IPCC Fines Members SI 2,900;
Oregon State Levied $2,650
San Francisco (U.R) The Pa
cific Coast Conference Saturday
lapped a total of $12,900 worth
of fines against its members for
numerous violations after a two
day secret session.
H. P. Everett, vice president
of the University of Washington
and conference spokesman, said
that the fines were levied for
the first time since 1950 because
"We very seldom have had of
fenses repeated by institutions
, so assessed."
Everett added that although
the conference would not name
particular names or instances to
the press the schools concerned
couid do so if they desire.
Everett characterized the fines
"punitive," but added that the
objective was to be more of a
"corrective measure than one of
punishment."
OSC Fined S2.650
Hardest hit was Oregon State ',
which was assessed S2.650.
UCLA was fined $2,200 and
Washington State $2,050.
Ko individuals were signled
out in the Conference announce
- ment but the head basketball
coaches of UCLA, Oregon State.

" criticizing game officials.
The coaches involved were
: Johnny Wooden, UCLA, Slats
' Gill, Oregon State, Forrest Two
good of Southern Cal, and Har-
' lan Hodges of Idaho.
Other conference schools were
, fined as follows:
Washington, $1600; California
i $1200; Idaho. $1200; Southern
California, S900; Oregon, $600;
Stanford, $500
; Everett said the total of $12,-
; 900 was not the highest ever
assessed by the PCC.
' "Our fines totaled about S20,-
! 000 in 1950," he said, "before
; we shelved the operation for a
! five year period."
Basketball offenses figured in
six of the school's fines with
, Stanford, Washington State and

Ump Rules
Homer; Oaks
Win in 10th
By PETER HAYES
United Press Sports Writer
The Oakland Oaks nudged
Los Angeles, 3-2, in 10 innings
Friday night after umpire Joe
Lacovetti broke with all arbiter
tradition and changed a decision
he had made.
Angel Manager Bob Scheffing
announced he was playing under
protest as a result of George
Metkovich's disputed two- run
homer into the right field
bleachers scoring the tying runs
in the eighth inning.
Lacovetti, first base umpire,
at first ruled that the ball had
hit the fence and bounced back
into play. Metkovich had pulled
up at second. But Oak players
in the right field bullpen pro
tested that the ball had dropped
into the bleachers and bounced
back into the field.
The ump finally ruled that it
had been a home run. Press box
observers agreed, but Scheffing
engaged Lacovetti in a long ar
gument before announcing he
was playing under protest from
that point on.
The Oaks went on to win in
the 10th when Don Moitoza
came home on Jim Marshall's
bad-hop single over the head of
second baseman Gene Mauch.
Olson Toughest
For Martinez
Portland (U.R) Jimmy Mar
tinez, a handsome young fighter
from New York who has lost onlv
eight decisions in 60 fights, steps

August 13. when he battles
middleweight champ Carl (Bobo)
Olson.
The 10-round non-title fight is
scheduled for Multnomah sta
dium. "Jimmy has fought everyone
of note in his division and is now
ready for better things," said
promoter Tommy Moyer. Since
the first of the year he has
beaten Charley Salas, Bobby
Jones and Joe Miceli and also
holds a win over Del Flanagan.
Moyer said both Olson and
Martinez were in top condition.
Olson has been training ever
since his defeat by Archie Moore
and is anxious to get back into
action, Moyer said.
It is the first outdoor card in
Portland for more than 12 years
with three four-rounds and a 10
round feature bout also in pros
pect.

Participants
Conditioning
Late afternoon or early eve
ning workouts, after their regu
lar day's chores are done, have
become routine in recent days
for three athletes who finished
Medford high school football ca
reers last fall.
The three, Mike Devore, Rocky
Stone and Paul Eckel, will rep
resent their alma mater and their
city in the annual Shrine prep
all-star gridiorn contest in Port
land on August 20. They aim,
following word from their
coaches, to be in the best physi
can condition possible when they
report next Sunday for the two
weeks of intensive drill preced
ing the conflict.
The gridmen, who will join 21
other young men for State's
battle with the Metropolitan
team, are the only boys picked
from the Rogue River valley area
this year.
Jobs Helping
All three Medfordites have
been laboring at jobs which
should help them be in trim
for the charity fracas. Stone has
been working as a timber cruiser.
Eckel has been logging. He's
played American Legion junior
baseball this summer and both
he and Stone attended National
Guard camp. DeVore is working
as a carpenter's helper, digging
ditches at White City. Earlier he
had a job with Southern Pacific
company.
Stone has indicated he hopes
to be down around 170 pounds
for the all-star clash, while De
Vore aims to weigh between 195
and 200, and Eckel about 190.
Before their selection for the
shrine affair all three Medford
youths received all-star recog
nition. Stone, a halfback, was on
the Portland Oregonian all-state
second team and was All-Southern
Oregon Conference three
years.
DeVore, a center, and Eckel,
a guard, along with Stone were
among six Medford players
named to the 1954 all-league first
team. DeVore was picked on the
all-state crew of Exchange Vues,
publication of Farmer's Insur
ance Exchange.
Eckel reportedly plans to enter
Oregon State college or Univer
sity of Washington this fall while
DeVore will enroll at University
of Oregon. Stone may go into the
Air Force.
Others Working Out
Norm Chapman, who'll be a
sophomore at Oregon this fall,
and Lorin Jacobs, who report
edly will enter UO as a freshman,
have been conditioning at the
high school field along with De
Vore and Stone. Chapman, a
Shrine standout last year, was a
star center for the UO Frosh last
fall.
One of the coaches over the
Medford Shrine delegation for
the 1955 fracas will be the boys'
high school tutor, Fred Spiegel
berg. Participation of four Med
fordites in the game has boosted
interest here and some choice
seats have been placed on sale
at Barker's Men's store.

There Must Be A Reason Why . . .
So Many People Buy Volkswagen!
Look around anywhere in Southern Oregon . . . you'll
see Volkswagens . . . There must be a reason for Volks
wagen's popularity . . . You bet there is! Plenty of them!
Your neighbor may have bought bis because of low initial
cost ... or because Volkswagen has the lowest operating cost
of any car on the market . . . Maybe some people bought
their's because of superb ride, and cornering ability ... or for
ease of handling: and easy parking . . . Many may have been
impressed by the fine German craftsmanship . . . and the
reputation for longer life . . . surpassing that of most of the
much more expensive cars . . . Some possibly fell in love
with the amazing mechanical features of the car . . . the rear
mounted air-cooled engine that needs no "warming up." the
dual fuel tanks, the independently adjusted seats . . . There
are those who liked the superb luxury and comfort built into
the interiors and finishing of Volkswagens . . . It's probably
a sure thing, however, that all owners bought their Volks
wagen for all these features, and many more too numerous to
mention . . . Why don't you look into the tremendous pos
sibilities of Volkswagen . . . Drive out to Morse Motors,
your friendly Volkswagen dealer for an interesting demon
stration and test drive ...
