Chicago Bears Defeat College All-Stars By Score Of 28-17

CHICAGO UPI — The pros won two ways in the annual battle between the National Football League champions and the best of the 1964 college crop of players. First, the league champion Bears won the game. 28-17, the 20th victory for the pros in the 31-game series. Second, the NFL teams and the American Football League officials who happened to be watching found out they’ll get some fancy rookies when the Stars jom their pro clubs this weekend. Standout of the crop was Arizona State's Charlie Taylor, who'll join the Washington Redskins. Taylor led the Stars in rushing with 36 yards in seven carries. He passed for one of the Stars’ two touchdowns, a 14-yard heave to Ted Davis of Georgia Tech. He caught two passes for 34 yards, one of them covering five yards for the Stars’ second touchdown. He set up his own scoring pass when he recovered a fumble put by the Bear’s Billy Martin on the Bears 16. But there'll be dividends for the others too. George Mira of Miami, who'll join the San Francisco 49-ers, connected on eight of 18 passes for 70 yards. Pete Breathard of Southern California, property of the Kansas City Chiefs, hit on five of seven for 75 yards, but had two passes intercepted. Paul Warfield of Ohio State, earmarked for the Cleveland Browns, rushed for 17 yards on four carries and caught four passes for 56 yards. Numerous bulky linemen stood out. Carl Eller of Minne-

sota, who’ll be with the Vikings. Dick Evey of Tennessee, who’ll join the Bears. Wally Hilgenberg of Iowa, signed with Detroit. Davis, slated for Baltimore. Harrison Rosdahl of Penn State, with Buffalo, and many others. But all of the rookie pros were no match for the experienced Bears, even though the collegians twice held a lead in the first half, at 3-0 and 10-7. The Bears pulled from behind once on a 12 yard touchdown pass from Bill Wade to Mike

Ditka.

Then in the third period Wade connected to Johnny Morris for 38 yards to set up his own one yard scoring plunge and after Richie Petitbon intercepted a Breathard pass, Wade hit Gary Barnes on the first play for a 20 yard touchdown. The fourth score came on Rudy Bukieh’s 30 yard pass to Charlie Bivins.

Thomas Not Complaining About Past Treatment

How sweet it Is. Frank Thomas wasn't complaining about his past treatment nor was he bitter as he explained to reporters how it felt to be traded from the dreary New York Mets to the first place pennant hopeful Philadelphia Phillies. “I’ve been in the National League 14 years and I’ve been in last place for 12 of them.” the father of six revealed at Connie Mack Stadium Friday night after he contributed a single, a double and two runs-batted-in in the Phils’ 9-4 win over the Mets. “Helping the team win at a time when victories are so important for them - I mean, for us, was great,’’ said Thomas, still finding it hard to believe he's been dealt into the center of a pennant race. The addition of a righthand long ball threat, in exchange for three minor leaguers, may very possibly bring a flag to

Philadelphia for the first time since the 1950 Whiz Kids. Rival managers have been savings their southpaws for the Phils, a practice which may be curtailed somewhat now that Philadelphia boasts a first baseman sporting credentials of 275 lifetime home runs and an average pushing .270. The Phillies broke a 4-4 tie in the sixth inning when they tallied four times on a combination of walks, bunts and Texas League singles. The winning rally came at the expense of three Met pitchers, including loser Bill Wakefield. Ed Roebuck, the second of three Philadelphia h u r 1 e r s, gained his fourth triumph to go with two setbacks. Elsewhere in the National League. Cincinnati bested San Francisco 5-3; St. Louis whitewashed Houston 4-0: Los Angeles routed Milwaukee 5-1: and Chicago won two from Pittsburgh 7-3 and 4-3.

CHICAGO UPI — Club owner Dave Trager today sought a replacement for Bob Leonard who resigned as coach of the Baltimore Bullets. Leonard called it quits Friday and Trager, a Chicago in surance executive, said he would begin an immediate search for a new coach. “We're considering about five men Bob suggested for the job,’’ Trager said. He declined to name them. Leonard announced his resignation when the Bullets’ board of directors rejected his demand for a three-year contract. “Bob informed me last week that he wanted a three-year contract,” Trager said. “It came as complete surprise to me.” Trager said he called a hurried meeting of the board because long-term contracts were contrary to the team's policy. “The decision of the board was to stay with our policy and I informed Bob accordingly,” Trager said. Leonard said he was not interested in accepting another post as a professional basketball coach. “I wouldn’t take the job of coaching the Boston Celtics if it were offered to me,”

he said.

Trager said he had offered Leonard a job as assistant to the president but that he turned

it down.

Forty-Niners Open Against Browns SAN FRANCISCO UPI—The San Francisco Forty Niners, trampled to death in the rush | for victories in 1963, open the 1964 exhibition campaign Sunday against the Cleveland Browns in Kezar Stadium. “And we are going to do our best to win this one,” says Coach Jack Christiansen, starting his first full year as the head man. “We need the victory to pick up our morale. It would be a terrific boost.” In case you’ve forgotten, the Forty Niners had a 2-12 campaign in 1963 — and compiled , one of the greatest casualty lists in professional football history. But a crowd of about 25,000 is expected to come out to see how the health of the club in general is the year — and, in particular, to see if quarterback : John Brodie’s arm has completely mended.

Entry blanks may be found in today s Banner and will also be available at both the city pool and Windy Hill Country Club, beginning Tuesday, August 11.

Edith McGuire Uonyv Favorite NEW YORK UPI —Sprinter Edith McGuire of Tennessee State, double sprint winner against Russia two weeks ago, was a heavy favorite today to earn a shot at an Olympic double in the 10O and 200 meters at Tokyo next October. The 20-year-old native of Atlanta was one of four girls with a chance to gain berths in two different events on the U. S. women's track and field team during final trials expected to produce a small but powerful American squad. Miss McGuire, sprinter Debbie Thompson of Frederick, Md.. sprinter - hurdler Rosie Bonds of Riverside, Calif., and sprinter - broad jumper Willye White of Chicago all had a chance for doubles but one will have to settle for less. All four made the 100 meter final and only three can go in any one event. Thirty places in 10 events were available but fewer than 20 may be filled because so many American girls can't pass the rigid Olympic entrance standards, particularly in distance field events.

Raiders To Open Season Sunday OAKLAND, Calif. UPI — The Oakland Raiders, upstarts of the American Football League in 1963. open the 1964 campaign Sunday against a Kansas City Chiefs team that is supposed to be loaded for conquest this year. Coach A1 Davis of the Raiders, 1963 AFL “Coach of the Year,” after a 10-4 season has :tnnounced that he’ll start a vet- | eran team in the opener. “And I’m not suprised that the Chiefs are favored to win this one,” says Davis. “They have a squad that ranks with the best in pro football.” In the Raider backfield will be quarterback Cotton Davidson, halfback Clem Daniels; flankerback Bo Roberson and fullback Glenn Shaw. The receiving ends will be Art Powell and Ken Herock. The only rookie who appears certain of getting a chance to start is Bill Budness, a 210pound, fourth - round draft choice from Boston University. Budness will be the middle linebacker because regular Archie Matsos is out with a muscle injury. The Chiefs, with Hank Stram at the, helm, will start off with Len Lawson as quarterback, and young Eddie Wilson, the former Arizona flash, ready to

step in.

The others in the offensive backfield will include Jerrel Wilson at left half; Jack Spikes at full, and Frank Johnson at
