(P Half back Ed Vereb scored three touch downs and passed lor another as second-ranked Maryland slashed North Carolina's defenses Saturday and continued undefeated with a 25-7 victory in an Atlantic Coast Conference football game. Thirty thousand fans watched the terrific Terrapins continue rolling towards the Orange Bowl by hold inn the Tar Heels to only 18 net yards rushing. Prior to Saturday's game. Maryland led the nation in rushing defense wi'h a 45.2 aver age per game. It was Maryland's 10th consecu tive win and North Carolina's third loss against one victory wis sea son. Vereb, a hard-running. 185-pound i.ninr from Pittsburgh, Pa., scored one touchdown from the six and two otners irom mice yards out. In the second quarter, he flipped ninp-vnrd nass to halfback How ard Dare for another touchdown. ATLANTA Wl A magnificent band of Auburn Plainsmen, led by Howell Tubbs, an underrated quar terback, and Jimmy Phillis, a sensational sophomore end, upset unbeaten Georgia Tech 14-12 Sat urday to end a football famine of 14 years. .... Na major breaks figured in the battle of Southeastern Conference Biants. Auburn simply whipped Tech in the line and their fired up backs more than matched Tech's talented crew. The victory put the once-tied winners into the lead in the con ference standings.' The winning touchdown came early in the final quarter with Tubbs' passes eating up H of the 80 yards. Tubbs hit Phillips with throws of 7, 12 and 20 yards, the last play moving the Plainsmen to Tech's. 5. After fullback Joe Chil dress smacked the Tech line for four yards, Tubbs sneaked over. Childress kicked both conver sions and they proved the differ ence, giving Auburn what loo!ts now like a stranglehold on the SEC championship. MORGANTOWN, W. Va. I West Virginia marked its home coming Saturday with a bruising 39-13 football victory over William and Mary, as six different Moun taineers scored touchdowns. The victory was the 15th straight In Southern Conference competi tion, and appeared likely to con tinue the Mountaineers' position as national leaders in total offense, passing offense and scoring in ad dition to its 10th place in the AP poll. GAINESVILLE, Fla.

Bonanza scored once on a 90- yard dash with a recovered fum ble, but a penalty nullfied the run. In the first half, two touchdowns by SlQ Ridenour and a sole tally by Gordon David gave the Panth ers a 20-0 lead. Ridenour scored on a 10 yard tackle play and a one yard plunge. David's TD came on a cass-lateral play that went from Dick Siemens to Mannie Ochoa to David for 50 yards. Siemens scored both extra points. Two third quarter scores came as Siemens went 25 and 40 yards on end runs. In the final period Ridenour collected his third touch down of the afternoon with a 10 yard off-tackle slant to pay dirt, Vic Sission kicked the extra point, Score bv quarters: Chiloquin 14 6 12 7 39 Bonanza 0 0 0 0 0 Women's Softball Meet Rescheduled Because of a small turnout last Thursday evening for the Klamath Falls Women's Softball Associa tion's annual fall meeting, presi dent Mickey Hayman has called another gathering for this coming Tuesday at 7:30 in the city hall.

JayDce Perkins booted seven of eight point after touchdowns for the KU freshmen. IftraliXaru Ducks Display Fleet Backs, Run Over Cal PORTLAND, Ore; ;P Oregon's fleet backs ran panting California Into exhaustion here- Saturday night and scored a 31-0 victory, their first Pacific Coast Conference win of the season. Fullback Jack Morris, a 10-sec-ond 100-yard dash man, raced to two touchdowns and his replace ment, Fred Miklancic, plunged over for the third. California never posed a serious threat. The visitors once pene trated to the Oregon 22. But that came on a drive that took 11 plays to go 20 yards, and the march sputtered to a. halt there. At the start, It appeared that neither team would get going. They went through almost the en tire first quarter without a first down and exchanged punts seven times. But a 24-yard California punt gave Oregon the ball on the Cal ifornia 26 and Oregon seized the opportunity. Four plays moved the ball to the 14, and from there Morris took a pitchout and ram bled around left end to a touch down. Two California tacklers met hiin at the 5, but Morris had full speed up and he simply pushed then, back with him into the end zone. Thai was on the first play of the second quarter and by half time, Oregon held a 14-0 lead. The second score came on a 78- vard drive right after California had made its move to the Oregon 22. It took just six plays with Morris reeling off a key 14-yard run to the California 3. From there Miklancic punched over. The final score came at the stait of the third quarter. Oregon took the opening second halt kick- off and moved 63 yards in 11 plays to a touchdown.

" Coach Lyle Smith's Broncos were a rough herd that rode roughshod over the Owls in the third and fourth quarters. The Idaho team, somewhat astonished at the OT1 first half offensive, returned to the field to chase over three touch downs in the third quarter, and then added four TDs In the last stanza. , First half play favored the Owls, whose lone scoring threat of the evening was a 77-yard inarch that died on the Boise three-yard stripe. Oregon Tech racked up eight firs; downs in the first half to one for the invaders. Boise's weight advantage and rough brand of football began to take its toll on the lighter Owls, who were still smarting from their 60-7 loss last week to Comp ton. The Broncos' first score came with 9:25 remaining in the second quarter Dave Thomas, receiving a bad pass from center, punted poor ly or 13 yards to the Boise 49. George Kom, a 190-pound fullback from Sandpoint, Idaho, rammed center for seven yards on the first play, and Dale Chatterton, who was a 160-pound thorn in me owis Middies Triumph, WP Upset UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa., I Geome Welsh, a 22-yeur-old mid shipman who caUs plays with the daring of a pirate, personally engi neered Navy s fourth victory ol tne fooiball season Saturday as the Midshipmen crushed Penn State, 34-14. It was all Welsh's show, although he received a lot of help from All-America end Ronnie Beagle. Welsh's passes and his cool direc tion of plays shattered a Penn State dclcnse that was though. enouah to contain Navy's runners and ruined a Pei.n State team that was the first to cross Navy's goal this season. The cool voungster from Coal- dale, Pa., set a Naval Academv record when he completed 15 of 20 passes for 285 yards. Beagle was tils best, receiver. WEST POINT, N.Y. W A brilliant pitchout and forward pass despite a downpour of rain, with Don Althouse scoring ou a 22-yard play, stinted Syracuse on a sur prising 13-0 victory over Army Saturday. The aggressive unaerougs lincned the victory with a steady touchdown march In the final quar ter climaxed when Jim Ridlon who passed to Althou.se in the third pe riod for the first touchdown, scored i a sweep lrom the 7. Ai-mv'.i biff football team, smart ing under last, week's 26-2 defeat by Michigan, was favored to win by three touchdowns. Weed Wins Under Lights WEED Weed High School's Cnuuars make a success of the opening of Weed's new lighted foot ball Held rriaay mgni as uiuy stopped the Dunsmulr high grid ders by a 28-13 count. On the fourth play of tne ursi quarter, Weed's Wade Blanken shlp passed 20 yards to Aaron Thomas, who galloped another 30 yards for the score. The second Weed score came on a 10 yard pass-run play from Blankenshlp to Frank Kooinson. Blankenshlp kept the sir-ways clicking for Weed as he hit broth er Dick Blankenshlp and Thomas for two more touchdowns via pass es. Dunsmulr's two scores came on a two yard run by Saren Murray and a 30 yard pass to Mitchell Crowe, halfback for the losers. Hornets Tie Mustangs 6-6 Malin, the pre-season favorite to win the B-league football chase this season pushed the Henley Hor nets, the county's A-2 team to a 8-0 deadlock Saturday afternoon at Henlev. Al Fairchlld's Hornets scored first In the initial period on a three yard buck by Gary Cunningham. The conversion misled. The Hen ley scoring play was ?et up on a 60 yard run with halfback Jerry Longhofer carrying the mall. Malm's lone tally came In the third quarter on a 60 yard Jaunt by Ray Johnson oil-tackle. The run for the extra point was stopped by the Henley forward wall. Henley scored once more In the final quarter, as Dale Bearcy raced Into the end zone, but a penalty called the play back.

INC. riSONR 3661 side all evening, spun and slithered his way through the entire OTI team for the 44-yards to paydirt. His kick for the point was good, and the score stood 7-0, when the half ended five minutes later. Smith's pep talk during the half time intermission must have been excoriating. The Broncos, appar ently shaken by the OTI team's fire and outstanding line play, notched their second touchdown with 10:55 of the third period re maining. Eight plays after the sec ond half klckoff, John Cranston snared halfback Jim Warner's 15 yard aerial, and waltzed 20 yards into the end zone. The try-for-point kick was wide, but Boise held a 13-0 lead. On the following kickoff, Tech's Frank Dunn returned the leather ten yaras to the OTI 25. Thomas-, w'.'.o lo t 13-yards on the 'first two pleys, fumbled on third down, and Boise end Lonnie Park recovered on the Owl five. The third Boise tally came on the ensuing play with George Kom crunching the five yard distance with 6:44 of the quarter played. The try-for-point again was wide, and the vis itors led 19-0. Ron Zarbnisky's 68-yard punt re turn for a touchdown, the longest Individual run of the night, ac counted for the Broncos' fourth score. After taking the ball over on downs the Owls lost on two sus cesslve downs, and Thomas punt ed to the Boise 38. Zarbnisky gath ered in the pigskin and outran the en'ire OTI team to the goal line with 1:15 remaining in the third frame which ended in the Boise team's favor, 25-to-0. Coach Smith, substituting freely during the second half, Inserted Babe Andulza at the start of the final quarter, and three plays la ter the 163-pound speedster crossed Into touchdown territory for Boise's fifth tally with only one minute of the period played. Andulza had packed the ball for 26 yards on the previous play. Bob Brulotte's placement split the uprights to run the 'score to 32-0. Boise's sixth touchdown came with 10:16 remaining. Cal "Sugar" Smith, who replaced Dave Thomas at quarterback, fired a pass in tended for Charles Eccleston, but Gary Hanchcy who played a bang up game for the Broncs at left end, leaped high to intercept the heave. The alert wingman witn a burst of speed eluded the Owl delenders, and romped 35 yards for the tally. The try-tor-point was wide, and Boise's lead rose to 38-0. The next Bronco touchdown came with six- minutes remaining in the game. The Juggernaut weight of the Idaho 1 1 n emen showed its effect in the closing minutes of the contest. On three consecutive plays, the Mile High Campus crew lost 18-yards, and on the fourth down freshman Scott Hartley dropped back to punt, tne pass from center was low, and the ex-ChiloquIn High fullback's at tempt to run the ball was four yards short of the necessary yard age. Taking the ball on downs, the Broncos' Rich Hancock on a cutback over center scampered 12 yards to the Owl 18. On the next play Hancock took a pitchout and swept lett end lor tne score, nis trv-for-polnt was short, and Boise's command stood at 44-0. Fisticuffs enlivened the one-sided hassle after the ensuing kick off. Stan 8mlth, who was a bul wark on defense for Rex Hunsak er's weary warriors, was ejected from the game on the first play following Bob Bulotte's kickoff aft er the 176-pound letterman guard, who had battered the behemoth opposition all night, decked one ol the Broncos with a neat uppercut. The Owls, after an incomplete pass attempt, were penalized 15 yards from their own 25 back to the ten. On the first play. Dave Thomas fumbled on a savage Boise tackle, and Larry Elliott, a 200 pound center from Sweet Home, pounced on the loose pigskin In the end zone for the Broncos' final six point. The try-for-polnt missed the uprights, and the final score board reading favored Boise, 50-0.

That Is as far as professional baseball 'Is concerned. We finally received word from the party who earlier In the year was all fired up on the idea of bringing pro baseball back to the Basin. And from the looks of It, the Idea went for naught. The picture turned from a rosy pink t a thundering black according to Frank Herron, business manager of the Spokane entry In the Northwest League, of which Klamath was reported to have a good chance of gaining entry. Herron was one of the persons In volved in trying to help the people gain back the nation's favorite f TONY TSABcRT , action brings headaches somewhat, but nevertheless the picture seems dark, as we said once before. . Wenutchee drew 79,421 fans second this year, the first season In NWL for the Ems, with a total of 76,823. Salem was next at the 66,441 mark, and from here on down, the attendance at Klamath's Class D games was better than that drawn this past year by Trl-Clty, Spokane, Lewiston and Yakima, which incidentally drew a total of 36,344 fans. Stopping to think, that Is just a little bit better than 50 per cent of the Gems 1050 mark. When thinking of these 1955 attendance figures of the North west League one has to remember that in the last three or tour years, the national picture of sporting event attendances has been on the increase. A few years back major league baseball was hull ing, but look at the 1955 records. Everyone and his second cousin made Increases at the box office. Our own opinion why baseball won't go In Klamath Falls Is this: There are a few businessmen who are In a position to finan cially lend a helping hand, but Herron points out, that a minor as the hometown's businessmen ; The NWL directors met yesterday with president, Babe Hollln bury and what they settled Is unknown at this time. Whoever was consulted here about baseballs return evidently didn't give a good report. So, that's the way the squared ball bounces. It's a shame, but if the people who are able refuse to make the initial step for the Basin's people, there won't be any advance ment for either of the two parties. .

After talks with baseball men and businessmen of our com munity, Herron isn't quite sure the sport will carry in Klamath Falls. To us tills, sounds funny alter the way people of Klamath Falls supported the Gems and the Far West League. According to Herron, he was Informed that the city might be big enough to carry a team but there were not enough surround ing- communities to carry the load. Again wo wonder. Who ever Informed Herron of the failure of the lack of support coming from the outlying towns of the Basin, must not have seen the turnouts for county high school and in dependent athletics. For the size of population, it would be hard to find towns that bnck up their high school or athletic teams like Malin, Merrill, Chiloquin or any of the others. The Gems' best season, ac cording to statistics was in 1950 when they drew over 62,000 fans through the gates. Herron Indi cates Class B ball would have to draw about 80,000. That may be true, but Klamath held better In the FWL than Eugene, and Eu gene was the second or third best drawer In the Northwest League. Here are figures that may dispute Herron's estimate to lead the league, Eugene was tney won't and everyone knows, as league baseball team is just as good make It. while working under amateur statu.
