J C Cagers Take Low-Pressure Football Loop Gets Backing SAN .TOSE. Calif. Wl Glenn C. "Tiny" Hartranft, athletic director of San Jose state uoucge inursuay proposed a conference of seven in dependents to play low-pressura football starting in 1953. His proposal would return the sport to four or more Pacific Coast scnooii wnicn nave aroppeu iuoi ball in the past two or three years. Hartranft would "eliminate rath er than minimize ailments of inter collegiate football." Essence of the Dlan is nonsub- sized, low-budget football that would not bid for huge stadia or interseclional game crowds of 90,- 000. Would Include The conference would Include seven of these nine schools: San Jose State, College of Pacific, U of Nevada. Loyola of Los Angeles St Mary's. San Francisco, Santa Clara, Portland, Ore., University and Gonzaga of Spokane, Wasn. Only San Jose, COP and Santa Clara still are fielding End teams. "I have been encouraged by vir tually all of these schools to pro ceed," Hartranft said. "My job is to get specific commitments so we can start play in He said he has run into some opposition from board of athletic control members who "are too froud to play the type of football m proposing." Hartranft said the schools must seek their own financial level and revolutionize their ideas of good football.

Tight Battle Fought It was a tight battle through the first half Roseburg took an 18-14 first half. Roseburg took an 18-14 Yoncalla drew abreast shortly after the second quarter started and in the early minutes of that period, the Tigers moved ahead, 31-24, but by halftime the.

There was at least one resound ing "no," and even the "yes" vot es were covered with if's. The decision was announced late Wednesday at a news conference that raised far more questions than it answered. Reporters were called into a suite at the Shoreham Hotel for a Conference attended by Harry Hunt, a Los Angeles promoter; Fe lix Bocchicchio, Walcott's manager, and Jack Hurley, who manages Matthews, an up and coming Seat tle light heavyweight. Bocchicchio said Hunt had made this offer: "He said he'd give us $250,000 and give me 50 per cent of every thing." There was a catch to the ac ceptance, though. Bocchicchio said Walcott had a contract with the International Boxing Club, and that he will go to Coral Gables, Eagles Hold Thin Lead In Industrial Rivalry The Eagles moved into a thin first place lead in the hammer-and-tong Industrial League bowl ing battle Thursday night, but it was a Pyrrhic victory for the pace setters. Both leader and runnerup took it on the chin. Last week's leader, Firmco, was completely white washed by the Elks team. The Elks rolled the high series, 2,845, and the high team game, 1,027. The Eagles moved into the lead in spite of winning only one point from Jovin Brake. Adrian Bowen of Coen Supply hit the high indi vidual game with a 236, and Earl Sargent was high series bowler for the Lions with a 606. Both teams swept points and games. INDUSTRIAL LEAGUE W I.

Bocchicchio said Norris would have to match, or better, Hunt's offer to get the fight. Harry Markson, director of box ing for the IBC, promptly said in New York: "We are confident Bocchicchio will fulfill his contractual agree ment to fight Ezzard Charles for the heavyweight title for the IBC." Here are a few of the questions which never got a definite answer: When will the bout be held? Some time in May. Where? No answer here, but Las Vegas, Nev., Los Angeles and Phil adelphia were mentioned as pos sibilities. Who is Harry Hunt? Hunt re plied he'd done some promoting. No, he'd never promoted a figut before. Clarence Henry Stops Satterfield CHICAGO I What Clarence Henry wants to know is "Where do I go from here?" The sensational 23-year old Los Angeles heavyweight disposed of Bob Satterfield in 1:41 of the first round Wednesday night in a sched uled 10 rounder in Chicago Stadi um. Referee Freddie Gilmore finally stopped the fight after Satterfield arose shakily from the canvas for the third time, blood streaming from a gash over his left eye brow and Henry jogged in for more blasting. It was young Henry's 14th con secutive win and his 17th knockout in 32 pro fights . He weighed 1S7 and Satterfield 180. "I want to fight Rocky Marci ano," said Henry, a 1948 Golden Gloves champion. "But where do I go from here I do not know." He meant that hi will have to get on Joe Walcott's waiting list, behind Ezzard Charles and Mai-ciano.
