Roberts Ramrods Jackets To Win Look For Detroit Lions In Role Of Spoilers TEAM HAS TWO SHOTS AT BRUINS BV THE ASSOCIATED PRES Tlie Detroit Lions, perking too late for a title shot, have re vived just in time to take spoilers' role in the Western Con ference battle in the Nationa Football League.

The Lions, who have ruled th West for three years and dropped only three decisions the Bears in four seasons, hav two shots at the Bruins. The firs comes tomorrow in Detroit and Lion victory could drop Chicag from a first-place tie. SIMILAR SITUATION Oddly enough, the situation similar to the 1950 season, whe the Bears copped two from De troit and wound up in a tie witi the Los Angeles Rams, who woi a playoff for the conference title This time, the Bears again ar tied with the bad to win five after losing the firs three. They gained the tie b. swamping Los Angeles last week end, and now have only a home and-home series with the Lions a cross-town trip to play th Chicago Cardinals and a honi date with Philadelphia remain ing.

Robinson made the request to trustees of the Morganton Graded School District at their meeting Monday nighi without divulging his future With his growing reputation as athletic coach, fans in Morganton believe that Robinson is slated Jor a larger high school or college coaching post.

KEN'S PEN KEN (Goxette Sporti Editor) Duke Gets Mitts On Harris, Sizzling Kings Mountain QB.

Duke University has landed the big football catch of the year in George Harris, the sensational 185-pound Kings Mountain High School quarterback. Nobody has confirmed the move, but a man close to Blue Devil football operations says Harris is definitely Duke property, No doubt, this will come as great news on Methodist flats. They're sold on George in his own Southwest Conference and Coach Shu Carlton of the Mountaineers labels him f' as "one of the finest young men I've had the pleasure of coaching." I And, the fact that Harris is a brilliant student was all the more reason college scouts were interest in him Other reasons: He scored touchdowns, passed for nine more and was a.s good a defensive back as you'd find in the Southwest Conference. "Didn't see anybody his equal all year," said Coach Carlton. "We sort of checked his'running game, but he blew us down with his passing," said Coach Johnny Smith whose Belmont Red Raiders were beaten by Kings Mountain, 20-6.

"Any college should be fortunate in getting Harm. And, the Blue Devils forked him first. ALEXANDER The morning mail for coach Franz Holscher at Ashley High School has been unusually heavy the past couple of weeks. He opened his locker at the field house recently and showed a dozen or so letters, all making inquiries about some of the Greenies and their future football plans "You'd be surprised at the number of colleges interested in our boys," said Franz. "These are just a few of them.

Already have had two phone calls from that new "Air Force Academy in Colorado asking about some of our players." Records are made to be broken, it was once said and a couple of sophomore hotshots at North Carolina State are doing just that. Take Dick Christy, the amazing rookie from Chester, for example. He's only 80 yards short of the rushing yardage record compiled by Alex Webster in 1951. He'll likely crack it tonight when the Woifpack plays host to William Mary in a homecoming game. And, the other hall of State's scoring punch, Dick Hunter, is only three touchdowns short of Webster's scoring record.

Webster, you'll recall, was State's HARRIS PHOG SAYS THE STILT GREATEST LAWRENCE, "There's no question about it- he's the greatest basketball plaj er alive today." Dr. Forrest C. Allen, vetera University of Kansas basketba coach didn't hesitate last nigl in applying that tag to Wi 'The Stilt" Chamberlain. And the 7-foot Chamberlain: only a freshman. 14,000 others- watched in amazement as th but graceful Negro poure 42 points 'in leading th Kansas freshmen to an 81-71 vie ory over the Jayhawk varsity.

Allen, starting his 39th seaso at Kansas and who celebrate his 70th birthday yesterday, sel dom is at a loss for wards whe: it comes to talking about hi favorite sport. But he had a hav Lime finding the superlatives describe Chamberlain. Chamberlain, who was "cold first few minutes, dropped 16 of 35 field goal attempts an lit 10 free throws. He cam within two points of the all-Urn Kansas individual single-gam scoring record held jointly Clyde Lovelette, now with th Minneapolis and B. H.

In order to surpass Webster's marks, the State sophs should make the most of the William Mary game because there's tough West Virginia to be dealt with the following weekend. University of North Carolina's long series with Virginia's Cavaliers, renewed today at Chapel Hill, brings to mind some memorable -routs Like then 66-0 win for Virginia in 1912 and, in 1935, the Tar Heels triumphed to the tune of 61-0 in their own backyard Virginia was always easy pickings for Charlie Justice, the UNC All-America He gained a tola of 726 yards rushing in four years against the Cavaliers, going for eight touchdowns and passing for three more.

Why Howard (Hopalong) Ca-ssady, the great Ohio State back, All-America: In four years for the Buckeyes, Cassady has handled the ball 835 times and gained 2.54 miles in yardage, meanwhile compiling 216 points, an all-time Ohio State mark. All of his have been made on touchdowns. Any questions? Nick Ognovich, who'll be umpire in the December Shrine Bowl in Charlotte, was a two-time winner of the Jacobs Blocking Trophy while playing for Wake Forest If you're wondering why Cleveland traded Bert Rechichar (Tennessee), one of the finest defensive backs around, it's because he didn't like Bert's one-time interest in baseball he still holds an amazing Tri-State League (Spartanburg) record of five assists in one game for an outfielder Bert once told this writer that he'd stick to baseball, but a weakness in his left eye kept him from hitting the inside pitches. Joe Tomanchek, Hank Madden's righthand man at Charlotte Central High School, sat in the press box last night and took a few well-directed punches at the past. "You know something, we were a different ball club after Gastonia dumped us on our pants.

Believe it would have been another story had we played you folks later." Following the 19-0 loss to the Greenies, the Wildcat- 1 won four out of their last five games, including a rather one-sided blistering bf-Harding's Rams. Continued Joe: "Played most of our rinky dinks in the second half against Burlington. Still, we murder them. 33-0. Never should have lost that game to Reynolds.

Amos (Jerry! was too concerned over breaking some sort of passing record. He had completed seven out of seven. We had a first down with 11 yards to go for a touchdown and he throws four straight passes." The Boyden Yellow Jackets, Western Conference. representative against Durham for the State championship Friday night in Salisbury, waited late in the first half to pick up their initial first down As a matter of fact, there were only 40 remaining when Wallace Plyler broke off tackle for three for the first clown Had the Harlem Globetrotters trotted elsewhere last night, the Ashley-Salisbury playoff game, might have attracted the season's largest crowd at Charlotte's Memorial Stadium Central's annual feud with Harding drew better than 10,000 for the top mark.

Victory for the Uclans would automatically send them into the Rose Bowl January 2 against the Big Ten representative. A setback, coupled with a win by Oregon State over Oregon, would necessitate a vote by the nine PCC members.

UCLA walloped Oregon State 38-0 for Beavers' lone conference defeat. The underdog Trojans, ineligible for the bowl because they were there last year, lost to Washington and Stanford in conference play, and to Minnesota. Coach Jess Hill obviously is on a touchy spot with the alumni. He has lost the last two Sears straight to the Brain coach, Henry R. (Red) Sanders.

Miles. Keelty. 43, will serve unpaid in the position for which Miles got $25,000 a year. The Baltimore builder was promoted from vice president, and the position he vacated was not filled. Neither Keelty nor other Oriole directors would discuss the reason, but speculation is that a suggestion of Miles' is back of it.

Keelty and other newly elected directors unanimously reaffirmed their confidence in General Manager Paul Richards. rur 1 tiUIIIS New, Faces Open Quarterback BV THE ASSOCIATED PRESS There were three newcomers quarterbacking Atlantic Coast Says Bosox In Chicago, Swap BOSTON The Boston Daily Record today said it had learned "from a reliable source" that the Boston Red Sox have traded pitchers Mel Parnell and Russ Kemmcrer and infielder Ted Lepcio to Chicago for pitcher Virgil Trucks and outfielder Bob Nieman. The Record said the trade "definitely" has been made and "will be announced as soon as the football weekend is off the sports pages." If the trade materializes il will be the second big deal by the Red Sox within a few weeks. The Sox recently completed a nine-pfeyer swap with which brings first baseman Mickey Vernon and pitcher Bob Portcrficld to Boston.

Conference teams today as the league entered its next to last Saturday of play. The lineup today had Clemson against bowl-minded Auburn at Mobile, George Washington at Maryland, Wake Forest at Duke and Virginia at North Carolina. William and Mary will invade North Carolina State tonight while South Carolina has an open date. The pride of the ACC, Maryland had a second string quarterback in Its starting lineup against George Washington today. Lynn Bclghtol took over after starter Frank Tamburello was sidelined with a neck Infection.

Belghtol, a senior, has understudied Jack Scarbath, Bcrnic Faloney and Charlie Boxold during his years at Maryland. The Tcrps, rated No. 2 nationally and already signed to face Oklahoma In the Orange Bowl, were heavy favorites. With Wake Forest's ace quarterback, Nick Consoles, out with Injuries, Coach Tom Rogers sent second stringer Charlie Carpenter jCgainst Duke at Durham. Carpenter is a hot sophomore prospect and has performed well.

To replace Carpenter, Rogers probably will call on Dickie Newsome, a member of the bohunk squad whom Rogers was saving for next year. The game was the last of the season for the Deacons, but highly favored Duke still must face North Carolina December 3.

The Plainsmen were expected to use Fob James, the Southeastern Conference's top ground gainer, as they sought either an invitation to tlie Sugar or Cotton Bowls.

It's all over now for Gastonia, but they can look back on their most successful season in years. Salisbury, with the win, moves into the state Class AAA finals against Durham next night in Salisbury. Friday If Boyden blocks and tackles like they did last night, then they'll give the Bulldogs plenty of trouble. "It was a great team effort." was the way Coach Ludwig appraised things in the Salisbury dressing room.
