MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON MONDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 1963 Cards Upset Giants 24-17; Browns Trip Cowboys in NFL By NORMAN MILLER UPI Sports Writer The St. Louis Cardinals should be grateful to their un derrated defense for boosting them into a triple tie for the National Football League's Eastern Division lead, and the Chicago Bears can thank Roger LeClerc that things aren't all knotted up in the West, too. The Cardinals upset the New York Giants, 24-17, Sunday and made it a new race in the East ern Division. The Cleveland Browns, by defeating the Dal las Cowboys, 27-17, joined in the first-place tie with St. Louis and New York. All have 8-3 records. The Pittsburgh Steelers near ly threw the Western Division into a deadlock, too, but Le Clerc kicked an 18 - yard field goal with 4:31 remaining to give the Bears a 17-17 tie. The Green Bay Packers, who defeated the San Francisco For ty Niners, 28 - 10, would have tied for the lead if the Bears had lost. Chicago now has a 9-1-1 record; Green Bay is 9-2. In Sunday's other games, played on a Sunday of mourn ing for President Kennedy, the Los Angeles Rams edged the Baltimore Colts, 17-16; the Min-, nesota Vikings squeezed past I the Detroit Lions, 34-31; and the Washington Redskins de feated the Philadelphia Eagles, 13-10. Broke 17-17 Tie The Cardinals broke a 17-17 tie against the Giants on Char ley Johnson's three-yard touch down pass to Bobby Joe Con rad early in the final period. Garland Boyette set up the score by recovering a fumbled punt by the Giants' Ed Dove on the New York 20. At Pittsburgh, the Bears twice went ahead on short touchdown runs, by Willie Galimore and Ron Bull, only to have the Steelers come back to score on Dick Hoak's six-yard run and Ed Brown's ,31 yard pass to rookie Roy Curry, tying the game at halftime, 14-14. Lou Michaels put the Steelers ahead with an 11-yard field goal in the final quarter, four min utes before LeClerc tied the score permanently. Jimmy Brown gained only 51 yards in 17 carries against Dal las, leaving him 30 yards short of his own NFL season rushing record of 1,527. But Frank Ry an threw touchdown passes of 11 and 16 yards to Gary Collins and Ross Fichtner ran back an interception 36 yards for another Cleveland TT. The Browns ip.' tercepted four passes by Don Meredith during the second half. The Packers, with Bart Starr back at quarterback, scored all 28 points during the first half against the Forty Nineis. Eli jah Pitts, filling in for injured Tom Moore, threw a 21 - yard touchdown pass to Ron Kramer and also ran 14 yards for an other score. Danny Villaneuva's 13 - y a r d field goal in the third period produced the Rams' upset win over the Colts. Art Perkins scored two Los Angeles touch downs of one-yard bucks and Jim Martin kicked Baltimore field goals of 39, 22 and 41 yards. Fran Tarkenton's passes to Paul Flatley set up a two-yard touchdown plunge by Tommy Mason with less than two min utes to play and gave Minne sota its win over Detroit. Bob Khayat's field goals of 37 and 22 yards, followed by Dick James' spectacular catch of a 31 - yard touchdown pass from Norm Snead, produced all of Washington's points during the first half against the Eagles.

Only the spir it. Maybe you'll remember that in the era fllowing World War I they had at Notre Dame a foot ball player named George Gipp who promised to become one of the greatest of them all. Ex cept that he was taken ill and died. And there came a day there after when Knute Rockne gath ered around him at halftime a Notre Dame team which was being beaten by Army and told them of the "Gipper's" last re quest. "He told me that, someday when things were going bad, to have the team win one for the Gipper," Rockne said to them. Trounced the Army Notre Dame went out and ground Army into the ground. And, as a guy named Jack Che vigny, later to die with the Ma rines at Iwo Jima, burst into the end zone with the winning score, he looked up into tne heavens and yelled: "There's the one for you, Gip per." Corny, maybe. And it is pos sible that the "Rock," a master strategist, also was guilty of a bit of "corn." But he taught them, as Che vigny proved later on the field of battle, the value of the in definable something called "heart." . . Most All These Models H5 Which makes me feel a slight bit ill when I read some of the things they blamed on the trag ic happenings in the city of Dallas. Such as the story out of Aus tralia when Dennis Ralston was beaten in the South Australian tennis finals. It alibied that a "listless" Ralston bowed because he was "saddened" by the death of our President. He had gone on the court, it related, only after be ing "urged" by U.S. Ambassa dr William Battle. Needed A Rockne He should have had a Rockne urging him on. Then, like Chevigny, he might have gone out and won one for the man and the legend. Cry in your beer if you want to do so. But always I keep thinking of the Rock and Che vigny and winning one for the Gipper." You don t surrender. You fight all the harder. The more lead in your heart the more lightning in your hand. It's the way any skipper would want it. I have to hope they play the Army-Navy football game this weekend. Not because it's a spectacle or because I hope to see the Cadets spring an upset. But because these kids deserve to play the game they've been looking toward all season. The bruises are there for all of us. But let's wear them on the heart, not on the sleeve.
