ond decision in two days, said

year to tho poychecks of 3500

The commission also ordered
the employers to grant back pay
to all of the 8600 workers who
had been paid less than 821 cents
an hour since the inception of

Sport Notes
By FRED HAMPSON
Associated Press Staff Writer
BUI Gray's breath-taking
touchdown for Oregon State last
Saturday against Washington
State will rank as one of the
season's unusual plays, even
though it didn't prevent a Beav
er drubbing from the Holling
berys. Gray, soph center of the Ore
gon team, aided by Orv Zellas
kowski who lured one of the
Cougar guards out of position,
romped through unhindered Into
Washington State's backfield
just as Bob Kennedy was toeing
off a good healthy punt.
Gray galloped into the line of
flight, so close that the thud of
Kennedy's shoe on the ball and
the thud of the ball In Gray'a
middle were simultaneous.
Punts often are blocked by the

But by some magic or reflex
or accident or something, Grs?
held onto the football and by
virtue of what momentum he
had left waddled the Interven

touchdown.
The episode was to sudden and
so startling that one wonders
maybe the football was driven so
far into Mr. Gray that by the
time he got it loose ha was over
the goal line. Whatever the
cause, the play wag on In
