October's final football week
end brings the country's three
top ranked powers to what
could be their toughest prob
lens Of the season. No. /
ranked Texas goes against Rice
in a night game at Austin: Sec
ond-ranked Wisconsin finds It
self facing Ohio State at Madi-
son, Wise, and in the East's
big game third-ranked Pitt
takes on No. 10 Navy at An
napoAs.
The Longhorns. 500, have
no illusions about the Owls.
Last year Rice, underdog as It
viii be today, spoiled a perfect
season for Darrell Royals boys
by holding the Steers to a
14-14 tie.
The Badgers, 400, fear the
Buckeyes may be on the re-
bound after last weeks thump-
ing by Southern California,
The Buckeyes, unranked this
season, can be rough when riled
up and Wisconsin is apprehen-
sive, at least.
Navy Host to Pitt
Pitt. also 400, takes on the
e-whipped Middies, Al. in
a battle that will match two of
the Nations top headline grab
bers in Paul Martha of Pitt
and Roger Staubach Of Navy.
Illinois. No. 4, set a bang
and-bruise tempo for the week
end by having to come from
behind to beat UCLA 1912 in
an intersectional game last
night at Los Angeles. Rich
mond and Virginia Military
battled to a TT tie in South
ern Conference game at Rich
mond.
Behind, 100, at the half
underdog UCLA stunned the
1llini with two third-period
touchdowns by Byron Nelson TO
go ahead, 1910. The Big Ten
team pulled it out in the last
quarter on a 62-yard march

Grabowski diving over from

a pass from Fred Custardo for
a two-point conversion to wind
UP the scoring.
Price Runs 81 Yards
Illinois first-half points came
on a 21-yard run by Sam Price
and Jim Plankenhorns 25-yard
field goal. Nelson's touch
downs came on a 24-yard run
with an intercepted pas and
on a 7-yard aerial from Larry
Zeno.
Outgained on the ground and
in the air, VMI was lucky to
escape with a tie. Richmond
drove to the VMI 8 in the last
30 seconds, but Danny Phlegar
averted defeat by intercepting
a third-down pass by Ronnie
Smith in the end zone.
Andy fuckers 51-yard punt
return set up WINS touchdown
in the third period. Richmond
tied it early in the last quarter
on Smiths pass to Pete En-

OAKLAND RAIDERS DISCARD
"DOORMAT" ROLE IN AFL

Oakland, Calf. (ANP) - In two
successive weeks the Oakland
Raiders have knocked off the one
two picks to take the Eastern
Division lead of the American
Football league. Two weeks ago
they conquered the Houston Oilers,
24-13, and last week downed the
Buffalo Bills, 35-17.
Raiders head coach and General
Manager Al Davis has a spirited,
new" team in the bay land. The
Raiders give evidence that they'll
be tough all the way in the Amer
ican Football League race.
Riding on the passing arms Of
Cotton Davidson and Tom Flores
and the catching of tan stars Art
Powell and Bo Robertson, the
speedster from Cornell, the Raid
ers have served notice to the league
that they are no longer the door
mat Of the league anymore.
Until this year the Raiders had
won only three games out Of %.
They have won IT since the league
began in 1860. This year they are
already five out of seven.

Luke Owens, a proven tackle In

in the utility role.
Don Perkins and Amos Marsh
(spelled by Amos BuIlOcIIs) give
the Cowboys a strong running
pair, and Frank Clarke came
into his own as a pass receiver
last year and probably will be
one of the most heraIded flank
ers. The secondary will include
Don Bishop and Cornell Green.
The Steelers also have a potent
one-two punch at fullbacE: John
Henry Johnson and Bob Ferguson.
Ferguson is out to prove that last
year was one Of those things - he
saw little action after an injury
idelined him in early season. John
Womack hopes to improve over a
promising rookie season.
In Tim Brown, the Eagles have
one of the most exciting runners in
the game. He Is much more Of
threat with the use of the option

surprise last year; Tho Chicago
Cardinals, a disappointment; the
Dallas Cowboys, who may be a
darEhOrse; Tho Pittsburgh Steel
ers, o latent threat, and the Phil
adeIphla Eagles, who might sur
prise. Any Of them could give
the Giants and /Or the Browns q
run for the money.
Three tan players figure prom
inently in the Giants plans: RooSe-
welt Brown, the veteran offensive
tackle (some say he's without a
peer in downfield blocldng); Erich
Barnes, one Of the two or three
premier secondary defensive men
in the league, and Jim Pace, who
may give the team the wide-open
threat 1t has lacked for several
years. The team will miss Johnny
Counts, whom it had counted on as
kickoff and punt return special
ist and perhaps some service as a
flanker Counts has been called UP
for duty as a naval reserve.
Jim Brown will be striving to
regain his title as rushing champ
ion this year for the Browns. Little
need to be said about this great
fulIback except that he might
be more of a threat with the
Browns using the fullback-option
pass. Ernie Green and Charlie
Scales, both veterans, are in
three-way battle for the second
running back in the Browns sys-
tenn.
Others returning to the wars
for the Browns include Jim
I Shorter in the defensive secOn-
dairy; John Brown, an offensive
tackle; John WOOten, offensive
guard who might be shifted to
offensive tackle, and Sam It'd
more, a talented Ilnebacker.
The Redskins hope that they can
get some effective running to COM
plement the pass-catching and
running of Bobby Mitchell. This
should be another big year for
Mitchell, one Of the leading pass
catchers in the league last season.
The runner might be found in
Leroy Jackson, the Southern HIN
ois boy who came to the Redskins
in the Mitchell Ernie Davis trade
with the Cleveland Browns. John
Nisby ranks among the front run
ners as an offensive guard. John
Sample, the veteran acquired from
the Steelers, and Lonnie Sanders,

The
BELL
By Jesse Bell

After the Chicago Bears one
sided 2S-7 victory over the Vikings,
the Bears have to be considered
a real threat in the Western Divis-
ion of the MEL
The Bears have a good bail club
but do lack a few essentials for a
championship team. They do need
a stronger running game. They
are a top defensive unit and in
Bdll Wade they have one OF the
top quarterbaclos in the game.
With a few breaks they could de-
throne the champion Green Bay
Packers.
The Vikings should bow their
heads somewhat, maybe 1t was be-
cause of opening day jitters but
the home club made too many mis-
takes. In the pay for play" ranks
you cannot make mistakes and
win. Every time the Vikings gave
the ball up on a tumble or inter
ception the Bears took advantage
and scored.
The final score however was not
indicative of the all around play
of the Vikings. Tommy Mason had
great day running, Fran Tarken-
ton displayed good judgment in his
play calling. Rookie Ron Wander
KeIlen sparked last minute drive
that carried 70 yards and failed.
Paul Flatley and Ray Poage can
develop into fine ball players. In
all it was a frustrating day for
the Vikings and a game they
should we'll forget.
The Vikings have proved they
can play with the best-they have
one poor game out Of their sys-
tem-the future is brighter.
The city of New Orleans scored
major breakthrough in race re-
lations earlier this month. It was
when Negro and white players
competed on the same gTddiron and
fans of both races shared desegre-
gated seating facilities.
The Dallas Cowboys battIed
the Detroit Lions and the Bal
timOre Colts played the Chicago
Bears before a near capacity
crowd in the first mixed game"
in the Sugar Bowl in several
years.
New Orleans Is one of the few
die-hard, deep South cities TO pass
laws banning race mixing in sports.
However the promoters Of the pro-
fessional games in the Sugar Bowl
ignored the racial bar. Pressure
from civil rights groups also help
ed to ignore the Jim Crow pattern
in patron seating.
Several years ago the Universi-
ty of Pittsburgh was invited to
play in the Sugar Bowl. Pitt at
the time had fine Negro fullback
Bobby Grier. Segregationists kick
ed up such storm that future in
teT'acial college contests in the
Bowl were thereafter avoided.
Dick Hackenberg, sports writer
of the Chicago Sun-Times wrote {:
I'm a city rich in American his
tory, but STEPPED for centuries in
a racial caste system, the walls Of
segregation, through sports, came
tumbling down."
We salute the forward thinking
people of the backward state Of
louisiana!
