Newspaper Page TextG O O TWTI.TE MEDFORD (OREGON) Californians Given Edge Over Oregon By HAL WOOD United Press Sports Writer San Francisco (U.R) Where else, may I ask, can you get such information as this depart ment dishes out0for the price of one thin dime? Did you know, for instance, that the word "bogey" was the first international term used in the game of golf? . Or that' "spelunking" is the sport of exploring cavest .Also: tnat in this department, one week ago today, we told you Mhat College of Pacific would beat Idaho by 20 points final score 20-0; and that Colo rado would whip Oregon by six final score, Colorado 13, Ore gorP6. We'll pass over the fact that we also mentioned that South ern California wauld win over -Washington by 13. How were we to know it would be raining in Seattle and that the Huskies had a pass-lateral play that fool ed everybody, including Coach Johnny Cherberg? So this week we come up with these super-specials at no extra cost to the readers of this news paper: UCLA over Stanford: The In dians are burning after their drubbing by Michigan State, but what good will a slow burn .do against a team as solid as the Bruins? Coach Red Sanders isn't out to make friends or influence people. So the UCLANS by 19. Stelers Favored "California over Oregon: The professional odds-makers pick Ooregon Sty three, but it's strictly a battle of have-nots. We'll say the Golden Bears by one. Southern California over Wis consin: The Badgers are sup posed to have one of the finest teams in the Big Ten and have three straight triumphs. But the Trojans are hard to lick on their home field under the lights. By Qpix. t Washington State over Idaho: The Cougars could have licked . CaliforniaCjvith a good share of the breaks. But that doesn't prove anything. Idaho upset WSC last year. It's State's turn. By 13. t Oregon. State over College of Pacific: This is a hard one to make. Both clubs have shown flashes of power. On their one mutual opponent, Stanford, OSC would have to be favored by 29 points. We'll pick the Beavers by one. San Jose State over New Mex ico: The '"Spartans gun for their fourth straight of the season and New Mexico has just dropped three' in a row. By 21. And Baylor over Washington: The Huskies may be very good, but so is this Bear outfit from, Texas. It has lost only to Mary land and there is the possibility that Washington used up its luck in the USC game. By seven. But if it's raining, the Huskies by six. Also: Arizona over . Texas Western, Arizona (Tempe) State over San Diego State, Pepper dine over Redlands, Chico State over San Francisco State, Fresno State over Nevada, Humboldt State over Southern Oregon, Cal Aggies over Sacramento State, Whittier over Occidental, Santa Barbara over Los Angeles State, Whitworth over Puget Sound, Willamette over College of Idaho, and Central Washing ton over Pacific Lutheran.

FROM 100 GRAIN NEUTRAL SPIRITS 80 PROOF MR. BOSTON DIST, INC, BOSTON MAIL TRIBUNE F. Patterson Stops Brad Los Angeles (U.R) Floyd Patterson, the No. 1 light heavy weight . contender from Brook lyn, needed less than three min utes to convince local fight fans that he is the hottest young fighter in the boxing game to day. The 20-year-o 1 d Patterson belted out Cal Brad, Los An geles, in 2:58 of the first round at Olympic Auditorium last night for his eighth straight KO this year. The non-televised bout had been scheduled for 10 rounds but oddsmakers had SIPdDfflnTS Webfoots, Beavers Have Saturday Night Skirmishes Portland (U.R) Oregon found itself at least an even bet today to knock off California's Golden Bears in Mulnomah Sta dium while Oregon State's in-jury-r i d d 1 e d team goes up against College of Pacific at Stockton, Calif., in what figures to be a tough one for Coach Tommy Prothro's men. Both games will be played Saturday night. Coach Len Casanova again this week has emphasized his passing attack and observers from Eugene sayit can now be called "dangerous" instead of just a "strong possibility." The Ducks have what probably is their fastest set of running backs since the war and have managed tc score in every game, even though losing three out of four. Oddsmakers in the east have made the Ducks from one to three point favorites to defeat a California team that isn't up to its usual caliber. The Golden Bears have managed one win, from weak Pennsylvania, and a tie, with Washington State, this season. Their star end, Jim Car michael, is injured. Oregon's regular right tackle, Harry Johnson, is not scheduled for action. He sat at the Colo rado game, also, with a twisted ankle. ' Oregon State flies south this afternoon for their meeting with the COP Tigers, who walloped Wisconsin Heads Loop in Offense Chicago (U.R) Wisconsin, Big Ten leader with two wins and no losses, also leads the con ference in total offense, statis tics revealed today. The Badgers piled, up 357.5 yards in their wins over Iowa and Purdue, almost equally divided - between passing and rushing. Wisconsin gained 177.5 on the ground and 180 through the air. Ohio State, in just one game, is second with a 351-yard total, 334 by rushing. Michigan, ranked the top team in the country in the weekly United Press poll, and Michigan State, whipped by the Wolverines by a narrow margin, share defensive honors Michigan has given up just one touchdown while the Spar tans have allowed their op ponents the fewest yards, 340 in its two games. RUSSIANS START FAST Munich UJ.R) ' Russian weightlifters, off to their expect ed fast start, will seek tonight to win a third straight title in the world amateur champion ships. As anticipated, the Rus sians won the bantamweight and featherweight crowns and they also are considered a strong en try in tonight's lightweight divi sion. AGREEMENTS MADE Providence, R. I.

October 14. 1955 made Patterson a prohibitive choice to win and a 3-1 favorite to do so by a knockout. Patterson, using left hooks and right crosses, first battered Brad to the canvas midway in the round for an eight count. The relentless onslaught left Brad with a bad cut over his left eye. Patterson then methodically cut Brad down again with an other barrage of blows to the head. A left hook was the finish ing punch. Idaho 20-0 last week. Prothro said Howard Buettgenbach, vet eran right tackle, may not see action and that Norm Thiel, reg ular end, is out with an injury Also,; Joe Francis, the number one tailback, isn't in top shape and his understudy, Ray West fall, has a bad hip.

The Bulldogs scored twice in the second quarter for a 13 to 0 halftime standing and . added their third touchdown early in the third quarter. Jacksonville made two big threats but each time a pass interception wreck ed the effort. Freddie Helm's punt run back from Talent's 18-yard line to the Jacksonville 43 got the Bulldogs on the way to their first score. Two running plays got Talent to the 21. Then Gary Rice went over the left side of the line, cut to the right and ran to the end zone. Jim Walker bucked the ex tra point. Mel Wallace got the second TD drive going with a pass in terception which gave the Bull dogs the ball on their own 49, It took only four plays to get to pay soil. Walker ripped off 18 yards, Barrett sneaked a pair. Rice picked up another 11 and then reeled off another 20 to the goal. Barrett's sneak for a bonus didn't make it. Another interception, this time by Frank Tyckson, started the last successful march which went 47 yards in six plays with Wallace going the final five and Walker adding the extra point. Jacksonville moved from its own 36 to the Talent seven the first time it got hold of the ball. A pass interference penalty took the ball from the 22 to the seven but an illegal procedure infrac tion set the Redskins back to the 12. One pass try was incomplete at that, point and John Walker grabbed the next for Talent which took over on its seven. A fumble recovery on the Tal ent 39 gave the Redskins anoth er big opportunity in the final stanza. Jacksonville " moved down to the one in 10 plays but Clyde Smith's flat pass was snag ged by Wallace in the end zone and the Bulldog ran the ball out to the 29. - Talent has another , assign ment Monday when it journeys On SCREEN 7 P Jtf. & 11:15 PJVI.
