YOUR OLD BATTERY

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.

fourth places to qualify for
play-off berths.
Five teams are still in the

Five can do no worse than a
fourth place tie in the final
regular standings. Eagle Point
can afford to lose one game and

race. One loss each will put the
church and Prospect out of the
scrap.

puts Eagle Point against Sacred
Heart while the Campus Five
opposes Burelson's of Central

the replay approved.
