One of the headline clashes sends the Green Bay Packers to Cleveland for a showdown with the Browns in a game expected to attract 70,000 spectators. The other pits the New York Giants against the surprising Cowboys in tne Lotton Bowl at Dallas.

All four clubs have 3-1 records. San Francisco's explosive 49ers can set what the NFL would regard as a "modern era" record by whitewashing the Minnesota Vikings in Minneapolis. If the 49ers succeed in holding the Vikings scoreless, they will become the first NFL team since 1D34 to register as many as three successive shutout victories. San Francisco is 3-1 and Minnesota 1-3. Other games find the Baltimore Colts (2-2) invading Chicago for a scrap with the rather unpredictable Bears (2-2), the champion Philadelphia Eagles.

In the third period, Freshman tailback Tommy Brown completed a 20-yard pass to Lee Kanipe to set up Lenoir Rhyne's second touchdown, then hit Kanipe with a 9-yarder in the end zone. He passed to Ronny Frye for two extra points. Lenoir Rhyne's fourth period ex plosion came this way: Brown hit end Jerry Frye on a 14-yard pass to the Guilford 29, then a 15-yard penalty against the Quakers put it on the, 12.

From there fullback Richard Kemp passed to end Benny Kennerly for the touchdown. A pass for the conversion attempt failed. On the kickoff, Kemp's boot carried into the end zone. Guilford fumbled on the first play after the touchback and Eddie Haupt recovered for Lenoir Rhyne on the Quaker 12. Three plays later, Kemp plunged over for the touchdown.

Brown passed to Frye for two points. The Bears' final score came after Joe Rhyne returned a punt 50 yards to the Guilford 13. Brown went over guard to the 10 and Dick Angle scored from there. The attempted pass conversion failed. AFL Leaders Meet First Time Today By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS The first meeting of the season between the leaders of the American Football League headlines the Sunday schedule of three games.

San Diego, unbeaten front-runner of the Western Division, makes its third straight trip into the East to tackle New York, the Eastern Division leader. Fireworks should erupt and touchdowns should flow like water because this game will match the top passers of the league a cou ple of guys who have thrown for more than 1,600 yards and 16 scores. It will be Jack Kemp of San Diego, who leads the circuit in passing, against Al Dorow, the thread-needle Ginger of New York who ranks No. 2. Dallas makes its first trip to the East to play Buffalo and the Texans will be most interested on lookers while trying to take care of their own interests in the fight with the Bills.

San Diego needs to lose Lr Dal las to draw virtually even at the1 I ell. In the second period on the 1. i Fullback Buddy Hamic took it ever. The other second period Tiger touchdown drive started on the LSU 43. Gains through the line by Stovall and Gros helped push the ball to South Carolina's 31.

The Tigers of the Southeastern Conference notched their fifth touchdown in the final period after an interception by Harris. The score came on a 3-yard plunge by Campbell. Stovall intercepted another Cos- ten pass and scored several plays later from the 12.

SCATS Blank Mississippi Team, 27-0 MERIDAN, MISS. S. C. Area Trade School's SCATS swept to a 27 to 0 victory over Harris Jr. College Friday night behind an overpowering offensive effort and gained their third triumph of the season against one loss in what was the second time in history SCATS had played in Mississippi.

The SCATS tallied for four touch-downs and made three successful PAT's but under rules affecting Harris College's games, the extra points did not count in the final score. With halfback Willie Cameron and quarterback Nathaniel Perkins moving the ball through the air and on the ground with equal ease, the SCATS had little trouble in overwhelming the Mississippi team. Trade jumped to a one touchdown lead in the middle of the first quarter when Cameron took a handoff from Perkins and carried five yards to paydirt. Perkins sneaked for the no-good point after. Early in the second period, Perkins tossed a 30-yarder to fullback Marvin Capers in the end zone.

Cameron carried on a right end sweep for the extra point. With quarterback Furman Hill taking the reins from Perkins in the fourth quarter, Trade hammered away at Harris' defense for a 60-yard drive to set the play for Cameron's second six-pointer. The handoff from Hill to Cameron for the score was from the five-yard line. In the final minutes of the game, Perkins passed again, this time a 45-yarder which was caught by end Allen Mitchell to end the scoring and the game. Capers barged over right tackle after Cameron's second TD for the third PAT which did not count.
