MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, OREGON MONDAY, AUGUST 19. 1963 State Team Thumps Metro 27-0 In Shrine All-Star Grid Tangle Portland -IUPD - Coach Fred Spiegelberg of Medford would not single out a player in vic tory. "They all did a good job," he said. But it was Roseburg quar terback Paul Brothers who led State to a 27-0 victory over Metropolitan in the 16th annual Shriners' Hospital all star football game before 16, 194 persons at Multnomah sta dium Saturday night. It was State's first win in the series since 1956. "You have to mention the whole team," Spiegelberg said. "They all did what they were told to and that's all I could ask," the State coach added. Brothers Most Valuable Brothers, who was named the most valuable player in the game, scored one touch down, started another, ran for 73 yards in 18 carries and hit 5 of 17 passes for 48 yards. Voted the outstanding line man and back for the winners were Roseburg tackle Doug John and halfback Bob Offi cer of South Eugene. Tackle Bob Lawrence of Marshall and Jesuit fullback Pat Casey were selected as the top line man and back for Metro. The Staters held a 7-0 lead at halftime, scored again in the third period and added . their last two tallies in the fl rial quarter. Pond Scores First TD Tackle Bob Pond of Corval lis ran 37 yards for State's first touchdown after recover ing a fumble by Metro quar- terback Barry Hordlof of Da. vid Douglas in the first quar ter. " With iust six seconds to clay in the third period Brothers ran nine yards and then pitched out to Officer, who completed a 94-yard scor ing play. Brothers sneaked across from a yard out and halfback Jim Leacield of Bend ran nine yards for State touch' downs in the final period. Medford's Dan Miles kick ed three extra points. . Shepard Goes 48 State moved in from the 29-yard line for its third touchdown, after a long roll out run by Brothers. The . fourth TD followed a 48-yard punt return by Bob Shepard of Grants Pass to the Metro 22. With Miles generaling, Mike Glines of Crater gained two and Tim Temple of Pen. dleton four yard. A Miles to Glines pass put the ball on the seven yard line. It was the first Shrine vic tory for spiegelberg in six times as a coach for the an nual all-star game. Among those getting partic ular citation for their defen sive work were Medford's .Gary Griffin, Jack Lowery and Lloyd Hammons and Klamath Fall's Ron Hitch cock. Lowery 23 for 7 Lowery packed the ball eeven times for 23 yards for State. Hammons caught two passes for 16 yards, Lowery one for 13 and Glines one for seven.

Shepard intercepted a Metro pass on the final play of the game. Saturday's game was halted at one stage over the protest of state coaches Spiegelberg, Spike Hillstrom and Roy Thompson over alleged illegal variations of the mandatory 6-2-2-1 defense. They charged that Metro stacked its defen sive line and shifted illegally, putting a linebacker head over center.

Till 9 By ALEX KAHN Los Angeles -(UPD- Freckled Dennis Ralston put the Unit ed States back among the world's tennis powers today after he almost singlehanded ly defeated the Mexican Da vis Cup team in the North American zone eliminations. There's still a long way ahead before the U. S. team can invade Australia to chal lenge for the cherished tro phy emblematic of the world's championship. But Mexican captain Francisco Conlreras said the United States has a good chance to go all the way and bring the Davis Cup back to North America. Beats Osuna Ralston clinched the play off Sunday in the first match when he swept aside Mexico's brilliant Rafael Osuna, 6-1, 6-3, 7-5. That victory came after the 21-year-old young ster had teamed with Chuck McKinley Saturday to upset the favored Mexican doubles team of Osuna and Antonio Palafox. Ralston scored the first U. S. singles win Friday over Palafox after Osuna had defeated McKinley in a hard fought five-set match. The doubles win gave the U. S. a lead of two matches to one, and Ralston clinched the elimination matches with his win over Osuna, leaving McKinley s win over Palafox by a score of 6-4, 6-4, 4-6, 6-3 an anticlimax. "That was the best I've ever seen Ralston play in a big match," the articulate Mexi can captain added. "If he keeps up the pace he had in the series, he could become the best player in the world." By PHIL CORWIN Baltimore, Md - IWU- What the Baltimore Colts need most is a bodyguard for quar terback Johnny Unitas. They could also use a few good runners to take a lot of the heat off Johnny's passing efforts. And the task of finding just the right man is the main preoccupation these days of Don Shula, the bright 33-year-old new head coach who replaces Weeb Eubank this season. For the past few years, ever since Alan (The Horse) Ame- che retired, Unitas has not re ceived the pass protection he one enjoyed during the Colts' 1958 and 1959 National Foot ball league championship sea sons. Joe Perry has done a good job at fullback in ball-carrying but he has not been the blocker Ameche was. Others have been tried at that posi tion and been found wanting. Acquire New Fullback So, before the start of this season the Colts acquired 226 pound J. W. Lockett from the Dallas Cowboys with the hopes that he can do the job of keeping enemy rushers off Unitas back. In pre-season games Lock ett has alternated effectively with Perry and it looks as though J. W. will wind up with the starting job at full back. As for the running half back assignment, Shula will have to depend on the same personnel as last year but he expects to generate more yardage by beefing up the line blocking and by use of more varied backfield formations. Lenny Moore, starting his eighth NFL season, will get the first call at running half back. The 190-pound Moore may not be as durable or as elusive as he once was but he remains a two-way threat as a runner and pass-catcher. Be hind him is Tom Matte, who executes the Paul Hornung styled pass-run option play well. Shula has installed four varied backfield formations and also has made frequent use of men-in-motion plays during the pre-season period. Rookies May Help Two rookie players could improve the line-blocking. They are Bob Vogel, 232 pound Ohio State tackle who was Baltimore's No. 1 draft choice, and John Mackey of Syracuse, making a strong bid for the tight end position. Vogel's development has enabled the Colts to return 275-pound Jim Parker to guard, where he won All-Pro honors. Parker was shifted to tackle last season in an emer gency measure to provide bet ter pass-blocking. If all of these moves work out, the Colts should strike a better balanced attack. Last season they went through the air for two-thirds of their to tal yardage. Baltimore has a wealth of pass-receiving talent. Flanker Jimmy Orr and split end Ray Berry are Unitas' old stand bys, along with Moore. R. C. Owens also is available as a spare. Mackey, a good long-pass receiver, is battling the veter an Dick Biclski and rookie Butch Wilson of Alabama for the tight end spot. Sound on Defense Defensively, the Colts are sound everywhere except per haps at tackle, where Billy Ray Smith has retired. Gino Marchetti, a perennial All Pro, and Ordell Braase are fixtures at end; Bill Pelling ton, Don Shinnick and Jackie Burkett return as lineback ers, while Andy Nelson, Jim Welch, Bob Boyd, Lenny Lyles and Wendell Harris man the backfield positions. Fred Miller, 240 -pound rookie tackle from LSU, has impressed on both defense and offense. Two other good looking newcomers are line backer Butch Maples of Bay lor and defensive back Jerry Logan of West Texas State, Big Crowds I See Grid Exhibitions By United Press International Last winter's pro football betting scandals apparently haven't curbed the fans' ap petite for the sport.

Play of Baker Draws Praise Los Angeles - (UPD - The Los Angeles Rams today looked forward to an exciting sea son from rookie quarterback Terry Baker despite a week end setback at the hands of the Minnesota Vikings. Although the Rams went down 27-3 in Saturday night's Viking game in Memorial Coliseum, Baker, the All America player from Oregon State, drew praise DOth from Ram coach Harland Svare and Viking coach Norm Van Brocklin. Svare admitted Baker "moved the ball club," while Van Brocklin enthused the rookie was "a real exciting player," adding "he's going to drive people crazy." One reason for Svare's la conicism might have been the Rams' failure to cash in at the goal line on Baker's marches. The lone scoring play by Los Angeles came in the second quarter on a 29 yard field goal by Danny Villanueva following a 41 yard drive piloted by Baker. You'll Jump at The Savings . . .

After all, this was the Cali-, fornian's first tournament ap-1 pearance since May when he quit during the fourth round of the Tournament of Cham pions at Last Vegas with a hand injury. Casper still looked like a poor bet Sunday when he started the final round at the Wethersfield Country club trailing pace -setting George Bayer by five strokes. However, the 32 -year -old former sailor from Bonita, Calif., fired a six-undcr-par 65 to take the top prize of S6.400 with an aggregate score of 271. Bayer finished a shot back of Casper after settling for a 71 in the final round. Wes Ellis, who led through the first two rounds, slipped to third place with a 275. two shots ahead of Doug Ford. 9 O Air Compressors Water Pumps Cement- Finishing Machines Electric and Gas Cement Vibrators Roller Water Wagon WITH OPERATOR 2 Graders Shovel 4 Cranes Back Hoe Drag Lines Tractors With Bulldozers, Ripper cr Carryall Turnapulls Gunite Machine With Mobile 600 Cu.
