was blocked.
Yoncalla moved out to the
goal in the third quarter af
ter Guy Palmer fell on a Cru
sader fumble on the Eagle

made it first down on bt.
Mary's 44. Then, with some of
the Yoncalla downfield block
ing which was impressive
through the night, Holloman
went 16 yards on a pitchout
play to the SM 28. Cliff Em
ery bucked four yards. Then,
Revelle hit Wiley for a score,
his 36th touchdown pass this
fall. Keveile, who also nas
tossed 24 conversion passes
this year, threw to Booth on
the bonus try. The pass was
caught but was short of the
goal.
SM Goes to Seven
After Dick Evans 18-yard
return of the kickofl, St.
Mary's had the ball on its
own 40. Mete broke througn
the middle 24 yards to the
Eagle 36. He made another
two and Dick Evans ran for
11. That made first down on
the Yoncalla 23. Mete skirted
end for seven. Dick Evans
bucked for one. Terry Cooper
ran for eight on a pitchout
for another first down on the
seven.
Mete was stopped for no
gain and Dick Evans bucked
a yard. Bob Evans made only
another yard to the five on a
spread play. A fourth down
pass play, Bob Evans to
brother Dick,1 lost four yards
and Yoncalla took over on its
nine.
St. Mary's soon was hand
ed another chance. Helped by
an 18-yard Revelle to Wiley
pass completion, Yoncalla
banged to its 41. There Wiley
fumbled and Don Macpherson
fell on the pigskin for the
Medford club.
On a spread Hout went

downs.
The Eagles, with 18 and
16-yard Revelle to Wiley
passes and a 12-yard slant by
Holloman, surged in nine
plays to the St. Mary's 28.
But Roger Hout intercepted
a Keveile throw giving SM
the ball on its own five.
The Crusaders with a 22
yard Bob Evans to Knutson
pass capping the effort and
using sweeps by Hout moved
out to their 44. A play lost a
yard and on the next play an
intercepted Bob Evans pass,
by Revelle, put the ball in
Yoncalla hands on the Eagle
48.
1 A procedure infraction set
the visitors back on their 43.
A toss, Revelle to Booth,
gained to the SM 49. A pass
was incomplete. The teams
then exchanged penalties.
And, when Revelle to Emery
pass attempt failed, the fin
al horn blared and a co-championship
was assured.
Crusaders Give Weight
St. Mary's outweighed 16
pounds per man in the line,
did a terrific job defensively,
led by Tom Tomjack and Don
Rausch. Wiley and Don
Teague were among top de
fenders for the Eagles.
The Crusaders, with their
only loss to a non-Oregonian
team, Yreka, finished the
year with nine victories. Yon
calla was undefeated in 1959
and had eleven triumphs go
ing into the championship
game. ' ' "
In a way, , the co-title was
appropriate since Yoncalla
was runner-up to champion
Merrill last year and St,
Mary's eliminated Merrill
this fall in district play. Mer
rill gridders were in the
stands rooting for the Crusad
ers. '
There were previously co-
champions in 1954 when Mon
roe and - Union tied and in
1956 when Monroe shared
with Stanfield.

Washington
Seeks Neal
In Trade
By MILTON RICHMAn
St. Petersburg, Fla. - (UPD
The Washington Senators,
last for longer than they care
to remember, took the first
step toward breaking the inter-league
trading log today
by offering Roy Sievers to
the Los Angeles Dodgers for
Charley NeaL
"We'd love to have a guy
like Sievers, especially in our
ball park," General Manager
Buzzy Bavasi of the Dodgers
confessed frankly. "There's
still a chance we can get to
gether on a deal for him."
Chief stumbling block up
to now is the Senators' insist
ence on Neal, whose timely
slugging figured prominently
in the Dodgers' World Series
victory over the White Sox
last month. .
"We can't afford to give up
a player like Neal, Bavasi
said, recoiling at the thought.
Now if they want to talk
about some of the other play
ers maybe we can do busi
ness." . -Maybe
Wills or Zimmer
The Senators might be will
ing to take infielders Maury
Will and Don Zimmer instead
and if that proves to be the
case, the Dodgers might be
tempted.
In any case, the Senators
made it plain they are in the
market.
"We're speaking to several
clubs and something could
pop," pointed out Washington
Manager Cookie Lavagetto.
The Senators, for example,
apparently are willing to give
up righthander Pedro Ramos
to the Giants for outfielder
Felipe Alou. They also have
talked to the Orioles about
southpaw Billy O'Dell, indi
cating they would give Pitch
er Tex Clevenger and an in
fielder for him.

led all the way. Besides his
