The 35 leading coaches who make up the United Press rating board selected Ohio State, Southern California, Southern Methodist. Michigan, Pittsburgh and Syracuse to complete the top Iff teams in that order. Os this group, Ohio State and Michigan are not due to start their season until next Saturday. Twenty-one of the 35 coaches, whose weekly ratings have become accepted as the most authoritative standings of the nation’s teams, picked coach Bud Wilkinson’s Sooners tops. Five made Michigan State their No. 1 pick, five others voted for thirdranked Georgia Tech; while fourth-ranked TCU, sixth - ranked Southern California, eighth-ranked Michigan and Iflth-ranked Syracuse each was the top choice of one coach. Oklahoma and Michigan State finished 1-2 in last season’s national rankings and justified the honor with victories in the Orange and Rose Bowls, respectively. The Sooners open their season Saturday at home against North Carolina; Michgan State travels to the West Coast to play Stanford. Besides Oklahoma and Michigan State, the teams among last season's final top 10 were Texas Christian, Ohio State and Georiga Tech. -——.- J._ Junior High Game Wednesday Evening The first junior high football game of the season will be played at Worthman field at 7 o’Aock JKgdnesdav nlghtrThe game will give coaches a chance to look for their material under fire in preparation for the junior high game with New Haven at Worthman field 6:30 p.m., October 3.

Pirates Beat Dodgers, Puts Braves On Top By UNITED PRESS Milwaukee Manager Fred Haney, although “tickled to death" to be back in first place again, insisted -tod|y the* only way his Braves can cop the pennant is by “winning al! our games and paying no attention to Brooklyn.” The Dodgers took over the National League lead briefly Monday night —for two hours and 45 minutes to be exact — when they defeated the Pirates 8-3 In the resumption of Sunday’s suspended contest but then dropped a half game behind the idle Braves by bowing to Pittsburgh, 6-5, in the regularly scheduled game. As matters now stand Milwaukee has four games remaining and Brooklyn five, and sfnce both clubs are even in'the all-important “lost column,” a playoff would become necessary if the Braves and Dodgers win all their remaining games. Cincinnati, still nursing a mathematical chance, is a game and a half off the pace with three games remaining. “Naturally, I was tickled to hear that Pittsburgh had knocked oft Brooklyn,” said Haney, who arrived in Cincinnati with his Braves Monday night for a game against the Redlegs today. "We Were just getting, our bags unpacked when we heard the news,” Haney said. “But there was really nothing to celebrate. Os course, it was a good break for us and it makes things look nicer but it still bolls down to the fact that we have to keep winning all our games and ignore what Brooklyn does.” Frank Thomas and Bob Friend were the chief “villains” as far* as the Dodgers were concerned in the setback that really hurt Monday night and gave the Pirates three games out of four in the series. Thomas slammed his 24th homer off reliever Ed Roebuck in the fourth inning to give Pittsburgh a 5-3 lead and then, after the Dodgers had tied the score on Gil Hodges' two-run homer in the' top of the eighth, he singled home Bill Virpon with the winning run in the bottom of the frame for his fourth hit of the game. Frien.4, surviving a rocky 4 gave up three runs in the “first Inning and then held the Dodgers atbay except for Hodges’ 31st homer to post his 17th victory against 16 setbacks. It took the Dodgers less than 15 minutes to wrap up the suspended contest. Clem Labine retired three Pirate batters in order in the ninth to preserve Don Newcombe’s eighth straight victory and 26th win of the season. Labine also started the regularly scheduled game but gave up three runs in the first Inning and was yanked in the second. Roebuck took over and gave way to Craig in the sixth. Baltimore beat the Yankees. 5-4, m Tito Francona’s two-run double n the eighth inning as Johnny Rucks again failed to notch his <»th triumph. Bill Skowron hit a pair of homers for the Yanks.
