YOUR OLD BATTERY IS WORTH SAVE THIS It Makes Your Old Trade-in On ALL For All Makes of Vehicles By DICK JEWETT Mail Tribune Sports Editor ministers the grant-in-aid pro gram for University of Ore gon athletes in addition to handling the Duck varsity track tutoring duties. Sports Editor Dick Sirite in his Eu gene Register-Guard High climber column outlines the "Bowerman system" for giv ing the aid to players whom it is hoped will give Oregon the manpower to field repre sentative teams. Bowerman's standard for mula, according to Slriies ac count, is based around the "life expectancy" of an ath lete as a student. ATHLETE EVALUATED After "Duck hunting" is ac complished with the help of alumni and friends of Oregon, after coaches of a prep star's rival schools are queried and after the boy's own school offi cials are questioned, a tran script of his grades is evaluated by the university admissions of fice. A student without suffie ient credits must be evaluated on an 18-point basis from IQ en trance examinations and his transcript. The admissions de partment uses an aggregate of 10 points as indication of event ual graduation. The athletic department un der the Bowerman plan, how ever, uses an eight-point aggre gate. Department feeling, Strite said, is that an athlete in high school does not have the educational experiences of a non-athlete and that motivation makes up the differential be cause facts prove the desire to make the grade athletically will stimulate him scholastically. STELLE FOUGHT HARD Earl Stelle, Oregon quar terback by way of Medford high, is described by Sirite as one "who fought for his grades as hard as he fought to gain a varsity football berth and that motivation brought success in both." TO ELIMINATE The formula is aimed at eliminating waste of financial aid to athletes unable to pro gress toward graduation, pre venting the loss of coaching time to athletes who flunk out and preventing the loss of com munity goodwill when an ath lete returns to his home after failing to make the grade scholastically. Strite reported that, generally speaking, the Oregon athletic department's formula is correct. There is no cut and dried policy on the number of ath letes, under the minimum re quirements coaches contact. However, it is recommended that only 20 per cent be on the "gamble" status. Kid Gains Nod Oyer Durando By JACK CUDDY New York (U.R) Kid Gavi lan will omit a rest period be tween fights for the first time in his long career and return to training camp Monday in search of more speed than he showed in Friday night's split victory over Ernie Durando. "I want to be much faster for Bobby Jones," said the former welterweight champion, whose whirlwind tenth round gave him his first comeback win on a split 10-round decision over middle weight Durando in Madison Square Garden. Two More Fights The Cuban veteran is slated to meet middleweight Jones of Oakland, Calif., at Miami on Feb. 23-. "I'll train and fight two more fights," Gavilan said. "Then I'll be ready to win back thy championship. All I need is speed. My right hand, she is per fect. I hit harder with it than for two years." He fractured the hand early in 1954. It healed slowly. Gavilan had a much harder fight than expected. Durando went into the ring a 4-1 under dog, but he did so well Referee Mark Conn voted for him on a round basis, 7-3. However, Judges Artie Aidala and Bert Grant favored Gavi lan, 5-4-1 and 6-4, respectively. The United Press agreed, 6-4. $g00 5) TRADE-IN COUPON Battery Worth $5.00 NEW BATTERIES and Industrial Equipment. BAKER'S BATTERY SERVICE One mile north of Big Y Market on Hwy. 99 corner Mace Rd.
