And there remain only four weeks of the pro season to un scramble the mess. The mess looks like tins after regain his passing form last week, riddled the 49ers' defenses as the Lions gained 370 yards by passes. Layne's first half brilli ance, helped by rookie Terry Barr's defensive play, shot De troit into a 21-3 halftime lead and the 49ers never recovered. Baltimore's Johnny Unitas fired his 18th touchdown pass of the season but it was a pair of pass interceptions by Milt Davis, a 28- year-old rookie from UCLA, that whipped the Bears. Davis set up one TD with a 78-yard return and ran 41 yards to score after swiping another Chicago pass with the Colts holding only a 16-14 lead. The rams, winning their first away from home since the 1955 season, clinched on Van Brock lin's 34-yard pass to Lamar Lundy after Arnett had scored on a 68 the eighth round of the 12-week yard run to tie the score.

The Lions, with Layne clicking on 17 of 24 passes in the first half alone, rout ed San Francisco 31-10, the 49ers second straight whipping on a road trip that will keep them away from home for another two weeks. The Colts, scoring 16 points in the fourth quarter, downed the Chicago (3-5) Bears, 29-14. The re vived Rams, down 24-3 at the half, rallied behind vet Norm Van Brocklin and ace rookie Jon Ar nett to defeat luckless Green Bay 31-27. In the East, the Browns stum bled a bit in a 30-30 tie with Wash ington but with six victories, a loss and a tie they still hold a half game lead over New York, 6-2 after a 13-0 blanking of Phil adelphia. Pittsburgh and Chicago Cardinals were idle, their game having been put back to Dec. 22. Layne, ace of Detroit's cham pionship teams of a few years back who shook off a., injury to pletions for 250 yards and two TDs. Cleveland put a time worn Brownie formula to work in com ing from off a 10-point deficit with 4 minutes left.

Again O'Connell got the Browns moving and with 13 seconds remaining Lou iThe Toe) broza hit on a 23-yard field goal for the tying points. The punchless Eagles outplayed the Uiants on the attack, but New York's defense turned back four Philly threats, one that came within six inches of the goal line. Philadelphia fumbles set up pair of 26-yard field goals by Ben Agajanian and the Giants closed it out with their only concerted drive, Frank Gifford cutting end for the TD from 5 yards out to climax an 80-yard push, Aggie Defeat Slows Cotton Bowl Plans DALLAS Wi The 7-8 defeat of Texas A&M by Rice that prevent ed the Aggies from sewing up the Southwest Conference champion ship slowed down Cotton Bowl plans somewhat. It will be Thanksgiving Day at least before the title can be de cided and could be Nov. 30. The Conference champion is host team in the Cotton Bowl. But it was going to be Nov. 30 before a visitine team could be officially announced anyway be cause of the status of Navy in Cotton Bowl plans and because of a Southeastern Conference rule that prevents any team accepting a bowl bid or an invitation being extended before that date. It is generally understood that Navy would accept a bowl bid if it beats Army. Bob Cullum. Cotton Bowl presi dent, said today Mississippi, Ten nessee, Mississippi state and Georgia Tech also are still promi nent on the list. Cullum was in Memphis Satur day and saw Mississippi defeat Tennessee 14-7. He said, "Tennes see still looks good. It lost nothing in its standing by losing this very fine game. Tennessee would be a good bowl team." - He said Mississippi Mate could add to its stature if it should de feat Mississippi Nov. 30. Georgia Tech has lost three games, but they were to top out fits and good games and Cullum said the Yellow Jackets were still under consideration.

"We were simply outblocked and outtackled for the second straight week," Albert said, refer ring to Sunday's 31-10 shellacking at the hands of the Detroit Lions. "I don't know why, but we just didn't have the hustle." The San Franciscans arrived here today from Detroit and will remain in the Windy City until they leave for Baltimore Thursday for the second tilt in their three game road swing. Albert called Sunday's loss to We Goofed . .

Rangers Regain NHL Leadership By UNITED PRESS Although the embattled New York Rangers scored back-to-back victories over the Montreal Cana diens in their weekend series to regain first place in the National Hockey League, coach Phil Wat - son admits "we'll be lucky to get in the playoffs.'1 The Rangers, backed up by the brilliant netminding of M,a reel Paille, rolled to a 4-2 victory over the Canadiens at Montreal Satur day night and then beat the de- T fending Stanley Cup champions by "the same score Sunday. night at new York.

The Lions completely dominated Sunday's tilt as Detroit quarter back Bobby Layne had his best day ot the season before ' 56,915 Briggs Stadium fans. The 30-year-old quarterback had 17 completions in 24 pass at tempts, including a 65-yard scoring pass to Jim Doran.

By UNITED PRESS Oregon has ended 37 years of frustration by nearly -clinching possession ot the Pacific Coast Conference title and definitely the right to go to the Rose Bowl. Coach Len Casanova s hardened veterans moved closer to the title on Saturday by grinding out a 16- 7 triumph over Southern Can fornia while Oregon State doomed Stanford's last faint chance of staying alive in the race with a 24-14 lacing. Oregon, one of the four teams eligible to go to the Pasadena saucer in the strife-torn confer ence, last played there in 1929 and was delealed by Harvard, . 7-6. Oregon State could deadlock the Wcbfoots in the final standings by defeating them next Saturday. But the "no repeat" rule keeps the Beavers from Rose Bowl consider ation. The Ducks won their sixth con ference tilt out of seven against a penalty-ridden Southern California team which was barred from fielding seniors this year and sus pended from the bowl because of code infractions. Jack Morris, the Ducks' steady fullback, was the Mr. Big in the triumph. He got off a 63-yard touchdown run and connected on a 21 yard field goal which actually gave Oregon all the points it needed in the first period. In the meantime, tailback Joe Francis had his biggest day for Oregon State by scoring twice and passing for another touchdown as he personally wrecked Stanford. The Honolulu hotshot accounted for 274 yards on the land and in the air. surpassing the 203 he con tributed in the last New Year's Irish Campus Celebrating Football Win Day vain effort against Iowa UCLA, which has a chance to finish second if it beats weak Southern California next Saturday and Oregon tips the Beavers, downed College of the Pacific, 21- The Tigers were guilty of fum bles at the wrong time which made things easier for Coach Red Sanders squad. A 34-yard touch down run after Barry Billington nut the ball up closer with a 50- yard romp helped sew things up for the UCLANS. Washington, which holds upset wins this year over both Oregon teams, outlasted California, 35-27, as the Bears reeled to their eighth loss in nine games. Cal narrowed the gap to 21-20 during the second half but Don Millich eventually insured the Huskies' triumph with his second touch down run of the day, a 26-yarder. Washington State defeated Ida ho. 21-13. in their popular rivalry with Cougar quarterback Bob Newman doing most of the dam age. He flipped - for two touch downs, intercepted a pass and gobbled up an Idaho fumble to tame the Vandals. Arizona (Tempe) State, red-hot and undefeated, tuned up for next Saturday's tilt with COP by blast ing Montana State. 53-13. Fullback Joe Belland of the Sun Devils scored three times, once on an 80 yard gallop. Fresno State downed San Jose State, 13-6, with quarterback Mike Pralt passing to Darrell Moody for 55-yards and one touchdown and setting up the second with a 33-yarder to George Van Zant.

(-Foot-i ball thrills are not few and far between at Notre Dame but Sat urday's stunning 7-0 upset over Oklahoma will find its place in Irish gridiron archives. Go back to the days when Knule Rockne and Gus Gorais led the Irish to a 35-13 upset victory over Army in 1913 and come down through the era of Frank Leahy and you'll find that unbeaten sea sons, winning streaks and big sur prises are part of the Notre Dame tradition. But the triumph over Oklahoma that ended a record-breaking 47 game winning streak was best de scribed by Coach Terry Brennan today when he said: "It was really something, wasn't it?" The victory marked a celebra tion on the Irish campus which was to continue through today. The Rev. Theodore M. Hesburgh, president of the university, pro claimed a school holiday. "We got in at 9:30 Saturday night," said Brennan, "and there were thousands of people at the airport. Then we came to the school and ran into about 4,000 students. Even as late as 1 o'clock in the morning lights were burn ing in the dorms and I guess the students were still celebpating. now did the Irish win the game? Its a big pie and we have to cut it up in a lot of pieces," said Brennan. "The team, naturally. deserves the credit but the coaches and scouts had a lot to do with it. We just buckled down, worked hard and found it paid off. "Another big help was that we had three of their game movies. I can honestly say that it s the first time in two years that we put together a real ball game. I'm not trying to belittle the teams we've played but this time we did the job. Brennan, after losing to Navy 20-6 and Michigan State 34-6, in sisted his team was not as bad as it had appeared. "The Navy game was the worst we played," said Brennan, "and we made too many mistakes against Michigan State." Brennan also had nothing but praise for Oklahoma. "They played a One game and took the loss graciously," he said.

One A-l team Portland s Jef fersonthree A-2 and three Class B teams went through last week end's quarterfinal play and kept their' season records clean. The Saturday games were marked' by relentless offenses of the winners. Only one contest was close. South Salem lived up to its No. 1 ranking in the final Associated Press poll of the season by blast ing Milton-Freewater 25-7. For Mac-Hi, No. 11 in the final poll, the defeat was crushing, for the Eastern Oregon team was held to a minus 10 yards rushing. South Salem now will meet Springfield, No. 2 in the poll, in a semi-final game. The other A-l victor Saturday night was fourth-ranked Beaver ton, which disposed of Medford by blanking the No. 9 team 19-0. Beaverton now is pitted against Jefferson, No. 3 and champion of the Portland league. In the A-2 bracket, the most stunning aspect of Saturday's play was Seaside's 41-0 trouncing of Banaon. In other A-2 games Vale clipped Serra Catholic of Salem 25-7, and Elmira edged Glendale 20-13. The latter was the only close one of the top bracket games. Both teams went into the game unde feated. Vale is now matched with El mira in the semis, and Seaside will meet Willamina, which won its berth Friday. South Salem displayed its usual strong running attack and its traditional stout defense in blast ing Milton-Freewater. Two of South Salem's touch downs came on six-yard jaunts by Bill Harrison and Cliff Johnson. Mac-Hi, choked on the ground, finally took to the air. And a 65 yard pass play from Butch Feign er to Steve Bye gave Mac-Hi its lone TD. TIME OUT At Beaverton Saturday night, Mick Sinnerud and Mike McGet- tigan teamed up to supply the winners with all their touchdowns. McGettigan threw a 12-yard pass to sinnerud for one score, plunged two yards for another, then Sinnerud capped the victory with a 34-yard scoring run. Serra traveled into Eastern Oregon for its A-2 game, and held a 7-6 edge when Vale exploded for three touchdowns in the final period.' Frank Hawley led the drive running for two TDs and Gary Smith pitched 19 yards for an other. Serra got its sole score on a 50 yard pass from Bill Hamilton to Jerry Brown. Elmira also had to come from behind in the waning minutes for its triumph over Glendale. A 40-yard pass play from Gary Waldien to Ken Prather was the margin of victory. At Seaside Steve Picard raced to four touchdowns as his team crushed Bandon. His tallies in cluded touchdown jaunts of 58 and 48 yards. He also caught a 33 yard touchdown pass.
