Knox Ends
Brief Stay
With 'Cats
Hamilton, Ont. (U.R) Ron
nie Knox and his outspoken step
father, Harvey, today ended a
brief but noisy month of profes
sional football with the Hamil
ton Tiger-Cats on a sour note.
It wasn't exactly clear wheth
er Ronnie was fired or quit.
Hamilton declared the much pub
licized quarterback had been dis
missed while stepfather Harvey
said "Ronnie is leaving because
they didn't use him enough and
then only as a gate attraction."
Thus ended the loudly herald
ed professional football career
of the gifted youngster, who re
portedly signed a contract that
called for $1,000 a game. Ronnie,
who with the "help" of Harvey
has made more off-field head
lines than any collegian in re
cent years, looked both very bad
and very good during his brief
appearances as quarterback of
the Tiger-Cats.
Coach Jim Trimble, former
Philadelphia Eagle coach, said
the younger Knox would not re
turn to the team "under any
circumstances," after the 21-year
old Californian violated his two
year contract by falling to re
port for practice Wednesday
night.

Crater Said 'Ready1
For Caveman Ruckus
Central Point "They're
ready. They're going to do the
best they can do." That was the
comment today by Coach Leon
ard Warren as the Crater high
Comets faced their first football
action in District 6 A-l.
They oppese Grants Pass here
Friday evening in a Southern
Oregon conference ruckus. It
will tf the first full varsity grid
contention between the two
schools who have met previous
ly on the basketball court, the
baseball diamond and track oval
and field.
Grants Pass will be the favor
ed club because of its long ex
perience against tougher com
petition but the Comets could
be entering the tussle much un
derrated. They have some size
able, capable linemen and a
backfield that is on near par
with the Cavemen. Main lack of
the Crater club is depth.
Little Changs
Warrep indicated that his
starting line-up will show but
little change from prrvious com
bats this season. Gerald Kime
and Carl Koellner are likely
ends with Fred Herrman prob
ably to see much action. Tackle
berths will be filled from among
Dick Davis, Dave Parker and
Bill Morse and guards from
among Roger Seaman, Morse
and Dick Rainey with Don Hub
bard possibly seeing duty. Neil
Green is the possible center.
In the backfield Wayne Allen
may be at quarterback, George
Juveland at left half, Allen
Barnes at right half and Don
Goyette at fullback.
Hubbard, has missed practices
because of work this week. Ron
Harrison, a halfback has been
hampered by a pulled muscle.
Grants Pass may have as high
as 11 letternen in its starting
offensive unit against the
Comets. Gary Tompkins and
Mike Sparlin may be at ends
for coach Mel Ingram's Cave
men with Larry Walker and
Larry Thompson at tackles.
Gary Hadsell is expected to be
at one guard and either Bob
Allerheiligen or Doug Smith at
guard. Allerheiligen suffered a
kidney bruise last week at
Marshfield. Smith or Dick Cald
well will be at center.
All the foregoing linemen are
lettermen with exception of
Sparlin, who has jayvee exper
ience, and Caldwell.
In the backfield Stan Lewman
or Jim Smith could alternate
with Lewman probably starting.
Chuck Lasher may open at left
half with Roger Taylor also see
ing service at that slot. Norris
Conner may be at right half
with Don Lewellyn as possible
alternate. Mike Rose may open
at full with Jack Dean or Dennis
Eckstein as likely replacements.
Smith and Lewellyn are non
lettermen. Lasher won his letter
last year at Beaverton and Con
ner his at a California school.
Conner and Eckstein are the
heaviest of the backs at 176 and
181 pounds each but Eckstein is
expected to see most of his duty
on defense as an end or line
backer. Conner missed the
Marshfield trip because of a
knee infection and Rose saw
service on only a few plays be
cause of a calf bruise.
Lewman and Taylor saw most
of the playing on defense last
year and again are expected to
be used in that part of aze game.
Dick Graves, 265, and Nathan
Graves, 270, are generally in
the middle of a Grants Pass six
man defensive line. When the
forward wall shifts to five men,
Paul Slaven can be expected be
tween the Graves brothers. Phil
Paquin is a defensive end. The
Graves are monogram wearers.

Ike, Nixon Said
Indifferent To
Small Business
Belleville, 111. (U.R) Dem
ocratic vice presidential candi
date Estes Kefauver said today
that the Eisenhower - Nixon ad
ministration has been indiffer
ent to both the small farmer and
the small businessmen.
"The Republican Party, the
Eisenhower - Nixon administra
tion, has taken its stand behind
the forces of monopolies and the
giant corporations," he said in a
speech prepared for delivery at
a court house square rally here.
"And if left alone to continue,
they will ultimately achieve the
destruction of small - business
and the small farm as independ
ent economic entities in Ameri
can life."
Kefauver's speech here start
ed a strenuous day of politick
ing folksy talks and hand
shaking by auto in a 250-mile
swing through normally Repub
lican southern Illinois. The
schedule included two news con
ferences and 10 court house
square and street corner rallies
here and at Pinckneyville,
Murphysboro, Herrin, West
Frankfort, Harrisburg, Fairfield,
Flora, Salem and Mt. Vernon.
Kefauver said the Eisenhow
er administration is dominated
by a group of retired millionaires
and big corporation executives.
"And these people have con
fused their own economic pre
judices with the national inter
est," he added.
Pirates Play
Douglas on
Friday Night
Phoenix Infections suffered
by two players and drop outs
of three others, one because of
an old injury hampered the
Phoenix high Pirates this week
as they looked toward their
football game with Douglas
here on Friday night.
End Pete Boehm has an in
fected toe and may not play and
back Larry Blunt is bothered
by boils and may see little serv
ice. The dropouts and the ail
ments take much of the size
away from the Pirate eleven.
Against Douglas the Pirate
single wing will be up against
a T spread attack. The Douglas
team boasts a wide open offense
with good passing.
Starters for Phoenix Friday,
according to coach Jack Wood
ward, may be Jim James and
Archie Trott, ends; Jack Renn
and Jim Waldron, guards, Mar
vin Frazier and Larry Kidwell,
tackles; Rob Daugherty, center,

Seems our young man called
the guardhouse and told them to
phone the company orderly room
at four in the morning and asked
for Manaut-Billefranque. He
wanted to be sure of a wake-up,
so he could stir the cooks and
others out of the shucks.
"They called, all right," our
man with the long name says,
and asked me to wake up Man
uat, Billy and Frank.' If I had
told them my whole name, they
probably would have asked for
Pierre and Francois, too. All
they wanted to wake up was
me."
When Pierre was in school he
cut his name short and called
himself "Peter Manaut." Then
nosey folks would check his
birth certificate or driver's li
cense, and wouldn't believe he
was the same guy.
The Army is a little tough. It
demands a full name. As of now
that is a little difficult. In order
to get paid, for example.
"I have been having a heckuva
time learning to write small
enough to get the whole name
on the pay roster each month,"
he says. "They won't let you go
on the second line, you know."-
The young man has no idea of
changing his name any part of
it.
"I kind of like it," he says.
"It's distinctive."
Anyway his buddies call him
"Pete."

Wood May Be Relics Or Coos Bay Sinking
Coos Bay, Ore. (U.R) Some
pieces of heavy timber dredged
up in Charleston Slough near
here have stirred speculation
they might be relics from one
of two sailing vessels which
sank In Coos Bay in 1856 and
1869.
The timbers, with brass and
bronze fittings, wooden pegs
and square nails, were dredged
up by the Corps of Engineers
working on the new Charleston
small boat basin in the lower
bay.
Victor West Jr., North Bend,
Ore., an authority on shipwrecks
and sinking along the Oregor.
coast, has old government maps
dating back to 1862 which show
positions of two vessels wrecked
in the bay.
The brig Ida D. Rogers, built
in Essex, Conn.; in 1859, went
down in Coos bay in 1869. The
map shows she sank near the
mouth of Charleston Slough.
The other ship was the Jack
son, which struck a rock inside
the bar entrance and sank in
1856.
West is of the opinion the
parts brought up by the en
gineers could have been from
either vessel.
