handed defending champion
Colorado a 70-68 loss at Ames,
Iowa the champ's first loss
In four league games this year.
In 1st Place Tie
The loss dropped Colorado into
a first-place tie with Kansas

Iowa State, a team that boasts
the best overall record in the
conference, 11-3, back into con
tention for the crown at 2-2.
Iowa, another defending con
ference champion, fared more
happily Monday night as it ral
lied from a nine-point deficit
in the final seven minutes to
beat Purdue, 67-63, at Lafayette
Ind. The victory gave the
Hawkeyes a 4-1 league record
and kept them hot on the heels
of Illinois, 4-0 in the blazing
Big Ten race.
Robin Freeman, the nation's
second highest scorer, highlight
ed another Big Ten game with

Fans May Throw
Custard Pies
At Wrestlers
Ashland Fans who turn out
to see real live Texas-style
wrestling and to help the March
of Dimes while being entertained
this Friday night will also have
a novel opportunity.
A few pies will be auctioned
off at the ringside after the main
event of the three-ply card at
the junior high gym under spon
sorship of Ashland Lions club.
Each pie purchaser will be
permitted to stand before the
wrestler of his choice and slap
the pie in his face. The money
from the pie auction will go to
the March of Dimes along with
the Lions' net from the matches.
Yogi May Be Victim
Predictions are that Yogi Hus
sane, the terrible Turk, will
collect most of the custard, par
ticularly since fans in Medford
have been informed of their
legal opportunity. Hussane had
the reputation of public enemy
No. 1 last year for his tactics
in Merrick's arena.
Others on the card will in
clude Lou Franco, the Roseburg
western band leader; Ken Jones,
Eugene logger and former Army
champ, and Joe Hahn, who is

New York (U.R) The New
York Knickerbockers, currently
holding down third place in the
National Basketball association's
Eastern Division, today were
contemplating a player trade

come from board funds and stu
dent fees.
The board met yesterday in
committee sessions and held its
regular meeting today.
Dr. J. F. Cramer, president
of Portland State, urged the
board not to think of his school
"as a fourth college of educa
tion" in the matter of curricula.
Dr. Kramer gave one or six
summaries presented by presi
dents of educational institutions
at the annual curriculum session,
Dr. Kramer said his faculty
was concerned over the problem
of building a curriculum within
the allocation given it. "Where
teacher education is the main
show at the college of education
it is necessarily a side attrac
tion at Portland State," he said.
H. A. Bork. comptroller of
the state system, recommended
that board and room charges
at state schools go up next year.
Room rent for multiple occu
pancy would go from $68 a
term to $75 at Oregon and Ore
gon State and from $63 to $68
at the colleges of education.
Board would rise from $47 to
$48 at all schools.

Dredge Shipped To
Reclamation Job
Alameda, Calif. (U.R) One
of the world's largest dredges
was shipped here recently by
the Utah Construction Co. to
help complete an immense land
reclamation project.
Over a period of years the ma
chine, named the "Franciscan"
by workers at a Benecia, Calif.,
manufacturing plant who built
it, will suck up and redistribute
enough sand from the bottom of
San Francisco Bay to fill in 390
acres of tidelands adjacent to
this city.
It is estimated by Utah en
gineers that more than 11,000,
000 cubic yards of sand will be
required to finish the job.
The 207 -foot -tall dredging
unit, built at a cost of $2,500,000,
has a pivot arc of 350 feet and
edges forward on the bay's sur
face by burying its 36-inch suc
tion pipe 50 feet into the under
water soil. It progresses seven
feet at a time.
Rotating cutting teeth at the
lengthy pipe's end loosen the
earth, and it is then pulled up
through the tube and transport
ed 8,700 feet via another pipe
line to where it is eventually de
posited. The pumping rate main
tained by the gargantuan soda
straw is set at 2,000 cubic yards
of sand an hour.
All this is made possible by
an 8,000-horsepower electric mo
tor, operated by one man who
sits high up on the dredge's side
in a central control tower. The
cost of running the sand-shifter's
inner workings is $40,000 a
month.
Still another expense, plan
ners say, will be to replace the
tube through which the sand
travels. Although it is forged of
three-eights-inch thick steel, the
sand's abrasive action is expect
ed to wear out three of them by
the time Utah fnishes the fill-in.
COLLECT QUESTIONNAIRES
Washington (U.R The Fish
and Wildlife Service today was
collecting questionnaires from
sportsmen on waterfowl hunting.
The survey will be used in the
preparation of hunting regula
tions for next autumn.
Your first rule should be
never to touch the iron directly
to any wool fabric, but always
use a damp pressing, cloth and
your iron only moderately hot.
Juvenile Court Advisory
Committee Discusses Site
A report on efforts of the
county court to secure a site for
he juvenile detention home,
voted by the county in 1952, was
made last night to the advisory
committee of the Jackson county
juvenile court.
Bill Abbott, chairman of the
committee, said the court as yet
has been unable to find a suit
able site for the home, although
several pieces of property have
been considered.
Sites Impractical
He reminded members that
site requirements advised by the
National Probation and Parole
association make many suggest
ed sites impractical. A "suffic
ient property" should be avail
able to insure adequate outdoor
areas, isolation from neighboring
property, and reasonable room
for future expansion, according
to a survey report made of the
county by NPPA.
It would also be best to locate
the home away from delinquen
cy areas and the local jail. It
should be set back from public
streets and conveniently near
main roads to enable easy access.

Roundfable Discusses
Off-Sfreef Parking
City Councilman Don Hansen,
chairman of the off-street park
ing committee, led a discussion
on the city parking problem at
a Jackson County Chamber of
Commerce roundtable luncheon
yesterday. Alan Pierce presided
and introduced Monte Stram,
roundtable program director for
the coming year.
Hansen explained a proposal
made recently to the Medford
city council, which suggested
an area be set aside for 170 me
tered parking spaces to serve a
12-block area in the business
district.
He compared the local propo
sals with solutions used in Cali
fornia, where larger cities are
provided with private enterprise
parking facilities and smaller
cities by public lots.
John Pletsch, former presi
dent of the chamber of com
merce, told the groub he felt the
city should study its charter,
with the aim of keeping it up-to-date
and making possible the
best kind of city government,
unhampered by an outdated
charter.

McLaren School Report

boys five nights each'week.
Miss Dana Platz, Dewey Wil
