EVERGREEN LEAGUE
Fire fighting did not stop the
Evergreen Bowling league. Ties
in the standings are common
place and the handicaps decided
many close games bowled. All
the top honors for the evening
went to Charles McWhorter of
Chuck's Pump Service. "Chuck"
had a 572 series and a 234 game,
only to see the team drop three
games p Domestic Laundry.
Only one series was lopsided
and that was due mainly to the
losing team rolling in two new
men scrtrtch against a team with
full handicap.

Saturday Evening Post,
Look Pick UCLA Bruins
Philadelphia The Saturday
Evening Post's 16th annual "Pjg
skin Preview" has picked UCLA
to win the Pacific Coast confer
ence championship, with South
ern California as runner-up.
Veteran sports editor Fred
Russell, who made the selections,
gave both of these elevens na
tional recognition by including
them in his listing of the twenty
top college teams in the country
He predicts that Oklahoma
will be the nation's strongest
gridiron machine, followed by
UCLA, Michigan, Rice, Navy,
Army, Maryland, Georgia Tech,
West Virginia, Ohio State, Min
nesota, Kentucky, Southern Cal
ifornia, Auburn, Miami, Notre
Dame, Wisconsin, SMU; Duke
and Baylor, in that order.
Commenting on the Pacific
Coast conference, Russell says
it is twice unbalanced; the
Northwest teams are no match
for the California teams, and
the Northern California teams
are fast losing ground to the
Southern California teams, so
that prospects are that the cham
pionship battle will again be
within the Los Angeles city lira
its.
New York Power-packed
UCLA will roll over its regular
season foes and on' to a victory
over Michigan in the Rose Bowl,
the new issue of Look magazine
predicts.
The Uclans razor-sharp single-
wing, led by All American full
back Bob Davenport, will have
trouble with the rugged Iowa
line, explosive Southern Cal and
Jim Tatum's Maryland Terrapins
but should beat at least the first
two, Look said.

players went out on the field.
At the blackboard session the
squad will go over the offen
sive and defensive strategy
against the Indians. No contact
scrimmage is planned in the
work on the field but there'll be
kick-off, punt return and signal
drill.
Last heavy scrimmage, lasting
about a half-hour, was held last
night and Head Coach Fred
Spiegelberg remarked that it
50 Turn Out
For 1st SOC
Grid Work
Ashland More than 40 foot
ball candidates greeted South
ern Oregon's new coach, Al Ak
ins for the initial practice ses
sions Tuesday. With a turnout
of 50 anticipated for later work
outs, townspeople and coaching
staff alike are reportedly seeth
ing with enthusiasm.
According to Coach Akins, ex
perienced players are few in
proportion to the total number
reporting for practice although
a number of the players have
listed fine prep school and ser
viceball records. It was pointed
out that a new system, split-T
formation, would have to be
learned by the entire team. It
is expected to produce spectacu
lar, crowd-pleasing, planned and
optional laterals.
Returning lettermen reporting
to date include Tom Quinowski,
guard, who received honorable
mention in the OCC last year;
Chuck Remine, guard, all con
ference while playing at Medford
high in addition to playing in
the 1949 Shrine game; Leonard
Weber, all-Klamath County,
1949, at half; and James Shrum,
Jim McKinney, and Tom Jacob
son also listed as halfbacks. .
Other Leltermen
Other lettermen are: At cen
ter, Jason Wilson; fullback, John
Garrett; two quarterback aspir
ants, Keith Johnson and Bill
Seymour; and ends Jerry Liv
ingstone, Ray Thiess, and Chuck
Crandall.
Potentially fine ball packers
and linemen turning out at SOC
for the first time are Walt Mc
Coy and Ted Tenney, transfers
from the University of Oregon;
Dick Smith, all-conference end
three years while at Ashland;
and Larry Maurer, a younger
brother of Lou and Ron Maurer
who made athletic history at
SOC a few years ago.
Workouts have been sched'
uled for mornings and after
noons on the Ashland field which
will be fully lighted for all home
games this year for the first
time.
Ashland businessmen have re
organized the booster's club, for
merly known as the Red Raiders
Booster's club, and are, as point
ed out by Akins, going to make
an all-out effort to put the team
across by encouraging attend
ance at games and by providing
part time jobs for deserving
players who need extra money
to help-them while in schooL
Five Newcomers
On Ryder Team
Chicago (U.R) Five new
comers and five veterans will
make up the U. S. Ryder Cup
golf team which will meet Great
Britain at Palm Springs, Calif.,
Nov. 5-6.
. The U. S. team, which holds
an 8-2 edge in the series, was
announced Wednesday by the
Professional Golfers association.
The five making their first
appearance in the series are
1955 PGA champion Doug
Ford, Jerry Barber,. Tommy
Bolt, Marty Furgol and Chand
ler Harper.
Slammin' Sammy Snead, a
veteran . of five Ryder Cup
matches, will head the list pf
veterans in the 11th revival of
the series. The others are Jack
Burke Jr., who is making his
third appearance, and Chick
Harbert, Cary Middlecoff and
Ted Kroll, each with one pre
vious appearance.
The group will meet at New
York Sept. 12 to elect a play
ing captain. Lloyd Mangrum
was named honorary captain by
the PGA executive committee.
The current PGA champion
always has been accorded a spot
ort the team. Since two PGA
championships have been play
ed since the last matches in
1953, both Ford and Harbert,
the 1954- winner, automatically
won spots on the team.
WINS BpW TOURNEY
Mist (U.R) Paul Pintarich of
Portland scored 466 points to
win the 20th annual Pope-Young
Field Archers of Oregon tourna
ment here. The tournament is
designed to give archers a
chance to test their equipment
before the archery hunting sea
son. :
did not go too well. But it is
hoped that the let up from hard
physical exertion will have the
crew back in tune.
There was both good and bad
riews fronv the camp. On the
good side most of the fire fight
ing members of the squad were
back. Tackle Mel Morgan has
returned after a siege of flu.
Cearley Crippled : "
The bad reports were that
back Lloyd Cearley likely will
see only limited service and that
Rodney Hammer will be out
entirely. Cearley had a muscle
bruise on his upper arm and his
only service may be punting.
Hammer broke a thumb. A hard
cast reportedly is required and
gridders are not allowed to play
with such protection. He may
be lost for several weeks.
Spiegelberg was not ready to
day to name a possible starting
gang. He indicated that the sit
uation is uncertain except in a
few spots.
Just what kind of opposition
Medford will be up against still
wasn't too well known today.
The Tribe reportedly has been
hard hit by graduation. A Port
land report indicated just a
handful of lettermen returning.
Cleveland may have a young
club, but Coach Hub Shovlin is
expected to have the Indians
"up" for the encounter here. Bob
Koblens is listed as a halfback
standout. Fuller details on the
Tribe may arrive on Friday.
Eagle Point, '
Bdndon Vie
Friday Night
Eagle Point A reasonably
heavy line-up will take the
field for Eagle Point high Fri
day night in its season opener
here against Bandon high.
Weights listed with possible
starters indicated a possible
team average of 175 pounds
with a concentration of heavy
lads in the center of the line
and lighter boys at the flanks
and in the backfield.
Coach Stan Smith said that
Ron Nelson, 155, and Dennis
Boren, 160, or Wayne Christian,
175, may start at ends with Nor
man Hooper, 180, and Dick Wal
lace, 202 at tackles. Likely
guards are Jim Bunker, 190,
and Dean Tibbetts, 180. Roy
Reagan, 180, may be at center.
In the backfield the possibles
are Gate. Friend, 170, quarter
back; Jack Bunker, 170, or
Monte Axtell, 170, left halfback;
Adrian Elrod, 155, right half;
and Jack Greb, 160, fullback.
Line About 180
The line, itself, will average
close to 180. pounds, and the
backfield about 164.
Smith expressed some worry
about the physical condition of
his club for the opener. The
Eagles have only practiced once
per day. Some of the boys have
been firefighting and others
have had to miss drills for other
reasons. A number of the play
ers have attended only seven of
the 10 drills. Thirty-one boys
have equipment and turnouts
have averaged 26. The mentor
mentioned that his club had suf
fered no practice injuries but
that he was knocking on wood.
The 8 p.m. Friday contest
will be Eagle Point's first un
der lights.
There may be as many as
eight lettermen in Eagle Point's
starting aggregation. Axtell is
a transfer from Medford. Christ
ian, Jim Bunker and Reagan
are sophomores.
Smith has his club running
from a standard T formation.
Stan Hack Signs
New Cub Pact
Chicago (U.R) Stan Hack,
one of the most popular players
ever to wear a Chicago Cub uni
form, today had some good news
from the people who really
count the front office.
Hack, who has a chance to.
pilot the Cubs to their best sea
son since 1952, was signed Wed
nesday to manage the Cubs
again in 956. Terms of the new
contract were not announced,
but it was believed that Hack
got a raise of some kind.
' Hack said only that he was
"very satisfied" with the pact.
The Cubs finished seventh
last year under Hack and most
baseball experts predicted a like
finish or worse this season.
But Hack maintained the club
would finish fourth.
The Cubs still have a chance
to climb into the first division,
but it would take a whirlwind
finish to beat out the Phillies or
Giants.

Kiner Says
He's Had It
(Ralph Kin.r of the Cleve
land Indians, a seven -time
horn run champion in he
National League probably
could have remained in the
majors a few more years. But
he announced yesterday that
this season will be his last,
In the following dispatch, he
explains what prompted his
decision.)
By RALPH KINER
Written For The United Press
Baltimore, Md. U.R) It's no
fun any more when playing a
ball game is a trial instead of a
thrill.
I made up my mind a long
time ago that I wouldn't stay in
baseball when I couldn't play
my best any more.
The back trouble I've had the
past two years plus the fact that
I'm getting along in years I'll
be 33 next monthdid more
than anything else to make up
my mind. 11
The toughest part of my de
cision concerned my relation
ship with the Cleveland ball
club. Everyone connected with
it treated me wonderfully, from
Manager Al Lopez on down. I
know I'll miss every one of them
when the bell rings next spring.
Some people think I'll change
my mind and come back next
isn't a chance in the
world. I've had it and I know
it. As a matter of fact I would
have quit before this season if I
didn't think I could help the
Indians win the pennant.

Rogue River
Slates Game
Rogue River The "not
ready" moan of many coaches
whose clubs face season openers
was echoed here today by Men
tor Tinker Hatfield as the Rogue
River high grid squad looked
toward its contest with Oakland
in the Douglas county town at
2:30 p.m. on Saturday.
Rogue River boys, as in other
towns of the valley, have been
out fighting fire. That has taken
gridders away from drills. Hat
field also mentioned that a num
ber of boys have been working
who won't be out until school
begins.
Probable starters for the Chief
tains Saturday are Bob Wilson
and Bill Weaver, end; Charles
Weaver and Steven Scott or Bill
Dixon, tackles; Gray Stewart
and Gary Phillips, guards; Rich
ard Twiest, center; Gary Stinch
comb, quarterback; Bilbee Lane,

half, and Lloyd Towse, fullback.
The two Weavers are brothers.

Plan Revealed
San Francisco (U.R) Pacific
Coast League President Claire
V. Goodwin has revealed a pro
posal for the construction of a
multi-purpose, all-weather sports
center by a non-profit group to
take over the San Francisco
Seals' PCL baseball franchise.
Goodwin plans to take the pro
posal before the San Francisco
Chamber of Commerce today and
at a meeting of the PCL board
of directors in Seattle Monday.
The project was proposed to
Goodwin yesterday by Paul Mc
Coy, San Francisco public rela
tions executive, who said he had
received private endorsements
from about 15 of the city's top
business leaders. McCoy said he
thought the center could be fi
nanced .on a tax-deductable
