Army And Navy Clash Saturday In Top Feature By FRED DOWN UP! Sports Writer Army and Navy will meet next Saturday in the annual interservice classic which they regard as the beginning and the end of their seasons, but for the third time in seven years the game will be “bigger than both of ’em” as far as the rest of the country is concerned. Because behind the pageantry and the traditional pomp will be the possibility that this year’s Army-Navy game will create a head-on meeting in the Cotton Bowl between the nation’s first and second-ranked college football teams. Texas, rated No. 1 by the UPI board b£ coaches, has already earned a Cotton Bowl berth on the strength of its perfect season and Southwest Conference championship. And now it’s up to Jolly Roger Staubach and his Navy cohorts to beat Army and win the secondranked Middies an invitation to , oppose the Longhorns on New Year’s Day. Bowl Lineups The other big New Year’s Day berths were resolved Saturday as follows: —Washington defeated Washington State, 16-0, and was selected by the Big Six to face Big Ten champion Illinois in the Rose Bowl. —Mississippi and Alabama were matched in the Sugar Bowl despite disappointing windups of their campaigns. —Auburn beat Alabama, 10-8, and won the right to oppose Nebraska in the Orange Bowl. Fullback Junior Coffey scored two touchdowns on short plunges to lead Washington to its victory while Auburn tallied its points on a 32-yard field goal by Woody Woodall and Mailon Kent’s eight-yard scoring pass. Mississippi State scored a moral victory when it battled Mississippi to a 10-10 tie but Ole Miss’ disappointment was eased immediately after the game when it was invited to New Orleans, La., to play Alabama. * - Anothei Bowl Settled Still another bowl berth was resolved when Baylor defeated Rice, 21-12, and accepted a bid to the Dec. 21 Bluebonnet Bowl game in Houston, Tex. Don Trull scored three touchdowns and completed 18 of 33 passes to set new season records of 160 completions and 2,047 yards gained. Randy Egloff scored on runs of five and two yards to lead Yale to a 20-6 victory over Harvard in the big eastern traditional battle.

Boston Ties ■. ‘ \ Houston For Lead In AFL By GARY KALE UPI Sports Writer Babe Parilli survived a case of “rabbit ears” and now can relax from hometown Boston jeers while he tries to steer the Patriots to an Eastern Division title in the American Football League. Parilli, beset by Beantown taunts of “take him out,” quarterbacked two touchdown drives in the second half against Buffalo Sunday for a 17-7 victory and a first place tie with Houston. San Diego helped set up the deadlock by clobbering Houston, 27-0, while New York edged into the tight, Eastern .picture by disposing of Dansas City, 17-0, to move within a half-game of the lead. Boston plays its “crucial” game against the Oilers in Houston next Sunday and closes out the season at Kansas City on Saturday, Dec. 14. So any future booing of Parilli by the Boston fans will have to be directed at their home television screens. Parilli connected on a 44-yard scoring pass to halfback Larry Garron to tie Buffalo at 7-7 in the third period and then put the Patriots ahead by scoring on a twd-yard keeper play. Gino Cappeletti added an insurance field goal from the 43-yard line in the fourth quarter. Cookie Gilchrist climaxed an 80-yard Bill drive in the second period when he bucked over from the one for Buffalo’s lone -touchdown. Keith Lincoln and Paul Lowe generated a San Diego attack against Houston that gave the Chargers a two-game lead in the Western Division. Lincoln, who gained 102 yards, penetrated the Oiler defense for a 15yard touchdown romp in the first period and Lowe went over from the two in the second quarter. * George Blair booted field goals of 42 and 20 yards and Lance Alworth tallied on a 22yard pass from Tobin Rote to close out the San Diego scoring. New York shut out an opponent for the first time in four years of AFL play and the Chiefs, under Dallas and Kansas City franchises, suffered their first whitewash in 54 league games that included the 1962 championship playoffs, Defensive back Bill Baird set up the first Jet TD by returning a missed Kansas City field goal try 60 yards. Dick Wood followed with a 20-yard scoring pass to Don Maynard.

However, the pro shop will be open until Dec. 24. Majorki will be at the shop Saturday and Sunday afternoons or may.be contacted at phone 3-2424.

Jimmy Brown Sets New NFL Season Record By NORMAN MILLER UPI Sports Writer Jimmy Brown rode to glory by land and Y.A. Tittle through the air, but rookie Ron Vanderkelen scrambled his way to fame, just like he did in the last Rose Bowl game. All in all, It was a hectic National Football League Sunday that produced two records, two tie games and the further tightening of both conference races. Brown gained 179 rushing yards in the Cleveland Browns* 24-10 victory over the St Louis Cardinals and set a new NFL single-season record of 1,677. He broke his own mark of 1,527 gained in 1958. Tittle’s winning 17-yard touchdown pass to Del Shofner in the New York Giants’ 34-27 triumph over the Dallas Cowboys gave him a career record of 197 TD tosses, one more than the old mark set by Bobby Layne. The Cleveland and New York wins kept them tied atop the Eastern standings with 9-3 records while St. Louis dropped back to third with 8-4. ..... ! VanderKelen Shines Os less permanent significance, but just as heroic among the day’s achievements, was the emergency performance of VanderKelen in the Minnesota Vikings’ 17-17 tie with the favo red Chicago Bears. In Sunday’s other games, the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Philadelphia Eagles battled to a 20-20 tie; the Baltimore Colts trounced the Washington Redskins, 36-20; and the Los Angeles Rams defeated the San Francisco Forty Niners, 21-17. The Bears, with a record of nine victories, one defeat and two ties, compared to the Green Bay Packers’ nine victories, two losses and one tie, now cannot afford another defeat. •VanderKelen got his chance to play against the Beats when Fran Tarkenton was injured early in the game. The former Wisconsin star set up Minnesota’s first touchdown with a 30yard pass to Gordon Smith. VanderKelen then completed a 53-yard pass to Smith for the first touchdown pass of his pro career. - — Bean Battle Back The Bears battled back in the second half, however, to wipe out that 17-3 halftime deficit. Billy Wade went over on a oneyard buck after a Viking punt gave the Bears possession on Minnesota’s 49-yard line and his eight-yard scoring pass to Joe Marconi tied the game with 7:49 remaining. Jimmy Brown broke his rushing record with a 61-yard bolt in the first period. He scored two touchdowns on short carries to give the Browns a 21-3 halftime lead and they coasted home from there. Frank Ryan parsed 23 yards to Rich Kreitling for Cleveland’s first touchdown. New York, harrassed during the first half by a fierce Dallas defense and the rushing of Don Perkins and Amos Marsh, battled back from a 27-14 halftime deficit to win. Three of Tittle’s passes were intercepted during the first half before he rallied the Giants. Steelers Rally A 24-yard field goal by Lou Michaels with 40 seconds remaining enabled to tie Philadelphia and remain in the running. It was the Steelers’ third deadlock this season, and second against the Eagles. The Steelers trailed 17-3 entering the final quarter but battled back on a pair of touchdown passes from Ed Brown to Gary Ballman. Johnny Unitas, in one of his old-time performances, completed 24 of 37 passes for 355 yards in Baltimore’s win over Washington. He threw for three TD’s and set up another touchdown and two field goals with his passes. The Rams made it five wins in their last seven games when Dick Bass scored two second-; period touchdowns and Art Perkins added another in the win over San Francisco. The win assured Los Angeles of its best record in five seasons. Wrestlers To Meet New Haven Thursday The unbeaten Decatur high school wrestling team will face its stiffest opposition of the young season Thursday night in a match with New Haven.
