Newell Drills
Olympic Five
MORGANTOWN, W. Va., (AP)
V. S. Coach Pete Newell is pre
paring his team for the worst in
basketball officiating at the Olym-
Sic Games later this month in
ome.
"It's not that there won't be
good officials there," Newell said.
"It's just that they will be from
different countries and in some
cases won't speak the English
language."
Newell said he even has been
calling fouls "backwards" in
practice sessions at West Point,
N. Y.
"We want our players lo get
used to any kind of call so it
won't upset their game," Newell
aaid.
"After all. there's no use argu
ing with the referees, Nome of
them won't be able to understand
you anyway, and others won't
even understand one another."
Newell said his Olympic team
till is not in playing condition.
He doubts they will be before the
invasion of Rome for the games
starting Aug. 25.
Newell was handed what has
been regarded as an enviable assignment.
- Among the super-stars on the
team are All-Americas Jerry West
of West Virginia, Darrall Imhoff
of his own California team, Oscar
Robertson of Cincinnati and Jerry
Lucas of Ohio Stale's national
champions, '
But this assignment isn't as
easy as it looks, Newell said.
"Everyone of these players
were stars in their college days.
Basketball is game of habit. All
are used to taking charge and
handling the ball most of the time.
It's hard to get this group to learn
to play as a team. It takes time
and we don't have much of that."

teams came on only 14 hits, seven

DRAIN'S BLACK SOX will be out to repeat their 1958 ond 1959 performances in the
NBC State Tournament to be held at Drain ond Roseburg this weekend. Drain has won
the state and regional titles for the past two years and went on to win the National
crown in 1958. Last year the Block Sox finished seventh in the national play-offs.

Congress State Tournament this! in the Santiam and middle Willa-
weekend will be Salem and Drain.
Drain's Black Sox are perpetual
ly one of the top semi-pro teams
in the state. In 1958 the Black Sox
won the National title for semi-pro
teams and finished seventh in last
year's National tourney.
The season the Black Sox have
played teams from Canada to
Southern California racking up an
impressive season record. The
team is composed primarily of col
lege students from the West Coast.
Ray Stratton, player-manager of
the Black Sox, has lots of baseball
experience, including some profes
sional ball. In 1938 Stratton was
selected as the All-American Man
ager and Manager of the Year as
he led the Black Sox to the Na
tional Championship.
The Black Sox will be out to re
peat their performances of the past
two years, while oVher teams such
as Salem, Eugene, Roseburg and
Albany will be out to take the
mette Valleys. Stayton, Mill City
and Salem at one time all had
semi-pro clubs, but interest slow
ly died out.
Harvey Koepf manages the team
and handles the catching duties for
Salem. Koepf played pro ball in
the Northwest League and was a
j team mate of Mike Coen of Rose
burg when the two players were at
Willamette University.
Local fans will recall the two
losses the Santiam Loggers handed
the Roseburg White Sox earlier in
the season. Salem has also defeat
ed other top semi-pro teams, in the
state, including a split with the
Eugene Ducks.
Along with Salem and Drain,
teams will come from Roseburg,
Lowell, Eugene, Albany. Cottage
Grove, Coos Bay, McKenzie and
Eugene-Springfield. Several teams
are considered having ball clubs
capable of taking home the state
crown.
Drain, the perennial favorite, will
have competition from Roseburg,
Salem,- Albany and the Eugene
Ducks. Any team in the tournament
could easily upset the favorites and
win the honors.
Friday the NBC tourney will open
in Drain and Roseburg. The first
game in Drain is scheduled for 6
p.m., while the opener at Legion
Field will begin at 7.
