But when the smoke clears away there won't be enough dif ference between the present rules and the new ones to be noticeable. "We have about 35 sugges tions for rules changes, but we won't make any changes of major importance," says Com missioner Bert Bell. Among the rules that may be q approved are ones to make it mandatory xo marie xne one- yard stripes the full length of the field; having linemen unable to shift after coming to a three- point stance to eliminate the "sucker shift"; and when the ball goes out of bounds on a Kick-off, giving tne receiving : learn the choice of taking the ball where it went out of bounds, or the five-yard penalty.

U.R) Dr. Cary Middlecoff used a "floating putt" in shooting the best round of golf "In my life" in winning the Big osby S15, 000 clambake for the second consecutive year. Middlecoff walked off with first prize of 525,000 and set a new tourney record Sunday with his three-round score of 202 as he used an old-fashioned hickory shaft putter in "float ing" long putts across the rain flooded greens. Going into the last round in a first place deadlock with crew cut Bob Rosburg of San Fran cisco, Middlecoff started slow over the water-logged course and made the turn in only one Black Torn Leaders By Tippin SOUTHERN "RECON CONFERENCE STANDINGS W Medford 4 Klamath Falls 2 Grants Pass . 1 Ashland 1 Pet 1.000 .500 .250 .250 A persistent driving, unrelent ing Medford high Black Tornado which had "strong determina tion on defense and let the of fense take care of its self" zoomed from the role of strong contender to that of "team to beat" in the Southern Oregon Conference in a potent week end showing at Klamath Falls. Successfully overcoming a dis advantage in height for the second consecutive night, the Tornado also will-powered its way in a struggle against fatigue to squelch the Klamath Peli can basketball quintet 56 to 48 on Saturday. The verdict fol lowed a 73 to 64 Medford tri umph on Friday, making a clean sweep for the Black Tornado. Week end action gave Med ford a two-game lead in the chase for conference honors and left it the lone unblemished con tingent in the Class A-l circuit. Ashland drubbed the Grants Pass Cavemen 85 to 61 on Saturday after bowing to the Climate City boys 58 to 55 on Friday. The Ashland-GP split kept Klamath alone in second place in league standings. Equal Zeal Medf ord's big effort on Friday in the higher Klamath altitude had been a tiring one but it didn't dim the desire of the Pear capital club and the defenders fought with equal zeal on Satur day. It took a while to turn the tide, but after once gaining the lead and losing it, the Tornado took command again and kept it. First quarter score was knot ted at 14-all. Medford headed 25 to 22 at the half and 43 to 35 after three quarters. Eleven points at one time of the final half was the widest tTornado margin. Medford didn't get the lead until in the second quarter when Dick Copple's bucket made it 19 to 18. Don Taucher made it 20 to 18 for Klamath but Lloyd Cearley hit for 21 to 20 and Medford stayed on top from there. Coach Roelandt today termed the Klamath wins team and squad victories, pointing to the strong roles played by reserves in the contests and too the work played in practice by other squad members in preparing the Tornado regulars defensively for the series. They ran Pelican of fensive plays in the week of spirited drills. Reserves did a wonderful job, according to the mentor, who pointed to the work of Larry Perkins and Ed Remking Satur day and Mike Stearns on Friday Labors fell on Perkins and Reinking particularly on Satur day when fouls limited the duty of Copple and John Foust and a cut above the eye sidelined Cearley for a time. Copple missed about 11 min utes of play, leaving after his fourth foul with three minutes Johnson Picked To Beat Sullivan New York U.R) Light heavyweight Tony Johnson of New York is favored at 11-5 to beat England's Johnny Sullivan former British middleweight champion, tonight in their TV 10-rounder at the St. Nicholas arena. Johnson, heavier and stronger than Sullivan, was impressive in his last bout on Nov. 28, when he knocked out Billy McNeece in the eighth round. Earlier last year, McNeece had held him to a draw. Greek Tony was less fortu nate in his other two bouts of 1955. He was stopped in the fifth round by Paddy Young and out pointed by Willie Pastrano of New Orleans. MedfordTribune hm under par.

On the 10th he dropped a 15-footer for a bird and follow ed it with a 12-footer for anoth er bird on the 11th and a 14 footer for a third bird on the 14th. Middlecoff 's total made up of rounds of 66-63-66 bested the old record of 204 set by Lloyd Mangrum in 1953. . : While Middlecoff was winning the medal play as he pleased, Ralph (Sleepyhead) Blomquist, Glendale, Calif., and his ama teur partner George -Galios. of Monterey, Calif., took the Pro Am championship with a record best ball 183. ado Boosts in League Pels 56-48 played in the third quarter and returning to action with two minutes to go in the game. Foust fouled out with seven minutes played in the third and Cearley was out-of action about six min utes after his injury. Ccpple was still high point man for the night with 13 points, scoring five field goals. Taucher got five of his six field shots in the first half and led Klamath with 13 points. Four Medford men scored in twin figures, Neil Plumley had 11 and Dick Mc Laughlin and Bob Tisdel each 10. Medford again Saturday gave Klamath a great battle on the boards.

The win, on top of a 51 to 40 count over the Comets on Fri day, gave the undefeated Pirates a two-game margin in the standings over its nearest foes. Eagle Point completed a two game sweep over Illinois Val ley with a 65 to 34 performance on Saturday to deadlock with Crater in second place in the loop. The more polished and sharp er Phoenix Pirates jumped in front of the Comets early in the first quarter and steadily increas ed their bulge to a ' 21-point spread midway in the third quar ter. After that they found the Crater crewmen rough as well as rugged and the hassle finish ed like a slam-bang bruising football game. The rough and tumble aspect intensified as re serves filtered in to end the eve ning. Outdriving and outrunning the Comets and butmaneuvering them for a good number of close in chances, the Pirates gained leads of 17 to 11 at the quarter and 34 to 17 at the half. Free shots were helpful to Phoenix as it got 45 to 23 and 47 to 25 gaps in the third quarter. That period ended 47 to 27. With reserves in their line-up the Pirates didn't score in the last four minutes of play. As Comet regulars gave way to re serves, Crater whittled away the Phoenix lead as the, game closed out. ' Bill Madden scored 19 and Delmar Brood 12 for Phoenix and John Shama 11 for Crater. Eagle Point pulled away from TV after leading 11 to 9 at the quarter.

Use Tribune Want Ads Monday, January 16, 1956 East Squad Nudges West 31-30 in Pro Grid Bowl By HAL WOOD Los Angeles (U.R) When there is talent on the football field it means excitement. That was what happened here Sunday when the East beat the West, 31-30, in the annual Pro Bowl game that ended in a wrangle but which furnished the wildest day of football possible right from the opening kick-off. That was when Jack Christ iansen of the Detroit Lions ran the opening kick back 103 yards for a touchdown just to give a sample of excitement to come. Actually, the West thought it won the game, as an argument broke out at the end. Rechichar attempted a field goal from the 50 with three seconds to go. It was short and Joe Scudero of the Washington Redskins re ceived the ball approximately on the goal line. The West claimed he stepped into the end zone and downed the ball, which would have given the West two points and the game. The officials ruled that he caught the ball in the end zone and therefore it was a touch back with no points. It was OUie Matson, former University of San Francisco star from the Chicago Cardinals, who was voted the outstanding star of the game. Among the feats were the 91-yard return of a kick-off; a 15-yard, all-alone power play that scored another touchdown, and several other hipper-dipper performances that left both the fans and the other players goggle-eyed. For instance, with the West trailing, 20-21, big Bert Rech ichar of Baltimore kicked a field goal from the 46-yard line to put his Western team in front, 23 20. But, not to be out-done, the old reliable Lou The Toe Groza First Division Possibility for By ED SAINSBURY United Press Sports Writer Chicago (U.R) The Chica go Cubs will be improved in pitching and catching in 1956, Manager Stan Hack reported, foreseeing a possible first divis ion finish for the club m the Na tional league race. "Jim Brosnan has improved enough to help the club pitch ing," he said, "and Turk Lown I believe has probably found himself again. Then Russ Meyer can be a starter for us and help. Hobie Landrith will help the catching, and Don Hoak will give us improved hustle and defens ive play." Hack said his team would have the "best second base com bination in either league" in sec ond baseman Gene Baker and shortstop Ernie Banks. But to complete the strength down the middle, he was uncer tain about center field with Gale Wade, Solly Drake and perhaps Eddie Miksis getting a chance at the job. . "I believe a ball club has to be built down the middle," he said, "witti the side positions supposed to be the power hit ters." Hack's theory that Hoak, in fielder obtained from Brooklyn with outfielder Walt Moryn in a December trade, would help the club drew support from Mey er, another former Brooklyn player traded to the Cubs. "Hoak will make the fans for get about Randy Jackson," Mey er said. "I think Randy is a good ball player, and Hoak won't hit the long 'ball like he does, but he'll make up for it in hustle and leadership. "He'll show you how to run California Edges Webfoot Cage Aggregation 67-65 Portland (U.R) Oregon's Ducks, losers of a heartbreaking 67-65 basketball decision to California Saturday night, began preparing today for an invasion of Idaho this weekend while Oregon State's Beavers tuned up to play host to Stanford. Coach Slats Gill's Oregon State team dropped an 83-53 de cision to Southern California in a televised game Saturday afternoon, making it two defeats in a row at the hands of the Tro jans.

The two great forward walls would butt heads without any gain for half a dozen plays, then someone would break loose on a 50-yard touchdown play. Then, the defense would take over. Once, the East had first and nine yards to go for a touch down just before the half ended. Through certain circumstances, they got seven cracks at the line and made it to the one-foot line and never did score before the West took over.

When he goes out on that field, there's only one thing on his mind, how to beat you and he doesn't care how he does it. With him I'll defy you to name a better defensive infield in the league." Hack said he didn't know about Moryn, but that he hoped "he'll be another Bill Nicholson, and Meyer, who played with the Cubs with Nicholson earlier, said that he thought Moryn could be the "sleeper of the deal." Tremendous Help "When he was sent out in 1955," he said, "he didn't want to go, and I think he has good possibilities of being another Ni cholson. I think the deal is go ing to be a tremendous help." Hack listed Meyer, Bob Rush, Sam Jones, Warren Hacker and Paul Minner as potential starting pitchers with Brosnan and rookie John Briggs perhaps rat ing starting berths too. For relief work he listed Turk Lown and Jim Davis. To complete his outfield, it appeared he would rely on Hank Sauer and Monte Irvin, but he specified that he was going to spring camp with an "open mind." "Everybody has a chance to make our ball club," he said, "and everybody is going to get a good look."
