Rams Tip Baltimore LOS ANGELES UPI - The Los Angeles Rams to the sur prise of almost everyone are involved in a three-way tie for fourth place in the National Football League's Western Con ference. The Rams scraped by the fa vored Baltimore Colts Sunday by one point 17-16 on Danny Villanueva's 13-yard field goal in the third quarter. They now have a 4-7 record the same as Detroit and Minne sota. The game at Memorial Coli seum was played in a rather somber atmosphere because of President Kennedy's assassina tion. The crowd of 48.555 ob served a moment of silent prayer before the game started and entertainment frills were largely omitted. Villanueva's field goal gave the Rams the winning points but chunky left halfback Dick Bass was the guy who made the Rams go. He scampered 51 yards to set up the first Ram TD in the first quarter. Bass compiled a total of 120 yards from scrimmage on 19 carries for a 6.31 average. The Ram defensive unit Rosey Grier, Mike Henry, La mar Lundy and others also played a large part in the win. Henry intercepted a Johnny I'nitas pass on the goal line in the third quarter to break up a Colt TD march.

Notre Dame went out and ground Army into the ground. And, as a guy named Jack Che vigny, later to die with the Ma rines at Iwo Jima, burst into the end zone with the winning score, he looked up into the heavens and yelled: "there's the one for you, Gip per." Corny, maybe. And it is pos sible that the "Rock," a master strategist, also was guilty of a bit of "con." But lie taught them, as Che vigny proved later on the field of battle, the value of the in definable something called "heart." Which makes me feel a slight bit ill when I read some of the things they blamed on the trag ic happenings in the city of Dallas. Such as the story out of Aus tralia when Dennis Ralston was beaten in the South Australian tennis finals. It alibied that a "listless" Ralston bowed because he was "saddened" by the death of our President. He had gone on the court, it related, only after be ing "urged" by U.S. Ambassa dor William Battle. He should have had a Rockne urging him on. Then, like Chevigny, he might have gone out and won one for the man and the legend. Cry in your beer if you want to do so. But always I keep thinking of the Rock and Che vigny and winning one for the "Gipper." Y'ou don't surrender. Y'ou fight all the harder. The more lead in your heart the more lightning in your hand. It's tile way any skipper would want it. I have to hope they play the Army-Navy football game this weekend. Not because it's a spectacle or because 1 hope to see the Cadets spring an upset. But because these kids deserve to play the game they've been looking toward all season. The bruises are there for all of us. But let's wear them on the heart, not on the sleeve.
