Longest AFL

mention of his Oakland teams
four-game winning streak and
talk Of its title chances in the
American Football League. but
admits these kids are unbe-
lievable.
Oakland. winner Of just three
games out of % in 1961-62,
clipped a half-game off San
Diego's Western Division lead
by Smacking the skidding Kan
sas City Chiefs, 22-7, last night.
Tom Flores fired two touch
down passes to End Art Powell,
and Hanback, Glen Daniels
ripped the Chiefs for 1872 yards

Powell was fantastic and so
was Daniels" Davis said. "Our
ability to control the ball sur
prlsed me"
Longest Streak
The Raider coach wouldn't
discuss his clubs four-game
streak, longest in the AFL this
season. Oakland is Ga. San
Diego is 60 going into it's game
tomorrow at Boston, the East
ern co-leader at 5-4.
Davis said he thinks San
Diego has the title clinched, but
newsmen took this as a tongue
in-cheek statement.
Oakland has a week off be-
fore playing at Denver Novem-
Der "a and Davis admitted he
has mixed emotions about the
week off.
We've played Is straight
weeks and can use the rest" he
said. But I'm agraid we might
lose our momentum"
Davis said Oakland's defense
was aimed at stopping Len
Dawson, Kansas City quarter
back, because "he's the key to
their team"
Dawson Dumped
Dawson hit only six of Is
passes for 40 yards and was
dumped six times for losses to-
falling II yards. The Chiefs
played almost all the way with
out their talented split end,
Chris Burford, who is injured
1t was the fifth straight de-
feat for Kansas City, now 2-6-1.
A crowd of 24,897 watched
the Chiefs go without a first
down until II seconds remained
in the first half. During a 19-
point Oakland second period
Kansas City'S Jerrel Wilson hit
the goal upright with a punt
and was tackled in the end
zone for a safety when he took
the ball.
