New border clashes
fans mounting
tension in East
JERUSALEM (JP) Am Israeli
military informant said 10
Egyptian soldiers were slain
and 20 captured early today by
an Israeli force which stormed
and captured an Egyptian fron
tier post. Israel said the raid
was in retaliation for an earli
er Egyptian assault on an Is
raeli police post.
An Egyptian spokesman in
Cairo said four Egyptians and
four Isrlaelies were billed in the
attack, which took place at
Rumtiiia, about three miles in
side the Egyptian-held terri
tory. The spokesman said the
Israeli force -wias driven off.
Egypt filed a strong protest
with the U. N. mixed armistice
commission.
As this latest clash fanned
mounting tension in the Middle
East, U. S. secretary of state
Duilles and British foreign se
cretary MacMillan conferred
for an hour in Geneva on Pal
estine problems.
Isreal sources in Geneva said
the United States has promised
to consider a list of arms want
ed by Israeli to counter Egypt’s
growing arsenal, bought from
communist Czechoslovakia.

FOOTBALL PICKS

NEW YORK (IP) The list of

Last week’s score was 28-15,
making the season mark 190
69 for .738.

OFFENSE IS DOWN IN
COLLEGE FOOTBALL
by The Associated Press
Offense 'is down, defense is
up 'in college football this sea
son and the coaches have an
answer — !the return (for bet
ter or for worse) of the single
platoon.
‘One-way football” was
(most cited Friday toy a (group
of coaches polled by the As
sociated Press after statistics
showed scoring and passing on
the decline.
Scoring is aft its lowest mid
season e'bib since 1943. Passing
hasn’t played such a minor
role since 1941.
Only two of the coaches
(polled admitted knowing of no
reason for the chahge in em
phasis from offense to defense
But Wilkinson of Oklahoma,
'the most successful of the ac
tive mentors doesn’t see any rea
son at all. 'Michigan’s Bennie
Oosterlbaan ibasnl; “the 2east
idea — tout I don’t think it’s a
trend.”
Boibby Dodd of Georgia
Tech, however, saw it coming.
So did Blanton Collier of Ken
tueky.
I “When they banned the two
. platoon I said we’d reach a
' point where defense would ov
ershadow offense,” said Dodd.
“A boy plays more now on his
defensive ability than his of
fensive ability.”
Said Collier: “My thought
was that the change would
make for 'lower scores. Defense
is more natural 'to teach than
offense and coaches may be
makiinlgi decisions and substi
tutions in terms of whether a
'boy Can play defense.”
In the Big Seven, Missouri’s
Don Baurot, Kansas’ Chuck
'Mather and Colorado’s Dallas
Ward agreed in the one-pla
toon explanation. So did Jack
Curtis of Utah in the Skyline.
