Bruising Struggle
Slated For Jackson

| JACKSON (UPI)- The sound
of popping leather is likely to
echo through Jackson Saturday
might when Mississippi State
and Louisiana State square off
at Memorial Stadium.
Both teams base their attacks
on old-fashioned power plays,
and a bruising battle is antici-
pated.
Mississippi States Bulldogs,
enjoying their finest season in
years, are three-point favorites.
They will be returning to the
scene of their upset of previous
ly-unbeaten Auburn a week ago
and a capacity crowd Of $4,000
is expected.
Florida coach Ray Graves,
whose team was the only COM
mon foe of Mississippi State
and LSU, predicts a shortage Of
frillS Saturday night. Graves
points out that both teams "pre-
fer to run the ball down your
throat rather than riSking any
thing fancy"
LSU leads the Southeastern
Conference in rushing with an
average Of 1892 ground yards
per game, and Mississippi State
is second with a per-game aver
age of 1922.
The Bulldog ground attack is
centered around rugged sophie
more fullback Hoyle Granger
and halfback Ode Burrell.
Halfbacks Danny Leblanc and
Joe Labruzzo and fullback Don
Schwab are chief LSU running
threats.
If either team varies its at
tack, it will probably be MisSis-
sippi State. LSU's injury-ridden
Tigers practically abandoned
the forward pass when quarter
back Pat Screen was sidelined
for the season with an injury.
Mississippi State scored its
touchdown against Auburn on a
pass from Sonny Fisher to Bur-
rel.

The champion Green Bay
Packers and Chicago Bears
square off Sunday in a show
down that has generated more
interest than any regular-season
clash during the modern era of
the National Football League.
Green Bay is a four-point
pick to beat the Bears at Chi
cago and break the first-place
deadlock in the Western Divi-
sion. Both teams have 81 rec
ords, the Packers having won
eight straight games since los
ing the season opener to the
Bears, 1913, in Green Bay.
A sellout crowd of nearly So
600 will jam Wrigley Field;
tickets are being scalped for
as high as $50 apiece; security
guards have been posted to
keep practice sessions secret,
and the CHS television network
for this game has been expand
ed to 116 stations.
Owner-Coach George Halas,
who has experienced remark
able success in converting his
Bears to a ball-control and de-
fensive team this season,
fretfully commented that "any-
way you look at it, the Packers
have the edge"
Commented Coach Vince
lombard of the Packers; cts
true the Bears haven't scored
too much this year. But one
thing they've done is control
that ball. Frankly, we have to
break up that control if we're
going to win Sunday"

Top Ten Teams
Expected To Roll
BY United Press international

BY United PreSS international
While most of college foot
balls top ten are expected to
have it relatively easy this
weekend, Pitt, Oklahoma, Hi
noiS and Alabama are doing
some worrying.
The PantherS meet Army;
Oklahoma plays Missouri; Hi
noiS meets Wisconsin; and Ala
bama plays Georgia Tech. All
four games could have a defin-
lite bearing on the bowl picture.
Fifth-ranked Pitt is conSid-
cred a strong bowl possibility
with a 6-1 record but the 18th
ranked Cadets also have bowl
aspirations and could earn a
bid by winning this one and the
finale against Navy in two
weeks.
Sixth-ranked Oklahoma is
trailing Big Eight leader Ne
braska by a half-game and can
not afford a loss to Dan
Devine's Tigers, who have lost
only one conference battle. An
Orange Bowl trip could hinge
on this one.
Illinois, number eight, still
has Rose Bowl hopes despite
last Weekend's 14-7 loss to Mich
igan but a loss to Wisconsin
could ruin their chances.
Alabama, ranked seventh,
needs a win badly to stay
in the race for Southeastern
conference honors. The Tide is
ST. in conference play behind
unbeaten Mississippi.
T~op-ranked Texas pits its per-
feet record against troublesome
Texas Christian, with the Long
horns favored by 121z points.
Second-ranked Navy also is a
two touchdown favorite over
Duke, and third-ranked Missis-
sippi is a 15k point favor
lite over Tennessee.
Fourth-ranked Michigan State
is a 1872 point choice over No
ire Dame, which was soundly
beaten in its last two games by
Pitt and Navy.
Tenth-ranked Auburn, also
fighting for the Southeastern
Conference lead, is favored by
six points over Georgia.
The big football weekend &C
tually begins tonight with
games between Oregon State
and Southern California and
Xavier-D Detroit.
The Oregon State-Southern
Cal clash finds a pair of teams
with 5-3 records matched in the
renewal of a rivalry which has
been dormant fof the last three
years.

ATHENS, Ga. CUPID - The
Southland's two most prolific
yardage gamers, Auburn's
Jimmy Side and Georgia's
Larry Rakestraw, stage their
l~ong-awaited face-to face con-
test here Saturday before an
expected homecoming crowd of
more than $4,000.
Sidle, a 100 = pound junior
quarterback from Birmingham,
is first in the South and fourth
in the nation in total offense
with 1888 yards in seven
games - an average of 1911.
He is second in the nation in
rushing with 743 yards.
RakeStraw, a 195-pound senior
quarterback from Atlanta, is
fifth nationally with 1903 yards
and leads the Southeastern Con-
ference in passing with 1,136
yards, including the national
record 4O7 he gained passing
against Miami.
Although only 30 yards be-
hind Side in total offenSe,
Rakestraw has played one more
game and thus averages only
1854 yards per game. But the
Bulldog throwing ace is far
ahead of all other current SEC
players in career yardage with
$3.50 yards.
The 10th : ranked Auburn
Tigers are favored over the
Bulldogs, who have lost their
first two outings after their
fastest start since 1859. But
Georgia was a similar under
dog last year before upsetting
Auburn 21-14 on three touch
down passes from RakeStraw
to halfback Don Porterfield.

2 Ex-Manugers
OF Brown Team
Die This Week
BY United Press International

The baseball world today
mourned the deaths of two for
mer managers of the old st.
Louis Browns, Oscar little Gil
anti Melillo and Herold Mud
dy) Ruel.
Melillo, 81, a record setting
second baseman during h / S
playing days, died in his Chi
cago home Thursday. Ruel, 81,
a batterymate Of the late Walt
man johnson, died Wednesday
night in his Palo Alto,
Calf, home.
Both were small men in size,
but great defensive ball play
erS.
Melillo managed the Browns
in 1888. Ruel managed the last
place Browns in 1947, shortly
before they moved to Baltimore
and took on a new name.
Both had been ailing for some
time, and both succumbed to
heart attacks.
Ruel was hospitalized early
last year with a severe heart
attack, but recovered.
The funeral for Melillo will be
Saturday morning. Services
were pending for Ruel.
Melillo had his greatest year
in 1880 when he handled
971 chances at second base,
only II fewer than the record.
His .991 fielding mark in 1888
stood for a decade as a record.
Malillo broke into the major
in 1926 and played with the
Browns until he was traded to
the Boston Red Sox in 1885. He
retired in 1888, went to the
Browns briefly, and then to
Cleveland in 1899 as coach.
He stayed loyal to manager
player rebellion and later the
hoy manager Lou Boudreau,
kept him on. H e became a
Cleveland scout in 1915 and
managed the Indians Dayton,
Ohio, club before retiring in
1949.
Ruel played 10 seasons in the
American League, eight with
Washington during which time
he was Johnson'S NNo. l receiv-
er. Like Mellillo, Ruel was a
defensive standout, participant
ing in "a double plays in 1924.
His lifetime batting average
was .275.
Ruel was with the Chicago
White Sox from 1894 to
1914, and he coached at Cleve-
land from 1913 to 1850. He be-
came Detroit farm director in
1852 and Tiger general manag-
er in 1854, and assistant to club
President Walter o. (Spike)
Briggs until 1857.
Ruel was a graduate of the
Washington University Law
School.
