town Sets Rushing Mark,
oosts Cleveland into Lead
By THK ASSOCIATED PRESS
Thundering Jimmy Brown.
Cleveland's running virtuoso, to
day had picked one of the Na
tional Football League's juiciest
plums, was near another, and had
propelled the Browns closer to a
division championship.
The barrelling Cleveland full
back set a season rushing record
Sunday as the Browns regained
undisputed possession of first
place in the Eastern Conference
with a 20-10 victory at Washing
ton. Brown gained 132 yards in 27
tries, totally eclipsing the stand
ard of 1,146 yards set in 12 games
by Steve Van Burcn of Philadel
phia in 1949. The former Syracuse
All-America has amassed 1,163
yards in only eight games.
A sophomore in pro ranks.
Brown scored twice on short
plunges. The Cleveland standout
has 17 touchdowns for the season,
one short of Van Buren's record.
Cleveland's triumph, coupled
with the 31-10 upset of the New
York Giants by Bobby Layne and
hi' Pittsburgh mates, left the
Browns on top with a 6-2 record.
Runner-up New York is a game
back at 5-3.
The race in the Western Confer
ence virtually was broken wide
open as Baltimore's second-string
quarterback, George Shaw, passed
the Colts to a 17-0 triumph over
Chicago's Bears. Baltimore, has
a 7-1 record for a two-game lead
over Chicago and Los Angeles.
The Rams tied for the runner-up
spot by knocking off Green Bay
20-7.
In other games, halfback Gene
Gedman led the way as Detroit
pasted San Francisco, 35-21, and
Philadelphia easily handled Chi
cago's Cardinals 49-21.
Browns 20, Skins 10
Brown scored on plunges of one
and five yards, but it was a Lou
Groza field goal that beat the Red
skins. The teams had traded
touchdowns and field goals in the
first hall for a 10-10 tie. With 2:10
remaining in the game, Groza
booted a 25-yardei- for the victory,
although moments later Brown
tallied an insurance TD. Washing
ton missed quarterback Eddie Le
Baron, out with an injurv. He was
replaced by Ralph Guglielmi.

OSC Boss
Praises
Beamer
CORVALLIS (API Oregon
State's 24-16 victory over Stan
ford was a team effort, coach
Tommy ' Prothro said Sunday
night. But he quickly added:
"I think Beamer had his best
day of the year."
Nub Beamer, a big fullback
from Roseburg, ran as well as
ever, and romped 44 yards for
OSC's initial touchdown.
And then he unfurled a sur
prise touchdown pass that com
pletely fooled Stanford and pro
vided the margin of victory.
That pass really wasn't much
of a surprise, said Prothro.
"Beamer has thrown one or
two passes every season he's
been here."
But then he said it was only
the second aerial that Beamer,
a senior, has attempted this sea
Eon. Stanford apparently was fooled
because in a single wing forma
tion, as the Beavers use, nearly
every pass is thrown by the tail
back. And it isn't too often that
the fullback even receives the
pass from the center.
Prothro explained Beamer's
touchdown pass play this way:
"We throw from a spin series
occasionally. On this play, Bea
mer got the ball and then spun
and faked to the tailback. Then
he faked to the wingback and
threw the oass."
The aerial sailed 27 yards to
Roger Johnson, who took it on
the Stanford 27 and romped for
the end zone. The Stanford del
enders had drawn in, expecting a
running play.
Another big factor in the vic
tory, said Prothro, was the run
ning of Earnel Durden, who
scored OSC's mother touchdown on
10-yard run. ,
Injuries,
Fumbles
Hurt ISO
EUGENE 'API Iniuries and
fumbles, as usual, contributed to
Oregon's 7-3 loss to YCLA, coach
Len Casanova said here Sunday
night.
"Our injuries and our fumbles
hurt us as they have right along.
we ve played a lot tougher teams
than UCLA, Casanova said.
And, he added, the Ducks will
meet a tougher one still when
they play Oregon State, their
traditional rival, at nearby Cor
valiis Saturday in the final sched
uled game of the season for both
teams.
Even before' the game begins
said Casanova, Oregon's injuries
are nearly certain to affect its
outcome.
Halfback Charlie Tourville, the
lone backfield veteran from last
year's Rose Bowl squad, re-in
jured a knee against UCLA Satur
day in Los Angeles.
He definitely will be lost for
the Oregon State game, Casan
ova said.
Casanova also ticked off this
list of other injuries:
Halfback Len Read, possible
concussion: halfback Don Laud
enslager, injured knee: tackle
Jim Linden, elbow injury, and
quarterback Sandy Fraser, leg
injuries.
The coach said those four prob
ably will be able to play. But
two others Drobably'will be sidc
lined all week: end Ron Stover
with iniuries suffered two weeks
ago and center Dave Fish, kicked
in the groin playing against
UCLA.
"We've got loo many injuries,
Casanova said. "We will have a
very light drill Monday. And I'll
know more after that what kind
of practices we'll have the rest, of
the week.
"But right now it looks as if
we will take a kind of light week
as far as contact work is concerned."
Casanova said the team was
depressed over its loss, but added
the players probably will be up
for the Oregon State game.
"It's a traditional game. We
always hope that anything can
happen. We hope it will happen
in our favor for a change.
Willamette
Dealt Loss
By THE ASSOCMTED PRESS
The Willamette University
Bearcats Saturday stepped out
side the Northwest Conference
and absorbed their first defeat of
the 1958 season. Arizona State
College at Flagstaff dropped
them 7-0 at Yuma, Ariz.
The stout Lumberjack defense
stopped three Willamette scoring
drives short of the goal line.
Then, in the final period, the
Lumberjacks punched across a
lone score as quarterback Ted
Sorich passed 23 yards to Al Rex.
Sorich also kicked the extra point.
The victory padded Arizona
State ranks as No. 2 among the
ration's small colleges. Willam
ette was No. 3 last week.
Joe Kapp, Bears
Aimed At Bowl
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
California's Golden Bears, with
quarterback Joe Kapp showing
the way, appear headed for Pasa
dena and the Rose Bowl for the
first time since 1951.
Only a grandiose upset in their
"big game" Saturday against
Stanford would keep Coach Pete
Elliott's split T Bears from win
ning (he title in the final season
of the dying Pacific Coast Confer
ence.
Coach Tommy Prothro of Ore
gon State, whose club beat Stan
ford 24-16 last Saturday and pre
viously dumped Cal 14-8, sum
marized: "Coach Jack C ur t i c e has
brought his Stanford team along
very well, but I can't foresee that
it has a chance against California."

HAVANA (AP) Now that
George Bayer is harnessing his
mighty power he is threatening to
become one of the great all-time
attractions of golf, as say, Sam
Snead.
People love a slugger. They
made Babe liuth an idol in base
Ball and Jack Dempscy one in
boxing. For years they have
flocked to watch Snead, the grace
ful, prodigious fairway slammer
Irom West Virginia.
Now comes Bayer, a fantastic
giant of a man who stands 6-5 and
hits the ball farther than any man
lias hit one before.
The titanic former football tack
le from the University of Washing
ton won a dramatic sudden death
playoff from Snead Sunday for the
S6..JD0 top prize in the Havana In
ternational Golf Tournament.
If Havana officials had dictated
the script they could not have
asked for a more exciting finish
over the Villa Real Golf Club
course.
Bayer was in with a 72-hole
score ot 286 when Snead came to
the 18th needing only a five-foot
till to take first prize.
Tic II blow it. said a golling
friend to Bayer.
Not a chance he 11 make it.
said Bayer gloomily.
Snead stroked and missed and
the tournament went into an ex
tra-hole playoff. "I'll get him
now." said Bayer.
And he did. Throwing all his
power into the tee shot, the San
Gabriel. Calif., giant almost drove
the length of the 374-yard par four
extra hole, but the ball landed in
a Iran in front of the green.
Sncad's drive was 40 to 50 yards
shorter.
Muscular Bayer blasted out
within 10 feet of the cup and
putted cautiously for his par four,
Snead pitched 45 feet short of the
cup and then three putted alter
going seven feet past the pin in
a bold try. .. .
Thus Bayer, known more as a
hitter than a winner won his see
ond big prize since lurning pro
five years ago and collected the
biccest purse of his career.
"I don't want to be just a long
hitter I want to be a champion
Bayer said. "I havo been working
hard trying to refine my all
around game."
earn that would be a big drawing
ard in a bowl game. It olavs New
Mexico (no problem) this week
:ind tough Colorado next week.
Louisiana itate, which had a 7-
queaker over Mississippi State
Saturday night, need only defeat
iuione mis wcck to win tne south
western Conference chamninnshin.
That one, although not by edict,
takes in the Sugar Bowl, too.
Norm Carolina still is the ton
choice as the second Sugar Bowj
leain aespite Its 34-24 loss to
Notre Dame Saturday. The defeat
snapped a 6-game Tar Heel win
streak.
With Pitt's 14-6 loss to Nebraska.
Syracuse appears to be about the
top eligible in the East and that
could earn the Orange the Sugar
bowi did. Syracuse has lost only
once and winds up operations
against West Virginia Saturday.
Mississippi, twice-beaten also is a
strong possibility.
lexas Christian is the Cotton
Bowl choice as the host team at
the moment because it is leadin
the Southwest Conference, a pre
carious spot for any team in this
topsy-turvy ioop. A victory over
Rice, which has had its ups and
downs, Saturday and TCU should
be in.
Vandcrbilt, beaten once and in
volved in three ties, is another
itching bowl candidate and could
wind up in the Gator against Flor
ida. This would be a rematch. The
two played a 6-8 tie during the
season.
Three conference champions
were crowned Saturday. West Vir
ginia became the Southern Confer
ence kingpin by crushing William

the Atlantic Coast Conference by
whipping North Carolina, 13-6, and '

Rutgers, with ace Billy Austin
on the sidelines with an injury,
lost to the Quantico Marines, 13-
