College Stars Defeat Browns Friday Night CHICAGO (INSI ' —The old maxim of sending boys on men’s errands-if your boys are like tiny Tad Weed of Ohio State-has an ardent supporter today in veteran pro football coach E. L. Curly Lambeau of the College All Stars. Lambeau, who helped to establish the money for play game with the Green Bay Packers, said Friday night after his College Ail Star team beat the pro champions,

the Cleveland Browns. 30 to 27: 'Sure, 1 had boys. But they played like heroes. Reputations meant nothing to them. Tad Weed put us ahead in the first period with a 2rt yard field goal. y “When we were behind in the third quarter, he tied the spore with a 20 yard kick. Then in the final period, just after we made a touchdown to go ahead. 27 to 20, Tad used his good left foot to arc a 41 yeard.three points between the goal posts to give us three more insurance points. “As it turned ou’. tnat was the play that finished the Browns." Lambeau hastened to point ou' that this was a team of "heroes." There were boys like Ralph Guglielmi of Notre Dame, who proved against the Browns that he is just as cool and sharp against the pros as he was against the capus tough guys. Guglielmi called plays beautifully and once in the second half completed seven straight passes. Halfbacks L. G. Dupre of Baylor, Ron Drxewiecki of .Marquette. Dick Moegle of Rice, and the entire line, featured by Tom Bettis of Purdue, battled hard all the way. Lambeau said: "L think the whole team was magnificent. After all, we set a new series' record for high scor-ing-we came from behind at halftime 20 to 17 deficit and we outscored those guys in the second half to win.” For the record, the Browns, who won the pro title last fall with their great quarterback, Otto Graham, played his final game with a tremendous display of class, are .not the same club without Otto. Graham’s sub, George Ratterman, still acts as though he expects Otto back at any moment to take over things. But Graham has retired-and without him the Browns are not the “champs." Paul Brown, Cleveland’s coach said: “We deserved to lose. We were not up for the game. Lambeau really had something in these kids this year.” i Statistics support the Cleveland coaeh. The All Stars had first downs on the pros. 20 to 15. They out gained them In rustring, 200 ya<J§ to 153. They won the ball gdme because they "refused to be licked,” to quote their happy coach again, Lttmbeau. The All Stars snapped a four game series losing streak by beating the Browns. The series record now stands 13 victories for the pros, seven for the all stars and two ties. A crowd of 75.000 fans saw the game at Chicago’s Soldiers Field.
