0 OSU bops Co 58-50 By Jamei P. Cour UPI IteH Writer PORTLAND. Ore. (UPI)-Ore-gon State's improving Beavers meet Iowa in an attempt to win their seventh straight Far West Classic basketball championship her tonight. The Beavers, led by football star Terry Baker, defeated Cali fornia 53-50 and the Hawkeyes rolled over Oregon 62-48 in the semifinal of the four-day, eight team' seventh annual tournament Friday might. California and Oregon battle for third place in the tourney to night. Seattle faced Arizona for fourth place and Idaho battled Washington State for seventh spot Orange Bowl tilt to feature top winning coaches By Oscar Fralty UPI Staff Wrlttr MIAMI (UPI) - Alabama and Oklahoma are propping today to square off in the Orange Bowl on New Year's Day and it's part of the intriguing setup of the contest that seldom could you find such widely different directors of foot ball destiny. Bud Wilkinson, the Oklahoma coach, Is an aesthetic appearing Lochlnvar,.wlth wide-spaced blue eyes whose most explosive exple tive Is "Gee whiz." i Paul (Bear) Bryant, his Ala' bama counterpart, lives up to his nickname. He is a burly, craggy man with a vitriolic tongue who looks as. if .he could bite a nail in half. Don't bet against it, either. Wilkinson, in commenting on one of his players, could be expected to say that he Is an exception ally fine youngster." Bryant's fa vorite phrase is an all-encompassing "he's nice to his momma and poppa," and you can take that as praise or scorn. Strain a point, and you could say that Wilkinson's players would die for him. Strain another, and you could say that Bryant's might have to. But they do have one thing in common. Both of them are winners: Big winners. The old song about "Stars Fell On Alabama" could be Bryant's theme song, except for the fact that he's been a lot of places and, wherever that happened to be, stars cropped up with amazing regularity. But If you think "Ok lahoma" was a long-run hit musi cal, take a gander at Wilkinson's football teams and admit that, football players, too, grow "as high as an elephant's eye," and brother Bud ain't a'hind the door when they're passed out Accept the fact that, as Eddie Arcaro could well tell you, no body wins without the horses. You get 'cm, you run. Don't get 'cm, stay home or accept your role as a loser. " Bryant and Wilkinson get 'em. The whip-cracking Bryant, an end on the unbeaten Alabama team which beat Stanford in ihe 1943 Rose Bowl, was a lieutenant commander in World War II. Wil kinson was a hangar deck officer on the aircraft carrier Enterprise in action at Iwo Jima, Tokyo and Okinawa. Prior to that he played for Minnesota football, golf and ice hockey. Bryant In 18 years has won 130, lost 47 and tied 13. Wilkinson In 16 years has won 131, lost 25 and tied four. Bryant, as a Upoif on his annual excel lenca has coached seven bowl teams with three wins, three loss es and a lie. Wilkinson has the same number, hinting that behind his modest exterior uiere s heart of gold, too. He's won six, nd lost one to Ulis same Dry ant H" Uie 1950 Sugar Bowl at New Orleans. The Bear specializes In derrick- ing have-nots out of the hole. In two years at Texas A&M ho took them from a one win, nine lost season to the Southwest Confer ence championship. Then as he put it he went back to save mother." That meant his alma mater. Alabama had lost 24 games in three years against four wins. Since one Year in which he put them on the profit side, he has hnd them in four straight howls with a mythical na tlonal title to boot. Has Similar Background Wilkinson has a similar bark ground. His Oklahoma teams won 31 in a tow from '48 through 50. Then they set a pair of na tional records with 47 straight from '51 through '57 and sco. i.ig in 123 straight from '47 through '57. He has won three national championships and, at one point, captured 12 Big Eight Conference championships in a row. There is a growing feeling In Colleges, long overdue, which con tends that football players should earn ' more than lumps, house maids' knees and professional grid contracts. Oklahoma boasts that of its starting 11, two each are studying business and me chanical engineering while the rest are teaming management, i pre-denllstry, architecture, science pre-nwd, pro-law and accounting.

Snow Ball Dance Pilot Butte Inn Dec 29 9 Until 12 Come At You Are Sponsored by the Skyllners New York pro grid fans hit by NFL 'blackout' NEW YORK (UPI) - It'll be S. R. O. sorry, radio only for Now York sports fans who don't hold tickets to Yankee Sta dium but who want to follow Sun day's National Football League championship game between the Green Bnv Packers and New York Giants. A federal judge Friday upheld the NFL's blackout TV policy whon he refused to lift the local television ban on the game. Judge Edward Weinfeld held that relief from such restrictions should come from Congress and not from Uie courts. The game thus will be blacked out, as originally planned, within a 75-mile radius of New York City but it will be broadcast over radio beginning at 2 p.m. EST. The radio broadcast will actually be the only way New York fans will learn about the game because all nine of New York's metropoli tan newspapers are on strike. Three Long Island petitioners claimed that Uie local TV black out of Die game violated anti trust laws nnd named tho NFL, the Giants and tho Nation;) Broadcasting Company as defend ants. Sen. Thomas J. Dodd, D-Conn , a member of Uie Senate anti monopoly subcommittee, said tlie TV blackout is "needless and an arbitrary violation of Uie public interest." Ho said he plans to draw up an amendment to the anti-trust laws which would pre vent such blackouts. Some New Yorii fans, mean while, will journey to such points as Stratford, Conn., and Philadel phia, just outside Uie 75-milc blackout radius, to watch Uie game. The best ever!

DKhutt, Rtdmond 5412782 Lombard! evasive Hornung perfect', but still mystery NEW YORK (UPI) - Coach Vince Lombardl of Uie Green Bay Y ackers pronounced Paul Horn ung in "perfect" condition today and then deepened Uie mys tery surrounding his star halfback by refusing to say whether he would start Sunday against Uie New iork Giants. Lombardi's uncertainty or evasiveness about Hornung, who scored a record 19 points in last year's 37-0 Packer rout at Green Bay, left observers some what baffled on Uie eve of the National Football League cham pionship game. "How's Hornung?" was the first quesUon shot at Lombard! Friday as he was collared for a news conference a few hours after his Packers had arrived by plane from Green Bay. "Perfect," Lombardl replied with a big smile. But then, when he was asked whether Hornung would start on Sunday, Uie Packer coach an swered: "I'll know better at game time." Why the uncertainty? "Well, the other boy (Tom Moore) has been playing most of the season and doing a good job." Wul it depend on Uie condition of the field? "No, it will depend upon how I feel and how he (Hornung) feels just before game time." Hornung,- player-of-the-year in Uie NFL last year, has missed more Uian half of the present sea son because of a knee injury. Mooro has done an excellent job replacing him. While Lombardl left his listen ers mildly bewildered, there were no such doubts about Uie senti ments of chipper Al Sherman of Uie Giants. After putUng the Giants through a 48-minute morning workout at Yankee Stadium, Sherman said his team is in such good shape Uiat "I don't have an alibi to rest on." The Giants all were healthy and Sherman reiterated that his team was in much bet ter condition, physically and men tally, than prior to Uie 1961 game in Green Bay. Both teams were scheduled to go through light workouts today at Uie stadium, Uie Packers in CLUB PICKS WHITE WASHINGTON (IIP!) The Washington Touchdown Club has selected Supreme Court JusUce Byron H.

However, a revised forecast predicted a chance of snow turning to rain late tonight with gradual clearing Sunday. The temperature at game time is expected to be in Uie mid-30's. When Lombard! was asked whether he preferred a dry or a wet field, he replied: "I don't care. I just hope it's as good as our field last year." id stars to test unknowns TUCSON, Ariz. (UPI) Top athletes of small colleges, led by Jackson (Miss.) State's Willie Richardson, were gunning for their first victory tonight against their counterparts from major colleges in the All-America Bowl football game. A crvAvd of more than 12,000 was expected to be on hand to see whether arbitrary definiUons proved anything. The so - called small college squad has yet to come through with a victory In five tries. But Uie major college stars may find their five-year domi nance at an end. Spearheading the small college attack are quar terbacks Jon Ababo of Fresno State and Ron Giordano of Buck nell.
