By DICK SLAY

With its ace passer out OF uni
form and at least three-fourths
of the field under water, Con-
zaga stayed strictly on the
ground yesterday to grind out
a 20-6 victory over Montgomery
Blair High as about $50 hardy
fans watched in Blair Stadium.
A bad report card kept Jim
Eppard on the sidelines and may
deny him the privilege of play
ing against rival st. Johns a
week from today. But Blair
didn't notice the absence yester-
day while trying to contain the
Eagles 100 pound fullbacks,
Alan Campbell and Bill Rowan,
and little Bev Powell at wing
back.
Gonzaga moved So and SIS
yards for touchdowns the first
two times it got possession, and
finished the job early in the
third quarter after Tackle Dick
Griffin claimed a Blair tumble
on the Blair 8.
| Powell got loose on a pitchout
around left end for 80 yards to
the Blair 8 to feature the scoring
drive after the opening kickoff
Campbell carried it over the goal
line in two cracks at right tackle,
the last covering 2 yards, and
also rushed for the extra point.
Quarterback Tommy Brown
attempted a screen pass on
fourth down a few minutes
later. but Guard Dick Eppard
tipped it in flight and Tackle
Jim Dollahite grabbed the ball
on the Gonzaga As. A 81 yard
burst by Campbell made it to
the Blair 9 this time and Rowan
scored from the two three plays
later. Campbell again bucked
over the conversion.
Preston Ellis, Blair linebacker
and halfhack, almost ruined
Gonzaga's opportunity shortly
after intermission when he
dumped Tailback Mike Todd for
a three yard loss. But Powell

MELBOURNE, Nov. II (P.-
The United States olympic track

Russians as the greatest evel

his own world mark. In the
1852 Olympics, the 25-year-old
Californian finished second, bare

1877. That was an Olympic
record, and Davis time was the
same as billiards..
officials said that Davis 1873
definitely would be forwarded to
the international federation for
official acceptance as a new world
record. Dick Attlesey Of the Unit

cracked that with his 1874 ear

the 110-meter hurdles, 10 inches
farther than the 120-yard hur-
dies.
Australian fans looked on in
