Newspaper Page TextDivision In Hectic By NORMAN MILLER UP! Sports Writer Jimmy Brown rode to glory by land and Y.A. Tittle through the air, but rookie Ron Vnnder kolcn scrambled his way to fame, just like he did in the last Rose Bowl game. All In all, it was a hectic Na tional Football League Sunday that produced two records, two tie games and the further tight ening of both conference races. Brown gained 179 rushing yards in the Cleveland Browns' 24-10 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals and set a new NFL single-season record of 1,677. He broke his own mark of 1,527 gained in 1958. Tittle's winning 17-yard touch Jorde, Armstrong Head Crater High CENTRAL POINT Turnout of six lettermen and transfers from Brookings and Oklahoma and return of three matmen with experience who were not on the squad last year bolster the hopes of the Crater High Comets in wrestling. Coach Jim Tacchini reports a squad of some 35 boys including a lot of sophomores and juniors who have wrestled in the past. Topping the list of returnees are Steve J n r d e and Frank Armstrong. Tacchini considers them best hopes for district honors. However, there s a problem in that they are at the same weight and are very even. It's possible, therefore, that one may wrestle at the next high er weight class. Other lettermen are John En geli, Jim Pills, Don Kirkham and Dave Anderson. Transfers include Steve Wiege and Mike Burnett. Back with the squad after not participating last year are Richard Tidemand, Dclliff Kirkendall and Joe Meade. Robert Bruce is a non-lelterman senior. The 90-pound class is a ques tion mark but Butch Bray is trying to make the weight by next Wednesday's weigh-in deadline. Engeli, last year's (IB man, is a chief contender at 106 pounds and Bray will be there if he docs not make the lighter weight. Man To Watch At 115 pounds, Anderson, Meade, and Tidemand arc pos sibilities. There are quite a few candidates at 123 but Wiege from Brookings is reportedly the man to watch. Meade is Los Angeles Rams Trim SF 21-17 Bv JOE SAIUIIS UPI Sports Writer SAN FRANCISCO (UPI) The San Francisco Forty Niners lost the ball game, and maybe coach Jack Christiansen's job, too, but they won the right to pick first today In the National Football League draft. The Forty Niners, making enough mistakes to lose two games, bowed to the Los An geles Rams, 21-17, Sunday at Kezar Stadium. It was their "flense.

Halfback Mel Renfro of Ore. gon was chosen in Hie lnth round by the Oakland Raiders. 6 MONDAY, UECKMHUK 2. 1963 Races Tighten Day of Football down pass to Del Shofner in the New York Giants' 34-27 triumph over the Dallas Cowboys gave him a career record of 197 TD tosses, one more than the old mark set by Bobby Layne. The Cleveland and New York wins kept them tied atop the Eastern standings with 9-3 rec ords while St. Louis dropped back to third with 8-4. VandcrKelcn Shines Of less permanent signifi cance, but just as heroic among the day's achievements, was the emergency perform ance of VandcrKelcn in the Minnesota Vikings' 17-17 tie with the favored Chicago Bears. In Sunday's other games, the Mat Turnout also working on this weight but likely will be at the lower one Sherm Simmons, transfer from Medford, drew mention from Tacchini at 130. The coach said that right now he does not know whether the 136-pound class will be filled. At 141 are Joe Thomas, Greg Applen, Roger Rutan and Russ Lamb. Kirkendall appears to Be the leader at 148. Others are Gary Price, Kirkham and Bruce. Jim Pitts Is the probable top man at 157. Mike Yager came close to a letter last year and Tacchini looks for good things from him. The 178-pound situation, of course, depends on what hap pens at 168. Robin Roeder is a young grapplcr working hard at 178. At 191 Is Mike Burnett, senior transfer from Oklahoma, and in the unlimited class is Don Ehr heart. The Comets go to Roscburg on Dec. 8 and to Glcndale on Dec. 9. Their first home match is on Dec. 14 against Suthcrlin. Cincinnati, Duke Fives Impressive By SANDY I'ADWE UPI Sports Writer Cincinnati, Duke and Wichita made some vivid and lasting impressions during the opening weekend of the college basket ball season. Judging by their performanc es against relatively strong opening game opponents, the three teams ranked second, fourth and fifth in the nation- should offer Loyola of Chicago plenty of opposition for the na tional title. The Bearcats beat George Washington, 101-65; Duke beat Penn State, 92-62; and Wichita defeated Wyoming, 82-67. Ron Bonham hit on 11 or 16 shots from the field and had 31 points for Cincinnati while teammate George Wilson helped by collccling 14 points and 14 rebounds. Jeff Mullins was Duke's lop scorer with 25 points, but the most impressive aspect of the Blue Devil opener centered on 10 overcome a sensational per formance bv Wyoming sopho more Leon Clark, who had 33 points.

Stacey Sulli van, president of the host Pa cilic Southwest AAU, will be convention chairman. Pittsburgh Stcclers and the Philadelphia Eagles battled to a 20-20 tie; the Baltimore Colts trounced the Washington Red skins, 36-20; and the Los Ange les Rams defeated the San Francisco Forty Niners, 21-17. The Bears, with a record of nine victories, one defeat and two ties, compared to the Green Bay Packers nine vic tories, two losses and one tie now cannot afford another de feat. VandcrKelcn got his chance to play against the Bears when Fran Tarkcnton was injured early in the game. The former Wisconsin star set up Minneso ta's first touchdown with a 30- yard pass to Gordon Smith. VandcrKelcn then completed a 53-yard pass to Smith for the first touchdown pass of his pro career. Rears Battle Back The Bears battled back in the second half, however, to wipe out that 17-3 halftime deficit. Billy Wade went over on a one yard buck after a Viking punt gave the Bears possession on Minnesota's 49-yard line and his eight-yard scoring pass to Joe Marconi tied the game with 7:49 remaining. Jimmy Brown broke his rush ing record with a 61-yard bolt in the first period. He scored two touchdowns on short car ries to give the Browns a 21-3 halftime lead and they coasted home from there. Frank Ryan passed 23 yards to Rich Krcil ling for Cleveland's first touch down. New York, harrassed during the first half by a fierce Dallas defense and the rushing of Don Perkins and Amos Marsh, bat tled back from a 27-14 halftime deficit to win. Three of Tittle's passes were intercepted during the first half before he rallied the Giants. A 24-yard field goal by Lou Michaels with 40 seconds re maining enabled Pittsburgh to tie Philadelphia and remain in the running. It was the Stcel ers' third deadlock this season, and second against the Eagles. The Stcclers trailed 17-3 enter ing the final quarter but bat tled back on a pair of touch down passes from Ed Brown to Gary Ballman. lohnny unitas, in one 01 nis old-time performances, com pleted 24 of 37 passes for 355 yards in Baltimore's win over Washington.
