Ex-Rams On Top
By JIM BECKER
Associated Press Sports Writer
The Los Angeles Rams are hav
ing quarterback trouble, but the
ex-Rams are doing fine.
Billy Hade of the Chicago Bears
and Frank Ryan of the Cleveland
Browns, a pair of former Rams,
both had great days Sunday, and
kept their teams the only un
beaten, untied clubs in the Na
tional Football league.
Wade threw for three touch •
downs and ran for another as the
Bears moved their record to 3-0
and remained in sole possession of
first place in the Western Confer
ence. The Bears ruined Detroit
with 28 points in the second quar
ter and wound up with a 37-21
victory over the Lions, now 1-2.
Ryan tormented the Rams with
two touchdown passes, while Jim
my Brown did the running job
in a 20-6 victory. The Browns, also
3-0, are now sole holders of the
Eastern Conference lead, while
the Rams — who have scored only
22 points in three games—are 0-3.
Pittsburgh, saddled with a tic
in its opener when an extra point
try hit the goal post, moved into
second place in the East with a
23-10 victory over the previously
unbeaten St. Louis Cardinals. The
Steelers are 2-0-1.
Another castoff quarterback.
Y. A. Tittle, the old Bald Eagle of
the New York Giants, returned
to action and clobbered the winless
Philadelphia Eagles 37-14, to run
the Giants’ record to 2-1.
In other games, the Green Bay
1 Packers pulled out a wild one over
the Baltimore Colts 31-20, Wash
ington trimmed Dallas 21-17 and
the Minnesota Vikings swamped
the San Francisco 49ers 45-14.
In the American Football
League, Houston beat Buffalo
31-20 and the New York Jets
nipped the Oakland Raiders 10-7
in Saturday night games. Sunday,
San Diego belted Kansas City 24
10 to remain undefeated and Den
ver edged Boston 14-10.

Bardahl’s chief opponent — their
crowns.
The event was the final of the
year for the American Powerboat
Association in the seven races that
determine the national champion
ship.
