Missouri Demise Develops Big Scramble
In National Collegiate Football Title Race
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
A mad scramble for the na
tional college football champion
ship suddenly developed today
out of the demise of Missouri,
with more than a half-dozen
teams remaining in the running
for the coveted title.
Last week Missouri had one
foot in the throne room door. The
Tigers had rampaged through
nine opponents and needed only
to get past twice-beaten Kansas
to take the crown.
But Kansas plastered the Ti
gers 23-7. So Mizzou finished with
a 9-1 record. So did Washington.
Iowa showed 8-1 as did Minnesota,
Navy and Auburn. Mississippi,
the only one of the group that
has not been defeated has an
8-0-1 record with one game to go.
So nothing really can be settled
until after the Mississippi-Missis-
sippi State game Saturday. If the
Eebs win, they will have a good

The University of Oregon, which
closed its regular season with a
44-14 tie with Oregon State Satur
day, is in the running for two
bowl games.
One is the Liberty Bowl at
Philadelphia Dec. 17. The other
is the Cotton Bowl at Dallas Jan.
1.
Penn State (6-3) was named
Sunday as the host team for the
Liberty Bowl. Five other teams
were named as possible opponents.
Besides Oregon (7-2-1) they are
Rice (7-2), Baylor (6-3), Texas
(6-3) and Florida (7-2).
Arkansas won the host team nod
for the Cotton Bowl and five
teams were named as possible
opponents Oregon, Florida, Ala
bama (7-1-1) Tennessee (5-2-2)
and Navy (9 0).
Several games coming up will
have a bearing on this. Rice and
Baylor are scheduled to meet this
week. There also will be Florida
vs. Miami of Florida, Texas vs.
Texas A & M and Army vs. Navy.
Oregon and Oregon State bat
tled on even terms on a slippery
field at Corvallis Saturday. As
usual, spirits ran high and the
tackling was fierce as defensive
play set up three of the four touch
downs. Slate managed the first score,
jarring the ball loose from Ore
gon fullback Duane Cargill on the
Oregon 24. In seven plays OSC
drove to a touchdown, which half
back Don Kasso scored on a two
yard plunge. Kasso then started
wide, but cut back over guard
for a two-point conversion that
gave lfis team an 8-0 lead early
in the second quarter.
Center Joe Clescerl started Ore
gon on a comeback at once by
intercepting a Terry Baker pass
on the State 41 and rumbling down
to the State 20. Oregon banged
into the line six times, the final
plunge putting quarterback Dave
Grosz over from the 1. Oregon
also tried for a two-pointer but
Grosz' pass to halfback Cleveland
Jones was too high.
It stayed 8-6 until the fourth
quarter when safety Grimm Ma
ton of OSC intercepted a Grosz
pass on the Oregon 40 and dashed
down to the Oregon 24. Four plays
later the elusive Kasso cut back
over tackle on a seven-yard touch
down run. The kick for the extra
point was wide.
Back came Oregon, this time
on a 57-yard march, climaxed by
a nine-yard scoring pass from
Jones to end Paul Bauge. With
the score 14-12 Oregon called a
double reverse which completely
fooled the Staters, little Jones
scooting into the end zone un
touched for a two-point conver
sion. State had time to develop one
more threat, marching 72 yards
to the Oregon 8. With only 19
feconds remaining Tim Ankerson
was called on for a field goal

PORTLAND (AP) Portland
gained its long-sought tie-up with
a major league baseball team
Sunday, becoming a farm club of
the St. Louis Cardinals.
President Arch Kingsley of the
Portland Beavers said it was a
limited working agreement, but
that Portland was assured of at
least eight players of triple A
class. The Cardinals also will hire
the manager and pay salaries
above $900 a month for the players
they farm out, Kingsley said.
Portland is to train with the
nine other Cardinal farm teams
at Homestead, Fla.
Portland had been unable to
reach a working agreement with
a major league team until it re
cently gave up its damage suit
against the major leagues. In that
suit the Beavers accused the ma
jor leagues of a monopoly and
sought damages because of tele
vision broadcast in this area.
The announcement of the tie-un
came just in advance of the
nual stockholders' meeting, sched
uled tonight.
Also announced was the resigna
tion of Clyde Perkins as execu
tive vice president. Perkins said
he differed in policy matters from
other directors.

There were no goats Saturday
as Washington erased the last
shred of doubt to its right to go
back to the Rose Bowl. There were
no goats as Washington's Husk

No goals: just heroes.
One of the heroes was Don Mc

The three-touchdown underdog
Cougars battle the nation's fifth
ranked team on even terms down
to the final gun, missing a game-
winning field goal try from Ihe
35-yard line in the last 15 seconds.
A goal line stand by each team
that was nigh unbelievable.
Two records set by the shy Cou
gar sophomore end, Hugh Camp
bell. He caught six passes to run
his season total to 66, and nobody
in the history of major college
football has caught so many in a
season. His 81 yards boosted his
season's total to 882, topping the
national record set in 1951 by an
other Stater, Ed Barker.
Mel Melin tried the first of 2
fill ile field goal attempts, this one
from the 12-yard line, and it was
again Washington's turn to threat
en. The Huskies marched 79 yards
2 feet, 5 inches from their own 20.
There was one down left to make
those last seven inches, and quar
