Chicago Cards Handed Initial Season Defeat t By EARL WRIGHT — United Press Sports Writer The Detroit Lions are trying to become the first National Football League team to leap from last to first and don't bet too much they won’t pull the trick. Detroit, which finished last in the Western Division in 1955, cleared one of its stiffest hurdles Sunday and emerged as the pro circuit’s only perfect record team by whipping the Rams at Los Angeles, 16-7. The victory kept the Lions (5-6) a game ahead of the Chicago Bears (4-1), who overpowered the San Francisco FortyNiners, 38-21. The Eastern race tightened as the New York Giants moved into a first-place tie with the Chicago Cardinals (both 4-1). The Giants defeated the Philadelphia Eagles. 20-3, W’hile the Washington Redskins upset the Cardinals, 17-14. It was the Cardinals’ first loss after sweeping four games. Cleveland Hopes Fade The Pittsburgh arided Cleveland’s keeping the Eastern title Kyradlyng to down the Browns, 24-16. Both the Browns and the Rams, blending Western champions, are i last place with 1-4 records with nly seven games to play. Lenny Moore, Baltimore's can- . idate for rooliie-of-the=yaar hon>rs, made touchdown runs of 72 id 79 yards to lead the Colts to 28-21 triumph over the Green —Packers-m- the other game. The defensive platoons played tai roles to three of the key conests. Bobby Layne scored Detroit’s ouchdown and also booted the exa point and two field goals. But Yale Lar.v. a defensive back, was he lad who frustrated the Rams before 76,758 fans. He set up a ield goal with a 38-yard punt return and one of his three pass ±iterceptions led to the Lion touch own. Casares Scores Four TDs Burly Rick Casares plunged for air Bears touchdowns at Sa Francisco, but it was little Perry eter who keet the Forty-Niner defense in trouble. He proved one *>f the most elusive ball-carriers ever seen in Kezar Stadium and ;et up two Bear touchdowns. The Cardinals took a 14-0 lead it Chicago but the Redskins rallied on Sam Baker’s field goal and Al Dorow's 34-yard scoring pass to Dick Janies. Doros followed with a 40-yard toss to end Steve Vleilinger, for the decisive touchdown. New York’s defense shackled Philadelphia's offense at Yankee Stadium. Charley Conerly threw a 20-yard touchdown pass to Frank Jifford and set up Alex Webster’s scoring plunge and . one of Ben Agajanian’s two field goals. The Browns took a 13-0 lead at Cleveland but Pittsburgh's defensive unit blocked a field goal try and intercepted two passes in the second quarter. Quarterback Ted each Brownie error.

Forty-Niners Owner Blasts Loop's Head SAN FRANCISCO ((IB) — Tony Morabito, co-owner of the San Francisco Forty-Niners, leveled a sharp blast Sunday at National Football League Commissioner Bert Bell for what he called the ■ league’s "very incompeted’’ officiating. Morabito’s volley was fired during a dressing-room discussion of the Forty-Niners’ 38-21 trimming by the Chicago Bears. The loss wiped out for another year the Morabito brothers’ long unsated hopes for a championship team. Morabito said NFL game officials were “no more competent than the commissioner who appoints them — and that is very incompetent.” Bell was raked as a “dictator,” who Morabito said was responsible for “90 per cent” of the poor officiating. Bell, reached at his Philadelphia , home, defended the league’s offi- , ials and said he didn't resent the ; accusations made by Morabito — "in fact 1 Eke him,” Bell- said. “They (the officials) are very competent and they have the j toughest job in the world,” Bell said, “I’ll always stand up for them.” t Approval Is Sugar Bowl KANSAS CITY, Mo. ((IB) — The j Ttional Collegiate Athletic Asso- ' 'iti >n today stamped its approval the Sugar Bowl, with its forced . egrogatkm law, and nine other . bowls, - — £ < Executive Director .Walter Byers J explained earlier that the forced t segregation in Louisiana would have, no bearing on NCAA approval since there was nothing in the NCAA bylaws concerning segregation. The other post-season games approved by the NCAA were Corn Bowl, Cotton Bowl, Gator Bowl, Orange Bow, Prairie View Bowl, Refrigerator Bowl, Rose Bowl, Sun Bowl, and Tangerine Bowl. South African Giant To Make Ring Debut BOSTON ((IB) — Edward Potgeiter, seven foot, two inch heavyweight from South Africa makes his American debut at the Boston Arena on Nov. 8 against Jeff Dyer of Springfield, Mass. Potgeiter, who is undefeated in 10 pro fights, scales around 330 pounds, while Dyer, who stands six-four, weighs about 230. College Football Indiana .19, Northwestern 13. lowa 21, Purdue 20.

on election night, Tuesday, Nov. 6. These are the Decatur Commodores at Hartford, Dunkirk at Berne. Pleasant Mills at Wren, and Hoagland at Adams Central. Only eight high school teams from the county are competing this year, since the Jefferson township high school was closed ist spring. Jefferson students .re attending Geneva and Berne aigh schools. Closing of Jefferson will bring changes in both the county 'and sectional tourneys. The county tourney will be reduced to seven teams, necessitating a change in the tourney schedule. For the sectional, if the two-bracket setup is continued, it probably will mean elimination of the Wednesday afternoon session, with sessions Wednesday and Thursday nights, and Saturday afternoon and night. As a refresher, here are the final team standings at the conclusion of the 19?5-56 season, just prior to last year’s sectional. W L Pct.
