MEDFORIfcTRIBU!IB siPCDimrs UCLA, Buckeyes, Sooners Favored To Stay Unbeaten By FRED DOWN United Press Sports Writer Ohio State, UCLA, and Okla homa are favored to maintain their perfect records and clinch conference titles in Saturday's big games but only the Buckeyes can win gold as well as glory. The next-to-last big week end of college football activity kicks off tonight with Miami (Fla.) a 12Vi-point pick to defeat Ala bama and end the Crimson Tide's last hope of obtaining a post-season bowl bid. A crowd of at least 80,000 in addition to a national television audience will see Ohio State's Buckeyes attempt to clinch the Big Ten title and a probable bid to the Rose Bowl when they take on Michigan at Columbus, O. Ohio State is rated a 12-point favorite on the strength of eight straight victories in tough com petition but the Wolverines have - won six games and lost only to ' Army and Indiana. UCLA and Oklahoma, the na tion's only other unbeaten and untied major college elevens, also are strong favorites but both are ineligible for bowls because they played in them last Jan. 1. UCLA Favored UCLA has been installed as a 13-point favorite to complete perfect campaign but could be in for trouble against a Southern California team which is out to prove it actually merits the Pa cific Coast Conference's Rose Bowl invitation. Southern Cal ifornia will go to the "biggest of the bowls" regardless of the re sults because of UCLA's ineligibility. Oklahoma, which hasn't lost a Big Seven Conference game since Bud Wilkinson's regime be gan in 1947, is a lop-sided 20- point choice over Nebraska. The Cornhuskers could become the conference's representative in the Orange Bowl if they upset Oklahoma. Southern Methodist, conquerer of previously unbeaten Arkan sas, and slightly battered Yale also figure in important games. ; SMU, battling to stay in the Southwest Conference race and win a bid to the Cotton Bowl, faces a "must" game when it takes on Baylor. The Mustangs are rated four-point choices but Arkansas, which plays LSU in a non-league game, automatical ly clinches the title if Baylor wins. Ivy League Classic Yale, beaten by Army and Princeton on v successive week ends, hopes to bounce back and finally clinch the Ivy group title with a victory over Harvard in their 71st renewal In other games involving na tional powers, Notre Dame is a six - point pick over powerful Iowa; Len Dawson and Purdue are rated 10 points over Indiana; Illinois is six over Northwestern; Wisconsin seven over Minnesota; Michigan State 14 over Mar quette and Missouri 21 over Kansas. Floyd Patterson Choice in Bout New York J0J.PJ Floyd Pat terson, 1 9 - year - old Brooklyn light heavyweight contender, is favored at 8-5 to beat Jimmy Slade, New York state heavy weight champion, in their eight- round fight tonight at Madison Square Garden. An impressive victory could earn fifth-ranked Patterson con sideration as a potential chal lenger for the 175-pound crown, although neither he nor Mana ger Gus D'Amato is in a rush for a title shot. Because of Floyd's youth, to night's nationally televised and broadcast bout will be limited to eight rounds. A boxer must be at least 20 to go 10 rounds in New York state. Slade coincidentally is ranked fifth among the world's heavy weight contenders. Friday. November 19. 19S4 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE THIRTEEN Red Raiders Host To OTI On Saturday at Ashland So smooth it leaves you breathless Ashland Southern Oregon college concludes its football sea son here Saturday in an import ant Oregon Collegiate Confer ence conflict with Oregon Tech nical institute. The winner will grab a share of the conference championship. Game time is 2 p.m Oregon College of Education has already clinched a tie for the loop diadem. Should SOC and OTI knot in .their struggle, the Wolves of OCE will have sole claim to the mantle. Southern Oregon's Red Raid ers of the Rogue were very near ly back to full strength this week. However, they likely lack the services of their first string quarterback most of the way against the Owls and amount of action the first string left half back will see is a matter of speculation. Quarterback Bill Seymour has been crippled by a knee injury. He hadn't been out for practice through four days this week and, if he does play, it likely will be only in spots. Jim Wright is the probable starting quarterback. . While the Raiders have ad justed to the loss of Seymour, they'll be less prepared for pos sible absence of Halfback Glen Nelson, who hurt a back muscle while running in practice this week. Nelson has responed to treatment but, if he's not quite ready, it'll be Dave Love or Ron Moore opening at left half. Crippen At OTI LeRoy Springer likely will be at right half and Ralph Perkins at fullback. Len Heston will be back on the squad for the first time in several weeks but prob- ably will miss the honor of start ing a his old fullback spot. In trie line the probables are Dick Chapman, center; Tom Quinowski and John Garrett, guards; Morris Jiminez and Ken Stobie, tackles and Chuck Cran dall and Roy Leake, ends. Herb Colley, a regular tackle, has bruised shoulder, but may play some. Doug Pennington, a guard; out of action two weeks ago be cause oi a puuea Acnuies xen don, is slated for some duty this week. Oregon Tech's roster included several boys from the Rogue River valley. Among them are Doug Crippen, ex-Medford high back, who last year played at Southern Oregon. Others are Chuck Eccleston, ex-Eagle Point, and Bob King, ex-Crater. They were backs in high school, but are listed as ends on the Owl roster. Dick Blevins, ex-Grants Pass, is a tackle. " While OTI has Crippen who once played for SOC, the Raiders have Perkins and Back Shrum from the Owls. Perkins won two letters at'OTI. mirnoff tfte artakst name "VODKA 80 proof Made from 1 00 grain neutral spirics. Sie. Pierre SmirnoS Fls. Inc.Hirrford.Coan. Martinez Bribe Attempt Probed New York (U.R) The two- state investigation into the latest attempt fight-fix centered today on "youngish racket guys" who wager on boxing bouts. Welterweight contended Vince Martinez, who was offered $20,000 dive-bribe, narrowed the field of investigation by his state ment that the two fixers appar ently were "youngish racket guys," who live in New York. Two district attorneys, Frank Hogan of New York and Donald G. Collester of Passaic County, N. J., continued their investiga tion of the narrowed field as they sought to identify the pair who had offered Martinez "twen ty grand" in Patterson, N. J. to lose his last fight to Carmen Fiore in Madison Square Gar den, Oct. 29. Martinez of Patterson refused the bribe and stopped Fiore in the seventh round. ' 0 .

PHONE 2-5336 or 2-5897 McCarthy Spends Restful Night Washington (U.R) Sen. Joseph R. McCarthy had a "quiet night and rested comfortably" at the Bethesda Naval Hospital where he is being treated for an injured elbow, hospital authori ties said today. .... ' The Wisconsin Republican en tered the hospital Wednesday at the height of a Senate debate on whether he should be censurd. The Senate, after hearing a re port on McCarthy's ailment from its own physician, decided yes terday to recess until Nov. 29 to give McCarthy time to recover. The physician, Dr. George W. Calver, who examined McCarthy at the request of Senate leaders, reported McCarthy has "a lacera- j tion of the skin and soft tissue about the right elbow with con siderable swelling and some pain about the joint and running Doctors Devise Artificial Kidney Designed To Purify Human Blood San Francisco (U.R) Doctors at Stanford University Hospital have a new life saving device at their command an artificial kidney that uses common butch er's sausage casings to purify human blood. Developed at the university's research institute in nearby Palo Alto, the wondrous machine was installed yesterday and is ready for practical use. Dr. Henry M. Weyrauch, head of Stanford's Urology Division, said the machine was built with a $50,000 grant from the late Norman W. Churchill of Los Angeles. Weyrauch said the "kidney" saves lives by removing body poisons and waste products from the patient's blood stream when his own kidneys are unable to do the job. When the patient's own kid neys stop functioning for one reason or another, Weyrauch said, it causes a slow and deadly poisoning known as uremia, 'Blood Waihtr Actually, the artificial kidney is nothing more than a "blood washer," the scientist said, Ship Collision Being Investigated New York The Coast Guard began an investigation today into the collision of two freighters in the East river last night. The 1740-ton Panamanian ship Lake Charles reached the Man hattan shore after the accident before it sank, bow first, in 25 feet of water. The other vessel, the Japanese freighter Marinsan Maru con tinued to the National Sugar Re fining . Company dock in Long Island City, on the opposite shore. The ship was badly dam aged in the' forward sections. None of the 54 crewmen aboard both vessels was injured. The crew of the Lake Charles was taken ashore by ladders from the ship's deck to the river sea-wall. The two freighters collided during a light rain storm. The skipper of the Japanese vessel said there had been some con fusion about signals just before the crash. down into the fingers." McCarthy's elbow was cut on glass table top when he acci- dently was pushed forward by a large crowd at a Milwaukee meeting. He explained that when a phy sician has decided the "kidney" is needed, a plastic tube is in serted into an artery and the pa tient's heart pumps blood onto the machine's revolving two-foot wire mesh drum. Here the blood travels through about 200 feet of celephone tub ing wrapped around the drum. This tubing is identical with that used for "hot dogs" casings having just the right porousness to permit the poisons and wastes to seep through its walls while holding the good blood inside. . The bottom of the drum, Wey rauch said, is immersed in a bath which contains the same chemi cals normally found in blood. And as the blood travels around the drum, propelled through the tubing by gravity, impurities are drawn into the chemicals by os motic pressure. Emergency Measure Then, when the blood Is thor oughly "washed," it is pumped back into the patient's circula tory system through another plastic tube, he said. This patient and machine cleansing operation can be main tained as long as 12 or 14 hours, Weyrauch said, although half that time -is usually enough to complete the job. Stanford doctors were quick to point out that the machine is intended as an emergency meas ure rather than standard treat ment. It will be used as a standby during temporary kidney fail ure and will be used only when normal kidney function fails to return to the patient after a reasonable length of time. The doctors said also that the ma- Mofel Convention Reports are Heard Reports on a recent Oregon State Motel association conven tion held at Bend were given during a meeting of the Jackson County Motor Court and Trailer association held at the Medford hotel Wednesday.

Hermann Field Leaves Warsaw By Plane for Neutral Switzerland Zurich, Switzerland (U.R) Hermann Field, 44, left Warsaw by plane today for neutral Switzerland, the first of the vanishing Field family to re turn fro five mysterious years behind the Iron Curtain. A man who resembled the for mer Cleveland architect step ped off a Swiss airplane here when it arrived from Prague today. Correspondents at Zurich Air port were doublechecking to identify the man who was be lieved to be Field, but Swiss po lice were holding newsmen back from the airport apron on re quest of the U.S. Embassy In Bern. Wife Leaves London Field's wife, Kate, flew here from London last night in a sud den move that indicated an early reunion with her husband. She. went into seclusion, aided by U.S. consular officials who screened her from newsmen. Hermann Field was released from a Polish prison camp four weeks ago after serving five years "unjust Imprisonment." He has spent that four weeks re cuperating in a sanitarium out side Warsaw. - - His brother, Noel, SO, and Noel's wife, Herta, 50, were re leased this week by Hungarian Communists after five . years "unjust imprisonment." They remained in Budapest to recover from the ordeal. Want to Get Well . U. S. Minister Christian Ravn- dal said today Noel and Herta have no plans to leave Commu nist Hungary until they regain their health. The Fields plan for the Im mediate future is to get their health back, and only after that will they think about what to do next," Ravndal said. Ravndal met the couple at a secret Budapest rendezvous yes terday and said, "The main pur pose of my visit was to reassure them that if there was any as sistance they needed, it would be at their disposal." Ravndal said it appeared to him during the talk that Field was "no serious pain" from ; yesterday ailment and that Herta Field doubt in "looked much better than her : stomach husband." How often should you change oil, filters? 2000 miles? 2500? 5000? say the experts. You're wasting money ...and may be damaging your engine I ENGINEERS DISCOVER HOW TO MAKE YOUR CAR LAST YEARS L0NGERI This is the secret that wouldn't keep the discovery that can male present-day engines last hundreds of thousands of miles. WHAT'S THE STORY ON OIL? To combat increasing engine friction in modem engines, lubrication engineers have developed new oils containing the 'additives' you hear so much about These additives are worth the extra 151 to 25f you are paying for oil, but... ORDINARY FILTERS REMOVE THE ADDITIVES I The rag and paper filter packs you buy made of absorbent material soak op additives like a blotter; the money you are paying for additives is, for the most part, wasted. And ordinary filters give irregular filtration, allowing large abrasive particles to pass through to damage engine parts. Other faults of throwaway filter: they filter only 5t of the oil when it's cold, causing excessive engine wear during the first 3-5 miles of driving; and they 'clog' and 'channel' as oil pressure forces openings in the filter pack, making it worthless. METALLURGISTS FIND THE ANSWER - To overcome these filtration problems, engineers decided an entirely new kind of filter material had to be developed. Obviously, it had to be metal but there was no way of making a metal screen fine enough. Finally, metallurgists found the answer by fusing together millions of tiny bronze balls into a porous liter. Being non-absorbent, it wouldn't remove addi tives,' yet abrasives simply couldn't get through the spaces between the tiny bronze balls. And, since bronze just doesn't wear out, it would never have t be replaced! Amazing LIFE-TIME filler Now Here.' ' Ordinary filters soak up valuable additives, but let some abrasive particles get through to precision engine surfaces when oil pressure forces 'channels in pack. Since porous bronze cant "chan nel" abrasives can't get through . but oil additives can, because Life-time filter is non-absorbent After 2,000 miles -or 10,000 oil is free of abrasives, but dark, proving engine is clean. The Life-time filter never needs changing just rinse it occasionally in gasoline and it's good as new. Guaranteed for ten years. The Life-time Oil Filter was imme diately tested by Government proving centers and pressed into service filter ing liquid oxygen, nitrogen, etc., for guided missiles. Besides government tests, millions of miles of road tests in truck, taxi, and car rental fleets reveal amazing results because the Life time filter doesn't soak up additives, engine life is greatly increased wher ever it is used: Now the Life-time filter is ready for use in your car.
