The Raiders will close their home play for the season and Dad's Day festivities will be a feature of the week end. In their earlier series at Port land the two clubs split, the Vik ings winning the first night 76 to 70, and Southern Oregon the second, 57 to 55. First place virtually has been wrapped up in the OCC by Ore gon Tech but the Raiders and Vikings still have lots at stake. Southern Oregon, which has won cnly two of its last 10 games with- the Vikings, needs a pair of verdicts to win a berth in the state's National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics tourna ment. PSC, itself has an outside chance to gain the tourney, needs a series sweep to keep alive hopes of defending the title it won last year. Vikings Aggressive Coach Sharkey Nelson will bring a young and aggressive PSC basketball team into Ash land this week end. In center Ced Aichele, and forwards Jack Parker, Ed Thompson, Bill Jones and Eugene Cox, the "Staters" will have enough height to match that of the Red and Black Red Raiders. Guards Jim Perkins and Johnny Win ters will keep the Vikings driv ing with their tremendous speed and playmaking ability. Starting for the Red Raiders before the Dads Day guests will be the usual line-up employed by coach Ted Schopf. Bill Holl ingsworth and Norman Oliva, both suffering from the flu bug last week, will open at the for ward posts with Dave D'OIivo at center, and among Dale Bates, Chuck Crandall. or Jim McAbee at the guards. Also slated to see hoop action are Don Lowrance, Ted Tenney, Johnny Foust and Ronnie Owings. Although Nelson's defending champion Vikings are lodged in fourth spot, the Vikings can't be taken lightly by the Red Raiders. Southern Oregon stumbled a notch last week-end' in Mon mouth when the Oregon Col lege Wolves clipped it 56-43, in one of the OCC's lowest scoring games of the season'. Black Heads Texas Open San Antonio, Tex. (U.R) Near-sighted Joe Ed Black, a 23-year-old rookie pro from Abi lene. Tex., who has never been in the money, nursed a one stroke lead and was seven-under-par 64 as the second round of the $20,000 Texas Open Golf tournament started today. The pressure was hot and heavy behind him as he teed off among the early starters to day. Veteran Ed Furgol of St. An drews, 111., and another un known. Bob Kay of West Hart ford, Conn., were a stroke back with 65s; and such talented cam paigners as Johnny Palmer, Jim my Demaret and Jimmy Walkup and young Wesley Ellis Jr., were only two strokes off the pace, with 66s. A dozen players were bracket ed along with Cary Middlecoff at 67, including three young col legiate amateurs Rex Baxter and Frank Wharton of the Uni versity of Houston and Juan Es trada, a North Texas State stu dent from Torreon, Mexico. In this group also were top money winner Doug Ford, Julius Boros, Billy Maxwell, Fred Hawkins and Ernie Vossler. William P. Kyne Close To Death San Francisco (U.R) Wil liam P. Kyne, 69. general man ager of Bay Meadows Race track, lay close to. death today as a result of a liver ailment. The sports promoter, who has been ill for seven weeks, sank into a coma Thursday. Dr. Emile Torre said Kyne "is suffering from an inflammatory liver and his chances of coming out of the coma are very slight." Kyne entered St. Francis hos pital for treatment shortly after Christmas then returned last Tuesday after being out for two weeks.

SATURDAY, FEB. 15: No games because of district wres tling tournament. New York (U.R) Grady Wallace, hottest of the three arch-rivals in that blazing battle for the national basketball scor ing championships, gets his chance to regain the No. 1 spot tonight. The six-foot, five-inch South Carolina star currently stands third in official figures confirm ed by the NCAA today, but 36 points against Virginia tonight would move him right to the top ahead of Chet Forte of Colum bia and Wilt Chamberlain of Kansas. Forte, the five-foot, nine-inch "Jet," has an average of 30.18 points per game to hold the edge on his two Goliath rivals. Cham berlain, who had been in front all season until Feb. 6. now stands second at 29.94 and then comes Wallace at 29.90. After Wallace gets his shot to night, the others play Saturday Forte against Dartmouth and Chamberlain against Missouri. Fort Best Free Tosser There's no secret to Forte's success the hard-driving little Lion draws many fouls and is the nation's best free throw shooter. He's canned .898 per cent of his charity attempts, compared to .893 for Jackie Mur dock of Wake Forest and .892 for Dave Ricketts of Duquesne, who recently set a major-college rec ord of 42 straight. Ray Downs of Texas has a hairline lead in basket shooting with a .5714 shooting average to .5709 for Al Inniss of St. Francis of Brooklyn. Chamberlain remains the re bound ieader with .261 percent age to .240 for Alex Boo Ellis of Niagara. Forte's 45 points Wednesday against. Pennsylvania enabled Columbia to regain the national team scoring lead with an aver age of 87.5 points per game to 87.2 for West Virginia. The Oklahoma Aggies, peren nial defense champions, are on top again in that department with an average of 53.2 points allowed per game to 53.5 for California. Bill Setting To Educate Up Fund Gifted Children Under Study Salem (U.R) A bill appropri ating S50.000 to the superin tendent of public instruction to set up a program for educating specially gifted children was be fore the joint ways and means committee today. A recommendation of "do pass" was given the bill by the House Education Committee yes terday. The group also dis cussed a controversial bill which would enable the superintendent to refuse to issue or to revoke teaching certificates of any per son convicted of a felony or a sex crime. No action was taken on the sex crime bill. Also going to ways and means with the "do pass" recommenda tion of the House Highways Committee was the bilL appro priating $450,000 in highway funds for design of a new bridge across the Columbia river at As toria. The $34 million bridge would be constructed jointly by Ore gon and Washington. Witnesses previously testified before the highway committee that the bridge was a necessity for the economy of northwestern Ore gon and would benefit the whole state. Sex Bill Draws Fir At the education meet, Cecil Posey of the Oregon Education Association said the education ot gifted children was the most promising and most challenging in education today. Onlv ODDOsitinn to tho hill was voiced by Rep. Keith Skel- ion, tugene Democrat, who fa vored the idea but doubter! the wisdom of starting a program while the state was in the midst of a "recession." The bill askins m anrlafnrv rtv. VOkintf Of tparhprc' port if inQidp in cases of felonies or sex crimes arew some committee fire be cause feloniPS inMlirla4 iniml.m- tary manslaughter and other crimes involving negligence. Jim Turnbull of the sta He. partment of education said the Din was aimed mainly at pre venting sex criminals from iMuung. ne sam mere were only "three or four" such cases in Oregon involving teachers last year, none of them i children. Detroit To Be Home of Pistons Detroit (U.R) Fred Zollner, a Hoosier with faith in Detroit's reputation of being the "best sport town in the country," Thursday affirmed that his Ft. Wayne Pistons of the National Basketball association will switch to Detroit this fall. The move requires only the formal approval by the NBA's board of governors. Zollner said he already had contacted the board members and they unani mously approved. The vote will be taken during the April meeting. Jim Lounsberry Takes Washington State Post Pullman, Wash.
