Mickey blotched his first can vas, as it were, when he lost a controversial 10-round split deci sion to Ortega July 11 in Madi son Square Garden. The 24-year-old from Saginaw, Mich, promises to "bring all my paint brushes" to the same gar den ring. "Ho II get hit so many left jaiis he won't know whether he's a fighter or a retouched Rem brandt." Ortcgi, a 2?-ynar-old from Mex ican, Mexico, will have something to say ' hout that, of course. Rated one of the best welterweights in the business and with a possible title bout with Virgil Akins at stake. Ortega won't fool around. In their first meeting last month Ortega kept pounding away, ig noring Crawford's jabs that won the Saginaw scrapper a 7-3 voto from referee Mark Conn. How ever, the two judges thought Or tega's persistent rushing was the decisive faclor. Judge Harold Barnes voled for the Mexican 8-2 and judge Bnhby Dawson 6-4. It's up to Mickey to pack a little more power in his jabs Wednes day night if he wants to keep Or tega from boring in. The scrap will be nationally lelevised (ARC) starling at 9 p.m. (EST). It will be scored on a round basis. Sports Calendar WEDNESDAY PAL CLUB: Winslon, Douglas High.

College Stars Have Surplus Quarterbacks CHICAGO (AP)-Will it be King Hill of Rice, Ray Brown of Mis sissippi, Tom Forrestal of Navy or jim mnowsKi of Michigan Stale? That's the lineup of All - Star quarterbacks for the big game against Detroit's Lions Friday night at Soldier Field. If the All-Stars hope to win, they'll need a sharp field general. Otto Graham, former Northwest ern University star and lat?r the quarterback who led the Cleveland Browns to numerous professional football titles, has not announced his starting lineup. But it's a good bet that Hill will be the quarterback. If not Hill, then it's anyone's guess. Graham says he 11 play a wide-open game I which, at best, means a lot of passing. "You can't run through thai pros," says Graham. Colleg Line Hug The All-Stars have a line that averages 234 pounds from tackle to tackle. They're well forlilicd up front and have the horse?, if needed, in the backfield. But since Graham is the coach, and he knows what it takes to beat the pros, he'll probably have his quarterbacks pitching to his halfbacks. Graham is satisfied with his team's showing in drills and in sists that it lakes a lot of desire to beat the champions of the Na tional Football League. "The pros should win," says Otto, but somehow, somewhere, lurks the idea that his All-Stars might surprise the Lions in the 25th anniversary of the contest. The game will be broadcast -and televised nationally by ABC at 8 30 p.m., EST.

(AP)-Wash-inglon Stale College isn't interest ed in formation of a new athletic league now to replace the late Pacific Coast Conference, Athletic Director Stan Bales said here. "There is slill the hope of some that before football commitments through 1964 are completed that tilings may fall back in line," he said. "Time is a great healer." Robert Gibb, athletic director at the University of Idaho, said ' Idaho would also sit tight and wait ' for the time being. i Holh tiinb and Bates saw a pos sible renewal of the old PCC northern divisioa schedule in bas ketball and track after the con ference ties end next year. Bales said WSC has its football schedule completed through 1964 and that Stanford is the only Cali fornia school on the slate after I960.

Big Ten Sits Back, Awaits Bowl Role CHICAGO (AP) - The Big Ten apparently will play a waiting game corcerning its role in the Rose Bowl after the 1960 Pasa dena classic. The 1960 contest Is Ihe last ih t'.o current contest between the Big Ten and the Pacific Coast Con ference, which disbands June 30. 1959. Big Ten Commissioner K. L. (Tug) Wilson Tuesday declined comment on what the Big Ten plans in fie post-season football competition after 1960. Lathrop L. Leishman, football chairman of the Tournament of Roses Assn., has said the Rose Bowl game will be continued after 1960. But as far as the Big Ten is concerned, Wilson said, "It's em barrassing because we are invited guests at the Rose Bowl game and we can't go asking to be invited." Wilson said he has not. heard from Jack Lowe, Cotton Bowl president, who has said he would like a Big Ten-Southwest Confer ence rivalry in the Dallas post season feature. "I have a great deal of respect for the Southwest Conference," said Wilson, "but I think those people can understand that our present attention is occupied with the Rose 'Bowl situation." jfor wafer siding!
