EUGENE REGISTER-GUARD, Friday, Sept. 21, 1962 Page 7B F,,3BTV'a8aglana8f Wills Says He Could Have Stolen Another 20 Bases ST. LOUIS (A-Maury Wills of the Los Angeles Dodgers says all be can think about "are the 20 or so bases I could have stolen early in the season." Wills must steal three bases in tonight's game between the Dodgers and the St. Louis Cardinals to break Ty Cobb'i modern record of 96 stolen bases in a 154-game schedule. "If I had tried hard at the beginning of. the season I could have more than 100 stolen bases now," said Wills. "I know of at least 20 bases I could have had. "That's all I can think about now the bases I could have had." Wills was disheartened when he learned Thursday that baseball commissioner Ford Frick said Wills would have to steal 97 bases in the first 154 games to be officially credited with breaking Cobb's record. Wills said Cobb had 156 games in 1915 in which to set his mark because two con tests ended in ties and had to be replayed. "What was good enough for Cobb is good enough for me," Wills said. "All this time I've been under the im pression that it was 156 games." Wills said he thought be could steal at least one base in each of the three games with the Cardinals, enough to better Cobb's mark in 156 games. "As far as I'm concerned I might as well forget trying to break Ty Cobb's record for stolen bases. He said he has stolen three bases in one game many times, but doubted if he could do that tonight. Wills spent Thursday in his hotel room resting and letting his bruised legs mend. "I'm bruised up from sliding and fouling off some balls that hit me on the legs. That's where it hurts," he said. Frick said Thursday, "The commissioner's office takes the same decision it took last year in the Ruth -Maris case. Cobb's record is based on a 154-game schedule." Roger Maris had 59 home runs through 154 games for the New York Yankees last year and finished the 162-game season with 61. Frick ruled that Maris had to break Ruth's record of 60 home runs in the first 154 games scheduled to avoid an asterisk after the record indicating that it was set in a 162-game schedule. Predicting the Pros Cards Over Packers! By JACK CLARY Of the Associated Press NEW YORK One of the great uncertainties of the space age is not only who will win the race to the moon, but who will win the weekend's pro football games. Let's hope the moonmen have better luck than the pro football pickers, particularly after last week's opening salvo of 4 right, S wrong and 1 tie sounded like wet firecracker. The picks: National Football League St. Louis over Green Bay The blue plate special. Cards' John David Crow showed he is healthy again and that adds two more barrels to St. Louis' al ready potent attack. Defense should prove strong enough to catch Packers down a bit after easy win over Minnesota, de spite efforts of halfback Paul Hornung. Cleveland over Washington Browns' duo of Jimmy Brown and Tom Wilson have added new dimension to Cleveland's attack, and passing of quarter back Jim Ninowski should be much better than against Giants last week since 'Skins defense showed many holes. New York over Philadelphia Giants proved too strong of defense for Eagles in final ex- Marshfield, Medford Vie In Top Game By ASSOCIATED PRESS Two highly regarded teams, Medford and Marshfield, meet tonight in a non-league game that tops in interest a heavy weekend schedule of Oregon high school football games. Marshfield is the favorite for the District 5-A-l championship this year. Medford is a co favorite with Grants Pass in the Southern Oregon Conference. Grants Pass, which knocked off defending - state champion Roseburg last week, plays North Bend. Roseburg will be host to Springfield. Beaverton, state runner-up to Roseburg last year, meets As toria in a Metropolitan League game. Wilson will test Jefferson, the defending Portland Interscholas tic League titlist, Saturday. North Salem, 1961 Valley League champion, meets South Eugene of District 5-A-l tonight while South Salem will be at Klamath Falls. Pendleton of the Intermoun tain Conference will be host to Boise while Hermiston plays at Moses Lake, Wash. Mercury Adds New Models to Meteor, Comet Lines Wider Range of Styles, Options Available in Both Series for '63 Seven new models have been added to the Meteor and Comet lines of Mercury cars for 1963, scheduled for display at dealer ships Oct. 4. In the Meteor series, five new models have been added this year two hardtops and three station wagons bringing th total number to seven. Initially, a year ago, only two body stylet were offered a two-door and a four-door sedan.

The bay colt, under the mas terful handling of 35-year-old Stanley Dancer, overcame bad racine luck and won Thursday's 17th annual Little Brown Jug for three-year-old pacers with two great stretch drives. The speedy son of Adios-Lu-cine Hanover pocketed $27,764 for his pair of miles the first in 1:58 4-5 and the second in 1:59 3-5 over the lightning-fast Delaware County Fairgrounds twice-around. That boosted his 1062 earn ings to S140.500 and his 2-year total to $191,735 for the Lehigh Stable of New Egypt, N.J., own ed by Dancer and three others.

Steelers' picked apart by Milt Plums' passes last week and may not have full service from rookie fullback Bob Ferguson. Detroit over San Francisco That Lions' defense is ruthless while Plum's passing attack has good complement in rushing of fullback Nick Pietrosante. 49ers showed they couldn't handle Bears rushing last week, and didn't have to worry about pass er of Plum's ability. Los Angeles over Chicago Even without Jon Arnett, the Rams improved defense and overall backfield and end talent is ready to burst loose. Bears fullback Rick Casares, star of last week's victory, is hobbled and may not play. Baltimore over Minnesota Colts still not sound ball club with lack of power runner, but quarterback John Unitas still lias that passing magic and will find Vikings softened up a bit after their game against Green Bay. American Football League Boston over Denver Tonight, the Broncos' Cinderella act in the American Football League will close after two victories when they go against Patriots' tough defense that shackled Houston's all-around offense last week. Buffalo over New York-Bills' all-around strength still too much for still-getting-organized Titans, who may need another game to get used to quarter back Lee Grosscup. Houston over San Diego With Chargers' quarterback Jack Kemp suffering from broken finger on passing hand and halfback Paul Lowe still out, Houston's defense won't have great worries and their of fense still has great passing of George Blanda. Dallas over Oakland Cotton Davidson's over-all knowledge of his old mates offensive and defensive habits won't make much difference to speedy Texans, whose Abner Hayncs and new quarterback Len Daw son give solid 1-2 punch. DETROIT (jPi If you're buy ing a new car it will pay you to read carefully what the manu facturer savs about changing oil. The figures, and advice, prob ably are different from what you have been accustomed to, especially If your present car is as much as three years old. The oil change intervals have been getting longer. But they have also become more compli cated. Some makes carry a flat mile age interval, but most combine a time and mileage period. The mileage varies from 4,000 to 6,000 miles on domestic cars. The time intervals run from two to six months.

Groups Ask Enforcement KANSAS CITY Wl College football's rules makers, coaches and conference commissioners Friday started a campaign for strict enforcement of rules against rough play to help re duce injuries. In a joint statement, the NCAA football rules committee, the American Football Coaches Association and the National Association of Collegiate Com missioners called for strict ap plication of the "use of fore arm" and "piling on" rules, plus an education campaign by coaches to instruct and disci pline players against rough play. H. O. "Fritz" Crislcr, Michi gan athletic director and chair man of the NCAA football rules committee, and William D. Mur ray, Duke coach and president of the coaches association, sign ed the statement. It referred to i similar plea several years ago to eliminate the practice of feigned injuries and was termed another appeal to the head coaches to enlist their full force of influence to rid our game of inexcusable and malicious play." It asked the coaches to pro tect their players from "bru tality which will only lead to tragic incidents and rules changes none of us will like." Key Word In Tariff Bill Is 'Bargain' By SAM DAWSON Of the AssuclaUd Press NEW YORK The world's tariff walls won't come tumbling down overnight. As Congress puts the finishing touches on a sweeping grant of powers to the President to work toward freer trade, the key word today still is bargaining. The President will have pow er to bargain with the Common Market and England and Japan. The goal is to lower, perhaps abolish in time, their tariffs or quotas or other restrictions on the admission of American goods. In return the bargain would include similar lowering of barriers or penalties in this country on the admission of for eign goods. Such bargaining is usually a long, slow process. It can go on, industry by industry, item by item, for many months or even for years. Tariffs are only one of the walls that nations raise against others' goods. After the war, most European nations put strict quotas on the amount of American goods, item by item, that could enter. They also im posed currency restrictions yiat made it hard or impossible for an American manufacturer to get his money back in dollars or other currencies. Quotas and currency barriers have been falling steadily in recent years. But some still re main. The United States In turn has many trade barriers still. These range from strict quotas and al lotments on importation of sugar, to tariffs that can be raised when domestic manufac turers show they are being hurt by foreign imports. This provi sion, though modified, is still in the bill. Also, we have trade agree ments with some countries whereby they send only a cer tain volume of particular prod ucts, to leave a major percent age of the market to American industry. Both the United States and the Common Market have plenty on which to bargain. What Congress is giving the President is the power to do this bargaining, more power than his predecessors ever had. The expectation is that the Com mon Market and others will see enough advantages to them selves in freer trade to reach agreement with the United States along these lines. If all sides are the gainers, the result ing greater economic health of the non-Communist nations will weigh heavily in any future con flict with the Reds. The very fact that the Presi dent will have power to make such deals will make the Com mon Market more willing to en ter Into bargaining sessions. But in every case the special interest of various American industries and agriculture will remain. Many trade barriers, therefore, may be slow in com ing down, or may be lowered only gradually. The President's triumph In getting these powers is unques tioned. But the final bargains may be some distance away and far from being a sure bet either on our side or the Com mon Market side. erage car still is driven slightly less than 1,000 miles per month, the oil change may be due even when the accumulated mileage is quite low. All of this has caused increas ing concern to the American Petroleum Institute. The API and the auto manufacturers don't see entirely eye to eye. On the whole the API is more conservative. Not too many years ago the petroleum industry told you to change oil every 1,000 miles. Several years ago this became every 60 days in summer, every 30 days in winter but never ex ceeding every 2,000 miles. The up-to-date API pitch re tains the 30 and 60 day limits but has dropped the 2,000 mile interval in favor of this word ing: "Never exceed the car manufacturer's recommendation for the driving conditions pre vailing." The importance of these rec ommendations by the manufac turer was brought home recent ly when Chrysler Corp. ampli fied its new extended warranty plan. This covers the engine, transmission, differential and rear axle of all 1963 Chrysler products for five years or 50,000 miles. In explaining the fine points of the program, Chrysler vice president Harry Chesebrough said the one significant main tenance operation required of the car owner to keep the war ranty in effect was to change the oil on schedule. For 1962 the standard inter val between oil changes was 4,000 miles for all companies except Ford. Ford recommend ed 6,000 miles. For 1963 there is more vari ation. Chrysler says 4,000 miles or two months, which might make it nearer to every 2,000 miles for the average driver. General Motors has moved gen erally to 6,000 miles or 60 days. In practice this, too, will end up being about every 2,000 miles. American Motors says every 4,000 miles under normally fav orable conditions. Studcbakcr recommends the same and Ford has the longest interval of all 6,000 miles or six months. One of the major oil com panies will announce next week a super premium oil which it says was formulated especially to meet these longer service periods. Co., also are offering numerous mechanical and styling changes for 1963. All models are said to require major lubrication at in tervals of 36,000 miles. For the Meteor series, that's an increase of 6,000 miles over last year; for the Comet, it's up from a 1,000-mile interval. The Meteor features new op tions and accessories, and better engine -transmission character istics. The style of the Comet has been maintained from last year, with appearance changes in grill, rear ornamentation and taillights. The Meteor shows a new grill, swept-back taillights and a wider selection of styles, colors and materials for inte riors. The standard engine for the Meteor continues to be six cyl inders, offering 101-horsepower. It has a new carburetor and new hydraulic valve lifters. Two lightweight V-8 engines are availab'n in the Meteor series as options. For the Comci class, two six cylinder engines both im proved to run more quietly and efficiently are offered this year. An improved carburetor is designed to make both Comet engines attain new levels of smoothness and performance. Offered in the Comet series are two-door and four-door se dans and station wagons in standard and custom classes; two convertibles in custom and S-22 series; an S-22 two-door sedan, and the Villager station wagon. Redesigned bucket seats on the S 22 models have an ad ditional Vi-inch of foam pad ding. 8,871 Arrests Made in July SALEM UV-The State Police Department reported Friday it had made 5,651 arrests for hazardous traffic violations dur ing July.
