1 Red Haiders Pointing for OTI Struggle Ashland Southern Oregon college is pointing this week for a conference victory over Ore gon Tech to keep in the running for the Oregon Collegiate con ference title. The Red Raiders, who downed Portland State 20-6 and lost to Eastern Oregon 20-21 in previous conference competition, must de feat OTI this week end and Ore gon college on November 12, to gain a tie for the OCC crown. Al Akins' gridders will not be at full strength for the contest with the Owls at Klamath Falls, but will be much stronger than for last week's Western Wash ington game, which they played minus seven regulars. Five of the seven who missed the WWCE game will be back for competition against the Ore gon Tech team. Bill Seymour, accurate - passing quarterback who missed the Bellingham con test "with a badly bruised arm, will again be in the starting lineup, as will fullback Don Korns, halfback Ted Tenney, halfback Bill Rush, and tackle Al Sodaro. ' Still on the injury list, how ever, are Ralph Clarno, the Raiders' leading ground-gainer, with a neck and shoulder in jury, and end Walt McCoy, who is possibily out for the remaind er of the year with a bad knee. The Red Raiders also have a revenge incentive this year, tak ing 89 to 0 and 40 to 19 shellack ings from the Owls in the last two contests. Probable starting lineup for the OTI game includes ends Hank Smith and Dick Smith, tackles Al Sodaro and Herb Col- ley, guards Chuck Romine and Don Dickson, center Tom Quin owski, quarterback Seymour, halfbacks Tenney and Rush, and fullback Korns.

I Boston (U.R) The Boston Celt- ics of the National Basketball association Wednesday pur chased rnie Risen, a 10-year vet eran in the pro loop, from the Rochester Royals in a straight cash deal. Risen is a former Ohio State star. By CARL LUNDQUIST New York (U.R) College football attendance has shown an increase of 4.4 per cent so far this season with the biggest gains being registered in the Rocky mountains and the Southwest, the United Press annual mid season survey revealed today. Tabulations of home crowds from 109 colleges showed a to tal of 7,264,475 fans have at tended 297 games so far this year as compared with 6,957,435 fans who witnessed the identical number of home games a year ago. Every section of the country showed an increase except the East and the Midlands. In the East, where heavy rains that reached flood proportions threw something of a damper on college football, attendance was off by 18.0 per cent, while the Midlands showed a decrease of 5.2 per cent. Spectcular Rockies Increase In the Rockies, where attend ance showed a spectular 17.6 in crease in 1954, the crowds have kept growing larger so that there is an 18.0 increase so far this season over last year. The Steelhead Luck Slows on Middle Section of Rogue Portland (U.R) The weekly report on fishing conditions pre pared by the Oregon Game Commission: ' SOUTHWEST: Salmon an gling in Coquille river is slow to good. Salmon angling in both forks of Coos river is fair. Striped bass angling in Ithmus slough is fair to good. Steelhead fishing on the mid dle section of the Rogue river has slowed down, but occasional good catches continue to be made in the Galice area. Troll ing hotshots below Galice . is a good producer, but single eggs or cluster eggs are the only lure that will produce catches from Hellsgate to Grants Pass. Salmon angling in Tenmile lake and outlets is fair to good. The Umpqua river watershed closes October , 31 for salmon not less than 20 inches in length except the main Umpqua river below highway 38 bridge at Scottsburg, Smith river below the falls and all other tidewater areas. A few fish are still being caught in the Umpqua and forks areas, but angling is slow elsewhere. Southwest, which was also up 12.3 last year, continues upward so far this season with an in crease of 16.6 over last year's attendance. This year's overall increase in attendance so far is slightly less than the overall increase of 6.2 per cent registered in 1954 but it maintains a trend that began with the NCAA's controlled television policy which was in troduced in 1951. With unlimited TV in 1950, attendance was off 6.3 that year, but since then it has climb ed slightly but consistently, with the exception of 1952 when it was down by only .69 of one per cent. The average crowd per game this year has been 24,460 as against the average crowd of 23,426 a year ago. Next to the Rocky Mountains and the Southwest, the West lias showed the largest attendance gain so far this season with an increase of 10.8. The South is next in line with an increase of 10.7, followed by the Midwest which shows an upswing 'of 7.0 per cent. Michigan, the No. 1 team in the United Press coaches' rat ings, also is at the top in home attendance, having played be fore 328,012 fans in four home games this season. In the same number of home games last sea son, the Wolverines played be fore 254,001 fans. The Midwest qualifies as the current "hotbe,d" of football with the highest attendance total up to now. A total of 1,955,561 fans have witnessed 46 games in the Midwest while the South, is sec ond in total attendance with l, 688,647 for 75 games and the West third with 1,060,575. The sectional leaders, in addi tion to Michigan, are West Vir ginia in the East with 100,400 fans at four home games; Miami, Fla., in the South with 162,093 fans at three games; Oklahoma in the Midlands with 159,000 in three games; Texas in the South west with 198,000 in four games; Utah in the Rocky mountains with .71,542 in three games, and Southern California in the West with 219,679 in four games.
