Ky JOHNNY McDONALD Lewis and Clark College fllom Portland, Ore., listed among the nation's top small colleges In offensive statistics will serve as the Universit; of San Diego's homecoming opponent Saturday afternoon in Balboa Stadium. The battle shapes up pret- ty even. And to make It more confusing to separate the two clubs is the fact that both are nicknamed the Pio- neers. '.I'he Oregonians have won two, lost one and tied College o! Idaho last week, 19-19. Land C, coached by Joe Hus- ton, has beaten Portland State College, 12-7, and Southern Oregon, 60-13. The Oregon Pioneers' only loss was to Chico State, 26-20. The Portland team Is list- ed third In the ational As- sociation of Intercollegiate Athletics In rushing offense and 13th in overall offense It has averaged 388 yards pe; game, passing and rushing. Also, the club is listed 12th in total team rushing defense, allowing opponent. only 70 yards per game. Needless to say, coach Bob Mccutcheon and his assist- ants have spent many hours (Continued on b-7, Col 1)
