West coach hits 'cloak -dagger' tactics of pros SAN FRANCISCO (UPI) -Professional football scouts have been asked to avoid cloak-and-dagger luetics in attempting to sign foot- hall players here for the East West game. "Professional scouts and own' crs seem to think the game Is pluycd for their benefit," said West Head Coach Jim Owens of Washington. "There have been a lot of unpleasant incidents in the past. In recent years players have been pestered to death." Owens said he planned to get together with East mentor Joe Kuharich of Notre Dame It estab lish visiting hours for pro scouts. The battle" for players hit fever pitch last year when the Ameri can Football League popped up to fight with the older National Football League for players. Coaches reported that certain scouts called athletes at all hours of the night; badgered Uie grid tiers belorc, after and during practice, and even contacted them while they were at the training tables. Among the players here for the Shrine Gamo who havo not signed wilh any pro club are such men as Heisman Trophy winner Ernie Davis of Syracuse, Utah State's big tackle Morlin 01 iten, San Jose Stale flanker Mack Burton and many others.

From the days of Bill Spaulding in the late'20s, UCLA has coma up witli centers who made their marks both in. West Coast compe tition and nationally. And followers of the Bruins who recall such fabled canters as Homer Oliver, Lee Coals, Johnny Ryland, Leon McLaughlin, Don Paul, and Donn Moomaw can look forward lo the New Year's Day game with the feeling that at center UCLA will be well repre sented. This year Hull's work has been recognized by numerous honors Including selection on the All Coast team and on All America SOUTHERN OREGON WINS ASHLAND (UPD-Urry Eick worth hit a push shot from the corner with 3D seconds left to give Southern Oregon a 47-46 noncon fcrence basketball wia over Chlco State here Wednesday night.

HOCKEY STAR HAS SURGERY PORTLAND (UPII-Arlo Good win, a star on Portland's hockey team, was to undergo surgery to day for torn calf muscles. Goodwin suffered the injury Sundcy night when struck by a puck in Uie game against Edmon ton. He is expected to be out of action two or three weeks. OF The ocean rocks It's down to the fA squads. But the round faced, chunky senior is above all a team player. Playing left linebacker on defense, Hull has developed an un canny knack of knowing where plays are going and being there in time to stop them. Hull played perhaps his greatest game against University of South ern California when the Bruins needed to win if they were to get the Rose Bowl bid. He roamed all over Uie field, backing up every defensive play when it was not his to make. And Coach Bill Barnes showed his confidence in Hull by using him as the starter in every game this season and when the regular schedule had ended he had 350 minutes of playing time to his credit. It took hard work for Hull to become a top center. Three years ago he was so discouraged he al most quit football. He had fallen behind in his studies and as a result he failed to make progress on the practice field that he felt ho should show. But even as a sophomore ho got in 117 minutes of playing time. As a junior he actually saw more action than Harry Baldwin, Uie team's captain who whs an All Coast selection. Hull icceived advice, coaching and inspiration from center coach Dan Peterson who in his UCLA playing days was listed at 165 pounds but really weighed less than 150. "No player ever worked harder to become a top man than Hull." Peterson says. "He made up w ith quickness and smart play for what he lacked in size. He can make defensive corrections on the field as the situation changes during a game." 8 BIG DAYS! RECKLESS ADVENTURERS . CLASHING IN A KINGDOM KILLERS!

"I hope we're farther along, and I think we'U be a lot tougher on our home court." Hudson was hoping that Kla math might experience Uie kind of cold scoring night that Pendle ton suffered in a game last week witli La Grande.

Tulane gave him a five-year contract. O'Boyle, 44, - was All-America while playing guard for Tulane in 1940 and 1941, his junior and sen ior years. He returned to Tulane last spring as line coach and PUney's chief assistant, and has been acting head coach since Pilney's resignation. . Pilney resigned with an alumni group calling for his scalp. He had been on the staff for 16 years. In eight years as head coach, he had only two winning seasons. This year's 2-8 record ended with a 62-0 rout by traditional rival Louisiana State. The alumni group also called for overhauling athletic policy at Tulane. But university president Herbert Longenecker said there would be little change in it. Sev eral of Uie Green Wave's best players have flunked out because of unrelenting adherence to aca demic standards. O'Boyle previously served as line coach at Duke, Miami and Kansas State.
