Newspaper Page TextSPORTS Bill Darragh Sparkles for Louisville By UNITED PRESS Louisville's rivals have discov ered how to stop All-America candidate Charley Tyra, but last year's National Invitation tour nament champions keep right on winning just the same. That's because a 6-5 senior named Bill Darragh, known un til now chiefly for his defensive talents, has taken over the scor ing chores where Tyra left off. For the third straight game Dar ragh outscored Tyra Wednesday night, 28-18, and Louisville romped to a 104-67 win over Eastern Kentucky. It was the sixth straight vic tory for the Cardinals who are ranked No. 6 nationally by the United Press Board of Coaches and their 10th win in 12 starts. Hold Tyra Down Louisville foes have been ganging their defense around the 6-8 Tyra, who has averaged 23.5 points per game -and is second in rebounding in the na tion only to Wilt Chamberlain of Kansas. They haven't stopped Charley, but they've slowed him up at the expense of having Darragh break loose. Oklahoma A 4 M, No. 19 na tionally. ended a two-game los ing streak by downing Okla homa, 57-43. The Aggies won this one at the free throw line. where they caged 31 of 43 at tempts. Soph Gene Adair was the top scorer with 16 points, eight on free throws. Sanchez Dropped From OSC Plans Corvallis (U.R) Coach Tom my Prothro announced yester day that Sonny Sanchez, letter- man guard of the Oregon State football team, has been elimi nated from his plans for next season. Prothro said a "failure to de velop normal or reasonable train ing habits while being a member of the squad, was responsible for the dismissal of the former San Francisco high school star. J. Dempsey Surprised On TV Show Hollywood U.R) Former world's heavyweight champion Jack Dempsey, now a fit 61, stepped into the ring again on Wednesday night and with tears In his eyes shook hands with two of his biggest one-time riv als, Georges Carpentier, France and Luis Firpo of Argentina. The Manassa Mauler had his colorful career relived before his eyes on Ralph Edwards' "This Is Your Life" NBC tele vision program. The show or iginated from the ring of the Hollywood Legion Stadium. Carpentier, now a restaurant owner in Paris, and Firpo, a cattle rancher in Buenos Aires, were two of many program guests who brought back fond memories to the former king of the heavyweights. Surprised Gene Tunney, conqueror of the Manassa Mauler, is ill in New York and was unable to attend. However, he sent a tele gram to Jack saying he still thought of Dempsey as the cham pion and "the greatest Roman of them all." The show came as a surprise to Dempsey who had been brought to a nearby NBC studio under the pretense of viewing a closed circuit television show. But when Edwards announced "This is your life, Jack Demp sey, the sou of a Mormon school teacher was escorted into the stadium while an audience of 6,000 applauded. Protest Rejected In City League " Hawkinson Tire Treads pro test of its game with Lea Motors was not' allowed. Jack Burns, president of Medford Independ ent Basketball league, has re ported. The protest was over an eligibility matter. Team repre sentatives have agreed that no more players will be added by teams in the second half of the season. Congressmen Tie In Basketball College Park, Md. (U.R) Republican and Democratic con gressmen puffed through a basketball game of sorts Wed nesday night. It ended in a 106 106 tie. The congressmen, however, were not quite the sharpshooters the high score would indicate. Using their lawmaking powers to the limit, they gave both sides a bonus of 100 points be fore the starting whistle even sounded. v The congressmen, in another rules change, fielded nine - man teams that played three-minute halves with a two-minute brea ther, in between. Owls Defeat Red Raiders 63-60 in OCC Ashland Oregon Tech pulled Southern Oregon college into a second place knot in the Oregon Collegiate conference basketball chase last night by tripping the Raiders 63 to 60 at Klamath Falls.

The Raiders with strong out side shooting from Chuck Cran dall. Dale Bates and Norm Oliva over the Owl zone came out on top 35 to 33 in a see-saw first half. Truman Williams tied up the game at the start of the second half and John Rhine put OTI ahead to stay at 37 to 35. Points by Williams made it 40 to 35 and Oregon Tech resisted SOC pressure from there. SOC Poised SO did, however, climb to within two points at 58 to 56 and 60 to 58.

BOWLING Hoop Ruckus While poised as a team in their losing cause the Raiders were irked, as were their sup porters by a strange recording of fouls in the official book. The official recording didn't jibe with other books kept. Crandall was high scorer for the game with 22 points and Williams collected 17. It was at the free line where OTI won, making 23 of 28 tries to Southern Oregon's 18 of 27. The Red Raiders had 21 field goals to the Owls' 20.

He said this compares to the nearly 3.500 held hv tho Allise at the beginning of 1950. In a report to parliament, Brentano said 39 of the prisoners are in jails inside West Germany and ine rest are Deing held outside the country. Spring arrives variously from March 19 to March 21. Crater Trims for Friday Saturday Games With GP; Ashland Plays at Klamath Central Point Still gunning for their first victory of the sea son in Southern Oregon confer ence basketball, the Crater high Comets engage Grants Pass this week end in their third series of league play. Crater goes to Grants Pass on Friday and the Saturday night game will be at Central Point. Comet coach Jim Nau said to day that, generally speaking, the attitude of his squad is good de spite five setbacks in a row. He stated that his club is still try ing to improve as it goes along. The mentor reported that the Comets this week have been ex perimenting with a new offense to improve their scoring. Nau is also trying to find the com bination which will give Crater more point-making punch. The Comets have been lacking in such punch so far this season, particularly in firing from out side which could loosen up de fenses for better inside shooting. Improvement Seen Nau noted improvement in his team's defense last week and but mentioned that the Comets still have a long way to go, especially on the matter of fouling. The tutor indicated that his starting crew Friday may in clude Jerry Kime, Joe Teeter, Craig Cochran, Randy Campbell and John Greb. Two players who have seen considerable service, Don Goyette and Dick Davis, are on the hobbled list. Goyette suffered a deep hip bruise against Ashland last Fri day and has been unable to drill much this week. It's hoped he'll be ready to play. Davis is favor ing a bruised knee. Grants Pass, which has a chance this week to tie for loop leadership, is considered a dark horse in the race. Coach Ray Da vis has a well balanced squad this season with eight or nine players he can use interchange ably. Substitutions thereby can strengthen rather than weaken Caveman effectiveness. G P Starters Mike Sparlin and Jim Smith loom as the Caveman leading lights this season and they may be starters along with 6-5 Larry Henderson, Gary Tompkins and Home Said Place To Start Fitness Chicago U.R) Home and the backyard is the place to start building muscles and stam ina in American youth. Dr. Shane MacCarthy, head of President Eisenhower's drive for youth fitness, said Wednesday. And parents must join their youngsters at play to teach them to be strong and active, he said. MacCarthy recommended that the nation's backyards be turned into playgrounds and that many of its streets including New York's Fifth ave. be used for family sports one day a week. MacCarthy, executive direc tor of the council on youth fit ness, addressed a conference sponsored by the Roller Skat ing Foundation of America. He urged that parents build basketball courts or gym sets instead of fireplaces in their backyards and instill a love of sports and physical fitness in their children. If New York can turn Fifth ave. over to hours-long parades he said, it can give the famous thoroughfare "back to the fam ily one day a week." Other cities should do like wise, he said, and families should use the streets for cycl ing, hiking and roller skating. Cold Weather Due For Next 30 Days Washington (U.R) The Weather Bureau predicts cold weather for most of the nation for the next 30 days. In its monthly forecast, the bureau also looks for "frequent snows" in the eastern states from the Carolinas northward. It said that until mid-February, temperatures should be below normal for most of the nation, with northeastern states having the greatest sub-normal weather. It said the only area expected to have normal temperatures is the Far Southwest. The bureau said that rainfall would be above normal along the Gulf Coast and east of the Appalachian Mountains. It said the Rocky Mountain states also should have an unusually high amount of rain and snow. In the Midwest the snow and rainfall should be below normal, the bureau said. Oregon Legislature To Hear Psychiatrist Salem (U.R) Dr. William Menninger, famed psychiatrist, will address a joint - session of the Oregon Legislature here on Friday. Dr. Menninger heads the Men ninger institute, largest school in the country for training psy chiatrists. He is expected to ask for in tensified treatment of patients to provide speedier recoveries which would save the state money; Jerry Putnam. Others who may be called on for a lot of work are Chuck Rembert, Bob Fow ler, Paul Lindquist and Larry Walker. Ashland plays at Klamath Falls Friday and Saturday nights in the other conference series. The Ashlanders have arisen as definite contenders and will challenge one of the fa vorites in the league in meeting the No. 2 statewise rated Peli cans. Grizzlies of the Lithia city will aim for a series sweep which would put them on top alone in the conference. Klam ath, if it can beat Ashland twice, on the other hand, can gain a deadlock for the loop lead. Coach Earl Iba may start Jack Eberhart, Mel Dailey, Jack To biasson, Mark Fitch and Albert Hartwell for Ashland. For the Pels coach Don Peterson's choices are likely to be Cliff Sutherland, Bob Niles, Glenn Moore, Butch Kimpton and Lee McGill. Rep. Robert Steward Named Director of State Agriculture Salem - (U.R) The "Holmes team" is growing larger. In his second major appoint ment, Gov. Robert D. Holmes yesterday named state Rep. Rob ert J. Steward, eastern Oregon rancher, as director of the State Agriculture Department. More key appointments were expected in the near future. Steward, who is chairman of the important house ways and means committee, will not take over the agriculture post until the current legislative session ends. Short To Stay Until that time, James F. Short has agreed to continue as agriculture direct o s, Gov. Holmes said. Short, who offered his resig nation several weeks ago, was praised by Gov. Holmes for his fine work and record. "The decision to appoint Bob Steward for the job was based on my announced plan to pick the members of our own team to serve in key positions," Gov. Holmes said. Steward, 46, is now in his third term in the Legislature. He Oregon Educational TV One Step Nearer Portland (U.R) Oregon Is one step nearer toward the open circuit experiment in educational television. The Board of Higher Educa tion was notified yesterday by the Federal Communications commission that its application for television channel 7 in Cor vallis has been received. If approved the state board will need to raise enough money about $200,000 to match grants from various foundations. The station would link the TTnivprsitv nf Orpffon.

Man and Wife Foil Would-Be Robber Portland (U.R) A would-be holdup man was foiled by a man and his wife last night. William W. Cameron, who operates a grocery, told police a man came into the store while six customers were present and pointed a gun at his wife, Euela. Cameron, who was behind the meat counter, heard the man de mand the money and told his wife to follow the order. Then Cameron walked over to the gun man and grabbed the money back. His wife added a bop on the head from an empty cash drawer. The would-be robber dropped his gun and fled. Cameron said he had noticed that the gun was a toy pistoL CONTRACT AWARDED Salem (U.R) The State highway commission yesterday awarded a Sl.246,397 contract to C. R.
