Oukich Making Bid For Wade's Spot By United Pre uitrrnitkULal Rudy Bukich is making a strong bid to steal Billy Wade's Job as the Chicago Bears' No. J quarter back. ' It was Bukich's two touchdown rington in the fourth period that enabled the Bears to down the Redskins 28-26. The Redskins opened a 21-14 halltime lead with the help of pair of TD tosses by passes tnat carried tne Bears tnlSn(,,,i Ttilt Martin rnri on a 17-7 victory over the New Yorkl77.yard punt return (or the Bears Norman a Giants in their pre-season opener last Saturday.

(UPI)-Calm, self-assured Terry Baker, the most honored college football player in the nation last season, says he has a great feeling of curiosity on how he will react in his first pro football game. And the 22-ycar-old Heisman Trophy winner and All America quarterback from Oregon State probably will get his chance to take his first dip into the pro foot ball caldron Saturday night when the Los Angeles Rams meet the Minnesota Vikings. "I have no idea how tough it Is , going to be until I try it," the articulate rookie quarterback said at the Rams training camp. "But I am very anxious to find out what it s like working with top men and against top men in the pro ranks. Baker, however, was quick to deny that he was worn out and underweight even before making his pro demit. A Little Tired "I was a little tired and under weight after the basketball season ended," Baker agreed. After all, I got a late start on the basket ball team because of the Liberty Bowi game, and then we were lucky enough to get into NCAA playoffs which extended the bas ketball season. "But I've gotten some rest, even though I've been working hard since I came to camp, and I'm close to the weight I carried play- ing football last season, around 190 pounds or so." Coach Harland Svare withheld Baker from the Rams' first ex hibition game a week ago against the Dallas Cowboys because he felt that Roman (Gabriel was handling the team well and Baker had been back with the club less than a week after the All-Star game at Chicago. 'Terry has shown us a lot of poise in the short time he has been with us," Svare commented. "He learns quickly and his pass ing is sharp. We are very pleased with the progress and the ability he has shown." Svare cautiously said he would be governed by the situation in the Minnesota game in determin ing when and how long he will use Baker. Next week Baker is ex pected to start when the Rams meet the Dallas Cowboys m Portland.

PAGE -B HERALD AND NEWS, Klamath Falls. Oregon Friday, August 18, mm Babe Ruth Remembered For Humor, Love Of Kids NEW YORK (UPI I Baseball fans fortunate enough to have seen Babe Ruth in his hey day have memories of the greatest Yankee of them all who died 15 years ago today. They remember the Babe hit ting one of his 714 home runs and running around the bases on legs that seemed too skinny to support his prodigious body. They remember the Babe strik- ing out a sight almost as : breathtaking. They remember the Babe off the field eating, drinking and carousing, sometimes into the early morning and then hitting a home run that same afternoon. j Yet the men who knew him best his teammates remem ber Ruth for different reasons. Their fondest memories of base-; ball's greatest hero concern (A) his sense of humor and (Bi his fondness for kids. Sense Of Humor "The Babe had a great sense of humor," recalled Waite Hoyt, a pitcher on those explosive Yan kee teams of the Ruth era and now a Cincinnati sportscaster. He always got a big kick out of playing practical jokes. Tony Lazzeri was the butt of many Ruth jokes. In those days we'd put on our baseball pants by turning them inside out first, then put an elastic band around the knees and pull them up. One of Babe's favorite gags was to drop a cigaret into Lazzeri's pants just before he pulled them up. "One day Lazzeri got back at him. Babe used to have a big, red handkerchief to mop his face. Just before he ran onto the field one day, Lazzeri set fire to Babe's handkerchief. There was Babe running out to right field and slapping his backside to put out the fire." Earle Combs, who played alongside Ruth in the Yankee out field for 11 years, remembered when the Babe toured with a vaudeville show during the offseason. "He was playing in a show in Kansas City," related Combs, and after the performance lady came rushing up to him and said, 'Babe, you were just won derful. . .you should play in Shakespeare.' Good old Bahe shook his head and said, 'Hell, no, lady, I gotta be in St. Louis tomorrow.' " Combs, an insurance executive in Frankfort, Ky., believes that the modern ballplayer would be wise to emulate Ruth's relation ship with young fans. The Babe loved children, he asserted. "I never saw him re fuse a kid an autograph. He had more patience with young fans than any ball player 1 have seen." Benny Bengough and Joe Du gan. two other former Ruth team mates, echoed Combs' feelings. Dugan added anollier signifi cant thought on the greatest home run slugger of all time. "The Bahe would hit a hundred homers today," the former third baseman insisted. "Never forget that he used a 52-ounce bat and with this golf ball they use today they don't kid me about tlie lively ball Ruth would have hit a hundred a season. DOES IT AGAIN!
