October 9, 1960

News

Jetstream Smith’s 98-yard kickoff return for a touchdown to open the second half sparked a 20-point quarter and the Raiders held on from there to beat the Texans, 20-19, in Dallas.

Tony Teresa, still laboring with a back injury, played sparingly.

Linebacker Riley Morris suffered a severely bruised back during the game. He took ill and was given oxygen on the flight home in reaction to an injection given by a doctor treating him. He was rushed to the hospital by ambulance when the flight touched down in the Bay Area, but was released shortly after to recuperate at home.

Other players suffering injuries during the game were tight end Gene Prebola (pulled muscle) and wide receiver Charlie Hardy (bruised quadriceps).
