Wednesday October 16, 1957 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE SEVEN Sport Parade By OSCAR FRALEY Sports WriHr United Preu New York I? Fraley's fol lies and the weekend football "winners" as the teams head down the backstretch with no holds barred. Game of the Week Oregon over Washington State: This is a battle which will do much toward deciding who goes to the Rose Bowl. Oregon is the pick on a s'ecl-corseted de fense which has yielded only two touchdowns in four games. The East Perm over Brown In good form. Yale over Cornell Should be close.

The Brooklyn-born fireballer iad only a 2-3 record after join ing the Braves on June 28 but was voted a full $3,924.36 share compared to the 3,i share ($6. 693.27; awarded Bob (Hurri cane)) Hazle. Milwaukee's late season slugging sensation. Hazle joined the club July 28, hit .526 for almost a month and finished with a .403 mark for 41 games. That was the only real sur prise in the distribution of the Series melon, revealed Tuesday by Commissioner Ford Frick, but even Hazle wasn't inclined to make an issue of it. McMahon'i Record Deceptive "I would like to have gotten a full share," said Hazle at his Columbia, S.C., home. "But it isn't for me to say what I should have. What the players voted is okay with me." McMahon, a red-faced 215 pound righthander, had one of the most deceptive records in baseball this year. Braves' man lier Fred Haney repeatedly called him "my club reliever" fgnd pointed to a 1.53 earned cfun average as the true measure 0 his ability. McMahon pitched ,? innings of relief without once $ftrving a home run ball an gther indication of his ability. The Braves voted 30 full jhres, including one to regular center fielder Bill Bruton, who was on the disabled list after July 11. They gave Nippy Jones, purchased late in the season from the PCL, a 3,i slice; award ed 560,000-bonus boy John De merit, who played in 33 games, a 13 share of $2,974.78, and handed 5118,000-bonus kid Bob Taylor, who appeared in only 7 games, a flat S1.000. The American league cham pion New York Yankees exhibit ed their traditional generosity when they voted 33 full shares, including one to coach Bill Dickey, who was sick all year, and another to Pete Sheehy, who put in his 30th year as the team's clubhouse boy. They also poted a full share to Traveling Secretary Bill McCorry. BOWLING CLASSIC LEAGUE Standings: W. L. Oak Knoll Golf Course 18 10 E H.

(Internataional) Fanfare By DICK JEWETT Mail Tribune Sports Editor Tom Wilson Top Ground Gainer In Pro Football Philadelphia (IP! Tommy Wilson of the Los Angeles Rams, unfettered by a college diploma, was a magna cum laude per former among the university alumni in the National Football league today. Wilson, who bypassed college and won his football experience during a service hitch, was the leading ground gainer in the league after three weeks of play with a net of 350 yards in 53 carries for a 6.6 yard average. Eddie Le Baron of Washing ton, the wee one among the NFL huskies, held the No. 1 spot among the league passers. Le Baron's top position with the passers came from average gain of 1 10.67 yards for every pass thrown, the league's method of determining the ratings. The Redskins' mighty mite complet ed 27 of 43 for a 62.8 percent age. He threw four touchdowns while gaining 459 yards and had two interceptions. Clyde Conner of the Forty niners led in pass receptions with 16 caught for 218 yards and one touchdown. Jim Mutscheller of Baltimore leads the scorers with five touch downs for 30 points, all on pass receptions. Chicago IW Quarterback Ted Marchibroda; signed as a free agent early last month, has been put on the active player list by the Chicago Cardinals. Mar chibroda completed 12 TD pass es last year while with the Pitts burgh Steelers, who named him their No. 1 draft choice in 1953. When we wondered recently why Jack Morris, ex-Medford high gridiron great, was not carrying the ball more for the University of Oregon Webfoots, we would have found the answer had we read the Duck Dope book more thoroughly. The booklet mentions that Duck Coach Len Casanova gives the fleet fullback top-flight ranking in the vital department of block ing. The importance of Morris's blocking in the Duck offense has been pointed up in stories and publications in the past couple of days. A story in the Oregon ian but originating from the university tells that the unsung Morris was described by Coach Casanova to the squad as the key to the Oregon offensive this fall. Said Cas: "Morris did the fin est job of blocking against San Jose State that I have ever seen. There's no doubt about it, Mor ris makes our offense go." Jack, despite his major assign ment as a blocker on the attack, is second in scoring and third in ground-gaining for the Ducks. George Pasero, Oregon Jour nal sports editor said in hit column concerning Morris: "Against San Jose he han dled the ends as if he owned them, making Oregon's wide stuff go ... It was Jack' block which sprung Jim Shan ley loose on his fantastic 58 yard run . . . Jack also cleared the way for three or four good gains by Left Half Charlie Tourville . . . Shanley and Tourville are quick to give Morris credit for their bril liant running of past two weeks. And when Jack does carry the ball, his ' fellow backs do their darndest to give him same kind of good blocking." BAKER UNBEATEN IN FIVE Ferd Borsh. in his Portland Oregonian Prep Patter mentions Baker among four Oregon prep football clubs unbeaten in five games this season. What should be added is that Coach Stan Smith probably has the smallest squad in the tough Blue Moun tain conference. At the last re port we had, Smith had only 22 BOUT SIGNING SET Detroit W Light-heavyweight champion Archie Moore and Chuck Spieser are sched uled to sign Oct. 23 for their January title fight in Detroit. Negotiations got beyond the talking stage Tuesday when Spieser's backers posted $10,000 with the Michigan boxing com mission $100,000 at the down papment on their $10,000 guar antee to Moore. players on his squad and was sweating out the possibility of crippling sickness and injury. Stan took over the Bulldog helm this fall after guiding Eagle Point to the A-2 state semi-finals in 1956. SPORT BACK OF WEEK East Lansing, Mich. (IP) Michigan State's "Sprinting Blacksmith," Walt Kowalczyk, was named Midwest Back of The Week by United Press today for his contribution to the 35-6 vic tory over Michigan Into the top spot in the nation. Kowalczyk netted 113 yards and one touch down in 17 carries to lead the Michigan State attack against its cross-state rival. Ducks Start Hoop Drills Eugene (IP!
