Top Ranking Teams Upset On Saturday By FRED DOWN United Press International Louisiana State’s defeat created a free-for-all for the national college football championship today but at least three conference titles and two major bowl berths may be decided this week. The upsets which claimed six of the nation's top 20 teams Saturday made Syracuse, Texas and Southern California the new “big three” of the college gridiron and tightened up both the Big 10 and Southeastern Conference races. Northwestern, Penn State, Purdue and the Air Force Academy were among powers struck by “upset lightning” in addition to topranked LSU. Predicts Bowl Pairings The football may take some more funny bounces before the season ends but the Jan. 1-2 bowl pairings probably will look something like this: Wisconsin vS. Washington in the Rose, Louisiana State vs. Arkansas in the Sugar, Colorado vs. Mississippi or Clemson in the Orange, Syracuse vs. Texas in the Cotton, and Mississippi or Clemson vs. Penn State or Tennessee jn the Gator. The most attractive — and the most likely —of these pairings should bring Syracuse and Texas together in the Cotton Bowl in a “game of the year ” Syracuse’s 20-18 victory over Penn State put the Orangemen on the high road to a perfect season and the Eastern championship while Texas, 13-12 victory over Baylor Saturday, could clinch the host’s berth next Saturday. A Texas win over Texas Christian and an Arkansas loss to Southern Methodist would turn the trick. Close Battle Wisconsin and Washington also could clinch Rose Bowl berths next Saturday although it’s more likely the fight will go down to the final week end. Wisconsin tied Northwestern for the Big 10 lead by beating the Wildcats, 24-19, Saturday while Washington (5-1) still holds the inside track over Oregon (4-1) after both had «lose calls over the week end. Jjjpbeaten and untied Southern Cat is ineligible for bowl competition. Both Wisconsin and Northwestern play Illinois but the Badgers’ other opponent is Minnesota while the Wildcats’ is much tougher Michigan State. Washington is in much the same position as Wisconsin. Washington and Oregon have a common opponent left— Washington State — but Washington’s other rival (California next Saturday) is a real patsy.

Baylor Sets Record As Lakers Triumph United 1 Press International Elgin Baylor is one player who doesn’t believe in the sophomore jinx. . Rookie, of the year last season, the Mifiaaapolis Lakers’ hotshot ran wiltrMnday night as he: —Set a National Basketball Assocation reford with 64 points as the Lakeri defeated the Boston Celtics, The old mark of 63 was set by Joe Fulks of Philadelphia in 1949. —Enabled the Lakers to gain their first victory over Boston in 23 straight games. —Handed the defending champion Celtics their first defeat in seven games this season. Baylor, a former Seattle University All-American who set a scoring standard for most points in a rookie season, hit with 25 of 47 field goal attempts and was 14 for 19 from the foul line. He scored 25 points in the first half, 39 in the second, grabbed 17 rebounds and had eight assists. The Lakers enjoyed leads of 33 points twice in the fourth quarter before finally easing the pressure. Sam Jones led Boston with 22 points. Bill Russell, who outplayed Wilt Chamberlain in Boston's victory over Philadelphia Saturday night, was held to three points. Chamberlain, however, recovered rapidly as he scored 32 points and nabbed 35 rebounds to give the Warriors a 134-106 verdict over the Cincinnati Royals Sunday Jack Twyman had 21 for Cincinnati. In fife only other gattie played. Syracuse downed the Detroit Pistons. 118-107, Dolph Schayes, hitting 16 of 17 from the foul line, was Nats’ high scorer with 28 points.

San Francisco And New York Top Pro Loop By EARL WRIGHT United Press International Couple Abe Woodson's 105-yard run with clutch field goals by Sam Baker and Pat Summerall and you may wind up with the San Francisco Forty-Niners entertaining the New York Giants in the National Football League championship game. Each of the 12 clubs has five more games and the staggering Baltimore Colts—defending league champions—will certify that anything can happen. But the FortyNiners and Giants (both 6-1) top the division races and boast powerful defenses to smooth their stretch drives. Baker’s 46-yard field goal with only 11 seconds to play enabled the underdog Washington Redskins (3-4) to hand the Colts (4-3) their second straight defeat Sunday, 27-24. The Forty-Niners, with Woodson’s 105-yard kickoff return the key play, took prompt advantage of Washington’s help. They boosted their Western Division lead over the Colts in two games by downing the Rams (2-5) at Los Angeles, 24-16. Field Goals Win Summerall’s field goals of 37, 49 and 20 yards provided all of New York’s points in a 9-3 triumph over the Chicago Cardinals (2-5) and kept the Giants a game ahead of the Cleveland Browns. The Browns (5-2) started the day tied with Philadelphia for second in the East. They knocked the Eagles (4-3) two games off the pace with an easy, 28-7 victory at Cleveland. Bobby Layne’s 20-yard scoring pass to Tom Tracy in the final minutes enabled the Steelers (2-4-1) to tie the Detroit Lions (1-5-1) at Pittsburgh, 10-10. The Bears (3-4) held twice on their one yard line in the second half at Chicago and downed the Green Bay Packers (34) in the other game, 28-17. Off To Good Start San Frtincisco’s Victory, only its second at Los Angeles in 10 tries, gave the team a fast start on its tough, four-game road swing. The Forty-Niners visit the Bears, Colts and Browns before finishing at home against the Colts and Packers- However, the Colts face a hard job catching San Francisco. After a game with the Packers at Milwaukee, the jColts entertain the California clubs before playing them on the West Coast, where they have won only one game. In the East, the Giants have the easiest schedule, playing three home games. After entertaining San Francisco Nov. 29, the Browns visit the Giants.

MASONIC Regular Stated Meeting TUESDAY 7:30 P. M. Ray Eichenauer, WJW. I

Illinois May Hold Key To Big Ten Title CHICAGO (UPI) — Illinois, an unpredictable fourth place team in the Big Ten football race headed by Wisconsin and Northwestern, may hold the key to the conference championship and the Rose Bowl. The Illini. who have won two, lost two and tied one in the league, meet the Badgers at Madison, Wis., Saturday and return home to test Northwestern the following week when the Big Ten season ends. Although they figure to be underdogs in both contests, the Illini have a record of coming up with surprises against traditional foes of such longstanding as Wisconsin and Northwestern. The Badgers, Whose 24-19 victory over Northwestern was their fourth straight since losing the opener to Purdue, may meet an Illini squad in a mood to square matters after Saturday’s 20-19 loss to Michigan. Northwestern, meanwhile, travels to East Lansing next Saturday to meet Michigan State. If the once-beaten Wildcats can get by the Spartans, no small task in itself, they will face an Illini eleven unhampered by championship pressure. The Badgers close the season at Minnesota, the weakest team in the league with only an early victory over Indiana to show for five league tests. lowa handed Minnesota its fourth conference loss, 33-0, Saturday, Michigan State peppered Purdue’s Hopes, 15-0, and Indiana battled Ohio State to a scoreless tie in Saturday’s action among also-rans. If the Badgers and the Wildcats finish in a dead heat, the Wisconsin team would likely get the bid for the Rose Bowl. League officials could base their vote on either of two considerations in case of a tie. They could cast their ballot in favor of the team whose last Rose Bowl trip goes farther back into history, or in favor of the winner of game between the two co-champs. It was believed the unsentimental second consideration would decide the issue and give the bid to the Badgers. In other games Saturday, Miclugan is at Indiana, lowa at Ohio State and Minnesota at Purdue.

(UPI> —The Ryder Cuppers scattered to the four corners of the globe today — already looking ahead to 1961 when the bi-ennial matches return to England for the 14th competition.

Die rest of the American Ryder Cup players return to the pro tour. The Americans clinched the trophy on the first nine holes of the 36-hole singles matches on Saturday. A survey of the records shows that, if the first nine holes could have been eliminated, the British would have won. The Americans got off to a fast start and never let up. The final results in the singles were: Doug Ford, U. S, halved with Norman Drew. Great Britain, each side getting a half point. Mike Souchak, U. S. defeated Ken Bousfield, GB, 3-2. Bob Rosburg, U.
