Is Miller Kansas bound?
From Associated Prsss Reports
Oregon State basketball coach Ralph
Miller admits he has talked to Kansas Athletic
Director Monte Johnson about returning to his
alma mater to complete his coaching career.
“But it was a very casual conversation,”
said the 64-year-old Miller. “I’m an alumnus of
KU and I happen to be a basketball coach and
so I did talk to him to see if I could be of any
help, and not necessarily for myself.”
Miller has been mentioned as a possible
replacement for Ted Owens, who was fired
from the Kansas job, but he downplayed the
report in a telephone interview Tuesday from
California, where he is vacationing.
Miller is third among active coaches in vic
tories with 557-309 record in 32 years as a major
college coach. He coached at Wichita State
and Iowa before coming to Oregon State in
1970.
The Oregon State coach’s conversation
with Johnson occurred during the NCAA
coaches convention held in conjunction with
the final four over the weekend in Albuquerque,
N.M.
“There has been no official offer,” said
Miller. “To me, it's strictly a rumor. Rumors are
just rumors until something official happens.”
Miller was born in Chanute, Kan., and is a
1942 graduate of Kansas, where he was the
starting quarterback in football and a three-year
letterman in basketball under Phog Allen.
Three years ago, Miller was inducted into
the Kansas Hall of Fame and the Kansas
University Athletic Hall of Fame.
Would he return to Kansas if the job were
offered?
“It would depend,” Miller said. “We certainly
haven't thought about it to this extent but if
anything should transpire it would be because
this is my alma mater and I would sure have to
consider it. ”
Since moving to Corvallis, Miller has said
on more than one occasion that he would not
like to return to the cold winters of the
Midwest.
Miller’s annual salary at Oregon State is
$49,560, not including revenue from his
lucrative basketball camp, but Beavers'
Athletic Director Dee Andros is trying to get
him a raise. Andros has asked Miller’s salary to
be raised to $54,880 in the next fiscal year. That
would put him ahead of the $52,000 being paid
to new Oregon coach Don Monson.
"I’m no spring chicken,” Miller said, "but if
my health permits, I see no reason why I can’t
continue coaching another three, four or five
years."
Andros said Miller “can continue to coach
here as long as he wants to, as long as his
health is good.”
Miller also promised Charlie Sitton, cur
rently a junior, that he would remain as coach
at Oregon State throughout Sitton’s career at
the school.
Andros said he hasn’t been approached by
Kansas officials about talking to Miller.
“I cant take this seriously until
someone calls me for permission," Andros said I
know Ralph is very highly thought of back there
He's one of their all-time great athletes, so the talk
doesn't surprise me."
Beavers sweep softballers
“They’re beatable,” said
Oregon coach P.J. Harlin after
the Duck's doubleheader loss to
Oregon State at Corvallis in
NorPac softball action last
Tuesday.
But only if Oregon gets
some offense and stops mak
ing errors. OSU swept both
games, by scores of 6-1 and
3-1. to drop the Ducks record
I ■ .- - ■ i
to a 1-2 count for the year.
OSU boasts one of the top
hitting and pitching combo's
in the NorPac conference in
the tikes of catcher Erin Capps
and pitcher Trina Marvin.
Capps came into the game
with a league-leading .556 bat
ting average and the Ducks
found out her hitting was for
real.

Tabb, Salazar headline
Prefontaine Classic
EUGENE (AP) — World record holders Mary Decker Tabb
and Alberto Salazar are scheduled to headline the Prefont
aine Classic track and field meet here June 4
Tabb, winner of the Sullivan Award as amateur athlete of
the year in 1982, will be returning to the Hayward Field track
where she set world records for 5,000 and 10,000 meters last
year
The distance of Tabb's Prefontaine Classic race has yet
to be determined, but meet director Patrick Holleran said the
field likely will include Fifth Avenue Mils champion Debbie
Scott of Canada
Salazar, the holder of the world record in the marathon as
well as the American record at 5,000 and 10,000 meters, will
run in a 10,000 meter race sponsored by Runner's World
magazine Holleran said the field will include Bill McChesney
of Eugene, who holds the third fastest U S time at 5,000
meters
Capps went 2-for-2 with an
RBI in helping the Beavers win
the second game and hold off
a late Oregon rally.
“Capps was making good
solid contact today,” Harlin
said. "However most of their
runs were scored on errors.”
The errors, nine all together
(five in the first game and four
in the second), spelled the
Ducks’ demise and could be
attributed to the team’s first
NorPac league game and a case
of the 'itters.
"It was our first conference
game and the girls were a little
uptight," Harlin said. "We had
real weak hitting, but our base
running was outstanding.”
"She (Marvin) wasn’t over
whelming today,” Harlin said.
"I thought the other pitcher
(Joan Haivey who won the se
cond game) had a tougher
game."
"It is very frustrating. We
were very uptight," Davison
said. “I think we learned a lot
from this series against OSU."
The learning process will
continue as the Ducks host
the Vikings of Portland State
in a contest at the softball
field, south of Hayward Field
at 2:30 p.m. today.
