opening evening of the annual

Th el ni a Parrish Carlson, former
All-American ouliieldcr and several

a pitching duel with Forest Grove's
Thommie Thompson to give the

off Thompson's deliveries.
Leading 1-0 going into the top

errors by her teammates proved

Both tee ni5 played a firrd-up
brand of softball, with the Oswego
rlub showing a little bit more pol

this same type of play that Rave
the Mermaids the 105'J state cham

because they were a local entry,

were 12 points underdogs today for
tonight's 22nd annus! battle with
the Natlonr.l Fooiball i.e'ia,,!-
champion5, this year the Cleveland
Browns.
A crowd of 75.000 was expected
for the Soldier Field spectacle with
gross gate, including television
and radio receipts, of about $4C0,
000. equalling the 1954 record.
The All Stars were prepared for
the scrap by Curly Lambeau, for
mer Green Bay Packer, Chicago
Cardinal and Washington Redskin
Coach, with assistance from Steve
Owen, onetime New York Giants
coach; Hunk Anderson, once with
the Chicago Bears, and Hampton
Poole, former coach of the Los
Angeles Rams.
In the past, the collegians were
trained by college coaches, but the
sponsors switched to the profes
sional staff this season after four
straight defeats by the pros by
cne-sided margins.
The collegians have won six
games, the last in 1950 with a 17-7
triumph over Philadelphia, while
the pro's have 13 triumphs with
two games tied.
The pro's were the favorites this
year chiefly because the Browns,
champions of the All America Con
ference for each year of Its exist
ence, will bring into the game the
same experienced personnel which
carried to the league crown last
year, with only one exception.
Quarterback Otto Graham re
tired during the winter and will
be replaced tonight by George Rat-
lerman, wno saw only Incidental
service last year, but who aver
aged 8.77 yards gained with each
oi nis passes.
nauerman will nave the same
targets that Graham used, mainly
ends Dante Lavelll and Pete Brew
ster. Other receivers could be Dub
uones, Kay Renlro. Ken Konz and
John Petitbon, all standout half
backs. In addition, the Browns boasted
fullback Maurice Bassett. fifth
leading ground gainer in the Na
tional League last year, and an
experienced line both for oflense
and defense.
Against this combination. Lam
beau was expected to start full
back Alan Ameche of Wisconsin,
ouartcrbaci: Ralph Gugiielmi of
Notre Dame, and halfbacks Dick
Moegle of Rice and Dave Middle
ton of Auburn.
The starting All Star line was
to include ends Max Boydston of
Oklahoma and Jim Temp of Wis
consin, tackles Frank Varrichione
of Notre Dame and Rosey Grier
of Penn State, guards Tom Bettis
of Purdue and Larry Morris of
Georgia Tech and center Dick Szy
manski of Notre Dame.
However. Grier, Bettis, Morris,
Temp and Middleton were expect
ed to switch to defense once the
game begins to put more effective
offensive players into action. Prob
ably L. G. Dupre of Rice will re
place Middleton at halfback.
