New Redmond Mentor Working On Fundamentals Special lo The Bulletin REDMOND li s still too early to name a team, or even a tenta tive team, says head football coach Don Campbell of his Redmond high school prospects. An average of 30 men turned out twice daily last week, although around 40 are suited up. He expects average at tendance to be upped when school stalls. With a group of young;, compara tively inexperienced players the emphasis has been on fundamen tals basic blocking, tackling, run ning and on conditioning. They've gone light -on the scrimmage thus tar, but Campbell says the team morale and enthusiasm generally are high. Strongest bidders for any of the positions are Dave McCrea who played quarterback last year, and returning letterman Don iVlcClure, fullback. Karl Schult is showing uo well as a running back and Wilbur Durfee at tackle. A light weight who can really scoot, Camp bell says, is wrestler 120 pound Floyd Bessey. On the other side of the scale are Marcus Gwartney. around 230 pounds, and Randy Jones, over 200. Marc played a lot? of defense last year and is sharpening up some offensive tac tics in addition this year. Among the promising sopho mores who may see several years of football are linemen Keith But terfield and LeRoy Dean, and back Rod Reid. The Panthers first game will be Fijday night at Tillamook. The same evening Prineville goes to Albany, and on Friday, September 10, Redmond and Prineville will meet here for the opening confer ence game for both teams. The 1955 RUHS team will be follow ing one of the school's best sea sons in many years. Last year the Pasnhers ended with a six win, twg loss record, defeating Sweet llolne, Crater High, Burns, Mad ras, John Day, and Bend, the lat ter in a game that turned a long, long tide. Redmond lost to Prine ville by two points, 14-12, and to Lakeview 23-6. Florists Edged In 1-0 Thriller !

His opponent would be feather weight Bobby Bell of Washington, D.C. Courchesne was an 11-5 under dog against highly touted Puleo of Brooklyn, but he proved such an excellent boxer-puncher that all three ring officials had him ahead when the fight was stopped at 1:29 of the ninth round. Referee Harry Ebbets would not let Puleo continue because he was bleeding so profusely from cuts on his left brow and on his head above the left ear. The brow-cut required eight stitches; that on the head, six. The technical knockout was the first kayo suffered by 23-year-old Sonny in his 16 professional bouts, It was his fourth defeat. Manager Pat Bartlett said he can't decide about the Bell figh: until he gets more details about a proposed scrap with ex-challenger Red Top Davis at Montreal next ? month.

UCLA Selected Top Coast Team The Saturday Evening Past's 16rh annual "Pigskin Preview' to day picked U.C.L.A. to win the Pacific Coast . Conference cham pionship, with Southern California as runner-up. Veteran sports editor Fred Rus sell, who made the selections, gave both of these elevens national re cognition by including them in his listing of the twenty top college teams in the country. He predicts that Oklahoma will be the Nation's strongest gridiron machine, followed by U.C.L.A., Michigan,, Rice, Navy, Army, Maryland, Georgia Tech, West Virginia, Ohio State, Minnesota, Kentucky, Southern California, Au burn, Miami, Notre Dame, Wis consin, S.M.U., Duke and Baylor, in that order. NWTeanis Weak Commenting on the Pacific Coast Conference, Russell says it is twice unbalanced: the Northwest teams' are no match for the California teams, and the Northern Californ ia teams are fast losing ground to the Southern California teams, that prospects are that the championship buttle will again be within the Los Angeles city limits. Stanford, California, Washington State, Washington, Oregon, Oregon btate. College of Pacific, San Jose State and Idaho are called above- average in the area. Fullback Bob Davenport, of U.C.L.A., is found to be the main spring of his team's overpowering single-wing offense and he Is se lected on Russell's All-American, which lines up as follows: 2 Sailors Named Ends, Ron Beagle, Navy, and Ron Kramer, Michigan; tackles, Eddie Raybum, Rice, and Bruce Bosley, West Virginia; guards, Calvin Jones, Iowa, and Bo Bo! Inger, Oklahoma; center. Bob Pel- legrlni, Maryland: backs, George welsn, Navy, Howard Cassady, Ohio State, Joe Childress, Auburn, and Davenport. Russell says all college elevens are likely to be stronger th'". rea son because the material eveiy where is getting better. Bruins End Initial Week Of Workouts The Bend Lava Bears, 1955 ver sion, climaxed their first week of daily double football practice with an hour long scrimmage Saturday afternoon. The emphasis was on offense as Tom Winbigler got the, first good look nt his squad under actual game conditions. The new boss was highly pleased with the scrimmage. "We have 48 out now and would like to keep every one of them," reports Winbigler. "Everyone out has a place on our team in one way or another. Of course we'd like to pick up a few more play ers, he added hopefully. Everyone got a chance Saturday but the first unit consisted mostly of lettermen since they boast more experience and have come along faster than some of the new comers. Ron Anderson and Ro land Coleman opened at ends. with Fred Stoinhauser and Casey Rugglcs at tackle, Butch Haw thorne and Bill St. John at guards, Butch Cruickshank and Denny Thompson at center. Denny 01 sen, converted half back, started at quarterback, but Coleman and Stan Williams, soph omore prospect, also took their turns. Gary Gentry, Norman Pease and Don Moss were at halves, and Shelby Blevins, Grant Davis and Pat Feser packed the mail fullback. Another blow to the squad came when Larry Lermo, swift half back, was forced to turn in hisi uniform because of an old injury. The track letterman had caught Winbigler's eye in the early drills, , and was due for plenty of action this full. His Freedom Short-Lived By MARC E.
