Dons Bow To Ratterman's Great Passing Buffalo Wins, 27-25; Youth Pitches Three Touchdown Strikes LOS ANGELES, UP) Racking up three touchdown strikes and leading the team in brilliant fashion, Quarterback George (The Kid) Ratterman led the Buffalo Bills to a 27 to 25 triumph over the Los Angeles Dons in an All-America football conference game before .36,087 fans yesterday. The 21-year-old Ratterman put the Bills in the lead immediately after they took the opening kick-off. He completed four passes in five plays as the Buffalo club sped 70 yards, and capped it with a 32-yard pass over the goal to Left End Alton Baldwin.

Los Angeles took the kickoff and promptly went for the tying score, going 65 yards in 11 plays, with Quarterback Charle O'Rourke spinning the last five yards for Record Crowd Of 74,065 Sees Wild Struggle Gionfriddo's Amaiing Catch of DiMaggio's Long Hit Saves Day (Continued from Page One) ahead at 8-5 by their four-run stand in the first half of the frame, and the Yankee were hot and panting to make a big inning comeback when Gionfriddo killed it off. The scampering little gardener had gone In to start the inning as a replacement for Eddie Miksis, and it probably was the greatest tactical move Manager Burt Shotton ever will make. 'IMPOSSIBLE' CATCH Two Yanks were out and two runners were straining on the base paths when Dlmaggio caught hold of one of lefthander Joe Hatten's slants with everything he had and sent It screaming high and far toward the outer reaches. The crowd stood and yelled "It's in" as Gionfriddo raced back and back, his short legs churning the turf. It didn't appear possible he could make the' catch, but just as the pellet was ready to drop over the railing before the Brooklyn bullpen at the 415-foot mark, the little guy leaped up and speared it with his gloved-hand.

Cal Meets Wisconsin; SAN FRANCISCO (LP) The Pacific coast's two remaining undefeated football clubt, California and U.S.C., take the acid test this week end. Continuing their intersection-al strife against their "good neighbor" teams from the Big Nine, the Pacific Coast conference teams hope to atone for what happened Saturday.

Rams, 17-14 MILWAUKEE, UP) A hard-charging line paved the way to a 17-14 Green Bay Packers victory over the Los Angeles Rams yesterday in a National Football league game before 31,613 fans at State Fair park. The actual victory margin was Ted Fritsch's 23-yard field goal in the final period, but it was one of the sharpest lines in Green Bay history which was responsible for the victory which kept the Pack ers in a tie with the Chicago Cardinals for the league western division leadership. The teams battled scorelessly through the first half, which saw a single downfield march by each club stalled by goal line fumbles, and Ram Halfback Steve Bagarus carried off the field with a broken left leg after a hard tackle. Bagarus will be out for the season.

"I ran back about 100 feet, I guess," he said afterwards, mod estly. "When he came up I knew If he hit a homer it would tie the game, so all I thought about was catching that ball. It was against the wall, I think. The boys in the bull pen said it would have fallen, over the low gate out there." Everyone in the New York dressing room agreed that they had never seen DiMaggio hit a ball harder than the one Gionfriddo caught. "That was the ball game," all present agreed.

BILLS STRIKE BACK The already dizzy fans got more excitement, as the Bills received the next kickoff and took another five plays to go 78 yards the fifth play being a pass good for 61 yards from Ratterman to his right end, Dolly King.

Buffalo's Ed Ilirsch grabbed a loose football off John Kim- brough's back, ran 23 yards to the Los Angeles 7 and Halfback Chet Mutryn bounced over for the third Buffalo score in the first quarter. The Bills made it 27-7 in the third period as Ratterman hurled his third payoff strike. It was good for 22 yards to Steve Juzwik. Juz-wik converted all but the third touchdown. Los Angeles got back into the game with two tallies as O'Rourke threatened Ratterman's aerial supremacy.

He tossed two strikes to his star end Joe Aguirre, one for 30 yards, the other over the line of scrimmage for four yards. Kramer Takes Another Tille SAN FRANCISCO UP) Jack Kramer of Los Angeles, seeded No. 1, won the Pacific coast singles title, yesterday with a hard-fought 6-4, 6-2, 8-6 finals triumph over second-seeded Tom Brown of San Francisco.

Kramer and Ted Schroeder of Los Angeles won the men's doubles crown by eliminating John Brom which and Goeff Brown of Austral ia, 8-6, 7-5, 6-4, in a blistering, match that had the crowd of 2,000 on the edge of the seats.

'49ers Rally fo Tie Baltimore Colts, 28-28 BALTIMORE, UP) The San Francisco '49ers came from behind with two quick touchdowns in (he fourth period to gain a 28-28 tie with the surprising Baltimore Colts in a tingling All-America football conference game yes terday before a crowd of 29,556 persons. For a while it looked like Baltimore would upset the favored Cal-ifornians as the Colts broke a 14-14 halftime deadlock to score twice in the third quarter. But Frankie Albert, '49ers quarterback, engineered two brilliant touchdown-producing passes to knot the score. Gionfriddo steadily for all the time it took him to trot in to his dugout. That was the one dramatic high spot of the long struggle, which was not otherwise distinguished by great baseball, but was good, clean fun all the way.

Some of the smashing blocks thrown into the rival shortstops in breaking up double plays at second would have done credit to any football game. The boys are warming up, and tomorrow's tussle should be worth traveling farther than the Bronx to see. GREGG VS. BEVENS Shotton, having shuffled his pitching staff like a Mississippi card sharp for six days, declared he had no idea which one of his staff would be given tomorrow's vital assignment. "I've got 10 Ditchers and I'll use 'em all if I need to," he said, solemnly.

The best bet appeared to be that Hal Gregg would start and that Casey would finish. There was no question of Manager Bucky Harris' choice for the big one, the result of which will make a great difference in the size of the players' series checks. It had to be Bill Bevens, the large fellow who three days back came within one long out of hurling the first no-hit game in playoff history, but lost the decision on Cookie Lavagetto's double in the ninth.
