SAN FRANCISCO IUPD Move
over, Boston, Mass., and Colum
bus, Ohio, and the rest of the bel
Iigerent sports cities.
usi aan rraucisco take over as
the most intolcrcnt sports town in
the nation.
The city by (he Golden Gate,
once noted for having the most
fair-minded sports people in the
world, now has developed a band
of vicious, blood-thirsty, name
calling "fans" who won't take
"no" for an answer from author
ities.
Just the facts:
Herman f ranks, very compe
tent third base coach for the San
Francisco Giants during the 1958
campaign, resigned under the
consistent booing and abuse given
him by the fans because rookie
runners wouldn t heed his instruc
lions and were thrown out going
for home.
-Frankie Albert quit us coach
of the Forty Niner football team
because he didn't want his fam
ily to have to stand the abuse
from the so-called fans who
blamed him for every defect in
the 1958' machine.
Two National League um
pires, Ken Burkhardt and Vlnce
Delmore, were beaten up by an
enraged fan as they wont to din
ner at a North Beach restaurant
last year.
In 195d, police had to put in
riot calls twice at Seals Stadium

because fans streamed out of the
seats to attack an umpire. One
woman was injured in one of
of these attacks, during which the
umpire swung his mask to protect
himself. The woman sued the
Seals management, of all things,
and won!
At Stanford this year a near
riot broke out between students of
Stanford and Southern California
rooters after the game, with hun
dreds swinging fists at the same
time.
At Kezar Stadium on Sunday,
many hundreds of fans battled po
lice after San Francisco had de
feated Baltimore. ' There were
bloody noses, bumped heads and
other injuries before order was
restored.
A few years back, students at
University of California, tore up
the plank seats when their team
failed to win the big game against
Stanford.
Little Johnny Longden, one of
the greatest jockics of all-time,
was roundly booed the other day
when he made his comeback at
the age of 48 after being out
with a broken leg. The fans ex
pressed their dislike for Johnny
because he doesn't bring home a
winner every time he goes up on
a horse.
Willie Mays, one , of the, most
exciting baseball players of the
current era, is booed by San
Francisco fans and then goes
into a slump. One- of the great
natural hitters of all-time, Willie
got the cat-calls last summer sev
eral times because he left runners
stranded on base.
Bad manners? A break-down in
authority? - It's hard to figure
what the fans expect.
They have developed an intoler
ance for anything . but winners.
Every day, in every game, every
year.

Dinner Funds
The Blue Mountain Master

proximately $80 from their ban
quet held in honor of college
and high school athletes here,
last week. Ash Mousel, presi
dent of the group, said yester
day. "We diHn't have the usual
turnout due to so many other
activities in town that night,"
Mousel said, "and many of the
fellows who ordinarily buy
tickets didn't do so this year."
He urged all football fans,
especially members of Master
minds, to contribute lo the ban
quet fund to help defray the
expenses of the dinner. He
said to see him at his office or

OK Forfeiture
Of OTI Title
PORTLAND (UPI) Officials of
the Oregon Collegiate Conference
met here Monday and approved
the forfeiture of all games played
by Oregon Technical Institute last
football season because the school
used four players who were in
eligible.
All of Oregon Teen s opponents
were voted winners by scores of
1-0. :
The action followed charges that
Oregon Tech used the four players
to win the 1958 conference tool
ball title. Winston D. Purvine, di
rector of Oregon Tech, said the
school unwittingly used the four
Dlavcrs by incorrectly interpret
ing the number of hours credited
to junior college transfers for eli
gibility.
Purvine said sweeping cnanges
have been made in the athletic
policy at Oregon Tech, but did not
elaborate. Other member schools
agreed to defer final action until
the spring meeting of the corner-ence.
Conference members also adopt
ed an original motion from a
groi'p of coaches that the four
Oregon Tech players lose one
vear of football competition. The
members voted, however, that all
four can participate in other
snorts beginning with the new
term next month.
Oregon College Education,
which lost only one game last
season lo Oregon Tech was of
fered the 1958 conference football
crown but refused it. The title
was declared vacated.
All the conference schools were
represented at the meeting. They
included Oregon Tech,, Portland

the title in a blaze of glory, leav
ing only the pickings for the other
eight schools. But the Huskies
dropped a pair to lightly-regarded
Colorado, then stumbled to vic
tory over Hawaii and Houston, a
pair of clubs not generally recog
nized as powerhouses in the bas
ketball world.
Although Washington may still
be the favorite, there remain at
least five darkhorses, foremost
among the latter being defending
champion California and a sur
prisingly strong Southern Califor
nia five.
The Bears have rung up vic
tories over St. Mary's, title favor
ite in the West Coast Athletic
Conference, San Francisco and
San Jose State, dropping only a
close decision "to second-ranked
Kansas State. The Trojans
breezed through Iowa State and
Kansas last weekend and appear
to be a definite title threat.
Further north, Oregon and Ida
ho look much improved over last
year.
(The Wcbfoots hold victories
over Brigham Young and Wichita
while the Vandals are undefeated
to date against Rocky Mountain
competition.
Stanford is still an unknown
quantity, but UCLA appears
ready for a strong run at the
title, despite an early season loss
to Santa Clara. The Bruins, as
did their cross-town rivals, USC,
also came up with a pair of easy
wins over Iowa State and Kansas
last weekend.
This leaves only Oregon State
and Washington State in the
going-nowhere category, but even
the Beavers have been showing
some strength of late after put
ting on a pair of dismal per
formances against Utah.
In the WCAC title chase, an
outstanding squad has still yet to
come forward as the odds-on fa
vorite, although St. Mary's is
given the best chance to go all
the way. The Gaels have lost only
one game so' far, a close one to
California, and look to be tho best
bet to end USF's long reign atop
the loop.
The Dons have lost, their last
three grames at their new hilltop
gymnasium, but only by a com
bined total of five points.
