" " Automobile Stunfmen Drive at Fairgrounds Randy Turpin KO's Cockell For New Title LONDON m Belting Randy Turpin, who now owns four box- mg titles in two weight divisions, rested on his laurels Wednesday waiting to see who will fight him for a world championship. Turpin crashed into the light heavyweight ranks Tuesday night with a brilliantly executed 11 round knockout of Don Cockell, The well-earned victory gave him Cockell's British national and British Empire 175-pound crowns to go with the English and Euro- pean middleweight titles he al ready owns. Turpin at 162, was outweighed almost 12 pounds, but was never in trouble against the hard-hitting Cockell. He floored his man for eight in the third round and for counts of six and nine in the eleventh before referee Tommy Little decided it was enough tor the dazed Cockell. Joie Chitwood's collection of fearless humans will gather at the Eugene Fairgrounds Saturday night to offer more than two and one half hours of solid thrills un der the banner of the International Stuntmen's Association and the Chitwood Auto Daredevils.

Hamner Leads All-Star Picks CHICAGO (IP) Granny Ham ner of the Philadelphia Philues has taken a lead on Al Dark of the New York Giants for the starting National League shortstop assign ment in latest tabulations of the All-Star baseball poll. Hamner had registered 10,183 votes from the nation's fans Wednesday while Dark, the 1951 starting choice, had polled 9,852 Hank Sauer, the Chicago Cubs left fielder who tops all major batting marks, continued as the poll's most popular vote-getter with a total of 13,422. Stan Muslal of the St. Louis Cardinals was second with 12,943. The balloting for starting line ups m the All-Star classic at Phil adelphia July 8 began last Friday and will end at midnight June 27. Gene Hermanski, riding high with the batting stars of the sur prising Chicago Cubs, is edging away from his rivals in the battle for the National League's starting right field position.

This one may be th toughest ever, H. F. Everest said in an nouncing that conference officials had voted to hire investigators and tell them to go get erring col leges and athletes. Any college athlete found to have accepted gifts or money will be suspended from conference sports, said Everest, vice presi dent of the University of Wash ington and spokesman for confer ence officials in their annual meeting. THE SCHOOLS themselves in pledges from college presidents have promised to punish anyone involved in giving undue aid to athletes. If caught in severe vio lations, college staff members may be discharged, Everest said. All this stems from an increas ing uneasiness over rumors on the West Coast as well as the rest of the nation that a lively mar ket exists for high school ath letes, and that the athletes are cashing in on it, Everest added. Conference Commissioner Victor Schmidt reported that he did not have the staff necessary to run down rumors. So athletic direc tors and faculty representatives from the nine conference schools voted Tuesday to increase his staff. No limit was placed on the number he may hire. THE OFFICIALS also took ten tative action on basketball and football systems. Basketball coaches voted for a conference wide schedule to replace the pres ent Northern and Southern Divi sions. This would call for each team to play all others twice. Final action was let back at least until December, tor athletic directors said they would have to study the plan. The committee will report in December. The officials voted tentatively to change the football schedule for mula. The proposal Is for all schools to play at least sis confer ence games, witn lauronua schools required to play at least one of them in the Pacific North west. At present they are not re quired to do this. WHENEVER California schools play Washington at Seattle, they also will be asked to play an other team in the Northwest. Idaho games will not count in the minimum of six per season, nor will California schools be required to play Idaho at Moscow. Everest said the committee tnat drew up this plan had representa tives from three California schools, and all approved the plan. Athletic directors will draw up tentative schedules for 19S8 and 1957, the first open years. Maior Leaders XATIONAl. I.EACVE BatHnB Sauer, Chlcsge, Mt feek m&n.
