Sport Scene
By JACK WILKINSON
United Press International
Charles Gilliam, who runs
the migratory waterfowl divi-
sion of the Oklahoma Wildlife
Department, isn't too optimis-
tic about this fall’s duck sea-
son.
"We recommended a more
for a 43-26 victory over the
North in the annual All-State
high school football game.
The victory gave the South a
2-1 edge in the 1964 All-State
classics, but the North still
leads in the football series, 15-
9-3. The South won this year in
basketball, and the North won
in baseball.
The football game had its
moments as a defensive battle,
with neither team scoring more
than one touchdown in any of
the first three periods. The
North led by scores of 7-6 aft-
er one period, 13-6 at the half
and 20-14 at the three-quarter
mark.
Break Game Open
But the fourth period was a
different story.
The tide turned when South
quarterback Jim Burgar of
Lindsay went in from the one
and then converted to give the
Rebels a 2120 lead, their first
of the game.
Ron Shotts of Weatherford
intercepted a pass less than
two minutes later and ran it
back for another South touch-
down, and the margin grew to
28-20. The North got close
again, 28-26, on a one-vard
scoring burst by Joe Poslick of
Enid, but couldn’t get going
again.
South Runs Wild
The South put it on ice with
touchdowns by Gene Cagle of
Lawton and Al Watson of Vel-
ina-Alma in the closing min-
utes.
Poslick had scored two earl-
ier touchdowns for the North,
on runs of one yard in the first
period and four in the second
As one baseball man put it.

“It wouldn’t surprise me in
the least to see the National
Broadcasting Company go out
now and buy a ball club of its
own."
Under terms of the sale, CBS
purchased 80 per cent of the
Yankees while the former own-
ers, Dan Topping and Del
Webb, retained 20 per cent.
CBS also has an option to buy
the remaining 20 per cent with-
in the next five years.

three-quarters of the 10 league

Gilliam said Oklahoma wild-

on mallards and want the right
to include one redhead and one

head and canvassback ducks
have been off-limits the past
several seasons because of low

strongly.

were scored by Leonard Arn-
old of Oklahoma City Capitol
Hill on a 16-yard pass from
Burgar in the second quarter,
and by Burgar on a 33-yard
runu in the third.

AUSTIN, Tex. (UPI) - "He

football,” says Pat Culpepper,
assistant football coach at the
University of Texas. "His eyes
squint and his freckles pop out

Longhorn fans hope to see
freckles all over Memorial Sta-

who wears them is “The

defending national champions’
top All-America candidate at
offensive guard and linebacker.
