Pittsburgh Steelers Spill Cleveland 9-7; Green Bay, Chicago Tilt next Sunday MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON MONDAY, NOVEMBER 11. 1963 By NORMAN MILLER UPI Sports Writer The National Football League stages the game-of-the-year next Sunday in Chicago and a few million fans are wondering just what the Green Bay Pack , ers' super-team will do against the Bears' amazing defense. Defense? That's the fad among the best NFL clubs as the season goes into its 10th week with two-team ties for first place in both divisions. The rough-tough Pittsburgh Steelers put forth their best de fense to upset Jimmy Brown and the Cleveland Browns, 9-7, Sunday and throw the Eastern Division into a four-team rat race. The New York Giants (7-2) pulled even with the Browns for the lead by drub bing the Philadelphia Eagles, 42-21. The Bears had little except defense as they held the Los Angeles Rams to a net total of 88 yards (rushing and passing) and won, 6-0, on Roger Le Cllerc's two field goals. The Packers' defense kept the Minnesota Vikings in line until the champs pulled away in the second half on John Roach's passes to win 28-7. Green Bay and Chicago are tied with 8-1 records. Cards In Race The St. Louis Cardinals (6-3) remained in contention, only a game behind the deadlocked Browns and Giants, with a 24-20 victory over the Washington Redskins; the San Francisco Forty Niners upset the Dallas Cowboys, 31-24, and the Balti more Colts edged the Detroit Lions, 24-21, in the three other games played. To get back to the Bears and Packers. They meet next week at Wrigley Field in a battle that should determine which will go on to win the Western title. The Bears won their first meeting, 10-3, on the opening Sunday of the season and Green Bay since has reeled off eight straight wins. Chicago has yielded only 82 points in nine games for one of the most remarkable defensive records in recent NFL history. The Bears' defense is so good they can win without scoring a touchdown. They played ball control against the Rams Sun day and won on LeClerc's field goals of 30 and 16 yards in the first and third periods. The Packers should have Bart Starr back next week but they certainly can't complain about the fill-in job Roach has done for three games. Roach threw three touchdown passes after the Vikings had taken a first Deriod lead on Frank Tarken- ton's 18-yard toss to Paul Flat- ley. Hold Brown Down The Steelers (5-3-1) held Jim. my Brown to less than his us ual rushing average oetore a crowd of 54,497 at Pitt Stadium. Ed Brown's nine-yard pass to Gary Ballman in the final pe riod produced the winning points. Brown set up that score with a 41-yard pass lo uuaay Dial. Jimmy Brown gained 40 of his 99 yards during Cleveland's 74-yard touchdown march in the second period. Frank 'Ryan Everett Moore To Be Honored For Game Commission Service PORTLAND - Fifteen Game Commission employees with an accumulated total of 474 years of service in the field and game management for the state of Oregon will receive honors at a public ceremony, Nov. 22, at the Game Commission's Portland headquarters.

Moore started his fish cultural activ ities in 1921 and has served continuously as superintedent at Butte Falls since his transfer there in 1926. Two more hatchery superin tendents, Charles Roadarmel of the Cedar Creek hatchery on the Ncstucca near Hebo, and Lynn Webb of the Leaburg hatchery on the McKenzie, have passed four yards to Gary Col lins for the score. The Steelers scored two points in the third period when Brown was tackled in the end zone by Bob Schmitz while attempting a pass. Y.A. little threw three touch down passes, completing 16 of 20 attempts for 261 yards be fore retiring late in the third period. He also set up two other Giant touchdowns with long passes. Charley Johnson completed three touchdown passes as the Cardinals withstood Washing ton's two-touchdnwn rally in the last period to win. The Cards final touchdown was set up when Washington's Bobby Mitchell touched a St. Louis punt and rookie linebacker Lar ry Shillings fell on the ball on the Redskins' 14-yard line. Johnson passed the remaining distance to Sonny Randle for what proved to be the winning score. The Forty Niners overcame a three-touchdown, 460-yard pass ing performance by the Cow boys' Don Meredith to win their second game of the season. La mar McHan completed three touchdown tosses for San Fran cisco. Baltimore scored on each of its first four series of downs to go ahead 24-7 and then beat off Detroit's late rush.
