i ! i I i i i Big 5 Becomes Big 6; WSU Added To Rosier VICTORIA, B.C. (UPI) Wash ington State University was voted 'full membership in the Athletic Association of Western Unviersi ties by. the AAWU Council at its annual spring meeting here Wed nesday. The announcement', made by council president Arthur R. Hook er, said WSU would officially be come a member of the confer ence next July 1. However, Dr. Kooker said the Cougars actually became part of the Big Five the minute the favor able vote was returned during this morning's session. "For all practical purposes, they (WSU) are members now," Kooker said, "but they will not be given responsibilities as a con ference member until July 1, the beginning of our fiscal year." Kooker said Washington State will be eligible for a bid to the 1963 Rose Bowl game next Janu ary even though it would meet only two conference opponents, Washington and Stanford, during the coming season. Tom Hamilton, commissioner of the AAWU, said selection of the western representative in the Rose Bowl game will not be based strictly on conference records. "The team which will go will be the most representative on the West Coast," Hamilton said. Bates Pleased Stan Bates, WSU athletic direc tor, appeared gleeful over the an nouncement. "We are real pleased again," Bates said. "Since the breakup of the Pacific C o as t Conference we said the best pui poses of our institution can be served by being in a conference. We've had fine ' association with member schools of the AAWU in the past and we hope to have more." Washington State became a school without a conference when the old PCC was dissolved in 1958. The Cougars had been mem bers since 1919. When the Big Five was organized in 1959, WSU and three other schools, Oregon, Oregon State and Idaho, were left out. Disagreement over the code un der which the PCC operated led to its dissolution. Bates and Kooker agreed that it would be at least 1968 before WSU could arrange a full round robin football schedule with other members of the AAWU. In addition to Washington, the conference is comprised of UCLA, Southern California, California and Stanford. "If there is any possibility of getting Washington State on a round-robin schedule before 1968, it will be worked out," Kooker promised. In basketball, Kooker said WSU probably would be able to range games with all conference members by the 1963-64 season. He said that whether the Cougars would be eligible for any tourna ments following next season either as a conference member or on an at-large basis "would be up to the NUAA." No problems are anticipated in scheduling the Cougars in other sports in the conference. Kooker said it was the hope of the council that there might be bigger expansion in the AAWU, but he did not drop any names Fremont Tops Riverside In Babe Ruth Opening Opening Babe Ruth action for the Continental League Wednesday, Fremont defeated Riverside, 15-8, to take an early lead in league action.

The two Oregon institutions, along with Idaho, are the remain ing members of the defunct Pacif ic Coast Conference not in the Bie Five now becoming a six-member conference. "We are not surprised by this developments on the council, have been moving forward with our plans for the joint develop ment of our athletic programs through the Inter Institutional Council on Athletics which was established some months ago." The presidents, Arthur S. Flem ming at Oregon and James Jensen of OSU, said at the time they formed the council that the two schools, often bitter rivals, would act jointly on athletic matters. This was regarded as a block to any efforts to get one school into a conference without the other. There has been a disposition on some California campuses to blame Oregon for breakup of the old PCC.

UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eu-, gene USC's Dallas Long goes after bis third straight national collegiate shot put title June 15 16 when the 41st annual NCAA track and field championships are staged at Hayward Field. Long, whose 65-10V1 effort this spring is a pending world record, faced a solid field m his specialty with three place winners from the 1961 meet and NYU's sensational sophomore Gary Gubner (64-11) set to challenge the Trojan star. Gubner has been tabbed as Long's successor in the collegiate ranks and his performances this spring have supported that theory. In the only meeting between the two, long emerged with the win in the Coliseum Relays. Other point winners at Philadel phia a year ago, in addition to Long, set to compete are Villa- nova's Billy joe, one of three 60 foot tossers in the field with a best of 60-6, who placed fourth. runnerup Don Smith of Missouri (59-3) and fifth place finisher Dave Maggard of California (58 10). Oregon's Dave Steen, at 58-7. and Richard Inmon of Oklahoma (58-10V4) are other possible point getters in this event. The discus also abounds in re turning place winners with four of last year's top six returning for the 1962 meet. Arizona's Karl Johnstone (182-11V4) was runnerup to Glenn Passey of Utah State last year and Stanford's Dave Weill (189-11) came home with a third place finish. They figure to battle it out for the individual crown along with John McGrath of Occidental, who has a best of 180-5V4 Ron Mickle of Brigham Young and Jack Put nam of UCLA finished fifth and sixth respectively last year and once again will be in contention for point-winning spots. ban Jose states Harry Ed wards (179-6), Ed Kobler of Ford- ham (178-11) and Oregon's Jerry Stubblefield (171-11 Vi), who placed two years ago as a sophomore. are other fine competitors who can't be overlooked when the ac tion starts. The two distance runs of the meet, the three-mile and the 3, 000 meter steeplechase, will have a distinct local flavor. Both host Oregon and Oregon State could score heavily in these events. Dale Story -if Oregon State has turned in a 13.41.5 effort in the three-mile this spring, one-half sec ond faster than defending cham pion Pat Clohessy of Houston has managed. Oregon has a pair of runners un der 14 minutes this spring in Keith Forman (13:58.5) and Mike Leh- ner (13:58.6), while Bill Boyd of Oregon State has a best of 13:-59.8. Gerry Norman of Penn State (14:03.8) placed fourth last year and Steve Tekesky of Miami, O. gr-bbed off a sixth place finish in 1961. They'll both be in the aif'sajdSL nsaJ jmatistX. field, along with Vic Reeve of Oregon (8:47.1 2 mile), Abilene Christian's Dennis Moore (14:02.- 0), Gerad Nourse of Duke (8:59. 4 2 mile), and ViUanova's Pat Traynor. Traynor also figures strongly in the steeplechase, where he was the runnerup to John Lawler of Abilene Christian College a year ago. Lawler also returns along with Steve Moorhead of Penn State, fourth last spring, and San Jose State's Ron Davis, who fin ished sixth. Lehner (9:09.9) could double back here for the Ducks and de fending mile champion Dyrol Burl eson is a possibility if the Web foots need his points in the ex pected tight scramble for team honors. Two other fine competitors are By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS , Capping their long climb to wards the lead of the Pacific Coast League, San Diego's Padres showed nifty "how to" In moving into a virtual tie for first place. They beat league-leading Salt Lake City, 7-5, and moved within four slight percentage points of first place. A two-run rally by the Padres in the seventh inning put the Call- formans ahead to stay after the Bees had taken a one-run margin. Key single by Bobby Klaus and a crucial error by the Bees' Alvis at third allowd the seventh Padra run to score. In other action, Tacoma knocked off Vancouver twice. The scores were 2-0 In the first game. a ten-inning tussle, and 2-1 in the nightcap.

Expressing disappointment in the work of Bob Harrison, Hickey Tuesday dealt the three year veteran to the Philadelphia Eagles in exchange for a high draft choice, Harrison, a middle linebacker, got the word one day after Gordon Kelley, another member of the linebacking brigade, was traded to the Washington Red skins for what also was described as a hieh draft selection. "We weren't pleased with our linebacking or we wouldn't be trading those two boys," Hickey said. ' They're both fine players but just hadn t come up to ex pectations." At the same time, Hickey dis closed that he finally had made a long desired move by sending offensive tackle John Thomas into the middle linebacker spot. "Thomas is very fast and good tackier," Hickey said. Pauly Ngfficd Captain CORVALLIS (UPI) Steve Pauly was named Monday as cap tain of the 1963 Oregon State track and field team.
