Civil War
Clashes Set
Br UNITED PRESS
"Civil war" clashes highlight
the Northern Division basketball
play this weekend with Washing
ton's champions meeting Wash
ington State at Seattle and Ore
gon playing a home and home
aeries with Oregon State. .
The outcome of the Washing
ton-Washington State s e r 1 e
won't affect the standings but
. Oregon could tie for second place
with a clean sweep over Oregon
State. Second-place Idaho has
completed its season's play.
Fight followers here are look
ing forward especially to the
Connie Mann-Roy Marshall fight
in the featherweight division.
Mann in his fight in Roseburg
kayoed Jack Mills, a stablemate
of Marshall.
Another thriller, according to
Jimmy Zack, assistant boxing in
structor, will be the heavyweight
scrap between Medford's Jerry
Jennings and Mike Coleman.
These boys fought a "pier 6"
brawl in their first encounter in
Roseburg. Both boys have been
begging for a rematch and this
can be billed practically as a
grudge battle.
One of the newer additions to
Jennings' stable is middleweight
Pat Viles, who goes against Rose
burg's Percy Pendergast. Young
Viles is considered one of the out
standing prospects of the Med
ford group because of his tremen
dous punching power.
Proceeds from the fights will
be used to purchase athletic
equipment.' Tickets are on sale at
Lamports, Sam's Sporting Goods,
the YMCA, Barker's Men's Store,
Brown's Club, or from any mem

Bruins Favored
In South League
San Francisco (U.R) Pacific
Coast conference basketball
starts its final series Friday
night with the Bruins of, UCLA
favored to capture the southern
division crown and face Wash
ington, northern division
champs, in the playoffs.
The Bruins host USC over the
week-end while California hosts
Stanford Friday night and. faces
the Indians on their court Sat
urday night.
UCLA has a six and four rec
ord and needs only one victory
to leave California and Stan
ford battling for second place.
Cal is currently tied with Stan
ford for the second spot, each
with a five and five record.
USC is in the cellar with four
wins and six losses.
If California and Stanford
should split their series and
USC win a, pair - from UCLA,
the race would end up in a
four-way tie. The fact is highly
improbable as UCLA wins the
biggest percentage of its games.
School Children Live
In Era of Confusion
Albany, N. Y. (U.R) A prom
inent educator believes school
children are living in an era of
"intellectual confusion" because
of unsettled world conditions.
Dr. Evan R. Collins, president
of the New York State College
for Teachers,, points to the
"good old days" when "a war
meant a war."
"Today," he adds, "our school
children understand a war by
degrees. To them a war is a cold
war, a hot war or a shooting war,
and peace doesn't mean pros
perity; war does.
"Today they don't understand
democracy - as in the good old
days. Today, democracy is quali
fied as an economic or social or
political democracy."
He says "the climate of intel
lectual confusion" makes it nec
essay for pupils to be taught in
terms of relating their studies
to the whole world picture.
WOMEN CLEAN UP

Seattle (U.R) A civil aero
nautics board order grounding
airlines low cost coach service
