The Detroit Lions, after winning the Western title the last three years, were all but eliminated from contention by dropping a 17-10 decision to the Los Angeles Rams, for their third defeat without a victory.

Halfback Willard Sherman of the Rams intercepted three Lions' passes, and that hurt Detroit. Quarterback Norm Van Brocklin set up the first Ram touchdown with a 55-yard pass to Elroy (Crazy Legs) Hirsch. then flipped 12 yards to Bob Boyd for the second touchdown.

Doak Walker did all the Lions scoring, taking a pass from Hunchy Hoernsch-meyer and kicking a field goal. The Steelers had to come from behind in the final period with two 5 1 -yard scoring passes by Jimmy Finks to Lynn Chandnois and Elbie Nickel to whip the Giants.

(AP) Duke Snider, whose home runs helped the Brooklyn Dodgers win their first World Series, arrived home by automobile yesterday for a special homecoming. Snider got his first Jook at his new son, Kurt, who was born three weeks ago. On hand to greet the Dodger sludger were his wife, Beverly, and his other two children. Kevin, 6, and Pamela, 4. Kurt was born here while the Dodgers were in their last week of the regular league play, but the Series delayed the Duke's chance to meet his new son.

Asked what his current plans are. Snider said, "After a long auto trip from coast to coast, I think I'll just sleep for a week." dash just before scoring the middle TD on an end sweep. "I could tell by the way Lup pi no acted he wasn't going to make it." Woodson said. "He didn't think it would be important. I should have had Skip Corley kick the extra point.

But I didn't want to send in a man to tell them to do it that way. I hoped they would figure it out themselves. I was afraid of the penalty for delaying the game." The way it worked out. Arizona was lucky to get the tie. West Texas had one touchdown called back on a penalty, a pass play which cought freshman quarterback Ralph Hunsaker napping.

Commenting on that play. Wood son was happy. "They came right back with that pass and Hunsaker busted it up." he said. "The good thing about that boy is you don't have to take him out and tell him what he did wrong. He's smart.

He figures things out for himself."

The Giants Chuck Conerly threw two scoring passes. All three Chicago touchdowns and one field goal came as a result of Redskins mistakes, the direct results of the fiercely charging Card line.

Lamar MoHan was the big man on the Chicago offense, passing for one touchdown, sneaking over for one and handing off to Mai Mammack for the third. Vic Janowicz scored all the 'Skins' points. The Browns, who have been having trouble getting started, also had to conie from behind to lick the Eagles. Behind by three points with a little over four minutes to go. the Browns' Otto Graham and Dante Lavelli took over on their own 13 and in a success of stabbing and passing plays took the ball to the Philadelphia 8 whence Graham tossed a five-yard scoring pass to Lavelli to pull it out.

Inches Short Angeles Rams was held to Detroit Lions as he tried to line of scrimmage yesterday Page 21 Woodson Strength By ARXOTT DUXCAX TUCSOX Warren Woodson will comb wearily through a well known stockpile of Arizona players this week. He'll be looking for reserve strength at guard, where the lack of a two-way player proved costly the 20-20 tie with West Texas Saturday night. One problem doesn't expect to face this week is overconfi- dence as the Wildcats prepare for Texas Western. They took West Texas somewhat lightly, but are sure to have for the Miners after Texas Western held Texas Tech to a 27-27 tie.

Injuries to Ev Nicholson, tackle, with a torn rib cartilage, and Dick Rush, guard, with a had ankle, forced use of subs on the right side of the line. West Texa found the going easy that way and picked on it for yardage at critical spots. Buzz Halverson was a strong blocker, bat proved wanting on defense. He plays with a heavy harness to avoid recurrence of a chronic shoulder dislocation. Allan Polley looked good on defense, but comes out when Arizona gets the ball.

Woodson gives full credit to the Buffs. "They outfought us. he said after the game. "They had hustle and drive on their side. "You can't help but admire their attitude, even though it was a little painful." He felt his team was coasting throughout the first quarter and a good part of the second.

"We didn't wake up until they scored. he said of the Wildcats. That came in the second quarter. The eae with which Arizona' then bounced back for a sustained drive to go ahead by half-time. 7-6.

and then slashed for a aw- touchdown as the second i hri" undoubtedly hurt the Cats. They rolled their sleeves down again. West Texas punched over another TD and Art Luppino of the Cats matched it with a 59-yard twist off tackle. Again the Cats let down. Moments later the Buffs had stormed back to tie it up again.

20-20. About then Arizona realized it was in a football game, but the Buffs were fired up. Neither was able to score again throughout a hard-fought fourth quarter, although each mustered one threat. Woodson felt that failure to score in the first quarter, when Arizona marched down the field and lost the hall on the Buff nine, was a decisive factor. "You can't pass up a scoring opportunity like that with a good ball club," he noted.

And he took the blame for the one missed conversion which meant a tie instead of a victory. Luppino had made one 25-yard IJrvan To Defend toons and it was the second which scored one touchdown and set up another. Ronnie Mills, converted from quarter-hack to fullback, romped 42 yards to position the ball for one and 'l yards to place it close for another. He picked up 72 net yards on four carries. A 54-yard kickoff return by Mark Clapp of the second platoon also helped the Buffs.

Constant smashing at the line bv Bubba Hillman. Joe Walden. who scored twice, Archie Sauter, and Charlie Sanders plus the startling work of the reserves gave the Buffs an edge in rush ing. A 50-yard completion from Skip Corley to Gene Leek gave Arizona a passing margin and just about evened the total yardage. Luppino scored all 20 of Arizona's points, going four yards around end twice in addition to his 59-yarder.

Coach (Bob) Bronzan told me it was by far the best game the Spartans have played, and I can believe it." Defeat, is something new for Devine. who had two unbeaten years in Michigan high school ranks before moving to Michigan State as an assistant. The San Jose loss was his first since coming to ASC. MOST POTENT of Arizona State's weapons was the Dave Graybill to Gene Mitcham pass-in? combination. Gravbill passed to the former North Phoenix High ace for gains of 50, 16, 12.

Knox has verbally Ronnie's coaches throughout the boy's playing career which has included stints at three Southern California high schools and the University of California, plus, this season, at UCLA. Browns Stock Sale Expected CLEVELAND (AP) The Cleveland Plain Dealer said last night that Saul Silberman, board chairman of the Cleveland football Browns, plans to sell his half interest in the club for $375,000. A board meeting is scheduled for today, and the newspaper said Dave Jones, president of the Browns, and his associates are ready to buy Silberman's stock.

Silberman is 'president of Tropical Park race track in Miami, Randall Park track here and the Painesville, Ohio, fairground track. Should he sell his Browns' interest for $375,000, he would make a profit cf about $225,000, the Plain Dealer estimated. The Silberman-Jones group bought the club from Arthur B.
